--- Quote from: Action! on June 14, 2010, 09:54:59 PM ---I will not argue that Recovery's content is more digestible or relateable but to say Relapse had no content is wrong.
3 A.M: return of Shady, Eminem's alter ego that promotes self-destructive habits
My Mom: review of his mother but instead of completely blaming her he attempts to relate to her issues because he sees how he is like her
Insane: a story of being raped by his father (I don't know how true any of this is. I know he said it's not real but one must wonder. Maybe it's a metaphor for the lack of a father figure in his life.)
Bagpipes From Baghdad: Mariah Carey & Nick Cannon diss
Hello: discussion of his drug addiction and the creation of shady
Same Song and Dance: a story about killing pop stars (a review of his disses against pop icons)
Medicine Ball: controversial lyrics for attention
Stay Wide Awake: the craziness of his mind
I can go on but each record has a concept and is about something, even if you can't relate to it. The major difference I see in content is that on Recovery it's more a tell all situation where he doesn't use metaphors and assumes the consumer is too stupid to follow along. Hence, instead of letting you assume he's talking about hip-hop on 25 to Life he tells you he's talking about hip-hop.

Let's not act as if this were some high-advanced methaphours with some deep meaning you just listed. It's basically just a story of him being fucked up in various ways.
Be careful what you wish for and My Darling are better content-wise in my opinion, cause he is actually is going into details on why he is fucked up.
Yes, he makes it more obvious, like in the end on 25 to life, a lot of rappers do that, e.g. Nas on that song where he's a gun

I dunno what you guys are talking about, I copped this today and after 1½ listens I think this is up there with The Eminem Show. Shit is dooope!
EDIT: The only part the singing is wack is You're never over. Didn't even notice him singing as much as I thought he would. The beats are fresh!

Agreed. For the most part I thought the singing was alright. It didn't work on that one, though. I think he should have found an actual singer to do the hook for that one.

Anything else would do, one of the worst dedication tracks in hip hop
