This might be the best rhymed album of the last few years, with some tracks who truly have substance, and y'all diss the lyrics? No wonder noone really spits anymore, with a fanbase like this.

You ain't listening to hip-hop if you think this is the best rhymed cd in the past couple of years.

You're disagreeing? You think at least 1 of those 3 albums are "Great" albums aka above average? Which ones?Yes, Relapse. Relapse is art to me. It's like listening to a good horror film full of humorous moments, sometime actually like a black comedy film with emotional moments with Beautiful, Deja Vu and Careful What You Wish For.The beats are next level, I've never heard anything as polished as Same Song And Dance or Underground. At the same time very simplistic but at the same time made with an extremely good eye for detail, innovative sound even incorporating choir sound. All beats are extremely different, yet coherent.The lyrics are the craziest, sickest shit ever, spit in a technically flawless and intricate way. Stay Wide Awake is a perfect example.The album had weak point. The accent. But look at it in the context and you'll get over it. That is the reason why I just brought up artists you listen too in my last post, too lazy to write a reply like this one. My point is: You are as brainwashed as the people you call brainwashed, I bet you like every song Budden releases.I secretly hoped you would understand that artists like Joe Budden, Ja Rule, The Lox and Saigon are in no way ever better than Eminem and have never made any album better than Relapse, recently.Joe Budden? A dude with the most boring nasal voice who can't find a beat to save his life rapping more than 5 minutes about how depressed he is. No charisma either. No polished sound either.Ja Rule could be considered the best out of those artists, but even from that point of view it's difficult to deny how he contributed to the decline of rap 10 years ago with his bullshit singing and selling out. The Lox? Rapping about street life they don't live since at least 2 decades , on stereotypical NY beats with punchlines thrown here and there? Let's not even talk about Saigon.

After Relapse I made a list of things Eminem should do to make "Relapse 2" even better (I really like Relapse). Let's see how he fared:1. Drop the accentsReason: We all hate them. Eminem is seemingly the only one not realising how much they suck.Result: Yes, indeed. Eminem came to his senses - they're gone.2. Make shorter songsReason: Eminem albums tend to tiring because the songs are too goddamn long. You should leave the listener wanting more, not feeling fed up. Just like that Game 400 bars jam, that noone listened to in full. Some songs are long for a good reason (like "Stan"), but the vast majority of Eminem songs would be better in shorter form. Part of the charm of "Insane" on Relapse is that it is short. Had that gone on for another 2 minutes everyone would have hated it.Result: Nope. Songs are still way too long. A full five tracks are 5 minutes or more, which is ridiculously long for a hip-hop track unless you have a ton of features, which Eminem doesn't.3. Get outside productionReason: We all love Dre's production. Less so with Eminems own production. But everybody needs to grow and challenge themselves. Let's hear Eminem flow on a Just Blaze beat, an Alchemist beat, a Havoc beat, a Khalil beat, a J.R.Rotem beat, a Kanye beat, etc.Result: Yes, indeed, he followed suit. But you would think that he would have hotter beats given that I'm sure every hip-hop producer in the fuckin' world would kill to get on an Eminem album. Production is surprisingly average on Recovery.4. Don't sing, ever! Get proper singers to do the singing.Reason: Eminem is arguably the worst singer in the entire world. Yet he somehow thinks that he can sing. Let me put it this way: if I had to pick between the accent and the singing I would....kill myself.Result: Eermmm....what the hell is he thinking? Instead of cutting down on singing, there's singing fuckin' EVERYWHERE on Recovery. This is gonna be the "accent issue" with this album. You have to wonder where Eminem's sense of reality is. First the accents, now the singing. Why is Dr.Dre - the most notorious perfectionist in the game - not telling Eminem that the accents suck and that singing is bad?5. Keep varying the flowReason: One of the impressive things about Relapse is the variety of flows. Had he dropped the accents it would have been near perfect.Result: Unfortunately Eminem has decided to rap almost exclusively in his "angry" voice. This gets very tiring on a whole album. He needs to switch it up.
