^are you high?read my original post, i was reviewing The Slim Shady LP lol.
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 habitsMy 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 herInsane: 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 dissHello: discussion of his drug addiction and the creation of shadySame Song and Dance: a story about killing pop stars (a review of his disses against pop icons)Medicine Ball: controversial lyrics for attentionStay Wide Awake: the craziness of his mindI 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.
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!

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.

Lyrically, he was weaker on Relapse & he had weaker songs throughout. Recovery he only had 2-3.
