Bumpin Relapse Refill -- aged well and dope in retrospect, never liked it before

(1/3) > >>

TraceOneInfinite:
Refill version is a lot better because it has joints like "Careful What You Wish For" and "My Darling" help a lot to make it more personal like his old joints

...but overall the album is aging well compared to what a letdown it was when it dropped

TraceOneInfinite:
I'm bumping this on shuffle with the Refill version.. shit's bumping pretty well, never liked the album before, but now I'm finally getting what Eminem was trying to do with it.  I wondered if he was even serious when it came out

TraceOneInfinite:
Holy shit this "Hell Breaks Loose" track is bananas!!!  How did it not make the o.g album, maybe it was recorded late?

Sccit:
u probably just skimmed through it when u were in a negative mindset first time around


better late than never

true but I honestly didn't get where Eminem was coming from on the album and didn't know whether or not to take it seriously

...so I didn't really know how to take the album, and wasn't as open-minded as I might of been in the past because like you said, my mood was not open to it. 

But that's why some albums age better than others, because we have expectations and want it to sound a certain way, and can't take it for what it is/was.  But now we've heard Revival and all his newer shit so to go back and listen to Relapse it sounds like Illmatic in comparison to today's rap.  After all, 2008 when it dropped, hip-hop was only a year or two away from baggy jeans
