Title: How come Eminem never bigs up the Bass Brothers?
Post by: TraceOneInfinite Flat Earther 96' on April 06, 2011, 09:30:39 AM
I heard him in past interviews from the MMLP days mention them, but not much since then.  All these dudes did to contribute to his career, you would think more would be said about them.

Jeff Bass is still around as far as I know. He get's credit for additional production all the time.

And "Beautiful" was also the only standout cut on the album, other than possibly De-Ja-Vu

Deja vu was my favorite off the album...beautiful could've been on recovery...it just didnt fit on this album...not saying it was a bad track

they produced king gordy's "the entity" album with eminem's help... very very good album... even luis resto and steven king credited...
they produced jem's "down to earth". a pop rock album but im sure you will love their productions...

they are still working together on some projects but not oftenly as before...
and that is why eminem couldnt make a classic album after "the eminem show"...

One of the best albums ever.. I put that up there with "No One Can Do It Better", "The Chronic" and "Doggystyle".

relapse was a classic and one of ems best...real dark sinister album and in the future the critics will look back on it and say it was genius. mark my words.

i never seen all the hype about the accents...his delivery and word play on those songs was among the best in his catalog and he was spitting about some wild shit.

im pretty sure that the general consensus amongst real hip-hop heads is that relapse is nowhere near eminems best material.

its a personal preference maybe but in the future watch ppl start using relapse and words liked slept on, under rated etc. in the same sentence.

im not saying its as good as mmlp but its close imo he took it back to that wreckless i dont give a fuck era em on some of them tracks.

very well written album but the accents draw away from that sort of but imo accents >>>screaming

Hell yeah.. I'd rate Eminem's albums like:

1. Slim Shady LP/Marshall Mathers LP/Devil's Night/Relapse

2. Infinite/The Eminem Show


3. Recovery/Encore/D12 World

Songs such as "Deja Vu", "Stay Wide Awake" and "Must Be The Ganja" are the shit.. only a couple songs in the middle of Relapse are the ones I don't like.. and the skits.

If it was so great, then why does Eminem say himself that it was wack?
Title: Re: How come Eminem never bigs up the Bass Brothers?
Post by: Sir Petey on April 19, 2011, 03:45:55 PM
because he was in a bad place when alot of that music was created and he was taking alot of flack for the accents...

he was just beginning the recovery process...it was a dark album.

the sequencing and the choice of singles are the only thing missing from that album.

i don't think it was trash, i just think it was mediocre compared to his classic material, and a huge letdown for an album exclusively produced by dre

Post by: 7even on April 20, 2011, 11:55:56 AM
at the end of the day it excites me that he released two so damn different albums over such a short period of time.. relapse and recovery are nothing alike, show me a rapper who brought out two completely different albums during a span of about a year...
however it pisses me off that he didn't release most of the tracks he did when he was completely fucked up, cause i thought my darling, careful what you wish for and beautiful were all superdope

If it was so great, then why does Eminem say himself that it was wack?

He said it so some of his ''fans'' would buy the album (those besides the wiggers and teen girls who would buy it anyways, especially after watching the ''Love The Way You Lie'' video).

You have to analyze art independently from the artist's own opinion. Just because an artist says his shit is good/bad doesn't make it good/bad.

Recovery had some very good beats and subject matter, unfortunately it felt ''artificial'' and forced. The most adequate word to describe the album would be corny, on all aspects. Also, there was too much yelling which was even more unbearable because of the corniness it was coupled with.

Relapse was uniform, yet very diverse. It had a cohesive sound because the production was handled by just one producer, but it also had creative songs like My Darling and 3am, incredible storytelling and flow like Stay Wide Awake, motivational songs such as Beautiful and sad songs like Deja Vu. The mixing and overall beat selection was incredible too.
It is probably not a classic in the conventional sense of the word, or throughout music history...but during the last few years of our musical climate's utter wackness it was a breath of fresh air. An artist of his magnitude even releasing such an avant-garde project is something quite amazing.
