So, originally brand new dance came before my 1st single on encore. It makes my 1st singles first verse make a lot more sense.

It’s why he starts by rapping that the horses just came out of the stable and raps about Christopher reeves wanting revenge in that first verse

Also I just caught the wordplay with “of course we’re about to stir up/stirrup”

encore had so much potential

it's still great

Love Encore but my Em bias and nostalgia aside it's terrible musically besides a few gems but man if it didn't leak

Verses are A1 but that hook is horrendous

I love it as well no lie. at the end of the day the satirical self sabotage schtick he does on the album is unique in its way. there's nothing quite like it for better or worse

no wonder artists like Danny Brown claim it's their favorite Em album

always saw encore as Eminem's punk album

It's truly a time capsule of his career that i always find interesting album is such a fun listen even if it's all over the place had it way lower ranked in his discog for awhile now but the past few months prepping for the new album n going back through his discog in order it's def moved up for me but no matter where it ranked it's always truly been a fun enigma of a listen

Was at the peak of his addiction n just knowing most of what transpired while making it and what happened post Encore pre Relapse i can see the vision

If you cut out some filler it's just as good as the first 3 albums.

But I appreciate him having it because I just like listening to eminems goofiness.

If he really wants perfection he should do like a 10-11 song album. But I appreciate what I get from him. I just never understood why he always makes long projects

Damn. It makes so much sense now lmao

Sslp - 10/10
Mmlp - 10/10
The Eminem Show - 10/10
Encore - 7.5/10
Relapse - 9/10
Recovery - 7/10
Mmlp 2 - 6.5/10
Revival - 3/10
Kamikaze -7.5 /10
Mtmb - 7/10
TDOSS - 9/10

Roadrage with that Kamikaze flow

BTW I need a 100k/year job if you have openings

Not even close

I can’t believe I just realized trouble and GC2 are the same beat

Concept album

I love that he directly connects the Shady persona to his death

Looking through MMLP2 there were so many meh tracks

So much better, Survival, Legacy, A******, Berzerk, Stronger than I was, The Monster, So far, Love game are all meh to me

Fuel is perfect

The beat, the verses, the flows, it's a 10/10 song

miss this kinda humor from Em these days. this is hilarious

Got nightmares, goin’ Freddy on me
’Cause they steady haunt me

Really missed these catchy lil flows from his music
