None. Relapse and Recovery both have bright spots, but there are glaring flaws that bring both projects down. Encore is one of the worst albums put out by a credible lyricist ever, and MMLP2 is solid.

4 out of 7 ain't bad.

Encore still had some good shit, it had some horrible shit though too. It was decent. 4 tracks were HORRIBLE. But the rest wasn't too bad.

Relapse and Recovery had low spots, weren't as low as Encore though, and had plenty of good spots. They were good/solid albums IMO.

MMLP2 has a couple low spots, but the overwhelming majority is dope. 18/21 tracks were great, real good, good, or solid. It's a very good album.

That mood and atmosphere Eminem had on his first four albums will never be reproduced, ever again.

That's the one good part about Encore. Even though he was babbling like an idiot, the production and overall way he approached the content was the closest we got to an "Eminem" album.

Tragic portrait of an artist tortured
Trapped in his own drawings

But in my head there’s a voice in the back and it hollas
After the track is demolished
I am your lack of a conscience

I’m your time that’s almost up that you haven’t acknowledged
Grab for some water but I’m that pill that’s too jagged to swallow

Relapse but definitely not on here.
Fuck top five, bitch, I'm top four
And that includes Biggie and Pac, whore
And I got an Evil Twin
So who the fuck do you think that third and that fourth spot's for?

I think he recaptured that with 90% of MMLP2. It sounds like Eminem again, in the sense that the songs sound unique to him. You wouldn't hear Jay or Nas on records that Em was on back in the day. The same applies to most all of MMLP2.

Also this. While I have done my fair share of Recovery hating, I actually don't dislike Recovery and find it massively underrated and too hated on this forum. But outside of this forum Relapse is the most underrated by far.

Actually... MMLP is pretty underrated by most general rap fans.

People call it a dope album but it really doesn't get its due for being so conceptually amazing, and the artistic heights it pushed things toward. It's so much more than just a 'great album'...

And I don't see it mentioned that often by 'heads when mentioning all-time albums. Partially I think because they feel cooler in hating Eminem now / don't want to sound predictable by mentioning one of his albums, but MMLP is absolutely right up in that top 5 zone. Incredible work.

But you wouldn't agree that his MOST underrated work is Relapse?

I agree with you though, people don't give MMLP enough credit.
