Is MMLP2 better than GKMC?

[ganjakush56]

The Marshall Mathers LP 2 is a monumental album - it is fucking monsterous at parts, calm at others; it becomes an in depth examination of the mind of Eminem on a grand psychological platform at some parts. It is the perfect and natural step forward from the original Marshall Mathers LP. It is almost as if Relapse, Recovery were merely subliminal warm ups to this album - Relapse and Recovery were merely exercises to warm up the muscles so to speak. This album is the beginning of a new era and return to the original form at the same time - it is, in its entirety, the culmination of everything that is Eminem one way or another.

There is no doubt that this is the best hip hop album of 2013. Jay-Z's effort was sub par; Yeezus was an overall let down; Born Sinner was solid; Run the Jewels was excellent; Drake's album represented the regurgitation of his last two albums - meaning, there was no growth; stagnancy in an artists evolution is not a good thing and lowers the overall quality of the album. MMLP2 is incredible. GKMC and Life Is Good were hip hop's highlights in 2012, besides albums like Cancer 4 Cure; many agree that GKMC took the spot for future classic and best hip hop album of 2012. Which one is better though? Kendrick's or Eminem's?

Let's have an in depth discussion about this...

Well yeah in my opinion.

[SliK]

Fuck no

[77o77]

Not to take anything away from Kendrick but yes.

[TRSL]

Hell no.

[ganjakush56]

People are saying no and people are saying yes but why? What is your reasoning? I am curious. This shit is very important.

[SliK]

Guess what, MBDTF is better too

[Kill You]

Because Eminem is better to me, I like the music better, and a few songs on GKMC I have to skip. On MMLP2 I don't have to skip a single song. I do skip songs but I can sit there and listen to the album without skipping. GKMC wasn't quite like that for me but it was close.

[Catastrophic]

Never heard GKMC album, so can't say.

MBDTF was not better than GKMC or MMLP2 imo

[EriCartman]

MMLP2 is above everything else.
It is a revisit to the immature days that manages to show an incredible growth from a iconic artist.
MMLP is one of the greatest albums in history of mankind, so if He was able to create a worthy sequel in 2013, that shows how good of an album that really was.

The lyrics are out of this world.
Marshall you did it man. You are 41, and your fire hasn't expired. You still are the greatest rapper alive and I am happy I could witness it.
I salute youre greatness.

Yes it is "imo"

[Kill You]

You should listen to it because it's great.

Although I was surprised Em could still make this album, GKMC is one of the best albums of the past decade imo. It's a lot more cohesive than MMLP2, doesn't have shitty pop tracks, and Kendrick takes you on a real dope trip through his life. It's an example by how an album should be made.

GKMC is a 10/10 album.
MMLP2 is a 8/10 album.

But still MMLP>GKMC though.
