The sudden Encore love

[Cinderella Stan]

I agree Recovery is better. I can agree Encore is Em's worst too. But that doesn't change the fact that Encore is not a bad album.

[Crazee]

It's terrible by Eminem's standards, but it's not like there aren't any decent concepts or rhyme schemes. Big Weenie wouldn't even be hated if not for ...the title. The concept is interesting. Recovery is obviously better, though.

Encore makes me laugh though, and I kind of miss goofy, funny Eminem. He really hasn't been funny since his comeback, IMO. Relapse had it's moments, but it was mostly just amusing not funny. His first three albums mixed some humor in. It's why I liked his music so much.

[Satan]

Sucks so bad. The praised songs are just bland tasteless ramblings (Never Enough, Mockingbird, Yellow Brick Road, Toy Soldiers), and the other two praised songs are just...no (Rain Man, Puke).

[Trimss]

The lows on recovery are just as bad as encore but the highs are better than encore....still encore isn't a terrible album.

No they're not homie.. Think again. The lows on Encore are abysmal.

[Satan]

Seriously, how can anyone like Puke?

[Trimss]

It's catchy I guess..

[Satan]

It's catchy I guess..

Yeah, but "I HOPE YOU GO TO HELL AND SATAN STICKS A NEEDLE IN YOUR EYE!!

Seriously as immature as Big Weenie.

[Notalius]

Seriously, how can anyone like Puke?

liking and thinking it's good is a different story

Encore is complete shit.

[Trey]

Relapse is quite appreciated in here. And Encore gets too much undeserved hate if you ask me, it is obviously not a masterpiece and it is below Em standards, but it is far from terrible, some rappers never get to make an album this good in their careers tbh (Lil Wayne imo).

[SliK]

Encore > Relapse

[SajN]

Damn. I didn't know you hated Relapse that much.

[Cinderella Stan]

Relapse > Encore + Recovery

MMLP >>>>> anything

Agreed. But also:

Consider MMLP, TES, SSLP, Encore, Relapse, Recovery, Infinite are constants (doesn't change with time)

Assume (in worst case) MMLP = Relapse + Encore + Recovery + Infinite

and TES + SSLP > Relapse + Encore + Recovery + Infinite

=> TES + SSLP > MMLP

But TES = Relapse + Recovery

and SSLP = Relapse + Recovery

=> 2*Relapse + 2* Recovery > MMLP

=> 1/2 MMLP < Relapse + Recovery

=> Recovery < Relapse - 1/2 MMLP

Rearranging: Relapse > Recovery + 1/2 MMLP

Proved.

Alternative solution:

Relapse > Recovery + Encore (like Bigray stated)

But 1/2 MMLP > Encore (from previous equations)

=> Relapse > Recovery + 1/2 MMLP

Correct

[Cinderella Stan]

Thanks. And I had to write it 5 times till I got it right, lol.

Nah Wayne (When he could actually rhyme) had better albums than Encore.

[Notalius]

Nah Wayne (When he could actually rhyme) had better albums than Encore.

Lil Wayne couldn't flow like Em did on My 1st Single.

Seriously, Wayne is easily the most overrated rapper of all fucking time.

Wayne was good before the carter 4 .. saying otherwise is ignorant.
