This EP is still the best eminem project since The Eminem Show/8 Mile era to me. Lyrics are venomous the production is a MAJOR improvement from Recovery. This might be the best Royce project since Death Is Certain to me as well. Its a personal classic I'd give it a 9.5/10. This is vintage shady flat out. Yes I would put it above relapse lyrically and recovery lyrically as well. It's really not even close. I remember the day fast lane came out and I hadn't been as excited for an Eminem project as much as I was like that since 2002. Shit its probably even better than Devils night. Skill level eminem was equal on DN and H:TS but give me Royce over anyone in D12. If I had to rank each eminem/bad meets evil/d12 album it would be like this
1. MMLP-10/10
2. SSLP-9.9/10
3. TES 9.9/10
4. Hell: The sequel 9.5/10
5. 8 mile soundtrack 9/10
6. Devils night 9/10
7. The slim shady EP- 8/10
8. Relapse 8/10
9. Recovery 7.5-8/10
10. Infinite- 7/10 (underrated)
11. Re-Up- 7/10 (No Apologies alone makes this a 7

)
12. D12 World- 5.5/10
..I pretend encore never happened. 5 & 6 and 7 & 8 can be easily flipped. 10 & 11 can be as well along with 8 & 9
