Is "Airplanes Pt. 2" the best feat. verse from Recovery era?

[Raul]

Let's pretend Marshall Mathers never picked up a pen
Let's pretend things would've been no different
Pretend he procrastinated, had no motivation
Pretend he just made excuses that were so paper thin
They could blow away with the wind, "Marshall you're never gonna make it
Makes no sense to play the game, there ain't no way that you'll win"

Fuck a talent show in the gymnasium bitch
"You won't amount to shit, quit daydreaming kid
You need to get your cranium checked
You're thinking like an alien, it just ain't realistic"
Now pretend they ain't just make him angry with this shit

One of the best verses from that era.

[EmTV]

It's definitely a contender maybe not the best, but he goes off.

[shadyblogger]

Never really gave this much thought but I think you're right. This verse may be the best feat. Recovery era verse. I really dig it.

[EminemBase]

No. And in some parts, and for Em, it's written lazy as shit.

I did love the ''pretend he even had a friend!'' bit though, brought a bit of a lump on the first listen.

LTWYL 2 and maybe On fire verses... It has grown on me! One of the most densely written songs of Em

[Notalius]

Fuck LTWYL 1 & 2 and everybody that loves em'

Is Richard considered Recovery era? If so, Richard >>> Airplanes.

[mdemaz]

Richard was recorded in the H:TS era, I think?

[csw621]

Was a given era taking place when the album was being written/recorded, or when it was released?

[shadyblogger]

Yeah Richard was 2012. It was an in between period. I thought that verse was dope af. His opening bars are so hard to rap along to because his flow is just spazzing out at that part.

[shadyblogger]

I love the song.

Obie Trice's verses were pretty funny and cool too

[shadyblogger]

Richard is not from the mmlp2 era, it was recorded in early 2012, Jan or Feb.... Its em getting comfortable with his voice and experimenting with his voice/delivery.

Wasn't Rap God recorded in 2011 ?

Where'd you get that from?

[Him Shadow]

Rap God was recorded in 2012, Em said it
