Eminem: Recovery

Seriously one of the best albums I've heard in a while. One of the few that I can listen to straight through without skipping a song...and that's of any artist. It's good to see that he's getting back to his old style of music.

Favorite tracks: it's up in the air between Space Bound and Love the Way You Lie

Thoughts?

I've only heard Not Afraid and I liked it. I didn't care for his last album much at all.

I don't think many people did...it was too...pop wannabee sort of joke album. One thing good about the last album was that it sucked so bad that it just makes this one sooooo much better.

Not Afraid is good but not the best on the album IMO.

Yeah pop was the wrong word...not sure what to call it...but it wasn't old school Eminem that's for sure.

If ya ever watch that 50cent special, he says in it he sort of lost his edge then. He helped sign 50 and he was so good it make him want to quit rap.

Maybe he found his edge again................

Eminem even discredits his last two albums. First one he was on drugs, and the last one he rushed. I'm glad he's back. A lot of reflection in this album, but it's not sad for the most part. He's evolved yet again and for the better.

I generally don't like full albums, but a few songs in particular (aside from tech n9ne) and recovery has so many good songs I like more than 75% of it.

I agree...Relapse was definetly not his best work. Originally, Recovery was supposed to be released within months of each other bu Em decided to pull it back due to how Relaspe was perfoming and wanted better material. I think the wait and work paid off. Great album. Listened to it all the way through. Definitely one of the best lyricist around.

Yeah I like the album. Lyrically Eminem snapped on just about every record destroyed Wayne on No Love. My Favorite Tracks are Space Bound, No Love, 25 To Life, and Love The Way You Lie

Recovery is 100% better than Relapse,there were times in this album where he said some bad things about his last album.
