This album is completely amazing. His rhymes never disappoint. Anyone else loving this record?
Is it so wrong to think that love can keep us safe?

    I've been listening to it quite a bit. I really enjoy it. "Rap God" blows my friggin' mind every time I listen to it.

    Especially the part where he says 97 words in 15 seconds AND you can understand every word.

    Listened all the way through for the first time yesterday. Pretty good. Too much sampling of oldies songs though...would be nice to hear some original beats.

    See, I actually like that aspect of it. Taking a very familiar and recognizable song that has been heard 100's of times and putting modern beats and rap lyrics over it and having it actually sound good.

    I am loving this record. Amazing from start to finish. I like the Headlights song too where he sort of makes peace with his mother. Amazingly catchy tune with some meaningful lyrics. I love how he made Bad Guy a sequel to Stan where Stan's younger brother Matthew kidnaps Eminem and drives him around Detroit in his trunk.
    He who forgets will be destined to remember.

    Just downloaded the deluxe edition and listened to it...and not impressed.

    I agree...too much sampling. I will also say the songs are very discombobulated. Also too many guest RB singers (though Rhianna's was okay, but he's done that before too).

    Worst Eminem album IMO.

    I feel the exact opposite. Listened to it again this morning while out Christmas shopping, and I do believe it's the best he's put out in quite a while. To each his own though.
