Anyone check that new Ice Cube joint? Joint vicious. [/gangsta talk]

Great songs for sure.

MM LP probably hit me harder and made more of an impression (but then again i was in like 7th grade), but I find that Eminem Show has had more of a lasting value with me. I guess it's all just personal opinion though. To each his own.

I don't remember soldier, but don't actually like Cleaing Out my Closet or Til I Collapse. To be honest, my taste changes often. If you had talked to me back when say Cleaning Out was being played everywhere, I would've said I liked the song.

My favorite eminem songs are by far Infinite, Bad Meets Evil, and 313.... he steadily got worse album by album.

To sum it up I prefered him when he had the AZ sound, not the Cage sound.

gotcha. i have to say ive liked his progression, although encore is without a doubt my least favorite work from him (still some great songs on there- yellow brick road comes to mind). i have to say i prefer the more pissed off version of eminem compared to his younger years. that's probably why i like the mm lp and em show the best. to me infinite is great, but it was easily comparable to what other rappers at the time were doing (as you said az for example). It sounds similar to the illmatic style that was popular then. But I think over the years eminem has truly cultivated a sound of his own, which I really respect and dig at the same time.

on a side note, as for the song soldier, it was always my favorite song on the ES. The transition from the kiss skit to that song is the coolest transition i've ever heard.

Wikipedia doesn't have a release date, and I don't see anything on a couple more sites. I think it might be a late season release.

It would take a lot of skill and planning for Eminem to NOT bounce back from Encore.

He was pretty sick up until The Eminem Show.
But when he is paired with Royce Da 5'9, he is fire.

Scray Movies and Bad Meets Evil are nuts.

everyone likes eminem because he is white. white kids feel connection with his music because of his skin color.if he was black his popularity would NOT be as strong.

Talib Kweli writes much better lyrics and is a better MC than Marshal Mathers but he hasn't achieved near the commerical success.Why is that?
