In my case it's average...to methat's what I personaly think of the album, that's all.It' sold well and the album itself is said to be pretty good with ''hardcore'' rhymes and him being a whiter rapper and all but to me eminem will always be a try hard and so on. Most of these rappers now days that get mentioned a lot and have made a lot of money off rap music and are all people who make and support this commercialised, pop rap that is watered down music with a bunch of crap rhymes put together that you hear everyday that just brings down the real hip hop that people used to listin to and all this junk has become the norm to people and todays rap lovers today so people really don't care and really don't know what good music is now and before.a lot of rappers have been not true to the ''game'' by changing the music from good rhymes to being over commercial and not being lyrical at all and that to me isn't being true to the busness of hip hop.
I think everyone knows Eminem is wack now....everything from the Encore album and on sucked ass. The Slim Shady LP and Eminem Show are classics though. Everything is else is just...eh.

Eminem supporting a lot of mainstream rappers and coming out with more commercialized stuff nowadays has nothing to do with how good those albums were. It seems like your just letting some personal vendetta against Eminem get in the way of your judgement to me.
Yeah .. kinda ofIt's kind of a childhood memory cause I used to listin to him heaps then I didn't for somereason.. I don't know, I need a psycolgist or somthing to fix my hate on eminem lol.oh well.. from the fact that I hate him..Eminem isn't a legend, he's had two great albums and some okay songs in his past ones but I don't think Eminem should be considered amazing but he's good to some extent.

Ok I worded that badly. I'm not the type that says if you don't listen to underground or old school music you don't know what good music is. I meant to say if you think the lyrics in those albums were just decent then you have less hip hop knowledge than I thought. I just thought he was trying to say those albums were like Encore when there is clearly a major difference between them and that's a fact not an opinion.
