One of my favorite blogger/vloggers weighs in on Marshall Mathers’ love for polysyllabic words. You know who my partner is, but if you don’t like Relapse you’re lying to yourself. Ha!
But I’ll let Billy Sunday DP tell it.
“Eminem’s latest album ‘Relapse’ is fantastic for it’s graphic gory content. This album is part of the great history of epic entertaining horror-core productions. This album is rap’s ‘Nightmare On Elm Street’. It is horrific, disgusting, profane, satirical and brilliant all at the same time. Lyrically, I consider this to be on a classic level. If the beats by Dr. Dre were swapped out for some of the dark production of DOOM, or more appropriately RZA, this album would be a certified classic. This drop though is to discuss the lyrical eminence of Eminem. A reader stated that this album was garbage. I don’t believe that reader listened to this album or if he did his ability to judge art is negligible.”
Read all about it.
See ya in the D next Tues. Ha! Confession: I never met Eminem. And I’m gonna try my best to keep it that way.





Disrespectful views at Tha Kang, T.I.? Nah, Ms. Banks you're out of line. Yeah Harris' Aussie ain't that dope but neither are you. I just saw you at Coachella and I wasn't impressed. You got the look, the swag, the tough talk but where are the tunes? "212" is alright but that's where it stops. According to Jay-Z's old board rules: You have no right to diss Tip. Look in the mirror and ask yourself: How many classic albums have you created? Are you on anyone's top 10 MCs list? Do you have any hardware on your walls, ma? Cliff is right. Keep him out of the girlfight. You're heavy in these tweets, but I hope you're finding time to create music that backs up your buzz. Or you'll soon be begone like Kreayshawn. You young ladies today bore me. *Turns up Mia X CD* No Limit forever!
The best things in life are free, but hopping on Hov's press conference stage uninvited is gon cost cha. Whatcha did was wrong! ⎯B.Dot
Great article, great point. Relapse is something fresh, and something ive been waiting for, for a minute. The Weezy album was great, the singles are great. Lyrically, and creatively, it doesnt even come close to relapse.
everybody is listening to this album wanting to hear some radio singles……some soulja boy shit, some caller tunes bullshit. if they actually listened to the album they would hear the fuckin crazy ass word play eminem has. RELAPSE = EMINEM’S RETURN
GREATEST RAPPER ALIVE, OF ALL TIME PERIOD!!!!!!!!!!
On a classic level? Some people are SADLY confused as to what constitutes great lyricism. If your subject matter is ASS then your lyrical wizardry means NOTHING! Relapse is trash. Dre wasted beats on this ablum.
For you eminem stans who think this album marks some sort of amazing return….don’t kid yourselfs KIDS! You children need to stop listening to eminem’s useless garbage that he is trying to pass off as hip hop and get on some real hip hop. You emo, suburban, white kids are the only reason he has high record sales.
at MrLxZ, you are smoking crack if you think eminem is the greatest rapper alive…..he’s had better rappers signed to his own label….quit kidding yourself KID. Hell, there have been better rappers that have come out of Detroit. He’s not even the greatest WHITE rapper ever.
lol..children need to stop listening…from when did rap become things for kids..i mean…Brenda’s got a baby…i dont want my little sister to listen to that song..so you better stop giving yourselves reasons ffor how good or bad Relapse was….I agree it wasnt the dopest Eminem album…but can you NOT consider this as a classic
southcakc23..you probably love the commercial shit all tha time man..I aint into that kinda music you kno…i like Real hard core rap…your crying deep isnide…giving your selvess reasons…making yourself understand…that how bad eminem is…you wanna pokke your eyes out..when you see Eminem getting voted the Best Rapper Ever …..Appreciate Rap Nigga….Dont hate on Noone…Your idol Rick Ross And Lil wayne and Jay z have called the relapse record a classic….and if you think Marshall Mathers Lp didnt deserve the sales it got…you probably should start lsitening to some Lady gaga shit
