Not Afraid? I can see how it might compare in terms of popularity, as you said, but the two songs arn't that like each other...

You are right, the content of 25 to life fits more with Stan than I'm not afraid does. I haven't listened to recovery much because I preferred Relapse I love it whenever he lets Slim Shady take over and run rampant. I love that character. Recovery is like he wants to show his grown up side and how he has changed blah blah blah boring compared to the wackiness of Slim Shady.

I've always like Eminem.. I find people are always going to look for a way to talk bad about someone who's hit such success, and on the other side of the coin, it's very tough to live up to what he's done before... I think all of his albums have been excellent.. They combine analogies, with some disses, and comedy... He shows such diversity in his rhymes that is very un-common, and I dig it.

This album regardless of his older stuff, is pretty solid. I am in the popular opinion where his older stuff is better, because well...that's just it, it is. But...hearing this album was a nice refreshing change from when he released Relapse. Don't get me wrong, that album was fine and all, but it really wasn't the "Eminem sound" I was wanting to hear. I read up on some of the lyrics, and they were great, but I just couldn't get used to the style he was using for his "vocal accent" or whatever you call it. He didn't sound like himself in that album. So hearing this, and hearing all his "purity" made it worthwile.

For some reason, artist who come back after being cleaned up don't make as good of music as they did when they were flyin the friendly skies.

Hit the nail on the head. It didn't matter how good his lyrics were on Relapse, though accents just ruin it for me. I hate when he raps like that. Just from a talent stand point I think Em has improved a lot since Slim Shady and Marshall Mathers LPs. Even if the songs aren't as good as those older classics, I think his flow and lyrical creativity is as good as ever. Not Afraid has been so over played and I still love it because of how creative the rhyme schemes and lyrics are.

Encore was average, and he was up with the fairies whilst making that lol

Hopefully Em steps up his game in future releases because he is an untouchable rapper.

I think he really sharpened his flow with this album

That being said, it's nowhere near the greatness of the Slim Shady and Marshall Mathers LP's
