Then you're not only perverted, you have horrible taste.

Hailie's Song is mostly sung, and it's his most beautiful, heartfelt work.

I really liked this, a lot better than Relapse which wasn't my cup of tea. I'm glad he moved on from that and left some of those retarded accents behind. I don't like when Em sings the choruses, but other than that I think he's just an icredible talent and can't really be touched by anyone lyrically or flow-wise. Only exception is Nas for me, but their styles area lot different, Em's more pop culture references

I thought it was good but I liked his Relapse album better tho.

Yeah you pretty much are, most people really enjoyed The Eminem Show.

Do you represent everyone else's opinions?

Thought this was really cheesy and radio-friendly. Quite an about-face from what he sounded like on the Marshall Mathers LP, so I guess I'd call him a sell-out.

Also, I find absolutely nothing redeeming in Lil Wayne or Rihanna so their presence on the album really doesn't help.

Are YOU kidding ME?

I'd hate to play middle man but... While I don't think it's on par as MMLP I certainly don't think it's bad or selloutish. It's a lot more commercial than Relapse, that's for sure - but it's also a far better record.

Also, have you guys noticed the maturing in his voice?

I don't think it's really a "maturing" in his voice it's just that he decided not to play up the characters that he created. He didn't do anything slim shady related on Recovery.

I loved Relapse because Slim Shady was going super crazy on that one and his voice was jumping all over the place. I almost reminded me of Infinite in some ways.
