On “Marshall Mathers”, Eminem has more targets, well, almost everybody (Ex. “Kim” had Eminem taken aim at a usual target but awarded fans by being a prequel to a previous song ( The Slim Shady LP‘s “97’ Bonnie & Clyde”). Even though at one point they played this song “ad nauseam”, it’s still as brilliant as ever and should be look as one of the best Hip-Hop songs of all times. Of course the media darling off the album was “Stan”. Yea, he was still crazy and still talented, but he was also growing.

After the initial chorus, Em goes in: “They said I can’t rap about being broke no more/They ain’t say I can’t rap about coke no more/(AH!) Slut, you think I won’t choke no whore/’til the vocal cords don’t work in her throat no more?!” In hindsight, I think I knew then this album was special then. The first song off the The Marshall Mathers LP is “Kill You”. After first listen of “The Ruler’s Back” off The Blueprint, I was immediately yelling “5 Mics!”…when 5 mics mattered). Sometimes with albums you just know immediately when you got something special (Ex. I’ve always said that The Slim Shady LP showed Eminem is talented, but his second album showed he could control it. Maybe I shouldn’t compare Eminem’s latest to his greatest. But this isn’t about my indecisiveness on Relapse, it’s about showing love to Eminem’s 2nd album The Marshall Mathers LP. Still no song off the album is my new favorite song. There’s just something that doesn’t grab me. Not to say it’s bad album Slim Shady still has arguably the best flow on the planet. After all the hype over Eminem’s latest album Relapse, I’m still not sure if I like it.
