New Eminem Album: Recovery (2010)

Thread Starter 
Got leaked earlier this week, anybody give it a spin on their iPods yet?

Features no skits (thank god), and a crapload of Eminem trying to sing.

25 to Life is my favourite song so far after a full listen.

Thoughts?

Not Afraid is probably one of his better songs in recent memory. And since I have a soft spot for Rihanna, I really like Love The Way You Lie. His one track with Wayne is straight rubbish though.

No love... started off as terrible, especially with that sample. However, it has started to grow on me.

Great rapping. Nice to see not a single fart noise or funny accent used. Awful, awful hooks; words can't explain how terrible these things are. The beats are okay, which is an amazing feat for an Eminem album as he has the worst ear for beats. My analysis after 3 listens: it's okay. Best Eminem album in a long time though. He's by far the best rapper who is incapable of making a classic album. The Rhianna song in hilarious. It's all about a guy who hits his girl in the face and then apologizes but doesn't mean it.

I've got to listen to this. Oddly for me, I like his music.

Not bad, but not his best. It is one of those albums that isn't bad but it has to grow on me, the same way I feel about Drakes Thank Me Later.

Eminem is garbage, I can't stand his lyrics. He's so mad at the world and just spews out hate in every song and doesn't thank anyone for what he has. He is a douchebag

I'm really digging Not Afraid.

Eminem is a cool guy, he doesn't afraid of anything.

He hasn't put put anything worth listening to since the Eminem show, has he? His songs go way too mainstream and lame after that. And by mainstream I mean not the popularity but rather the generic awful production that everyone else uses. I miss the first 3 albums.

Just checked out the clips from itunes. Every song sounds the same, the beats suck - from what I heard. Honestly, he's proven to be very one sided over the long term, and he hasn't put out anything great in a long time. He's had a couple of good songs here and there, but I doubt we will ever see anything close to what he did early on in his career.

I'm willing to bet that his best stuff will be on Dre's album.

I was surprised that it was actually pretty good.

I don't feel like looking it up but it feels as if Dre has stopped producing Eminem's stuff for the last 5-6 years. Eminem just works better with Dre's beats.

Giving it a listen right now. Much better than i was expecting. I don't like "Not Afraid" at all but "Cinderella Man" and "25 to Life" are solid.
