Where would you consider the split from old to new though?
Something like this methinks:
EARLY
Infinite (1996)
OLD
The Slim Shady LP (1999)
The Marshall Mathers LP (2000)
The Eminem Show (2002)
Encore (2004)
NEW
Relapse (2009)
Recovery (2010)
In my humble opinion his old stuff is far better. The first 3 albums I have listed in the 'old' category I could literally listen to all day, all the way through, but Relapse and Recovery have a couple of stinkers. Even though I have Encore in the old section I didn't really like that album as it was the start of his off stage problems and as a friend of mine said, he spent more time whining about being famous and referencing his daughter more than anything else. He was definitely hungrier on the first 3 albums (excluding Infinite here) and everything was fresh and raw.
I would say he has matured but it doesn't make for better rhymes imo.
And in fairness even though Relapse features the return of the Slim Shady style violent raps it's not done in a funny way anymore, some of those tracks are just twisted! :eek:
If you took it as a 3 v 3 situation I think I know what 3 I'd vote for!
Slim Shady LP Encore
Marshall Mathers LP v Relapse
Eminem Show Recovery
Has to be the first 3 for me, look at these songs across all 3... My Name Is, Guilty Conscience, 97 Bonnie & Clyde, Just Don't Give a ****, Stan, The Way I Am, The Real Slim Shady, Bitch Please II, White America, Business, Cleanin' Out My Closet, Square Dance, Without Me, Sing for the Moment, Superman, Till' I Collapse...
can anyone name 16 tracks from the last 3 albums that would beat those in a head to head? I'm not trying to be a d!ck about this, if you believe in 16 tracks enough then name them and maybe I'll change my mind!
Recovery hints at a return to form though and I think the next album will be class, fingers crossed!0 -

I don't like how he delivers his bars in his new raps. Uses a weird accent. Overdubs too much. Too much shouting. He sounds rigid and mechanical. The beats are horrible. He's never had very good beat choices was better off when Dre was overseeing his projects and seeing that they stayed musical.0 -
