About this album
Since 2005, Eminem had intended to take a break from recording his own music in order to become a hip hop producer for other rap acts, especially for the artists signed on his own label Shady Records. Such a break came when Eminem canceled the European leg of the Anger Management Tour in the summer of 2005 due to exhaustion and an addiction to sleeping pills. In the following year, the rapper’s remarriage to his former wife Kimberly Scott lasted only eleven weeks before a second divorce, while his closest friend and fellow rapper DeShaun “Proof” Holton was later shot and killed during an altercation outside a nightclub in Detroit. Devastated by this, Eminem relapsed into prescription drugs and became increasingly reclusive from the outside world, as he would rarely leave his house nor appear in public.
“ But, for some reason, in hindsight, the way I felt was almost like [Proof’s death] happened to just me … I just went into such a dark place that, with everything, the drugs, my thoughts, everything.

There is a concept/story here clearly but it's buried under SOME lacklustre Dre production and the same problems that plagued much of Encore - tired shock tactics and self-aware boasts. Eminem's always relied on his myth a little too much. Relapse (and the experiences that inspired it) was a missed opportunity to transcend this self-made myth.

He fluctuates between several personas (a lack of focus as opposed to deliberately skittish genius) and belches up as many convenient nonsensical retreads as he does all-too-familiar posse cuts. I understand the notion of Eminem's relapse as "Slim Shady's" temporary resurrection but then we have those spontaneous middle-eastern accents to contend with. One third of the album sounds like Eminem meandering around a drawing broad and failing to come up with anything fresh while the other 66% distortedly hints at what could have been a fantastic concept album with more hindsight/patience: Dr. West (Skit), 3 A.M., Bagpipes From Baghdad, Hello, Tonya (Skit), Same Song & Dance, Medicine Ball, Stay Wide Awake, Must Be The Ganja, Mr. Mathers (Skit), Déjà Vu, Beautiful, Steve Berman (Skit), Underground.

Relapse is much better than Recovery. That's a no-brainer.

I'm not one for this genre at all, but this album is fucking ace! I love it. Recovery is a bit meh though. I bought it because I love Relapse so much, but it just doesn't have it, it's a bit bland or lacks that edge, or something. You know what I mean?! O.o

Even Eminem doesn't like this album, which I don't understand since this album is pretty good!! Not better than The Eminem Show or Marshall Matters LP but better than others rappers records...
