Legacy, Evil Twin, Bad Guy, and Rhyme or Reason... nuff said

Wicked Way, Groundhog Day and Baby as well. Baby just has a shitty chorus but other than that it's fire.

Wicked Way and Groundhog Day are fuckin disgusting... I dont understand why those were left off yet, Headlights and shit like that made it. the fuck? smh

and LOL @ Love Game... that shit is funny

 

[JerfyT]

Why do you guys keep saying those songs were left off? They are on the album. The point of making a deluxe version is to get people to buy it. Of course he is going to put good songs on it.

Headlights is deep, good to hear him shine a light on the issue with his mother, song feels genuine.

 

[gemini86]

baby has that classic Dr. Dre feel

Eminem's 'The Marshall Mathers LP 2' Debuts At No. 1 in Britain With Big Sales

Eminem achieved his seventh consecutive No. 1 album in the U.K. Sunday (Nov. 10) with “The Marshall Mathers LP 2” (Interscope/Universal). Brooklyn DJ Storm Queen, aka Morgan Geist, scored an instant No. 1 single with “Look Right Through” (Defected/Ministry of Sound).

Eminem’s new release sold 143,000 copies last week, the third highest opening tally by an individual artist in the territory this year. Only Daft Punk’s “Random Access Memories” (Columbia, Sony, 165,000) and Arctic Monkeys’ “A.M.” (Domino, 157,000) sold more in their first week, although “Now That’s What I Call Music! 85” (Sony Music CG/Virgin EMI/Universal) has the best week one total of 2013, with 262,000. The Official Charts Company also reports that Eminem thus moves level with the Beatles in joint second place for the most chart-topping U.K. albums in a row. That record is jointly held by Led Zeppelin and Abba, with eight each.

Pharoahe Monch discusses Eminem's "Rap God" and says he "took it to another level" with the track.

Pharoahe Monch, who is referenced on Eminem's "Rap God," recently responded to the track.

“I knew he was going for incredible lyricism like always,” Monch said in an interview with XXL. “But it’s just really about the skills. He took it to another level on that song. The length of the song is bananas. How he shouted me out was just bananas. I thought the song was dope. He really raised the bar yet again.”

Monch also said he is set to shout Eminem out to return the favor.

"I just wanna shout-out Em for shouting me out and showing me love,” Monch said. "I’m sure there are a 100 other people he could’ve chose to shout out there and that’s real big. So I just wanna show him love and say I’m a huge fan."

During the interview, Monch said he first heard about Eminem from a New York rapper named Mr. Complex.

"He was listening to way more underground artists than I was at the time and he was telling me about Em,” Monch said. “He played me a song with Em about having a body in a trunk, back when it was in the demo stages… Content-wise and skill-wise it just blew me away cause it was so different."

Earlier this year, Eminem spoke about Monch's skills during a Town Hall-like interview with Shade 45.

"Pharoahe Monch is incredible," Eminem said. "And he has been ahead of his time since he came out.”

thats the thing tho, most people wont buy the deluxe version. Idk bout these days but usually deluxe means you pay more for those extra songs and most people wont do that for an extra couple songs. Im just sayin those songs shouldve been on the regular version over some of the whack songs. just my opinion.

 

[Sour-Cream]

Didn't like it, first listen thought it was dope, second listen and I wanted to break that shit.

 

[VIBE]

Can't stand Asshole, easily the worst track production wise, lyrically and chorus wise.

 

[choppa_style]

Now the masses think that Asher wants to be a Marshall Mathers

They say "Asher's not a rapper, nah his ass is just an actor"

slap

Who's getting slapped? He's saying that people think Asher is just acting like Eminem and isn't authentic, not that Eminem is an actor.

Yea I tried to give it another burn last night, not working for me. Some witty lines here and there but that beat and his flow is a little off at times. Probably my least fav track next to the singing joint.
