I think it's a big risk to name it Marshall Mathers LP II. Whether or not someone likes Em, they have to acknowledge that MMLP was one of the greatest rap records of all time. I still maintain that Eminem Show is his best album, and a classic, but SSLP and MMLP are as well.
You can definitely hear the Rubin influence at least int he Berzerk at least, sounds like Em is doing his thing but with a Beastie's vibe....but it sounds good.
There's no way this album will live up to the original, but Em must be confident as hell to name it that. I do have a hunch this will be his best album since Eminem Show though. Encore was decent, had many good songs and some major missteps, overall was a decent B-/B. His flow was just too simplified for my liking on Encore, probably due to the heavy ass drug use during 2004-2007. Relapse had some dope records, again some major missteps like Encore, and that god damn accent. It worked on some records like 3AM, Medicine Ball, Drop the Bomb On Em, Must be the Ganja, but he over did it with that. Relapse was better lyrically than Encore, but Encore was better overall in my opinion.
Recovery was his best album since Eminem Show. His flow was on point, his wordplay sharp as ever, but the only thing bringing it down was the production. Aside from Cold Wind Blows, On Fire, WTP, Seduction, Ridaz, Session One, You Don't Own Me, the production was weak. He fell way too in love with the Dj Khalil/Boi-1da style during Recovery, it's only misstep. Still Recovery was a real solid album in my opinion.
Hell The Sequel was than his best official release/work since 2002's Em Show or 8 Mile. His lyricism was on beast mood, Royce and Em bring something special in each other, and the overall vibe was dope. The only thing I wasn't really feeling was Lighters, which was obviously to get the EP some radio recognition, and Take From Me was average. But he went HAM in Welcome to Hell, Fast Lane, Loud Noises, Living Proof, Echo, and even the over the top shouting worked on songs like Above the Law, and he had some clever Shady lines on A Kiss as well.
I think given the snippets from the album, Dre and Rubin's involvement, everything Alchemist has said in interviews about Eminem being at his very best on this album, I think and HOPE it will dope.
Eminem's never released something straight up whack, but he just hasn't put it all together 100% on a release since Eminem Show and 8 Mile. Hell The Sequel came close. Recovery with better production was close too.Comment

It would be nice to see him come back in top form. I am definitely getting a Beastie Boys vibe from what we've heard so far.Comment

I'm just trippin' that he died the hair back blonde again, never thought he'd do it again. Haven't seen him like that since like 2006 when he was basically drugged up 24/7.Originally posted by ShoulderRoll View PostComment

Hip Hop is all about trying different styles, it sound like he's going for an old school feel. I think it sounded pretty good.Originally posted by ShoulderRoll View Post
It's eminem. As long as he goes hard you know it's gonna be fire.Comment

One thing you know for sure about Eminem, he never makes the same album twice, like so many emcees, even someone as great as Nas has made albums that sound straight up like some of his other records.Originally posted by Strictly_UG View Post
From Infinite to Slim Shady LP to Marshall Mathers LP to Eminem Show to Encore to Relapse to Recovery to Hell The Sequel (Bad Meets Evil), none of them sound the same in their overall vibe whatsoever. You can be sure this one will probably follow suit.
Also I hope my sig is the cover.Comment
