Eminem – Relapse (2009)

December 28, 2022

Relapse is probably the most “modern” Eminem record that I look on fondly. A lot of the songs are recorded in this weird accent (just check out the first track “3AM”) but that aside, this is pretty solid. The misogyny and homophobia is enormously high as per usual. The bonus disk, Refill, isn’t really up to much (as soon as I heard Lil Wayne my expectations plummeted).

Also, for all the years I’ve listened to this, I never realised it was The Wire’s Dominic West (McNulty) who voices the doctor in the albums intro track (even though the track is fucking called “Dr. West”).
