THREAD - Relapse Track-by-Track review

btw. ratings of skits don't count to the album rating
Dr. West - Skit
This skit is amazing. Possibly my favorite skit of all time. It suits the album well

10/10 for sure

Slim Shady returns! I feel like this is kinda different than the Slim Shady from '99-'03, but it definitely isn't bad. The beginning "You're walkin' down a horror corridor
It's almost four in the mornin' and you're in a
Nightmare, it's horrible, right there's the coroner" is...
at this point kinda iconic. It's a good song, but not anything incredible. I like it anyways

8/10
My Mom
My Mom... was this really important? Obviously, Eminem doesn't take this song that much seriously as he did on Cleanin' Out My Closet. I guess it's supposed to be a joke song and it kinda works. However, I think this song concept isn't that bad and it could be done a lot better..
I need to admit though - the hook is insanely catchy

6.5/10
Insane
I WAS BORN WITH THE DICK IN MY BRAIN YEAH FUCKED IN THE HEAD, MY STEPFATHER SAID THAT I SUCK IN THE BED

This song is INSANELY catchy wtf...
This song is so crazy and weird. I like it. The story is a huge joke. Rhyme schemes are so insane. Flow is good. I don't blame you if you hate this song, but I personally love it lmao

8.5/10
Bagpipes From Baghdad
This song is kinda forgettable ngl. This track is just one big non-sense. All verses are okay to bad. Disses to Mariah and Nick are not good at all. I don't really know what I like about this song. It's bad, but not horrible

3.5/10
Hello
The intro is fucking amazing. Verses are actually nice. The hook is okay. Basically a Relapse version of My Name Is. I don't really know what to say anymore about this track, it's good

8/10
Tonya - Skit
Not a bad skit, I am gonna give it a 7, because I have no idea how to rate this skit. Sorry guys

7/10
Same Song & Dance
Wow. This track is actually really good. Eminem kidnapping, murdering, and stuff. This is the right way to do songs like this. Perfect!

10/10
We Made You
Not bad. The flow is good, but it's possibly the highlight of this song. The hook is decent. It's still catchy like most of the songs on this album. Verses are not even that bad, just like, could be better I guess?

6/10
Medicine Ball
Worst song on this album... it's not good, it's not interesting, oh man. "I guess it's time to you hate me again" - the hook isn't even that bad. Flow is solid, but Relapse flows are in general solid-good-decent, never bad. I don't know, might be controversial, but

3.5/10
Paul - Skit
A Paul skit! Good

7/10
Stay Wide Awake
Rhyme schemes are extreme. Anyways, it's good. You probably heard about this song enough or at least I have, it's on my timeline 24/7. I like it though :)

8.5/10
Old Time's Sake
Not bad. Kinda catchy not gonna lie. Dr. Dre's verse is basically just a reminder that he is Dr. Dre, I guess it's still good. Eminem verses are not that bad. This song is forgettable, but at the same time not. Like I feel like all verses are kinda forgettable, but...
the song itself isn't. It's good enough

7/10
Must Be The Ganja
Woah I don't remember this track being that good. Another cool horrorcore song. The final verse is really good. The hook isn't bad. Great

8.5/10
Mr. Mathers - Skit
Eminem I am gonna give you a W for upcoming songs so be ready

8/10
Deja Vu
This is the best song on this album. Top 10 Eminem songs of all time possibly. This track is amazing. Some people hate the hook, but I personally like it. Let's go

10/10
Beautiful
Oh my god Em you really needed to put 2 amazing songs in a row. It's kinda too long, but I don't really mind. Yeah

10/10
Crack a Bottle
Not bad, but that's it. Crack a Bottle is a party song I think - but why would you play this instead of some better party songs? And the 50 Cent verse, man... why to put this song right after 2 amazing songs? Come on

5/10
Steve Berman - Skit
This skit is good. It wasn't needed, but it's still nice

7.5/10

(reminder: skits ratings don't count to the final album rating)
Underground
A great "comeback" song. I can imagine this being the first track on this album. Some lyrics are like, whatever, but the energy is there. The energy in this song is insane, so at least something. I actually like this song a lot

8/10
Relapse is a good album with some bad and mid songs. That's it. Also, 5 skits? I feel like you could delete at least 2 or 3 skits and nobody would notice, whatever, they are still good

71% = 7/10
