Recovery – Eminem

Every song on this album goes hard. After hearing his previous album, Relapse, I thought Eminem was on his way out. I could not have been more wrong. He even addresses the failure of Relapse in  a confessional track entitled, “Not Afraid”.

And to the fans, I’ll never let you down again, I’m back
I promise to never go back on that promise, in fact
Let’s be honest, that last Relapse CD was “ehhhh”
Perhaps I ran them accents into the ground.

Looking past the previous album, Recovery, is no let-down. This is on par with the Slim Shady LP without a doubt.  All sixteen songs are great, but If I had to pick the top three…

  1. “You’re Never Over”
  2. “Space Bound”
  3. “Not Afraid”

The music video for “Not Afraid” released a few days ago, check it out here:

Honorable mention: “No Love” feat Lil Wayne. Any song that can rap over, “What is Love?” is awesome in my book.
