His collaboration with Kendrick Lamar on 'Love Game' was one of the collaborations of the year but for me the final track Evil Twin confirmed that this album is one of the best rap releases this year. The other singles, however, (particularly 'Rap God') reminded me that Eminem IS a living rap legend. Yeah, I thought 'Bezerk' was a little bit too Beastie Boys-esque for a 41 year old man in 2013 but that was down to Rick Rubin's production. I was a bit skeptical about Eminem releasing a sequel to his masterpiece album but it didn't disappoint. This album, however, was a return to form and it was the Eminem that I had grown to love in the Marshall Mathers LP. ![]() ![]() No one will ever understand how happy I am that Eminem is appearing on this list because for me he hasn't had a worthy album since The Eminem Show back in 2002 (not to say that Encore wasn't a decent album, it just wasn't what I had grown to expect from Eminem).
