Solid list but I'd move brand new dance further down. Evil and fuel are definitely up there for me though. Evil may be my top favorite, followed by fuel, guilty conscience 2, somebody save me, and temporary. I'm a sucker for the emotional shit lol.
Think for most road rage and head honcho are literally why this isnt in contention for one of his all time classic albums. Also weak bar on tobey. Up to fuel imo compete w his best though
If the album had more songs like Renaissance it would legit feel like the eminem show or something. It's probably my favorite song of the album tbh shame it's so short
I like everything except for that ear bleeding chorus. Was that old school too? It felt so disconnected from the verses. What does road rage have to do with Eminem fat shaming? I'm not even hating here I just don't understand.
@@kanamethelegendPart of me thinks it's partly because when people road rage, they really be saying some crazy shit- a bit like slim. So if someone cuts you off and they're overweight, you'll call them 'fat bitch' or something to that effect a lot of the time. The lyrics "All I need is one little road rage reason, yeah blah blah blah" seem to point to this. The chorus is divisive but I like it. Basically saying they want someone to give them a reason to black out and go crazy. I also take the song a bit like it's just Em in a shitty mood rapping in the car about today's world. Going with the reverse album theory, Road Rage comes after Houdini, in the end of the Houdini video they drive off wrecking the city. It would therefore make sense for road rage to follow.
Em's verse on fuel I personally think is the greatest display of rap ever. It's like Goku entering Ultra Instinct and you're just like "OH damn....here he goes again"
I agree with pretty much everyone of these, but I'd put antichrist ahead of habits personally, then habits would probably be #6 or something, but the rest I all agree with
At first, I agreed with the opinion that this album should have stopped at Guilty Conscience 2, but after listening to it backwards, man, the last part of the album is definitely needed. Plus, Head Honcho, Temporary, Bad One and Somebody saves me are really growing on me
I think the concept of the album is open to interpretation: for example: (He’s always struggling to Slim Kill Shady in (Habits). (another example: (Temporary) and (Somebody Save me) are both dealing with “Death” of Slim Shady) This is definitely one of his greatest albums ever.
For me it goes Fuel, GC2, AntiChrist, Evil, Lucifer. I actually really like Road Rage. Not so much for the lyrical skill but just the whole vibe. As usual, the two singles are my least favorite. I know a lot of people like houdini but I never liked the radio made “without me” stuff.
Omg this whole AI thing is pissing me right off.. he's recorded it and probably used a shed tonne of filters and equalisers in post to make it sound that way... come on now
it's probably an old reused bit. you can hear after the second verse the voice changes, i've heard some speculation about just the second part being recently recorded
This is a 10/10 for me. I’d rate this currently #5 out of his 12 albums but can see it rise higher. Amazing and well executed concept. Em kills it yet again
My top 5 5-Evil-That chorus and the super clever entendres in this jeeeez! 4-Temporary-I grew up with so much Eminem since I was maybe 10-11 years old and this brought me back to Mockingbird Hallies Song and When I’m Gone. Very beautiful but a tear jerker. 3-Somebody Save Me-Being an only child in Tennessee and my family suffering from addiction really brings me home and this is pure amazement. 2-Fuel-I mean Crypt said it best lol 1-Tobey-I can’t help it I think everybody had amazing verses and the hook catches me. I was really impressed especially with Big Sean’s verse
I agree quite a bit with what you have to say about most of these songs and your rankings, even though any individual song I might slide up or down just a few spots. It’s so hard for me to nail down my top five from the album - I feel like rankings could change just based on my mood any given day, and could change just from sitting with the album a bit longer. And if speculations of a follow-up project (or maybe two 👀) coming out in the near future are correct, that could re-contextualize things. Anyway, my best go at it as of today… 5. “Renaissance” - The perfect opening track. The beat is amazing (produced by Eminem and Louis Resto) - reminds me of a cross between something from The Eminem Show and Relapse. Gets you hyped for what’s to come - “I’m gonna show your ass why I’m still a pain in it.” 4. “Habits” - So much classic Slim! 😂 Literally made me laugh out loud. Really smooth flow and delivery. White Gold with a solid hook. 3. “Fuel” - I was not familiar with JID coming into this. He definitely understood the assignment. But, I rate this song this high solely for Em’s verse - he went crazy. I still have “Best Friend” as his best one ever, with “Medicine Man” closely behind. His verse here in “Fuel” is in discussion for that third spot. 2. “Lucifer” - They just nailed this one. A classic, badass Dre beat, classic Slim talk, amazing wordplay, and Sly Piper is niiiiice on that hook. 1. “Guilty Conscience 2” - I just love so much about this one. It’s so damn compelling -introspective and meta. To me, this album is essentially a movie, and this song feels like the climax of the movie. The protagonist and antagonist in a one-on-one battle - and it’s kinda up to the listener to determine which role which character assumes. (For a lot of listeners, they find the Slim Shady part of Em’s catalogue to be the best and most replay-able.) There are a lot of little details that callback specifically to “When I’m Gone” (pre-OD) and to Relapse (first album post-OD). The haunting choir in the background of the track reminds me of “Underground” (think of the promo video of a hand reaching out of the grave). And the melding of Slim’s and Marshall’s voices and the discussion of looking in the mirror is very reminiscent of “My Darling.” The mirror discussion also calls back to Em looking in the mirror several times in “When I’m Gone.” Then we have an alarm go off with “When I’m Gone” playing in the background. An incredible amount of thought and attention went into this track. Honorable mentions for “Brand New Dance” and “Temporary.” I had a hard time not including them. “Brand New Dance” literally makes me start dancing and laughing every time I hear it. It’s so stupid, but in the best diabolical way. 😂 It’s a bop. On the very opposite end of the spectrum, “Temporary” is insanely beautiful. It’s so sweet and sentimental, but it’s such a tearjerker. Big props to Skylar Grey - gorgeous voice, great co-production with Eminem that just feels so ethereal and leaves room for the song to breathe. The cuts from the recordings Eminem had with Hailie are precious and show who he is and has always been as a father.
Top 5 for me. 1. Fuel (I literally said during my first listen "This is going to be the best song on the album) 2. Bad ones 3. Houdini 4. Habits 5. Trouble Oddly enough, most of your album review rankings are almost song for song exactly the same as my rankings lol but on this album we have very different rankings. My issue with GC2 is I had my own idea of what it would sound like, I would of liked to at least have an ending similar to the original where slim sets Dre off and by the end is on the same side as slim. and because of that I feel like that song could of been alot better so I over hyped it and got disappointed lol still a great song though.
Habbits,Antichrist,Guilty Conscience 2 and Brand New Dance are my favorite new songs from the album.(I love Houdini and Tobey) For me this album is his best album since Recovery.
Not counting the skits but my ranking 1. Fuel ft JID 2. Habits ft White Gold 3. Houdini 4. Evil 5. Renaissance 6. Lucifer 7. Bad One 8. Trouble 9. Antichrist 10. Tobey 11. Head Huncho I don’t really listen to the rest because of the sad songs, I like the chorus on Road Rage and agree w the song, it’s just a weird song like you said, and Brand New Dance isn’t on my self made playlist but if it comes on, it’s too catchy to skip but it’s not a preference I liked every song on the album the only skip for me is also Road Rage, I don’t skip the other songs if they come on but I don’t play them because they’re too sad or just too weird
Good list, I wouldn't argue much with your ordering. Would definitely put Tobey higher, forgot it was on the album at one point and when it came on it blows a lot of his other verses out of the water. If Renaissance onyk had a chorus and another verse it would be top 3, totally agree. Love that sounding Eminem, with the cadence and delivery, so good. 1. Fuel. 2. Guilty Conscience 2 3. Antichrist. 4. Lucifer. 5. Evil. 6. Tobey. 7. Bad One 8. Head Honcho 9. Somebody Save Me 10. Temporary 11. Houdini 12. Habits 13. Brand New Dance 14. Road Rage For people saying it's better than MTBMB I think you're crazy. That album was amazing. Recovery and MMLP2 were also better, Revival was even better. Too much emphasis on the crazy shit on this album and not many deeper more thought provoking songs which is why it doesn't have much replay ability for me. Better than Kamikaze that's about it for me. All other album had at least 3 or 4 brilliant songs, what's brilliant on this, maybe GC 2 or Fuel, that's it. Think of songs like Darkness on MTBMB, Castle/Arose on Revival, Bad Guy and Legacy on MMLP2, Nothing on this is as good as those
Agree to disagree with you on that one bud. Even if other albums had more thought provoking/content filled songs, the amount of skippable songs and/or bad production bring some of those albums down quite a bit. Revival was great but the production was horrible, and MTBMB was amazing but it had quite a few fillers/skips as well. This album didn't have a single bad instrumental, it had some of the best mixing and technical rapping of his entire discography, and (for me personally) it has no skips. It's also his first fully conceptual album (other than Revival, but this is more complex) and extremely creative, especially using all those voices to tell a story. He gave us fans a bit of everything we've wanted while also doing his own thing, which culminates in deep retrospection in GC2 and explains where he's at in life in addition with Temporary. Then ends with Somebody Save me which restarts the cycle of death and rebirth for the concept. Idk. I definitely think this is in his top 5 albums of all time. I've had it on repeat since it came out, so I disagree with it having no replay value.
@@D.Ghostt I didn't go as far as saying no replay value. The songs I put high on my list will go into my Eminem best of playlist but few would make my general music playlist. In fairness Revival did have some terrible songs like Heat, Untouchable I find hard to listen to, MTBMB didn't have many fillers. Thought it was a brilliant double album. All of Eminem's work since recovery has been extremely Technical, including Revival, but I'm not buying the whole concept thing with this one, I think that's something he decided later on to make it seem like there was some sort of idea behind it. It's a lot of the usual pop cultural references he has always done, but there's not really anything on this album that makes me go wow. GC 2 doesn't hit the same way the last verse on Bad Guy did, not a patch on it, but similar idea. The more heartfelt songs like Temporary and Somebody Save me are nice, but nothing new here either and was done better before on other albums. No uplifting motivational tracks, although Fuel, Renaissance and Tobey see him get some serious flows on. It just doesn't his for me like some of his other stuff, but I'll still be listening to it over again for the next few weeks.
Fun Slim Shady antics Guilty Conscience 2 could have been a video and had Dre as the voice of reason and Slim Shady as the monster they created. I liked the Cash Money beat flip, wanted more of this concept Save Me and Temporary are reminders of the emotionally driven Eminem records! Looking forward to the next album and where he plans to take his sound. Would love a full legends album with Eminem / Lil Wayne / Jay Z / Nas Prod by Dre
As of now my ranking of the songs has shifted to: - Antichrist - Habits - Renaissance - Fuel - Houdini - Guilty Conscience 2 - Brand New Dance - Evil - Bad One - Lucifer - Somebody Save Me - Tobey - Temporary - Trouble - Head Honcho -Road Rage It has changed so many times though lol. Some songs grew on me and started to stick after a few listens that didn't hit the first time as much.
Hey man! I think your ranking is excellent. Very close to how I would have ranked it, especially the top two, I’ve said those two are my top two from the first listen.
I don’t know about my top 5 bro Everyday i like one song more But overall 1-fuel 2-habits 3-guilty conscience 2 4-brand new dance 5- idk lucifer and evil are fire
1. Fuel 2. Renaissance 3. Guilty conscience 2 4. Habits 5. Evil 6. Save me 7.Antichrist 8. Brand new dance 9. Houdini 10. Lucifer 11. Bad one 12. Temporary 13. Tobey 14. Head honcho 15. Trouble 16. Road rage. 17. Guess who's back 18. All you got 19. Breaking news Love your videos crypt. Been a fan for a long time. You've expanded my knowledge on music and how indepth simple lines and verses can be. Always look forward to your videos.
@Crypt in the song where he said he was done insulting people (GC2) you’re forgetting that he woke up from a nightmare at the end meaning that was just a dream he’s not actually done also it entails the fact that he didn’t actually kill shady because it was again a dream
My top 5 1) Renaissance(renewed) Habits (this is 1 song imo...the names even fit) 2) Fuel 3) Guilty Conscience 2 4) Lucifer 5) Tie between Antichrist and Brand new dance
Top five imo 1. Guilty conscience 2 2. Fuel 3. Temporary 4. Save me 5. Brand new dance The songs he does for his daughters are always good. Mocking bird and when I’m gone are a couple I always listen to. This album is fire!!
1) Lucifer 2) Fuel 3) Evil 4) Guilty Conscious 2 5) Antichrist 6) Habits 7) Renaissance 8) Houdini 9) Bad One 10) Tobey 11) Head Hancho 12) Temporary (Honestly, one of the best overall songs. Just hard to listen to lol) 13) Save Me 14) Brand New Dance 15) Road Rage 16) Trouble 17) All you got 18) Guess Who's Back 19) Breaking News The first 6 are really interchangeable for me. I love them all. The album is a 10/10 for me. It's becoming my favorite album. There's so much to take from this album. It's a roller-coaster ride. It makes you laugh, it makes you think, it makes you wanna conquer the world, and it makes you cry. All within an hour. It's a trip for real. There's really not a song I don't like. Road Rage might be least favorite, but I don't hate it. It gives me a message of accepting myself, no matter what anyone says about me. Lol
I find Road Rage to be placing the mindset at a higher plane of understanding, and that can easily be misinterpreted, but it's both a good and bad thing. It's not talking overly smart at all, but rather, trying to explain something more complex than what is being said. It's just about body positivity, but there's a concept of how positivity overrides negativity, and how you should never care for the negative side. In general, this song may not appeal, but after you get the deeper undertone to it, things change. Either way, I just think it's underrated.
My list: 1. Fuel 2. Guilty Conscience 2 3. Evil 4. Brand New Dance 5. Houdini 6. Lucifer 7. Temporary 8. Somebody Save Me 9. Habits 10. Renaissance 11. Antichrist (I actually don’t love the hook on this which brings it down) 12. Tobey 13. Trouble 14. Bad One 15. Head Honcho 16. Guess who’s back 17. Road Rage 18. All you got 19. Breaking News
With all the scrouteny that AI has rightfully faced in modern times, I think that this is an absoutley perfect example of how it can be utilized in a positive way, bringing back Shady and that iconic sound that just sounds so damn good.
I've only just recently listened to Eminem's Evil Twin and the song "Evil" on the new album now feels like a callback to that song. I also feel like, no matter which order (forward or reverse) neither Marshall or Shady is killed. In the forward order, the skit before "Somebody Save Me" Shady is wandering around again after being shot, showing that he's unkillable, in the backwards order, Marshall was only being drugged at the end, just my thoughts
My top five is: 1. Lucifer 2. Road Rage 3. Houdini 4. Antichrist 5. Somebody Save Me Love your ranking crypt! The only choice I disagree with is putting road rage so low, I think the beat is incredible. Also I love the song you put at the end of the video, if my heart had wings is one of my favorites from your discography!
Your full first listen was the only reaction video I actually watched all the way through. For some reason out of all the reaction channels you are the most qualified for these reviews. I can feel your unbiased views and your genuine love for the album. It made me love the album even more than I already did. I've been bumping it non-stop from job site to job site while I'm working.
Part of me agrees that it should end after GC2. But on the very next track, he lays down a verse, essentially as Marshall, talking as personal about his bullying than he ever has before, sans Shady. Then we get two “diss” verses by Eminem, and then two songs as Marshall (to his family) He had shed the persona (maybe?) and these were some of the most personal verses ever from him. 1. Fuel 2. GC2 3. Somebody Save Me 4. Antichrist 5. Renaissance Oh man, that was hard. Road Rage is the only skip track, agreed.
Agreed with the list, I would say in regards to having the album finish after GC2, you notice all the songs afterwards are just Eminem style. No more slim Shady after he shoots him. I think that was the idea anyway.
My top 5 is prob Lucifer, Evil, Antichrist, Fuel, Houdini. However Brand New Dance has launched up my power rankings and deserves an honorable mention. Like you said it's insanely catchy lol.
Man I can’t stop listening to the whole album but I catch myself doing the woof woof woof in road rage so badly that I love that song so much now. So my list goes like this 1. Habits, fuel, Lucifer, evil, Antichrist, guilty conscience 2, renaissance (I can’t pick just one of this) 2. Road rage 3. Bad one 4. Houdini 5. Tobey 6. Save me 7. Temporary 8. Head Honcho 9. New Dance 10. Trouble I think I can’t really not listen to the whole album because I love the concept order backwards so it’s really hard to rank this lol I do agree with 9.9/10 it really is amazing.
Heres my full top list including the Expanded Edtion: 19-Road Rage 18-Bad One 17-Renaissance ( I just wish it was longer) 16-Trouble Also needs to be longer 15-Fuel Shady Edtion the original is just so fucking good 14-Brand New Dance 13-Like My Shit 12-Kyrie & Luka 11-Tobey 10-Houndi 9-Habits 8-Head Honcho 7-Temporary 6-Somebody Save Me 5-Evil 4-Lucifer 3-Antichrist 2-Fuel 1- Guilty Conscience 2
I know lotsa people love Fuel and yeah the verses are sick, but my top 5 are Evil, Brand New Dance, Houdini, Antichrist, GC2, and I think in somewhat this order. These songs just take me back man. Insanely nostalgic listens. Undoubtedly Fuel is comparable and in terms of "badassness, boss top rapper dawgs" I place it above all of these, but nothing beats the funky beat and the hook on Evil bro takes me back to Marshall Mathers and all these fun songs like Rain Man.
Fantano needs to see this lol. For me, this is my 4th favorite album behind Eminem Show, MMLP, and Encore (childhood nostalgia factor). My top 5 songs are the exact same as your top 5 as well! I really wish Renaissance was twice as long.
My top 5 1: Guilty Conscience 2 2: Lucifer 3: Fuel ( it’s only this low because I didn’t really like it on my first listen but could become #2 soon) 4: Habits 5: Brand New Dance
5 - Tobey (hated it at first now replayed like 100 times lol) 4 - Fuel 3 - Guilty Conscience 2 2 - Houdini 1 - Evil Banger of an album. I also agree Head Honcho was kind of a miss, it’s one i tend to skip.
Here’s my list: (excluding skits) 1. Fuel 2. Temporary 3. Guilty Conscience 2 4. Renaissance 5. Lucifer 6. Evil 7. Brand New Dance 8. Antichrist 9. Bad One 10. Somebody Save Me 11. Road Rage 12. Trouble 13. Habits 14. Houdini 15. Tobey 16. Head Honcho Really my top five can be switched around, I just love all those songs
My top 5 are: 1. Guilty Conscience 2 2. Fuel 3. Lucifer 4. Evil 5. Toss-up between Antichrist and Brand New Dance I think Renaissance would be top 3 if it was longer, but as is it's a lot lower. I agree that Road Rage is the only skip. Though I will say I'd much rather listen to that song than many of the "bad" songs on his other albums. I do think the second half after GC2 is a lot weaker than the first half, but the songs are still all good. TDOSS is easily his most consistent album in a very, very long time.

For me it goes Fuel, GC2, AntiChrist, Evil, Lucifer. I actually really like Road Rage. Not so much for the lyrical skill but just the whole vibe. As usual, the two singles are my least favorite. I know a lot of people like houdini but I never liked the radio made “without me” stuff.

Renaissance
Has it been confirmed that it's AI Eminem rapping on Renaissance? He did do his old flow on Stepping Stone.
Also, I think the point of Antichrist is that he goes through ALL his flows, so in that sense the fast and choppy flow makes sense. Great review!
I dont think its AI. Listen to Renaissance and listen to songs on the SSLP. His voice is deeper on Renaissance, I think hes just plugging his nose

My top 5
5-Evil-That chorus and the super clever entendres in this jeeeez!
4-Temporary-I grew up with so much Eminem since I was maybe 10-11 years old and this brought me back to Mockingbird Hallies Song and When I’m Gone. Very beautiful but a tear jerker.
3-Somebody Save Me-Being an only child in Tennessee and my family suffering from addiction really brings me home and this is pure amazement.
2-Fuel-I mean Crypt said it best lol
1-Tobey-I can’t help it I think everybody had amazing verses and the hook catches me. I was really impressed especially with Big Sean’s verse
I agree quite a bit with what you have to say about most of these songs and your rankings, even though any individual song I might slide up or down just a few spots. It’s so hard for me to nail down my top five from the album - I feel like rankings could change just based on my mood any given day, and could change just from sitting with the album a bit longer. And if speculations of a follow-up project (or maybe two 👀) coming out in the near future are correct, that could re-contextualize things. Anyway, my best go at it as of today…
5. “Renaissance” - The perfect opening track. The beat is amazing (produced by Eminem and Louis Resto) - reminds me of a cross between something from The Eminem Show and Relapse. Gets you hyped for what’s to come - “I’m gonna show your ass why I’m still a pain in it.”
4. “Habits” - So much classic Slim! 😂 Literally made me laugh out loud. Really smooth flow and delivery. White Gold with a solid hook.
3. “Fuel” - I was not familiar with JID coming into this. He definitely understood the assignment. But, I rate this song this high solely for Em’s verse - he went crazy. I still have “Best Friend” as his best one ever, with “Medicine Man” closely behind. His verse here in “Fuel” is in discussion for that third spot.
2. “Lucifer” - They just nailed this one. A classic, badass Dre beat, classic Slim talk, amazing wordplay, and Sly Piper is niiiiice on that hook.
1. “Guilty Conscience 2” - I just love so much about this one. It’s so damn compelling -introspective and meta. To me, this album is essentially a movie, and this song feels like the climax of the movie. The protagonist and antagonist in a one-on-one battle - and it’s kinda up to the listener to determine which role which character assumes. (For a lot of listeners, they find the Slim Shady part of Em’s catalogue to be the best and most replay-able.) There are a lot of little details that callback specifically to “When I’m Gone” (pre-OD) and to Relapse (first album post-OD). The haunting choir in the background of the track reminds me of “Underground” (think of the promo video of a hand reaching out of the grave). And the melding of Slim’s and Marshall’s voices and the discussion of looking in the mirror is very reminiscent of “My Darling.” The mirror discussion also calls back to Em looking in the mirror several times in “When I’m Gone.” Then we have an alarm go off with “When I’m Gone” playing in the background. An incredible amount of thought and attention went into this track.
Honorable mentions for “Brand New Dance” and “Temporary.” I had a hard time not including them. “Brand New Dance” literally makes me start dancing and laughing every time I hear it. It’s so stupid, but in the best diabolical way. 😂 It’s a bop. On the very opposite end of the spectrum, “Temporary” is insanely beautiful. It’s so sweet and sentimental, but it’s such a tearjerker. Big props to Skylar Grey - gorgeous voice, great co-production with Eminem that just feels so ethereal and leaves room for the song to breathe. The cuts from the recordings Eminem had with Hailie are precious and show who he is and has always been as a father.

Top 5 for me.

2. Bad ones
3. Houdini
4. Habits
5. Trouble
Oddly enough, most of your album review rankings are almost song for song exactly the same as my rankings lol but on this album we have very different rankings.
My issue with GC2 is I had my own idea of what it would sound like, I would of liked to at least have an ending similar to the original where slim sets Dre off and by the end is on the same side as slim. and because of that I feel like that song could of been alot better so I over hyped it and got disappointed lol still a great song though.
Top 5:
5: Brand New Dance (I love encore)
4: Houdini
3: Evil
2: Lucifer

Top 5....Fuel, Lucifer, Bad One, Habits, Evil. No order but honorable mention Temporary, like you said Skylar was absolutely incredible 👏

For me this album is his best album since Recovery.

I don’t really listen to the rest because of the sad songs, I like the chorus on Road Rage and agree w the song, it’s just a weird song like you said, and Brand New Dance isn’t on my self made playlist but if it comes on, it’s too catchy to skip but it’s not a preference
I liked every song on the album the only skip for me is also Road Rage, I don’t skip the other songs if they come on but I don’t play them because they’re too sad or just too weird
This is such a solid ranking crypt!! I definitely agree, some may be up in the air but def nailed it
The more i listen to it, the more i love it. Great album
Good list, I wouldn't argue much with your ordering. Would definitely put Tobey higher, forgot it was on the album at one point and when it came on it blows a lot of his other verses out of the water. If Renaissance onyk had a chorus and another verse it would be top 3, totally agree. Love that sounding Eminem, with the cadence and delivery, so good.

For people saying it's better than MTBMB I think you're crazy. That album was amazing. Recovery and MMLP2 were also better, Revival was even better. Too much emphasis on the crazy shit on this album and not many deeper more thought provoking songs which is why it doesn't have much replay ability for me. Better than Kamikaze that's about it for me. All other album had at least 3 or 4 brilliant songs, what's brilliant on this, maybe GC 2 or Fuel, that's it.
Think of songs like Darkness on MTBMB, Castle/Arose on Revival, Bad Guy and Legacy on MMLP2, Nothing on this is as good as those
Agree to disagree with you on that one bud. Even if other albums had more thought provoking/content filled songs, the amount of skippable songs and/or bad production bring some of those albums down quite a bit. Revival was great but the production was horrible, and MTBMB was amazing but it had quite a few fillers/skips as well.
This album didn't have a single bad instrumental, it had some of the best mixing and technical rapping of his entire discography, and (for me personally) it has no skips. It's also his first fully conceptual album (other than Revival, but this is more complex) and extremely creative, especially using all those voices to tell a story.
He gave us fans a bit of everything we've wanted while also doing his own thing, which culminates in deep retrospection in GC2 and explains where he's at in life in addition with Temporary. Then ends with Somebody Save me which restarts the cycle of death and rebirth for the concept.
Idk. I definitely think this is in his top 5 albums of all time. I've had it on repeat since it came out, so I disagree with it having no replay value.
@@D.Ghostt I didn't go as far as saying no replay value. The songs I put high on my list will go into my Eminem best of playlist but few would make my general music playlist. In fairness Revival did have some terrible songs like Heat, Untouchable I find hard to listen to, MTBMB didn't have many fillers. Thought it was a brilliant double album. All of Eminem's work since recovery has been extremely Technical, including Revival, but I'm not buying the whole concept thing with this one, I think that's something he decided later on to make it seem like there was some sort of idea behind it. It's a lot of the usual pop cultural references he has always done, but there's not really anything on this album that makes me go wow. GC 2 doesn't hit the same way the last verse on Bad Guy did, not a patch on it, but similar idea. The more heartfelt songs like Temporary and Somebody Save me are nice, but nothing new here either and was done better before on other albums. No uplifting motivational tracks, although Fuel, Renaissance and Tobey see him get some serious flows on. It just doesn't his for me like some of his other stuff, but I'll still be listening to it over again for the next few weeks.
Fun Slim Shady antics
Guilty Conscience 2 could have been a video and had Dre as the voice of reason and Slim Shady as the monster they created.
I liked the Cash Money beat flip, wanted more of this concept
Save Me and Temporary are reminders of the emotionally driven Eminem records!
Looking forward to the next album and where he plans to take his sound.
Would love a full legends album with Eminem / Lil Wayne / Jay Z / Nas
Prod by Dre
As of now my ranking of the songs has shifted to:
- Antichrist
- Habits
- Renaissance
- Fuel
- Houdini
- Guilty Conscience 2
- Brand New Dance
- Evil
- Bad One
- Lucifer
- Somebody Save Me
- Tobey
- Temporary
- Trouble
- Head Honcho
-Road Rage
It has changed so many times though lol. Some songs grew on me and started to stick after a few listens that didn't hit the first time as much.
Absolutely wild that Brand New Dance is that high on your list man.
Solid list, Solid Album 8/10 for me. Only wish Renaissance was longer, and maybe have some stronger chorus hooks on some of the songs.
Hey man! I think your ranking is excellent. Very close to how I would have ranked it, especially the top two, I’ve said those two are my top two from the first listen.

My top 5 .1 Fuel 2 houdini 3 habits 4 Lucifer 5 Brand new dance
@Crypt in the song where he said he was done insulting people (GC2) you’re forgetting that he woke up from a nightmare at the end meaning that was just a dream he’s not actually done also it entails the fact that he didn’t actually kill shady because it was again a dream
My top 5
1) Renaissance(renewed) Habits (this is 1 song imo...the names even fit)
2) Fuel
3) Guilty Conscience 2
4) Lucifer

Top five imo
1. Guilty conscience 2
2. Fuel
3. Temporary
4. Save me

The songs he does for his daughters are always good. Mocking bird and when I’m gone are a couple I always listen to.

The first 6 are really interchangeable for me. I love them all. The album is a 10/10 for me. It's becoming my favorite album. There's so much to take from this album. It's a roller-coaster ride. It makes you laugh, it makes you think, it makes you wanna conquer the world, and it makes you cry. All within an hour. It's a trip for real. There's really not a song I don't like. Road Rage might be least favorite, but I don't hate it. It gives me a message of accepting myself, no matter what anyone says about me. Lol
Completely agree with where you have put all these songs
My top 5
- fuel
- brand new dance
- renaissance
- evil
- houdini
nice review bro❤
I'm a huge fan from south africa followed you since 2019 big fan of u bro
Road rage is one of my Favorites
I find Road Rage to be placing the mindset at a higher plane of understanding, and that can easily be misinterpreted, but it's both a good and bad thing. It's not talking overly smart at all, but rather, trying to explain something more complex than what is being said. It's just about body positivity, but there's a concept of how positivity overrides negativity, and how you should never care for the negative side. In general, this song may not appeal, but after you get the deeper undertone to it, things change. Either way, I just think it's underrated.
My list:
1. Fuel
2. Guilty Conscience 2
3. Evil
4. Brand New Dance
5. Houdini
6. Lucifer
7. Temporary
8. Somebody Save Me
9. Habits
10. Renaissance
11. Antichrist (I actually don’t love the hook on this which brings it down)
12. Tobey
13. Trouble
14. Bad One
15. Head Honcho
16. Guess who’s back
17. Road Rage
18. All you got
19. Breaking News
That's what I thought about Trouble, the beat build up is so cool, it could been hell of a song
With all the scrouteny that AI has rightfully faced in modern times, I think that this is an absoutley perfect example of how it can be utilized in a positive way, bringing back Shady and that iconic sound that just sounds so damn good.
Top 5 :
1- Evil
2- Habits
3- Fuel
4- Renaissance
5- Antichrist
But still my favourite song "conceptually" is GC2.
I've only just recently listened to Eminem's Evil Twin and the song "Evil" on the new album now feels like a callback to that song. I also feel like, no matter which order (forward or reverse) neither Marshall or Shady is killed. In the forward order, the skit before "Somebody Save Me" Shady is wandering around again after being shot, showing that he's unkillable, in the backwards order, Marshall was only being drugged at the end, just my thoughts
I currently have this as #4 behind his obvious 3 album run, but I could see this passing SSLP for me
Background getting me excited for Christmas
My top five is:
1. Lucifer
2. Road Rage
3. Houdini
4. Antichrist
5. Somebody Save Me
Love your ranking crypt! The only choice I disagree with is putting road rage so low, I think the beat is incredible. Also I love the song you put at the end of the video, if my heart had wings is one of my favorites from your discography!
Your full first listen was the only reaction video I actually watched all the way through. For some reason out of all the reaction channels you are the most qualified for these reviews. I can feel your unbiased views and your genuine love for the album. It made me love the album even more than I already did. I've been bumping it non-stop from job site to job site while I'm working.
Part of me agrees that it should end after GC2.
But on the very next track, he lays down a verse, essentially as Marshall, talking as personal about his bullying than he ever has before, sans Shady.
Then we get two “diss” verses by Eminem, and then two songs as Marshall (to his family) He had shed the persona (maybe?) and these were some of the most personal verses ever from him.
1. Fuel
2. GC2
3. Somebody Save Me
4. Antichrist
5. Renaissance
Oh man, that was hard. Road Rage is the only skip track, agreed.
Hello Crypt! My top 5:
1. Fuel
2. Bad one
3. Guilty Conscience 2
4. Antichrist
5. Head Honcho
Agreed with the list, I would say in regards to having the album finish after GC2, you notice all the songs afterwards are just Eminem style. No more slim Shady after he shoots him. I think that was the idea anyway.
My top 5 is prob Lucifer, Evil, Antichrist, Fuel, Houdini. However Brand New Dance has launched up my power rankings and deserves an honorable mention. Like you said it's insanely catchy lol.
I would’ve put “renaissance” at the top, but I like your ranking other than that
My top 5
1. Habits
2. Antichrist
3. Road rage
4. Trouble
5. Renaissance
Man I can’t stop listening to the whole album but I catch myself doing the woof woof woof in road rage so badly that I love that song so much now.
So my list goes like this
1. Habits, fuel, Lucifer, evil, Antichrist, guilty conscience 2, renaissance (I can’t pick just one of this)
2. Road rage
3. Bad one
4. Houdini
5. Tobey
6. Save me
7. Temporary
8. Head Honcho
9. New Dance
10. Trouble
I think I can’t really not listen to the whole album because I love the concept order backwards so it’s really hard to rank this lol I do agree with 9.9/10 it really is amazing.
Crypt.
You’re awesome.
Thank you for existing.

Nice hat my guy, I hope Paul takes the European Open this weekend!
Album has been in my head ever since I listened to it when it first dropped
I know lotsa people love Fuel and yeah the verses are sick, but my top 5 are Evil, Brand New Dance, Houdini, Antichrist, GC2, and I think in somewhat this order. These songs just take me back man. Insanely nostalgic listens. Undoubtedly Fuel is comparable and in terms of "badassness, boss top rapper dawgs" I place it above all of these, but nothing beats the funky beat and the hook on Evil bro takes me back to Marshall Mathers and all these fun songs like Rain Man.
Fantano needs to see this lol.
For me, this is my 4th favorite album behind Eminem Show, MMLP, and Encore (childhood nostalgia factor).
My top 5 songs are the exact same as your top 5 as well! I really wish Renaissance was twice as long.
Fantano wont get it,atleast he didn't completely TRASH IT ,Lol
Fantano doesn't need to see shit
@@xydanmusicWtf do you mean?
There's a bonus track if you had pre-ordered the album. There's 20 songs.
#20 is "Kyrie and Luka ft. 2Chainz"
There is two bonus tracks.
There's 2 bonus songs making it 21 total songs
One of the bonus songs got
Leaked and I added it to my Spotify list it’s a dope song where it goes “yeah yeah yeah yeah”
My top 5
1: Guilty Conscience 2
2: Lucifer
3: Fuel ( it’s only this low because I didn’t really like it on my first listen but could become #2 soon)
4: Habits
5: Brand New Dance
1. Fuel
2. Brand New Dance
3. Temporary

5. Habits
5 - Tobey (hated it at first now replayed like 100 times lol)
4 - Fuel
3 - Guilty Conscience 2
2 - Houdini
1 - Evil
Banger of an album. I also agree Head Honcho was kind of a miss, it’s one i tend to skip.
Here’s my list: (excluding skits)
1. Fuel
2. Temporary
3. Guilty Conscience 2
4. Renaissance
5. Lucifer
6. Evil
7. Brand New Dance
8. Antichrist
9. Bad One
10. Somebody Save Me
11. Road Rage
12. Trouble
13. Habits
14. Houdini
15. Tobey
16. Head Honcho
Really my top five can be switched around, I just love all those songs
My top 5 are:
1. Guilty Conscience 2
2. Fuel
3. Lucifer
4. Evil
5. Toss-up between Antichrist and Brand New Dance
I think Renaissance would be top 3 if it was longer, but as is it's a lot lower.
I agree that Road Rage is the only skip. Though I will say I'd much rather listen to that song than many of the "bad" songs on his other albums. I do think the second half after GC2 is a lot weaker than the first half, but the songs are still all good. TDOSS is easily his most consistent album in a very, very long time.
My Top 5 are:
1. Guilty Consience 2
2. Fuel
3. Habits
4. Antichrist
5. Temporary
This is a badass album. So tough man.
