I agree I always thought that the eminem show was his best cd, Marshall Mathers and the slim shady lp were awesome but i thought that the eminem show was the most focused.
Encore had some good singles but it also had a lot of filler, I feel that it was bc he was tired. He didn't have the material to work with in his early career, he was no longer broke, he settled issues with Kim and his mom on previous cds. thats why i felt his best stuff was about Haley, bc she was the important part of his life at that point.
