Discography Of Eminem [portable] ❲Recent ✔❳
was a calculated pivot. Abandoning the accents and horror themes, Eminem adopted a screaming, "shout-rap" delivery and pop-rock choruses. "Not Afraid" and "Love the Way You Lie" (with Rihanna) became colossal anthems of redemption. Critics debated whether the album was a genuine evolution or a commercial sell-out. Regardless, it proved he could dominate radio again. "No Love" (feat. Lil Wayne) remains a venomous highlight. The Technical Peak & The Late Era (2013–Present) The Marshall Mathers LP 2 (2013) is a legacy sequel that works. Produced largely by Rick Rubin, it strips back the maximalist pop for boom-bap beats. "Rap God" is a Guinness World Record-holding flex of linguistic velocity. "Bad Guy" serves as a sequel to "Stan," 13 years later, featuring one of the most devastating beat switches in history. While nostalgic, it proves the technical skill is sharper than ever.
is the apology for Revival . Dropped without warning, this is a spiteful, 45-minute assault on mumble rap, critics, and modern hip-hop. "The Ringer" is a flamethrower of lyrical venom. "Killshot" (a bonus track/MGK diss) ended a rival’s career overnight. It is not a classic album, but it is a masterclass in damage control.
is his masterpiece and a document of psychological warfare. Recorded amid lawsuits, protests, and accusations of misogyny and homophobia, Eminem turned the volume of his paranoia to 11. "Stan" invented a new archetype for obsessive fandom. "The Way I Am" is a furious rejection of record label pressure. Conversely, "The Real Slim Shady" is pop perfection. This is the album where the line between Marshall, Shady, and the celebrity Eminem begins to blur dangerously. It remains one of the best-selling rap albums of all time. discography of eminem
marks the turning point. The alter ego—Slim Shady—is introduced: a cartoonishly violent, pill-popping sociopath. Dr. Dre heard this tape and famously declared, "Find him." The foundation was laid. The Golden Age: The Holy Trinity (1999–2002) This three-album run is arguably the most dominant stretch in rap history.
is universally considered his nadir. A chaotic mix of rock samples, pop features (Ed Sheeran, Beyoncé), and clumsy political commentary. "Walk on Water" is insecure; "Untouchable" tries to critique racism but is sonically grating. The album was memed into oblivion. Eminem responded immediately. was a calculated pivot
represents the maturation of the artist. He took over more production duties, resulting in a stadium-rock-infused hip-hop sound. The rage is still present ( "White America" is a searing critique of his own commercial success and racial privilege), but it is tempered by introspection. "Cleanin' Out My Closet" is a direct address to his mother; "Sing for the Moment" samples Aerosmith to defend his influence on angry youth; "Till I Collapse" remains the ultimate workout anthem. This album is Eminem realizing he is no longer an underdog but a watchdog. The Descent: The Murky Depths (2004–2005) Encore (2004) is the first crack in the facade. Suffering from a crippling addiction to sleeping pills (Zolpidem), Eminem released a scattershot album. Classics like "Mockingbird" (a tender apology to his daughter Hailie) and "Like Toy Soldiers" (a tragic reflection on the murder of his friend Proof) sit awkwardly next to goofy, half-baked skits ( "Rain Man" ) and the bizarre accent-driven "Big Weenie." The album signals an artist burning out in real time. Following Proof’s death in 2006, Eminem retreated into a near-fatal drug coma. The Resurrection: The Sober Second Act (2009–2013) Relapse (2009) is the controversial comeback. After five years of silence, Eminem returned with a thick, horrorcore accent and producer Dr. Dre at his most cinematic. Tracks like "3 a.m." and "Stay Wide Awake" are technically masterful displays of internal rhyme schemes, but the subject matter—serial killing, rape, and pill abuse—alienated mainstream fans. The single "We Made You" felt dated. However, "Beautiful" and "Deja Vu" (a chillingly honest account of his addiction) rescue the album. It is a flawed, uncomfortable, but necessary purge.
No other rapper has so publicly dissected their own decay. To listen to his albums in order is to witness a man die, resurrect, and learn to walk again—all in double time. Critics debated whether the album was a genuine
is the commercial detonation. Produced largely by Dr. Dre and the Bass Brothers, the album is a Looney Tunes horror flick. Tracks like "My Name Is" introduced the world to absurdist humor, while "Guilty Conscience" staged a morality play between Dre and Shady. But the depth arrives in "Rock Bottom" —a stark, heartbreaking portrait of welfare poverty—and "97 Bonnie & Clyde" (a disturbing fantasy about disposing of his baby’s mother’s body). The album won Best Rap Album at the Grammys, announcing a chaotic new king.
