Em and Dre recorded enough material around that time for 3 CD's, and some of the unreleased material is rumored to be amazing. i wish Em didn't scrap Relapse 2 and give us bullshit like "Not Afraid" instead. hopefully one day he'll still release that record..

RELAPSE to me is a big letdown. The beats are pretty amazing, but I only like less than half of the finished tracks. Felt like Em was in jrkoff mode recordign that album. TOo bad. Then he puts out RECOVERY which I figured would be the record I wanted this to be -- but it really really wasn't. I don't get it, all his recent verses on other peoples' tracks have been amazing.
