Relapse wasn't his best, but it sure as hell was better than Encore. Yeah, Throw It Up was kinda lame. But Hell: The Sequel and Recovery were really good. Yeah, some of Recovery was border-line pop, but that shit was deep.
Songs like You're Never Over, Talkin 2 Myself and Going Through Changes were deep. Hell, Space Bound had meaning.
Cold Wind Blows, Almost Famous, Cinderella Man, and Untitled were very enjoyable. I love how he made Cinderella Man to a beat that mostly feet stomping rhythmically.
