Personally I skipped quite a few tracks after my initial listening review. Some of them are a little too cheesy for my taste in hindsight. I am not a fan of joke style raps and I preferred his more personal/serious cuts. If you don’t find some of those tracks corny I can definitely see why it’s more enjoyable.

The song is all about being addicted to drugs and needing help off of them, its kind of sad in a way. I would understand slips like Kim, that song is fucked up and some cannot handle it, maybe even Amityville for that, once again, terrible Bizarre verse.
I LOVE Blueprint, but MMLP is on another level. They're both classic albums, but MMLP is one of the most impactful albums of all time, not just in hip hop, but music as a whole. Its the MMLP's lyrical display that wound up influencing major players today such as Kendrick and Cole.
When he dropped The MMLP, the entire world moved. And it was a time in Em's career when he made his ridiculously technical rapping seem so easy by combining genius level lyrical content, story telling, and an almost conversational style delivery that made you almost forget that he was rhyming, let alone spitting such high level intricate and complex rhyme schemes. Then, when you factor in what would be some of the greatest comedy and sarcasm ever heard on hip-hop album, it's icing on the cake. There's no debate.
Somebody needs to explain to me the "MMLP lyrics have aged poorly" narrative. That is something I've never heard anyone within HipHop say but it's somehow become a narrative on Twitter etc. People must just be looking for a way to discredit this masterpiece. BTW - both Em and Jay are GOATS, legends and in my top 5 of all time. Got love for both.
The production definitely is on some tracks but I don’t know how the lyrics have. I guess you could argue the terminology and style aren’t in line with what we see today for Eminem or other elite artists but that’s pretty much most early 00s rappers. He probably wouldn’t “get away with” the same language but that’s irrelevant to whether the lyrics have aged well. One thing I will say is a lot of the lines on this LP are a little too cheesy or corny for my liking but on the tracks where he’s serious, it’s an all time level performance up there with Jay-Z etc.
I mean they have aged pretty badly. Not just Eminem but in general I think anything that relies on shock value ages horribly because all that’s based on the time it was made, and once time moves on it doesn’t hit the same. It just comes off try hard and corny. Still a classic album and super well made it’s just such a product of its time with the shock value and all the constant dated pop culture references and also just a lot of stuff that looks super corny in retrospect, like the constant nsync/Britney spears disses.
It’s also an album fueled on hate, which is something Eminem has said. Which unless your in the mood for that it just makes it not fun to go back and listen to. Eminem music just reminds me of when I was an edgy 12 year old and that’s not something I want to be reminded of, regardless of if the music is objectively good or not and I think a lot of people feel that same way.
Ehhh, those Pop star disses/references are only in 2 songs - Marshall Mathers and The Real Slim Shady -so I think some people use that as a crutch for that argument. Anyway definitely a classic album. People are gonna always find reasons to tear down art. I’ve heard people say Illmatic is boring so everyone has their opinions I guess. Can’t be mad at it.
He brought up the album sales for MMLP because it’s impressive that an album with such violent and graphic subject matter could be embraced in a mainstream way.

Artisty: Eminem Jay-Z has great flows and delivery but honestly nothing he says impresses me. His story's and messages are way more interesting on albums like Reasonable Doubt and The Black album, in fact this album just feels like a career victory lap. But Eminems flows and delivery's were on top form and he was in an interesting place in his career. He doubles down on the controversy, goes personal talking about his drug problems, his mother and his girlfriend all while showing immense technical skills. Production: Blueprint Although MMLP has great production, The Blueprint has some of the greatest hip hop beats of all time. All of the beats here are timeless. Impact: MMLP hands down. When it's all said and done this will stand as THE hip hop album of the early 2000s. Here we have the biggest music star of the 21st century with all eyes on him, after he's been blamed for a tragedy that was felt through the whole country and seeing if he backs down. Not only does he double down on his edgyness, he where's his heart on his sleeve, he talks about his struggles with fame, his family and relationships all while being hungry to prove himself as one of the best rappers of all time.
I think its kind of funny how Ant is defending an album that's not in his top five albums against an album that is in it. Also Love the channel keep making more album vs. album videos
Going with Luca on this for sure, The Marshall Mathers LP a timeless album and every track is unskippable, the production is amazing and have a g-funk flavour from Dre's influences from his previous works on g-funk records, can't see how this'd be a discussion that any of the producers on The Blueprint beat Dr. Dre and Mel-Man, Em's reckless energy and venomous flows flow smoothly and compliment the beats too, the whole album is fun & entertaining to listen to and the concepts of Em's twisted psyche and horrorcore themes is done effortlessly
@@leorodrigues9596 Substance ain't expected so much from Eminem so I don't see what point u tryna make, and nah Kanye is a great producer but ain't no way I'm putting him over Dre I don't see anything corny coming from Em, he's always been authentic as an artist since day one

@@mo2k638not sure how you measure cultural impact. If anything, the term Stan is probably the most significant and tangible piece of pop culture to come from these two albums
it depends on what your values are, mmlp definitely excels in artistry but The Blueprint is one of the best produced rap albums ever, comes down to preference
I overall like Jay's discography more than Eminem's but I like MMLP more. I had never heard anything like the tracks Stan or Kim before. Not that Jay-Z isn't special too , but early Eminem was truly something new in hip hop and music in those early albums.
MMLP. And I dont subscribe at all to the fact it hasn't aged well. It sounds amazing to this day. And objectively speaking, its still played more to this day as well

This is one is tough because clearly MMLPs lyricism and Ems performance outdoes Jays. But the production on the blueprint blows MMLP out the water. If you wanted to show an alien what hip-hop is an the highest most pristine form of it, then show them the blueprint. But if you want a master in artistry and getting deep into the psyche of an artist, I don’t think any album in any genre gets closer to Em on the MMLP. I have to give it to the MMLP, even though I hold the blueprint to a slightly higher degree because sometimes you aren’t always listening for lyrics and the blueprint is the best at just vibing. Great match up regardless Edit: after Ant’s point of the blueprint being Kanye’s genesis I thought if either album were to be taken away from history, I freaked out and immediately thought of having no Kanye and so it’s the blueprint hands down.
Love this series guys👏🏼 For me MMLP is clear, Em’s Best album imo:) And The Way I Am is also my favorite song by him and btw would like to see Illmatic in the next one;)
Mmlp is just classic and legendary one of the best groundbreaking lyrical no skips albums ever made ..its just flawless and on bluprint the best song eminem gave jay for renegade em at this time is just untouchable i like jay alot but this isnt a debate mmlp over blueprint
Blueprint for me. It helped kanye who have a goat category and a billionaire like jay z himself. It sparked nas back into beast mode. Being wordy as a wordsmith doesn't mean you a better rapper. Eminem amazing but that's not a good argument on who's the better rapper.
Skill wise JayZ can't outrap Eminem even in my dreams Wtf are u talking about Even after hearing RENEGADE SONG'S EMINEM VERSE HE LITERALLY COULDN'T TOP IT IN BLUEPRINT ALBUM sorry but I am not even Eminem fan But EMINEM AND NAS> JAYZ BY MILES
I side with Lu on this one based on considering the time frame and content risk Em took with writing MMLP. In my opinion MMLP is an album that only Em could have made verses an album like The Blueprint that could have arguably been duplicated in style by other rappers at that time period.
@@mo2k638 Jay makes his raps yes. But he is too scared to go toe to toe with artist and is often sneak dissing. Em will say your name. Jay does things behind the scenes and Em addresses things straight forward. Jay will be known as an icon for his success but Em will be known as a rapper who wasn’t scared to take on anyone. Em’s lyrical abilities exceeds Jay
@@vickylove9824 em ended pathetic careers I like how you Stan’s make it seem like em battled heavyweight lyricist when his track record of beef are pop stars and corny rappers like mgk everlast ja rule Britney Spears Christina Aguilera iggy etc at least every legendary emcee has went at another nicca please
@@vickylove9824 you a whole stan talking about jay does things behind the scene you dont even listen to jay you're pop fan em is a legend in thes eyes of stans he's been dropping mediocre albums since 04 Eminem show being his last solid piece of work while even his old stuff aging like crap, jay z is one of the goats if not the goat and eminem himself said it on Twitter that jay z was the goat also on till I collapse Jay z was one of the rappers em said was better then him and even in 2002 when em won the Grammy during his speech he pulled out a piece of paper and shouted out all the rappers he looked up to and that influenced him and he learned from and jay was one of them but you stans hate the fact and will always be in denial that Marshall idolizes jay z 😂😂
mmlp washes blueprint, the production is better on blueprint tho... but these arent the best projects from EM and Jay imo, I'd say Eminem Show and Reasonable Doubt are their best (RD is the the better project by quite a bit tho)
Lmao I never knew this was an actual debate I thought about it in my head last year 😂 for me mmlp is the more enjoyable classic because of Em’s humor but The blueprint’s literally the blueprint for how to make a classic

Hey NFR Podcast. Could you make a video predicting the 2022 grammy nominations rap catergories i.e. best rap performance, best melodic rap performance, best rap song and best rap album? Keep the amazing videos. I'm a huge fan :)
here's the thing, i prefer bp and think it's better in terms of production; but mmlp is better crafted, whether it is the lyrics or the influence. for impact, i think they're equal because i personally relate more to bp.
MMLP for sure. The wordplay is amazing, the lyrics are amazing, the jokes, and who can forget The Real Slim Shady, Kill You, I'm Back, and Marshall Mathers. JayZ is good too tho.

Both albums are quality first and foremost Personally Em on MMLP is more layered out cinematically sharped very minimalistic on the beats from the base brothers and Dre for Em to deliver the songs and putting his heart onto the tracks. Kill you, Marshall Mathers, The Way I Am, Real slim shady, Criminal. Blueprint is a pretty solid album but overhyped I felt the production overshadowed Some of Jay Performance (Heart in the City, Neva Change, U don’t Know) personally imo if we’re discussing Conceptually, artistic standpoint, Sampling Reasonable doubt is much better He’ll I’ll take Black Album & American Gangster over it.

MMLP for Artistry for sure, No Question. Blueprint for Production. Impact...idk. I gotta see their argument for this...and make my decision after they prove their points.
Although I prefer MMLP, I think ant overall had better arguments. Lu tended to make points and when ant added to it to strengthen his argument Lu would say “it’s not relevant” 🤣great video though and it all comes down to preference.
Marshall Matthers LP. To add to Impact. J Cole sounded like Nas & Eminem in 2000 when he was a Teenager and he was good. Which Rappers Rapped like Jay after Blueprint ? Yes Blueprint gave us Kanye but MMLP gave Kanye those guys to look up to him. So had it not been for MMLP Ye would not have those guys lookin up to him.
@@bigdaddylocdiesel5688 Nah what are you tryna prove You saying it as if only those guys influence Cole when he said on several different times his main influence is Tupac, Nas ,JayZ , Eminem and Andre 3000 but you making sound like Jay ain't got no influence on Cole whatsoever only Em when he has stated this multiple times.
I take the Blueprint any day however Stan and The Way I Am do make mmlp a competitor. However I think the Blueprint is more relevant and is a better concept. The Blueprint also has much better production that to me holds up a lot better today. The Blueprint has for me stood the test of time much better. I think they’re both classic albums however there’s no debate for me when you look at consistency, longevity, and relevance which to me are the 3 main factors in judging classic albums
Tbh I prefer Reasonable Doubt and The Black Album to The Bluprint. It had a couple of filler tracks. Lyrically it was solid but RD had more moments which blew me away.
Blueprint is incredible and it's probably a top 10 album oat but I'd say it's MMLP even tho the lyrics have not aged well cus of its edgyness I'm a Kanye Stan and I really like jay but I gotta give it to Eminem
@@handlebyme Mmlp was a big album it went diamond but it isn’t held in the same regard as blueprint as far as cultural impactIn in 2019, the album was selected by the Library of Congress for preservation in the United States National Recording Registry for being "culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant,” being the first entry created in the 21st century.
I’ll try my best to explain why Blueprint is superior while simultaneously giving a quick review of each. The production of an album is very significant, and you’d be hard pressed to find a better combination than Kanye West and Just Blaze at their peak. Their creativity and vision when it came to flipping soul samples was unparalleled for their time and still is the standard even today. While Eminem is a decent producer, he would’ve been better off letting Dre exclusively handle that aspect. There just isn’t as much detail and smoothness to the production on MMLP and as a result a couple of the cuts sound dated, you could absolutely tell it was a track from the early 2000s. A couple of the beats definitely have a “funk” feel to them, but it often doesn’t mesh well with what the track is attempting to accomplish. The transition from track to track isn’t really bad in each of these projects but the overall tone and message of each could’ve been accomplished in less tracks. 13 is a good number for The Blueprint but it definitely didn’t need an hour of runtime. 18 tracks for MMLP is decent but usually you only really need 10-13 to convey what is needed unless it’s a concept album…which this was not. And having a hour and a quarter of runtime is a little too much in most cases, it seems like a bit of filler was added just because which contributes little to nothing to the overall theme. The songwriting peaks are really high on these projects and some of the best writing we’ve ever seen across any genre. Dense material with impeccable incorporation of messages and tone in a pretty creative/versatile manner. However, with MMLP, it’s a little less consistent with the inclusion of “joke” rap songs. They showcase his creativity and versatility but it gets really cheesy and simplistic in songs like ‘Real Slim Shady’. It was very tough for me to take it serious because it’s quite obvious tracks like those were meant for kids even with the parental advisory sticker on the face of the LP. His performance on Stan and The Way I Am definitely saved the project. The Blueprint was sometimes inconsistent when you consider most of the cleverness and creativity is just for more braggadocio lines. Personal cuts like Blueprint (Momma Loves Me), Song Cry, and Never Change are the highlights of the project, and more performances like that would’ve definitely worked. The themes on these projects overall were nothing to write home about, but they did cover key situations they were going through, legally and relationship wise. My biggest gripe with MMLP is the missed opportunity to expound upon what was displayed on Stan. Less comedic tone and more introspective material always makes artists more convincing in their efforts. It’s what made Eminem, Eminem but that didn’t have to be the case. He’s at his best with his heart on his sleeve. A song like Mockingbird or Sing For The Moment on this project would’ve done a lot more than Criminal or The Real Slim Shady. While Jay-Z’s lifestyle and possession lyrics would prove overbearing and overwhelming in most instances, the rich production and slick songwriting really saved the day. There’s nothing corny about Blueprint outside of maybe Izzo, so I guess that’s a highlight too. Overall - The Blueprint is a solid A+ and MMLP is about B+ or A-.
I have a lot of hip hop comparison videos comparing diff artists albums their styles how their music age etc etc. But at the end eminem is the biggest thing that happened to hip hop if not eminem rap culture would never able to spread across the globe and people now days shitting his name dude he’s the living breathing best rapper alive ever ever no one no one is close he is god lever in every aspect and dk when people will understand that maybe when it’s too late..
Here some ideas Stankonia Vs Damn, Yeezus vs Relapse, My beautyfull twisted dark Fantasy vs to Pimp a butterfly, Tha Carter 2 vs Get Rich Or Die tryin, Tha Carter 3 vs Graudatiom, Illmatic vs The mis edaucation of Lauryn Hill, The Massacre vs It was Written, Tha Carter vs the college dropout, Illmatatic vs Liquid Swords, Stillmatatic Vs FishScale, Enter the 36 Chamber vs Sharight outta Compton, Only Built 4 cuban linx vs Igor, The predator vs Get Rich or dyin tryin, Good kid mad city vs Igor also Good kid mad city vs Graduation just a few ideas
I'll take Song Cry, Heart of the city, Takeover, Izzo, Never Change, Girls girls girls, Renegade and U don't know over Stan, The way I am, Kill you, Criminal, The Real Slim Shady
Antonio's position is like when your gf chooses your favourite character in the game and you had to play with a mid character. He already knows MMLP is bigger than Blueprint under any circumstances)
As an overall package, The Blueprint no doubt. In terms of lyricism, the MMLP. I lean towards The Blueprint more, the production blows MMLP out the water and The Blueprint is a much more seamless listen imo. I feel like the MMLP has few skips but not as many stand outs. The Blueprint has classic after classic track. MMLP has tracks like Kim (which was kind of a waste of a track slot imo), Under the Influence, and Amityville which weight it down the record a bit for me. There aren’t as many songs on the MMLP that I constantly go back to. I definitely feel like the SSLP and especially TES give The Blueprint more of a run for it’s money. I have always felt the MMLP was inferior to the SSLP and TES. Just my opinion.
I think Luca should've taken in consideration of what Ant was saying. Both albums are great but when your piece of work is sitting up there with MLK speeches, that's highly impactful.

Not only does he double down on his edgyness, he where's his heart on his sleeve, he talks about his struggles with fame, his family and relationships all while being hungry to prove himself as one of the best rappers of all time.
Agree with everything here!!!

@@mo2k638 bro you can literally look it up, and mmlp is better
Going with Luca on this for sure, The Marshall Mathers LP a timeless album and every track is unskippable, the production is amazing and have a g-funk flavour from Dre's influences from his previous works on g-funk records, can't see how this'd be a discussion that any of the producers on The Blueprint beat Dr. Dre and Mel-Man, Em's reckless energy and venomous flows flow smoothly and compliment the beats too, the whole album is fun & entertaining to listen to and the concepts of Em's twisted psyche and horrorcore themes is done effortlessly
You forgot that sometimes its corny, so much tracks that doesnt add up any substance to the album. And kanye is a better producer that DrDre
@@leorodrigues9596 Substance ain't expected so much from Eminem so I don't see what point u tryna make, and nah Kanye is a great producer but ain't no way I'm putting him over Dre
I don't see anything corny coming from Em, he's always been authentic as an artist since day one

Aye that’s major love! Means a lot coming from y’all 🙏
I overall like Jay's discography more than Eminem's but I like MMLP more. I had never heard anything like the tracks Stan or Kim before. Not that Jay-Z isn't special too , but early Eminem was truly something new in hip hop and music in those early albums.
Late but yeah Eminem’s peak was unmatched jay z had amazing longevity though
no one talks about the smooth editing in these videos tho 🔥🔥🔥
MMLP. And I dont subscribe at all to the fact it hasn't aged well. It sounds amazing to this day. And objectively speaking, its still played more to this day as well

Blueprint clears so hard in every aspect. These comments just prove how underrated Hov is
This is one is tough because clearly MMLPs lyricism and Ems performance outdoes Jays. But the production on the blueprint blows MMLP out the water. If you wanted to show an alien what hip-hop is an the highest most pristine form of it, then show them the blueprint. But if you want a master in artistry and getting deep into the psyche of an artist, I don’t think any album in any genre gets closer to Em on the MMLP. I have to give it to the MMLP, even though I hold the blueprint to a slightly higher degree because sometimes you aren’t always listening for lyrics and the blueprint is the best at just vibing. Great match up regardless
Edit: after Ant’s point of the blueprint being Kanye’s genesis I thought if either album were to be taken away from history, I freaked out and immediately thought of having no Kanye and so it’s the blueprint hands down.
You two both had valid points
The best song on The Bluprint was written by Eminem, so...🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Yall do an amazing job seriously keep going no bias and your true perspective
Appreciate you Brian!

Blueprint for me. It helped kanye who have a goat category and a billionaire like jay z himself. It sparked nas back into beast mode. Being wordy as a wordsmith doesn't mean you a better rapper. Eminem amazing but that's not a good argument on who's the better rapper.
eminem the better rapper by far one way or another
Skill wise
JayZ can't outrap Eminem even in my dreams

@@archanakumari1552 lol on the watchers 2 jayz washed Eminem
I side with Lu on this one based on considering the time frame and content risk Em took with writing MMLP. In my opinion MMLP is an album that only Em could have made verses an album like The Blueprint that could have arguably been duplicated in style by other rappers at that time period.
You guys are so well spoken. I personally think Luca won, but the blueprint is my personal fav
Em for me. He is beyond influential but still respect Jay
Jay is much more influential hell jay even influenced em
@@mo2k638 Jay makes his raps yes. But he is too scared to go toe to toe with artist and is often sneak dissing. Em will say your name. Jay does things behind the scenes and Em addresses things straight forward. Jay will be known as an icon for his success but Em will be known as a rapper who wasn’t scared to take on anyone. Em’s lyrical abilities exceeds Jay
Eminem takes it easily
@@vickylove9824 em ended pathetic careers I like how you Stan’s make it seem like em battled heavyweight lyricist when his track record of beef are pop stars and corny rappers like mgk everlast ja rule Britney Spears Christina Aguilera iggy etc at least every legendary emcee has went at another nicca please
@@vickylove9824 you a whole stan talking about jay does things behind the scene you dont even listen to jay you're pop fan em is a legend in thes eyes of stans he's been dropping mediocre albums since 04 Eminem show being his last solid piece of work while even his old stuff aging like crap, jay z is one of the goats if not the goat and eminem himself said it on Twitter that jay z was the goat also on till I collapse Jay z was one of the rappers em said was better then him and even in 2002 when em won the Grammy during his speech he pulled out a piece of paper and shouted out all the rappers he looked up to and that influenced him and he learned from and jay was one of them but you stans hate the fact and will always be in denial that Marshall idolizes jay z 😂😂
Blueprint an easy one for me
I love these free smoke videos please keep doing them!!! Gotta say the Blueprint is superior though
Crazy to see how good is Lu. Every argument slaps and I was rooting for Ant on some episodes because of the album.
mmlp washes blueprint, the production is better on blueprint tho... but these arent the best projects from EM and Jay imo, I'd say Eminem Show and Reasonable Doubt are their best (RD is the the better project by quite a bit tho)
I wouldn’t go as far to say it washes it personally.
Blueprint washes every em album
Absolutely amazing debate! Y’all killin it
blueprint better subject matter
Lmao I never knew this was an actual debate I thought about it in my head last year 😂 for me mmlp is the more enjoyable classic because of Em’s humor but The blueprint’s literally the blueprint for how to make a classic

here's the thing, i prefer bp and think it's better in terms of production; but mmlp is better crafted, whether it is the lyrics or the influence. for impact, i think they're equal because i personally relate more to bp.
MMLP for sure. The wordplay is amazing, the lyrics are amazing, the jokes, and who can forget The Real Slim Shady, Kill You, I'm Back, and Marshall Mathers. JayZ is good too tho.

Great matchup guys
Mmlp vs Reasonable Doubt would be more fair of a battle. Blueprint is top 20 of all time but MMLP easily tops it.
Both blueprint and RD are much superior em’s albums aged horribly
I just love Eminem over Jay Z, so I'm definitely going with MMLP. Plus MMLP is my favorite album of all time
Jay Z’s The Blueprint literally changed the soundscape of Rap. The Blueprint IS THE BEST.
Blueprint🔥🔥🔥
Hitting maturity is realising out of em's big three the only one with replay value is TES
Both albums are quality first and foremost Personally Em on MMLP is more layered out cinematically sharped very minimalistic on the beats from the base brothers and Dre for Em to deliver the songs and putting his heart onto the tracks. Kill you, Marshall Mathers, The Way I Am, Real slim shady, Criminal. Blueprint is a pretty solid album but overhyped I felt the production overshadowed Some of Jay Performance (Heart in the City, Neva Change, U don’t Know) personally imo if we’re discussing Conceptually, artistic standpoint, Sampling Reasonable doubt is much better He’ll I’ll take Black Album & American Gangster over it.
You guys should do
50 Cent get rich or die trying

Kanye West Graduation
oh shitttt
surley we get a Igor (tyler the creator) vs Blonde (frank ocean)
This is my sort of debate
Mmlp is far more memorable and stands out from other hiphop albums. The Blueprint is still incredible tho
id argue that the blueprint is more memorable then mmlp, em's most memorable album is probably the eminem show tbh

Blueprint for Production.
Impact...idk. I gotta see their argument for this...and make my decision after they prove their points.
I love how things get heated🔥🔥🔥 For me Ant had the best arguments, even if I'm more attached to MMLP1, the first rap album I listened
I prefer Blueprint but I feel like Lu brought better points to the table
Although I prefer MMLP, I think ant overall had better arguments. Lu tended to make points and when ant added to it to strengthen his argument Lu would say “it’s not relevant” 🤣great video though and it all comes down to preference.
Marshall Matthers LP. To add to Impact. J Cole sounded like Nas & Eminem in 2000 when he was a Teenager and he was good. Which Rappers Rapped like Jay after Blueprint ? Yes Blueprint gave us Kanye but MMLP gave Kanye those guys to look up to him. So had it not been for MMLP Ye would not have those guys lookin up to him.
J Cole has Jay-Z ranked higher in his top 5 than Em so the influence is there with Jay
@@michaelsonsaintil3560 Nah Cole said he he was bitting Nas, Em & Canibus. His songs when he was 15 sounded like Nas & Eminem

Damn you guys are really good at your job
I hate when people say shit like "If you're golfing with Jeff Bezos, are you REALLY playing something like Amityville? Yeah, that's what I thought"
I take the Blueprint any day however Stan and The Way I Am do make mmlp a competitor. However I think the Blueprint is more relevant and is a better concept. The Blueprint also has much better production that to me holds up a lot better today. The Blueprint has for me stood the test of time much better. I think they’re both classic albums however there’s no debate for me when you look at consistency, longevity, and relevance which to me are the 3 main factors in judging classic albums
The algorithm blessed me with your podcast. +Subscribed
Tbh I prefer Reasonable Doubt and The Black Album to The Bluprint. It had a couple of filler tracks. Lyrically it was solid but RD had more moments which blew me away.
Blueprint is incredible and it's probably a top 10 album oat but I'd say it's MMLP even tho the lyrics have not aged well cus of its edgyness I'm a Kanye Stan and I really like jay but I gotta give it to Eminem

The best series on UA-cam
That’s love!
I’ll try my best to explain why Blueprint is superior while simultaneously giving a quick review of each.
The production of an album is very significant, and you’d be hard pressed to find a better combination than Kanye West and Just Blaze at their peak. Their creativity and vision when it came to flipping soul samples was unparalleled for their time and still is the standard even today. While Eminem is a decent producer, he would’ve been better off letting Dre exclusively handle that aspect. There just isn’t as much detail and smoothness to the production on MMLP and as a result a couple of the cuts sound dated, you could absolutely tell it was a track from the early 2000s. A couple of the beats definitely have a “funk” feel to them, but it often doesn’t mesh well with what the track is attempting to accomplish.
The transition from track to track isn’t really bad in each of these projects but the overall tone and message of each could’ve been accomplished in less tracks. 13 is a good number for The Blueprint but it definitely didn’t need an hour of runtime. 18 tracks for MMLP is decent but usually you only really need 10-13 to convey what is needed unless it’s a concept album…which this was not. And having a hour and a quarter of runtime is a little too much in most cases, it seems like a bit of filler was added just because which contributes little to nothing to the overall theme.
The songwriting peaks are really high on these projects and some of the best writing we’ve ever seen across any genre. Dense material with impeccable incorporation of messages and tone in a pretty creative/versatile manner. However, with MMLP, it’s a little less consistent with the inclusion of “joke” rap songs. They showcase his creativity and versatility but it gets really cheesy and simplistic in songs like ‘Real Slim Shady’. It was very tough for me to take it serious because it’s quite obvious tracks like those were meant for kids even with the parental advisory sticker on the face of the LP. His performance on Stan and The Way I Am definitely saved the project. The Blueprint was sometimes inconsistent when you consider most of the cleverness and creativity is just for more braggadocio lines. Personal cuts like Blueprint (Momma Loves Me), Song Cry, and Never Change are the highlights of the project, and more performances like that would’ve definitely worked.
The themes on these projects overall were nothing to write home about, but they did cover key situations they were going through, legally and relationship wise. My biggest gripe with MMLP is the missed opportunity to expound upon what was displayed on Stan. Less comedic tone and more introspective material always makes artists more convincing in their efforts. It’s what made Eminem, Eminem but that didn’t have to be the case. He’s at his best with his heart on his sleeve. A song like Mockingbird or Sing For The Moment on this project would’ve done a lot more than Criminal or The Real Slim Shady. While Jay-Z’s lifestyle and possession lyrics would prove overbearing and overwhelming in most instances, the rich production and slick songwriting really saved the day. There’s nothing corny about Blueprint outside of maybe Izzo, so I guess that’s a highlight too.
Overall - The Blueprint is a solid A+ and MMLP is about B+ or A-.
Nice essay, but mmlp >>

The blueprint for sure better production I like the flows more too
As an overall package, The Blueprint no doubt. In terms of lyricism, the MMLP. I lean towards The Blueprint more, the production blows MMLP out the water and The Blueprint is a much more seamless listen imo. I feel like the MMLP has few skips but not as many stand outs. The Blueprint has classic after classic track.
MMLP has tracks like Kim (which was kind of a waste of a track slot imo), Under the Influence, and Amityville which weight it down the record a bit for me. There aren’t as many songs on the MMLP that I constantly go back to. I definitely feel like the SSLP and especially TES give The Blueprint more of a run for it’s money. I have always felt the MMLP was inferior to the SSLP and TES. Just my opinion.
I think Luca should've taken in consideration of what Ant was saying. Both albums are great but when your piece of work is sitting up there with MLK speeches, that's highly impactful.
