Eminem's 'The Marshall Mathers LP 2' Tracklist

Eminem is counting down the days to the release of his official 7th album, The Marshall Marthers LP 2. The album is scheduled to drop on the 5th of November (2013), and the tracklist just hit the internet. Check it out below-




1.  “Bad Guy”
2.  “Parking Lot (Skit)”
3.  “Rhyme Or Reason”
4.  “So Much Better”
5.  “Survival”
6.  “Legacy”
7.  “Asshole” f. Skylar Grey
8.  “Berzerk”
9.  “Rap God”
10.  “Brainless”
11.  “Stronger Than I Was”
12.  “The Monster” f. Rihanna
13.  “So Far…”
14.  “Love Game” f. Kendrick Lamar
15.  “Headlights” f. Nate Ruess
16.  “Evil Twin”

I don't know what to think of this tracklist. First of all, I am super big fan of Marshall Mathers LP (2000), and I believe that is his best album to date. And for him to try to make a sequel to it, he has to deliver top-notch. I saw 'Survival' on the tracklist, and I am thinking- 'ain't that a soundtrack for a video game or so?' If you plan to make another masterpiece, you don't throw in a song you made for a game company. I just hope he has some germs on there, and not just naming it Marshall Mathers LP 2 just to make people check for it, cos they would believe he is as great as he was when he made the first one. It's like the record execs have more control over Eminem's decisions these days. This tracklist proves it- doing a songs with Nate Ruess, Rihanna, and Skylar Grey is a formula to capture the pop market, and then having a songs with the hottest new rapper out (kendrick Lamar) is to get the attention of the Hip Hop audience.
