This is a great compilation for anyone who is an Eminem fan
natgale Aug 22, 2020
Not a big fan of Eminem, I find that a lot of his songs all sound similar. There are some real gems here, which are tracks that we be with us for a long time, but the rest here is just trash. The live version of Stan with Elton John is just terrible. This album will get a limited play in my house sorry Eminem fans.

Stand Out Tracks: 'Lose Yourself', 'Stan', 'My Name Is'
marcoprolo Dec 18, 2018
I search the Eminem 'Curtain Call-The Hits' as 180g gatefold 2LP pressing from Europe in 2013. Can't find that one but it is listed to sell from official sellers. The number code on cover is 602498878965. Others are missing also. From 2013 'The SSLP' (EU, 180g), 606949028718) and 'The MMLP'(BACK TO BLACK series) as well. 'The EMINEM SHOW' also 180g limited edition. Most of them are from 2013 Europe. Please check it or if anybody has any knowledge if the quality is good..Thanks!

(Quick Review #21)
Listen: (N/A)

I decided that since I just did a big ass review on Encore I might as well review this. I'm only going to be talking about the original songs. The other songs are just basically the most popular singles off of the 4 em albums before this and Lose Yourself. Not a collection of his best songs, if it were that we would have Criminal, Kill You, Drug Ballad.... just noticed all of those are on MMLP :p. But yea, these are still all fine songs, I even think Just Lose It is fine, though it's definantly the worst non-original song off of the album.

So onto the original songs

Intro- Whatever it's an intro. It goes into (god save us) Fack. He does the same thing he did on D12s My Band where he does the whole boy bandy eminem thing and whatever, this on its own is fine. Just an intro

Fack- The worst song in Eminem's lineup. It's just like everything bad with the worst songs on Encore everything put together, without the whole concept of Encore to put it on. It feels like it was a cut song from Encore- and when you get cut from Encore that is bad. It is almost so bad it's good, but just misses that. It can be fun just to see how terrible it is, but it's still trash.

Shake That- Eminem at this point in time didn't really jump on to any trends in his music- he set the trends. This is the first song where he REALLY follows a trend. Its just a shitty club song that sounds dated as shit thats only saving grace is the Nate Dogg vocals, which sound just like Nate Dogg always does.

When I'm Gone- It's a mixed bag. On one hand its a great song, on the other hand he's done this how many times now? Too many. The first time I heard this song I thought it was amazing. Then I listened to all of his albums, this song just marks too many Halie songs all about the same shit. Its a good song he's just done it before.

I wouldn't say this is an original song but just because why not
Stan (Elton John)- Stan is a classic song. It's one of the best songs off of one of the best albums in rap ever. Elton John does an even better job on the hook than Dido did. But it's just the live performance from the grammy's with the audience noise taken out. That means it has all of the profanity taken out. If they added back in the profanity and did a studio cut for this it would be amazing and the best version of this song potentially. But as it is, it feels unneccisary since Stan is already on this album anyway.

So overall the original songs on here are pretty wack, but in different ways. Fack is just the worst song in his career, Shake That is just a stupid song meant to get played in clubs, and When I'm Gone is just a retread of ground we've been through before.
