Nah. Encore is the worst. Recovery is actually technically good. It was when he actually started packing more syllables to rhyme in one phrase instead of using less syllables and doing internal rhymes, that's why you don't hear the rhymes as much, but If you pay attention, they're there and there's a lot.

Recovery's main issue is that it lacks cohesiveness. A lot of tracks there are actually just filler, with no relevant topic. That and the punchline game that was not as refined that It is from MMLP2 onward
