Encore originally came out in 2004 and sets two sides of Eminem next to each other. The jokes of 'Just Lose It' and 'Ass Like That' sit alongside 'Mockingbird', a letter to his daughter, and 'Like Toy Soldiers', about where rap feuds lead. On 'Mosh' he took open aim at the Bush administration weeks before that year's US election. Eminem and Dr. Dre produced the album together, and it entered the Billboard 200 at number one.

This edition is a 2-LP on black vinyl.
