"cleanin' out my closet" is eminem's least track of '02 because its production is so leaden and dull. like with pink's "party," however, bootleg versions breathe a completely new life into this "closet." jacknife lee upped the anger quotient earlier this year with his remodel/remix. the ever-genius go home productions, however, go in the opposite direction: "ain't no sunshine in my closet" pairs em's confessional with bill withers' sad, slow '70s soul, and brings out "closet"'s poignancy. their winning streak continues as their productions continue to amaze.
