Nov 30, 2016IT'S NOT AN ALBUM. IT IS A COMPILATION OF ARTISTS FROM THE SHADY RECORDS LABEL. It's worth considering. To compile, not bad: there are a few hits (in my opinion), a bit good, although could be better

Nov 1, 2018Despite the hate this album gets, I reckon this record is awesome. There are a few skip-tracks, but the majority of the album is great. Em, Stat, Kuniva, Swifty, Bizarre etc. killed on this album. I found that 50 wasn't as on top as he previously was, but he still sounded great. Favourite Song: By My Side

HondoJMar 7, 2007Mr. Mathers returns to drop some serious science on all suckah MC's who still doubt his rhyming skillz. Even the most jaded and cynical hip-hop fan will be compelled to proclaim Em's latest effort as completely dope, and some may even say it is the bomb.

ShaunMDec 13, 2006This album is aiight, kinda tired of 50 singing and I'm not a fan of stat or any member of D-12 so that should tell you something about my rating. I like the tracks with the new guy Bobby Creekwater and Cashis is cool. The Eminem tracks are heaters and can't go worng with an Akon track. If your a fan of any of the Shady or G-Unit members you should definately pick this album up.

MicahYJan 30, 2007I am extremely disapointed with the reviews of this album. I think Eminem is one of the most talented and innovative artists in Hip-Hop. I agree that some of the tracks should be skipped over but the ones that he is on prove to be both lyrically and performally some of the best I've heard....compared to the rest of the new-age hip-hop pop era.

AnthonyH.Sep 10, 2007For a mixtape this is pretty hot. Lyrically the other guy's bring nothing new or creative except for Obie Trice, but the beats save them. But Eminem owns on No Apologies it's one of the best tracks ive ever heard period.

aylaDec 15, 2006really enjoyed everyone on the album not just the big rappers like eminem and 50 but songs by the newest shady rappers are very good too. overall i would say a good compilation album.

BigTomCasualDec 13, 2006It still feels like EM is still searching for something to inspire him again. The mixtape approach is pretty good for now, until he gets enough passion/creativity going for a potential whole album. Overall, there is a lot of throw-away here, but some of tracks are great. "No Apologies" is like a new take on "Rock Bottom".

ChrisWDec 25, 2006Why are we reviewing a Mixtape? These are mostly demos and studio sessions that were worth saving along with a few hidden gems. This is not to be taken seriously as an artist album. The flow on this mixtape is good and has some great experiental pieces by talented rappers. Solid performances.

Mar 24, 2020When I came in and saw the critics' ratings, I was like, "Are you fking kidding me?" Bro this project is underrated. Don't listen to the critics, ever.
-
Jan 24, 2021Despite some forgettable songs, the songs with Eminem himself are incredibly entertaining. I mostly go back to this album to re-listen to You Don't Know and the first verse of We're Back.

The Re-Up has plenty of that serious heat that influenced Eminem to go aboveground with the release.
-
BillboardDespite meticulous production, "The Re-Up" retains some of the spare, raw feel of an underground release. [16 Dec 2006]
-
Entertainment WeeklyThere's plenty of unfocused bluster here, but enough taut cuts to make up for the cameos from... D12. [15 Dec 2006, p.87]
