Aug 31, 2018Lyrics are as always the best in the game. I'm suprised by its release, sure I'm not the only one.
-
Aug 31, 2018In utter disbelief at some of the reviews this has been getting. Same old same old from Eminem as of recently. Cool, he raps fast. Ha ha lyrics so funny. So hard so cool. Give me a break. He's lost it and it ain't coming back.
-
Sep 1, 2018Below average. Slightly better than Revival, but that's no accomplishment. Eminem thinks he can just rap fast and continue calling himself the best. How about some meaningful lyrics or creative music behind him? No, he was never even close to the best and has quickly and consistently become one of the worst rappers in the industry.
-
Nov 4, 2018Pretty good, he goes off and raps his ass off, would have maybe been a 9 if he'd cut out nice guy and good guy
-

-
Nov 13, 2018Kamikaze was a big improvement from revival. The ringer, Greatest, Lucky you, Not alike, Fall, And venom were all great songs on the album. He's returned to his original form years ago.
-
Jan 24, 2020It's a great album that realy it highly enjoyable and intelligent at the same time
Eminem keep proving that he is one of the GOATs if not the GOAT -
Nov 4, 2018this album was one of the best with fall, the ringer, lucky you being apart of my top ten Eminem songs of all time
-
Dec 9, 2018This is a masterpiece album in which Slim Shady’s return from Framed (revival) and good old Em in general. MASTERPIECE
-
Jan 22, 2020Phenomenal...Unexpected....Incredible LOVE IT Absolutely love this album! Thank you Eminem
-
Sep 4, 2018An absolute fire album. As good as MMLP - crazy flow and wordplay.
Critics either dont have the ability to understand his lyrics or are just mad they were wrong when they said Eminem had lost it.
Ringer, not alike, fall, stepping stones and lucky you are all 5/5 star tracks -
Aug 31, 2018My oh my. Back after a mediocre Revival, this album is what we needed right now. The flow is still impeccable.

Aug 31, 2018Best Eminem album in a hot minute! Blinding lyrics, perfect cadence, incredible energy, and whole lot of name of dropping. 3rd best Eminem album ever imo. The homophobic slurs may seem hard to swallow at this time and age, but in all honesty, it added to the experience. Also, it's Eminem, you should be used to it by now.
-
Sep 5, 2018Finally we get Slim back. Slim Shady is angry and in rare form. Its about damn time.
-
Sep 3, 2018Probably the best album of 2018. It reminds me of the old Eminem but with better lyrical skill
-
Sep 3, 2018Some great tracks coming from one of the best rappers ever. Some really catching songs with incredible rhymes.
-
Sep 3, 2018Eminem's album Kamikaze is fiyah!
-
Sep 4, 2018Simply incredible, the flow, the punchlines, the production. Em continues to amaze
-

-
Sep 2, 2018So many good beats mixed with the finesse of Em's lyrics. People don't like the hooks but i could not care less since he kills it anyway. "The Ringer" doesn't even have one and is my favourite.
-
Aug 31, 2018EMINEM IS BACK. after his disappointing album Revival, Eminem makes his fans up by dropping a surprise album. This album is pure fire.
-
Aug 31, 2018Pretty good album I'd say, definitely had fun listening to it. Some songs are better, others are more "meh".
Overall an 8/10 if you ask me. -
Sep 1, 2018
-
Sep 1, 2018Shady is back! ....... This is the album i wanted. Straight Fire.
Best surprise. -
Sep 24, 2018unexpected bag of goodness - thanks for showing me Joyner and Jessie.
I only did not like Normal that much - but overall this is great album - insta buy for my old car CD player :D -

Aug 31, 2018No one can lyrically beat this man. Great album. The attention it's getting with 0 promotion proves it.

-
Aug 31, 2018This is the people craved for. He turns back and slap the **** out of the market...
-
Sep 1, 2018It didn't take him more than some months to come back. His previous project, Revival, got heavily criticized and he decided to answer to all these critics with music. In Kamikaze, he seems hungry and unleashed with mesmerizing lyricism and flow. He is dissing a whole lot of rappers, while giving props to others. Some are glad, but some aren't that he is back!
-
Sep 1, 2018Album super.
Very interesting meaning, like the f*cked of a new school.
Really cool **** guys you need to listen it. -
Sep 10, 2018Eminem is the GOAT! I hope he continues to make great albums like this! This was amazing!
-
Oct 2, 2018Awesome album. Since it was released I can't stop listening to it. Like literally. That is what I listen. Everyday. All day.
-
Sep 2, 2018REAL hip hop heads know that this album is the real deal. British publications NME and the Guardian are NOT accurate here. I had no idea that Slim Shady had an album of this quality still in him. Bravo.
-
Aug 31, 2018Ignore the journalist as they are a bunch of SJWs who aren't fans of music but just looking for something to complain about like everything else they do, what they want is censorship and wish for everything to be like the movie 1984. This album is fire and the only people who don't like it are people who get offended over everything.
-
Sep 1, 2018This is goooooood man still F*ck Mumble dude this album straight better than every rapper rn you can disagree or not but the fact is **** good
-
Aug 31, 2018Great album from GOAT.Do not let them breathe Shady. Inevitable last has realized.
-
Sep 1, 2018
-
Sep 1, 2018Eminem delivered a pleasant surprise with this album, albeit falling short on a couple of songs. It is evident he applied much of the criticism from Revival, as the contrasts in sound and content are enormous, but in a positive way.
-
Aug 31, 2018The only songs on this album NOT worth even clicking on and trying out are Nice Guy and Good Guy, both with Jessie Reyez. They are just bad and her vocals are really unpleasant to listen to.
Otherwise, it's a really good and enjoyable album, I can give it about 8-. -
Sep 2, 2018kamikaze has Eminem at his best, everything is impeccable from production to his delivery. His flows were smooth and the content was great. This album was absolute perfection, every track was of the highest quality. The only below par track is NICE GUY, but i can live with that.
-
Sep 1, 2018I can't stop listening... He is one of the best lyricists of all time. I can't wait until the next album.

Sep 2, 2018Absolutely love this album! Eminem snaps and funny how anybody that was dissed has responded yet hahaha they don’t wanna mess with the RAP GOD
-
Sep 3, 2018Shady is back!!!!!!!!!! .
-
Sep 4, 2018Great album, This has to be one of his best albums in at least 10 years! great comeback Em!
-
Sep 4, 2018I'm so glad this is getting good reviews! my favorite tracks are Ringer, Fall, Greatest, Lucky you and many more! this album is just amazing!
-
Sep 4, 2018Eminem has found his stride again. Sad that critics of this album have been made desensitized to what true hip hop really is. Album is almost flawless from start to finish and any missteps are pretty nit picky. THIS is what we want from Eminem in 2018 and beyond.
-
Sep 21, 2018This album is fire. Em is back and taking no prisoners. The features by Joyner and Royce are excellent as well. The beat is on point with the lyrical hits.
-
Sep 3, 2018This is his the most lyricaly insane album in a while! Acclaim!!! Much better than Revival!
-
Aug 31, 2018Eminem is back and he is angry! Em is at his best when he is motivated and the struggles of his last album have motivated him to drop an album that finally combines good hip hop production, his elite lyrical ability, and content all together. This is most likely the best hip hop album of 2018 at this point at the end of a summer that saw many heavy hitters release albums.
-
Sep 1, 2018Return to form for eminem. Seems like he is hungry again. This style fits great in the modern landscape of rap.
-
Sep 1, 2018The real slim shady has stood back up. While I appreciate the redeeming tracks on Revival like Castle and Arose, there was just something missing. With this, it's like he's been aware of all the criticisms of people saying he's too positive, working with pop stars, etc. So he rewound the clock, and brought back the angst. And my ears are pleased.
-
Sep 8, 2018Fire Fire Fire Fire Fire Fire Fire Fire Fire Fire Fire Fire Fire Fire Fire Fire
-
Sep 1, 2018em surprised everyone once again, his rage for revival bad review and reflects on the tracks,
his lyrics are perfectly written, and he use a great variety of flows.
in addiction he managed to put together is style in some new school tracks, showing he is the greatest of all time -

-
Sep 1, 2018Em’s rappin and songwriting is top tier on this album. I see music journalists acting like a rapper dissin his critics is new as if Pac, Cube, Jay and many more didn’t do it. The “bitter” rapper narrative they’re pushing is lame.
-
Aug 31, 2018As a person who was thinking Eminem was losing his way on Revival, while Kamikaze will never touch his older work (he was a different person with different motivations then), glad to see Em is still hungry to eat these wack a** mumble rappers.
-
Sep 5, 2018Damn Shady is trully back this time.. I missed those times when he used to snap at everything. Who would have thought that we 'd have that anger back in 2018!
Straight fire! -

Aug 31, 2018Kamikaze is the sound of Eminem with his back against the wall, and this has led to some of his most invigorated writing in years--albeit with some troubling lyrical results. Whether he'll be able to maintain this level of energy into his next project is up for debate; for now though, any inspiration is promising.

Aug 31, 2018That **** is dope. Eminem or maybe I should've said Slim is **** back again.
-
Aug 31, 2018For an album with only 11 real songs and 7 of them being absolute Bops, I don't see how so many people can be hating on it. yall gotten too used to mumble rap. would be a 10 without good guy and nice guy (both are trash in my opinion)
This is some absolute heat especially after revival. -
Sep 1, 2018I completely loved this album, Slim Shady is back baby! This is the eminem I like to see!
-
Sep 1, 2018Perfect beats. Perfect lyrics. The first track being the best and nice guy being the worst, names have been said, shots fired. Slim shady is back. Flow is magical. Best hip hop album in a long time.
-
Sep 6, 2018One of the best album in a long time. I have not enjoyed any album in long time unit this came out.
Every song is lit.
Slim shady is back! -
Sep 16, 2018Some of the greatest work Em has ever delivered with two songs in particular (the Ringer and Lucky You) that will comfortably slot into his all time top ten.
I honestly think it's a little awkward for any critic giving Kamakaze a mixed review; you cannot love lyrics and rapping and not love this album. It's that simple. -
Sep 6, 2018Excellent way to address the state of hip hop in 2018. Very meta and very relevant album. Eminem hits us once again with his award winning lyrics and flow. Reminds us that the mumble rappers of late are children's games compared to the one and only Marshall Mathers.

Sep 1, 2018This is a big improvement from Revival! Its urgency, anger and lyricism is at its greatness here. Although it fallen short by the end with the unneccesary collab and a trash soundtrack. Still this is a return-to-form for the G.O.A.T.
-
Sep 1, 2018This album is an improvement from "Revival" in the categories of production, content, delivery, and variety. I'm not sure where this album ranks in his discography, but it's worth a listen by any fan or person who generally enjoys Eminem's music. My highlighted tracks are Lucky You, Stepping Stone, Not Alike, and Fall.
-
Sep 2, 2018Shady shows everyone that he is the best, and its no use to argue. Plus reminds others that its really bad idea to try and diss him.
-
Sep 2, 2018His wordplay is out of this world. His lyrics are the best there is in this game. You can never compare him to any living (or dead) rapper.
-
Sep 2, 2018The old school eminem is back! Thank you haters for helping eminem make this masterpiece!

Sep 4, 2018Omg this is amazing this 10/10 one of my favorite slim shady albums ever! keep it up Eminem!
-

-
Sep 4, 2018This is a very good album, lyrics like always are on point.
The return of Shady is also great.
I like pretty much every track. -
Sep 4, 2018With his back to the wall it’s is the best Em’s sounded in years. Hip-hop fans love it; ‘professional critics’, not so much. Journalists reviewing him to his own high standards and not to the same metric they use for everyone else is misleading and unprofessional.
-
Sep 4, 2018His best album since Recovery (which I would give a 7/10). Beats are great, hes angry, hooks are good. Great gym album as well.
-
Sep 4, 2018His best work in a long time, definitely redeemed himself after Revival.
Eminem is angry and that is when he is at his best! -
Sep 5, 2018I really like this album, SLIM SHADY IS BACK BABY! Now end MGK's career hahaha
-
Sep 6, 2018
-
Sep 10, 2018I have this album on repeat! Better than most of these mumble rappers put out!
-
Aug 31, 2018This is the real comeback! Eminem, who was being highly criticized by his work on Revival (that wasn't that bad), just done one of his best albums. I believe this have much less Pop influence on it, which was good.
The flow patterns, the cadence, the rhyme schemes, the beats - everything sounded very good.
This may be the best album since TES. -

Sep 1, 2018Very strong album, I justified not just a small part of the new school. The general atmosphere of the album, musical accompaniment, text, everything at the highest level.
-
Sep 1, 2018Great album. Shows diversity in his technique/beats. Eminem surprised once again.
-
Sep 1, 2018It's good to see Em learnt a lesson from last year's revival and fixed his instrumentals, and removed the corny lyrics. The Goat is back!
Awards & Rankings

Sep 10, 2018Kamikaze finds Marshall Mathers revelling in his Slim Shady rabid underdog role, fulminating at critics, boggling at Lil Yachty, and sneering at the Migos flow on Not Alike. How riveting all this finger-wagging is probably depends upon your birth date.
-
Sep 7, 2018Fans clamoring for the old Marshall Mathers should stream the old album or hell, rent it from the library or something. After being faced with nothing to prove as the highest-selling rapper of all-time, Eminem’s found another challenge in perfecting the new style he’s put on display.
-
Sep 7, 2018As sheer performance, Eminem's vocals remain a thing of wonder, which is why it's so dispiriting to hear him circling the drain, relying on old tricks instead of expanding his worldview. He has the musical skills to mature; he's just refusing to let himself act his age.
