Guys, he did NOT dissent Ariana Grande, he supports her, he donated $ 2-3M after the tragedy! Why can't you understand? You NEED to talk about this. Listen to Darkness, this is Eminem's song about terrorism and the call to fight it! He also created a petition against the free and illegal distribution of weapons!… Expand

    Shady responda to the haters that say you never hear him played in a club with an entire album of some of the hardest beats that sounds like what the youth of this generation listen to in terms of hip hop. Add that to his elite lyricism full of similes , metaphors, homonyms , double and triple entendres ,and you have one of his beat albums to date.

    The best Eminem album in years.
    It's easily on par with the "BIG THREE".
    The hooks, rhymes and punchlines are just crazy.

    We are living the year 2020. Eminem just released one of his best albums, ever. You read that right. Really, this one's right up there with his classics.

    This album is fantastic. It’s crazy how a 47 year old can top **** from years ago. He’s evolving and changing his style.

    Album is a peak back at the depth and horrors that fueled the slim shady EP with the lyrical prowess Eminem has developed over the last 25 years. Marshall proves again why he is the greatest lyricist and best selling rapper of all time. #GOAT

    His best work since Encore, plus keeping in mind that this album has been done within 1 year. If you know how much it takes to complete an album, you'll realise the motive of my comment.
    I want to just comment that, at this age, with almost 23 years of his career, he still has rhymes and lyrics that are insanely genius.
    We can talk about bad bars or lines, but besides that, this album has gotten a high level of lyricism in it, plus the production is so good you would want to come back and listen it for 1 more time everytime it's finished.    … Expand

    He clearly cares about his output, but “Music To Be Murdered By” is, unfortunately, another mixed bag of tricks, propped up by lyrical acrobatics and underwhelming production.

    If they look hard enough, any artist could find criticism of their work online. That’s sort of the curse of the Information Age. But not everyone overreacts quite as much as Eminem does. But if his fears grow tiring, his lyrical ability can still give you something to admire, even if the album is somewhat uneven.

    It is not, strictly speaking, a good record—Eminem hasn’t made one of those in a decade—but it boasts enough technical command and generates just enough arresting ideas to hold your attention.
