    In this album Em is killing tho. I'm all the way in with this album and sensitive Ariana fans and jealous Kanye fans are trying to get this album down. So GIVE THIS ALBUM TO 10/10

    It’s really sad all these people are giving this great album a 0 because they are butthurt by the Ariana Grande reference, Let’s not forget he helped over £2,000,000 to be donated to the cause. But hey, that’s 2020 for you

    After a few listents the album captures your attention with great story telling and phenomenal lyricism that keeps pushing the boundaries and limits that is Eminem’s talent. Eminem continues to show why he is one of the greatest Rappers alive and of all time with tracks like “Darkness”, “Godzilla” and “Yah Yah”. Long live the Rap God.

    This album is a masterpiece perfect blend of marshall mathers , eminem, and slim shady all in one. I can play this album straight through no skips a rare feat , even 20 years later for king mathers. I rate this album top 4 already possibly 3 of Eminem catalog only time will tell but MTBMB is Eminem’s best work maybe since Recovery. Straight Bars , Thank you Slim we all needed this.

    This is a great album, definitely top 3-4 by Eminem. At this point, he is only compared to himself as no other rapper even comes close. Casual fans love to hate but there are no flaws on this album, Eminem has never lost his touch. His level of wordplay and rhyme schemes flies over peoples heads so they do not appreciate what they are hearing. 10/10

    This album deffo hit the nostalgia factor while also having that clean flow he brought with the Kamikaze album. A step in the right direction for his future work would be to scrap the Ed Feature and less love songs.

    Album is a 9/10 there is only 1 song I don’t care for (one of those nights) and a few throw away bars. Overall the albums production is amazing, and Eminem’s flows are wide ranging (some better than others). He breaks the album in sections where he touches on his legacy being tarnished, politics, state of hip hop, and reflecting back on Kamikaze and earlier in his career, and his father.Album is a 9/10 there is only 1 song I don’t care for (one of those nights) and a few throw away bars. Overall the albums production is amazing, and Eminem’s flows are wide ranging (some better than others). He breaks the album in sections where he touches on his legacy being tarnished, politics, state of hip hop, and reflecting back on Kamikaze and earlier in his career, and his father. The theme of music to be murdered by seems to be a play on gun control, and his ability to “murder” a beat. That could be just be though. Favorite tracks: Premonition, Unaccommodating, you gon’ learn, Godzilla, darkness, leaving heaven, yah yah; never love again, marsh, little engine, locked up, farewell, no regrets, and I Will. Legitimately one of his best albums. Revival and Relapse are bad in there own ways, but anyone who hates on this album is just salty about something on the album or hates eminem stans and isn’t giving the project a fair chance. Eminem is at his best when he’s being vulnerable and talking about what’s in his brain, and I feel he does that here. Revival flopped because of poor mixing and producing with one to many corny bars. This is a far cry from that. Highly recommend.… Expand

And that's the problem with a lot of these kids, no one has the patience nor the attention span the actual words. Anyway it's def one of Eminem's best projects 100%

    Album is absolutely amazing. The planning that went behind the release, the song that was picked as the feature, the deep dive that you have to do to understand everything, and the links that it creates are genius. Best album I’ve heard in a long time.

    This whole album is a damn BANGER! The concept is kinda loose, which I like, 'cause you can just tune in and enjoy a particular song based on what you're feeling. Feel like listening to some of the best storytelling? Listen to Darkness or Leaving Heaven. Feel like listening to some club music? Listen to Those Kinda Nights. Feel like listening to straight up best wordplays/bars? Listen to IThis whole album is a damn BANGER!

    It’s amazing, Eminem proves he can still rap and had an amazing comeback. It’s crazy how the album still managed to top the charts even while getting a lot of backlash.

    What a sick album. It has everything: fire lyrics, fire beats, fire features, fire disses,...

    Bars! Double, triple entendres! Flow flexing.. slim shady sarcasm. Great replay value. Especially towards the end of the album.

    Finally I hear the Em that I’ve known. You can hear the passions of Royce, Dre and Em really coming together with these collaborations. The setting is perfect and the shout outs and respect for the hip hop community is truth in itself. I don’t care if some people aren’t a fan of slim shady, but at least listen and see the work and complexity that has gone into these pieces. Some may denyFinally I hear the Em that I’ve known.

    Some say he talks fast with no substance, mostly fans of lil pump , future , 21 savage and takashi69 lol like seriously ? Every word he says is planned for he plays on grammar and vocabulary, just cause you have a basic english level and you can't understand what he's saying doesn't mean that his music is outdated , "you're such a **** hoe i love it" loll that's the type of music yall like

    Overall good album with variety of songs which is one of the reasons I like his discography. Not 10 because he could skip 2 songs. Good punches that requires time to get which is good because the songs will be discussed more. Lastly most features by some of his close friends were great.

    The surprise album is an instant classic. Eminem once again proves that he's the best lyricist in the game and one of the greatest ever.

    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.
