    Eminem is a very technically talented rapper, but he has consistently wasted it on unfunny and offensive lyrics which basically amount to mocking random celebrities and gay people for no reason. THis is no different.

    The third major-label album of one of the best MCs of all time , Eminem, is a beautiful rock-influenced hip hop album. He is mature and aware of his position in the rap game. Top-notch technicalities, storytelling and pure emotions are blinded in making this LP a masterpiece.

    Horrible album. This man has fallen so hard. Why do his fans dare play with us and the best album of the decade?

    Genuinely poor form. One of his worst albums by far. After the greatness of SSLP and MMLP I would be ashamed if I made this

    Eminem just may have made the best rap-rock album in history

    With each successive album Eminem finds new depth and excitement within the same themes and structures he used way back on The Slim Shady LP, so even if new songs contain earmarks of Eminem classics, they still feel reinvigorated.

    Behind the hype and the swagger, he's still baring enough of his soul for The Eminem Show to be compelling theatre. [Aug 2002, p.118]
