    Mi primer disco de rap y mi favorito de Marshall, estaba en su máximo peak. De esa época en que un álbum podía tener más de 20 canciones y se disfrutaba de principio a fin

    Although in my opinion, MMLP is better, this Album has much better replay ability, If I played **** Kill You from MMLP in public I'd be looked at like a psychopath, however a song like Business or Without me are fun songs that anyone can be attracted to with their catchy rhythms. This Album is very diverse and fun unlike the dark tone of MMLP.

    A perfect ending to one of the most consistent 3-albums run in history of hiphop. A filled with emotion and personal details, political tracks, motivational hits, and a top notch lyrical ability shown throughout the whole album.

    This is the initiator for my love-hate relationship with Eminem. This is by far his best album, and there's not a single miss on here, maybe apart from drips. Every song is good with incredible production, lyricism and flow. I just wish we could still get albums like this from him.

    While it can't compete with The Slim Shady LP, it is one of my top 3 in Eminem albums, with great choruses and amazing flows and lyricism from Eminem, with catchy rhythms. Where the album falls short is it being mildly unadventurous.

    Easily Eminem's most consistently great album. Every track is a degree of excellence. There are no filler tracks like the Marshall Mathers LP, and all of the skits are great, unlike the Slim Shady LP. The only negative quality this album has is that it made Encore look even worse in comparison.

    Some of Eminem's best songs of all time, not only do they go hard, they destroy other rappers lyrically. With the Exception of Drips, every song on here is incredible. If Drips was removed, this would easily be a 9, maybe a 10.

    Practically Eminem at his best. While shock rap isnt really something difficult to do, Eminem mixes it with his lyrical cleverness. He throws out memorable punchlines bound to stick and he does it in a style which is clearly not simple and just thrown

    The album has a unique timeless sound that defines Eminem's perfectionism mentality which is accompanied by his best production on a full length studio album to date with assistance from the Bass brothers,Luis Resto and Dr Dre the album unlike most of his discography creates a good vibe.

    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.

  1. Eminem just may have made the best rap-rock album in history
  2. 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.
  3. Uncut

    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]
