    Great approach to the modern Hip-Hop context with this one. I think Em can even do better but as long as he puts out works like this one, he will always have my money.

    This is Eminem's worst album in my opinion. I enjoyed two to three songs off this project, and I don't really see the hype behind it, if I'm perfectly honest. It's lyrically uninspired and his rhymes are there just for the sake of rhyming. Eminem should have retired after releasing MMLP 2, which was the final great album by him.

    Painful. No matter how hard I try, I have not been able to squeeze an ounce of enjoyment out of this album. For me, this album is worse than revival. I got nothing out of this, it's like I just tuned the world out for an hour. The only redeeming quality was that the original music to be murdered by is also included, which is a decent album.

Eminem proves that he still is the rap god with tracks like Godzilla where at the end he seems almost superhuman the way he’s rapping so fast without breathing.

    Pretty underwhelming. Sure it’s a b side, but dang I got some revival vibes from this thing. Gnat is ok, but the gosh darn Covid bars are so cringe. There’s just a lot here that could work with better lyricism, especially on higher. Definitely a downgrade from music to be murdered by

    This was an absolute treat to listen to - he is a master wordsmith -- and the control he has over his flow is insane. He can go from silky smooth to jarring in the same song. There were such strong performances and it's one of those albums that you get something out of every time you listen.

    Eminem is one of the few artists that after so long he still makes a lot of good music. Music that you hate to listen over and over because of the hidden messages, multiple meanings or straight up good lyrics and beats.
    This man showed his middle finger to TV, radio, magazines, other important artists and he could never be stopped because of his talent and love for rap and hip hop.
    Alfred's Theme is my no. 1 song from the album and even if it's over 5 minutes the song feels like it's over way to fast.
    I'm glad that artists like him still exist. Artists that still write their own music, that you need to use your brain to understand it and even so you find out later it had more meanings.
    He is the rap god and I'm glad he didn't become Politically Correct like many other did. He still has his balls intact and ready to smack people who talk bad about him.
    It will never be someone as good as him. He's one of the many few artists that people will love even 200 years from now.
    This man doesn't even need marketing to promote his album or songs but he still becomes no. 1.
    Comparing this with people who invest so many millions in marketing to force people into liking their song (like playing it on the radio and tv over and over all day for months, ads all over the place, promotions from all kids of places) BUT Eminem does everything 100 times better without doing all of that.
    There's a lot of good songs on this album but it's so hard to stop listening to Alfred's Theme (on repeat for over 2 days and I feel like I need more).
    99% of the time I just listen to old music 60-70-80 and even 90s because I hate so much 99 of the stuff we hear today so I didn't care for music that much, at least not new music.
    I always searched for new features or songs that Eminem may have and always was disappointed when I never found anything.
    One song from this album has more complex and wonderfully written and rapped verses that you will never find in the top 10 whole career of any pop artist you see, hell, even hip hop if you talk about these days.

    "I'm still east side bi..."
    Oh yeah, this album will be on repeat for at least 6 months because I find it very hard to go to the next song when almost all of them are impossible to say no to, the repeat button is my best friend when listening to his album.
    EM gets a lot of hate but he also should know that he is also loved and gets a lot of respect from fans, including me.
    I'm not a big fan of anybody, I'm not a fan boy of anything, but Eminem's music made my childhood and even now, my adulthood less bad. It puts a smile on my face even if there's a lot of stuff that makes you think you lost that smile, forever.
    Zeus, Book of Rhymes, Tone Deaf, Alfred's Theme. Just these songs can make the best album of 2020.

    Side B opens up strong with a haunting track and then goes on a great three song run - Alfred's Theme - Tone Deaf - Book of Rhymes. Em's pen has not dulled and his ability to throw out lines with two to three meanings still blows my mind. The transition from song to song is a very subtle detail but it is done perfectly, sometimes you almost miss that the track number changed.

    This guy never stops. Shady is back and even if this is a side b, it's as solid as an entire album. His lyrical abilities, his flow, the beats and the content are outstanding. 48 years old and stil killing it. Bow down to Shady

Being a lyrical savant it's, it's almost like this is just too easy for him now. He simply puts other MC's to shame with the lyrical prowess he has. Give each song a good listen to.

    The lyricism is better than much of his recent work, because a broader spectrum of people understand the complexity without needing to be a scholar. Some Stans may hate that, but hip-hop fans are going to really vibe with the sounds and the speeds of Side B.

    Again, don't listen to whatever these critics are, this is Eminem at his very best.

    This album won't make you like Eminem. But, if you have been a fan of Eminem since the beginning, you will undoubtedly recognize this as one of his best outings.

    There are some truly standout gems on this B Side. I have grown tired of corny ballads and more mainstream pop sounding appeal. On this album he leaves most of that behind. Long have I wanted to hear Em on a underground track
    This album won't make you like Eminem. But, if you have been a fan of Eminem since the beginning, you will undoubtedly recognize this as one of his best outings.

    There are some truly standout gems on this B Side. I have grown tired of corny ballads and more mainstream pop sounding appeal. On this album he leaves most of that behind. Long have I wanted to hear Em on a underground track styled like something RA the Rugged Man or AFRO would spit over. Alfred's theme was a dream come true for me. Songs like Favorite **** Book of Rhymes, and Discombobulated are also standout gems. Oh, how could I forget Gnat?

    If you're a fan of Em and a fan of hip-hop from the era the Em is from, this album is for you.

    I have never liked every track on even Em's classics. So as an Em fan, for me to say that the majority of this album is superb is saying something.

    Eminem may not be as influential on the culture or as great of an artist as he was, but from a technical perspective, he is better here than he has ever been.

    When I heard they were releasing a Music To Be Murdered By deluxe I though it would only be like 3 or maybe 5 songs. But we get a full on 13 and I gotta say I was not dissapointed at all. Like side A this is incredible and I'm still having a hard time deciding which is better since both are masterpieces. So many incredible songs like Book of Rhymes, Alfred's Theme, Gnat, and so much more.When I heard they were releasing a Music To Be Murdered By deluxe I though it would only be like 3 or maybe 5 songs.

    Eminem at high level, awesome beats, and lyrics by Eminem. I really liked this album, it has a different vibe from kamikaze. MTBMB was strange for me, but Side B was not, it is different but not strange, it is Eminem different but it is Eminem, it is an album that pleases the stans

    Side B is a 16-track expansion that delivers familiar territory with some pops of Em at his sharpest.

    Side B is not a total miss though, nor even a miss at all. Once Mathers stumbles through this opening salvo and the awkward bits of “Tone Deaf”, the album settles into a comfortable space, and even becomes enjoyable.

    Over the three-song run of "Alfred's Theme" (which jacks Charles Gounod's "Funeral March of a Marionette," best known as the theme music to Alfred Hitchcock Presents, to delirious effect), "Tone Deaf," and "Book of Rhymes" (which climaxes with a flurry of DJ Premier scratches), Slim Shady stuffs more rewind-worthy punchlines and flow variations than most rappers will deliver in a whole career. ... Other attempts feel more forced. ... More compelling are the two tracks produced by D.A. Got That Dope.
