    It's got 5 out of 18 songs that I like. I am really bored with his supersonic flow, it doesn't sound cool it's just annoying.

    Great album, great features, great rhymes and clever bars with double triple quadruple, etc entendres. He is a metaphorical monster and a lyrical genius. LOVE IT.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. It’s a mid album, he dropped some fire songs but with 22 songs it’s way too long with little replay value. About half the songs were not good with lackluster corny lyrics. Expand

    Amazing beats and talks about real issues Maybe one too many romantic cheating songs again but those songs are fun and just nice to bob to. Dont expect every single song to be serious.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Eminen’s 11th album offers over an hour of the world’s greatest rapper blasting away on all cylinders. It is the first great album of 2020, so lethally brilliant it should be a crime. Expand

    This is best eminem album after RECOVERY. Critics even rated MMLP & TES very low, but yeah they don't understand, rapper in his late 40's can't sell & rhyme & use metaphors like eminem... four decades & he's rulling. so suck critics

    One of the best Eminem projects yet. Amazing flows. He sounds hungry again also being controversial (which we love ofc).

    Classic 5 mic, 10 star, 100/100, certified fresh (whatever metric you use) albums rarely can be determined after the first listen. Yea, I know, the first time we all heard XXXplosive, we knew we were listening to a banger, but classic...a classic takes time to see if it can stand up to the fickleness of the culture.

    Outkast, Snoop, Big, Kanye, Jay, Em, Dre, Cube, Tribe, have all
    Classic 5 mic, 10 star, 100/100, certified fresh (whatever metric you use) albums rarely can be determined after the first listen. Yea, I know, the first time we all heard XXXplosive, we knew we were listening to a banger, but classic...a classic takes time to see if it can stand up to the fickleness of the culture.

    Outkast, Snoop, Big, Kanye, Jay, Em, Dre, Cube, Tribe, have all blessed the culture with perfect albums in their hay day. Outkast, arguably has 2, Dre has produced several, and now add to that list his latest work with Shady.

    The album has heft, and feels heavy for modern culture to blast in 1 session. But inevitably when my attention is drawn elsewhere after 5 tracks, and i put it down, walking away feeling like Shady has been resurrected. Then, minutes, hours, or days later, when I come back to the album, and hit play again, I am transported to that same feeling.

    MTBMB is a literally the definition of a banger. Shady gives you so many different styles and transitions. Is it perfect, no. That's not why I am giving it 10 stars. I would have left 1 or 2 songs off the LP. But, is it a classic? **** YES. The double entendres, puns, imagery, storytelling, leap frog any album released in the past 10 years.

    Guess who's back...

    Grande album, Eminem simplesmente provou a mídia que ao contrário dos que muitos pensam, a idade dele não interfere de fazer uma boa música.

    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.
