    Eminem back on form with deep and meaningful lyrics and wordplay. Can be enjoyed mindlessly but better if you divulge in the lyrics

    **** amazing. Truly a true testament to his skill and great writing talent. Punchline heavy and rhyme schemes were on point.

    The album brings a fresh vibe like like no other. This is Eminem on another level once again. Imo this album beats his last 2.

    Quite a comeback from Eminem on this one. His previous 2 albums were missing the spark that this one had, like many of his previous works also had. It needs to be encouraged. He needs to know he did something right this time.

    It’s a really amazing album, this is Eminem at his best. It’s fire from start to finish and people should listen to it. With each listen, it just keeps on getting better and better. Definitely recommend it.

    It’s definitely the best Eminem album since The Eminem Show. His rapping style has just gotten better for sure.

    This is his most complete body of work since MMLP2 and I like the variety of subjects in here. This album is what Revival should have been.
    The features he has here are on point, Many great hooks for his super lyrical verses. And I started the album well with the intro and ended it with amazingly with the fully stacked song ft. Slaughterhouse - Budden on "I Will".

    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.
