    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.

    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.

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

    Horrible. No taste and the same old man who raps about disturbing things. He sucks

    He is trash, so is this album. He need to grow up, it's 2020, you can't rap about certain things.

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

    Simply fantastic. Production, features and don’t even get me started on the lyricism. Absolutely incredible that at 47 Eminem can continue to surprise me.

    I fantastic direction for future releases! Revival was missing proper production and kamikaze was missing content, this album out the two together nicely!

    It’s great, dunno why so many people trashing it. You can’t compare it to MMLP and other early albums but I’ve listened since it released and it’s getting better and better.

    One of Em's best works lately. Not a single filler song out 20 tracks. It's just great.

    Absolutely terrible album. Whilst I like the MMLP and the SSLP, Eminem has fallen off hard. his reliance on shock has waded off into the minimum of irrelevancy and the maximum of making fun of terrorist attacks. His flows do not match with the terrible beats that accompany the melodies. Just because he raps fast doesn't mean he's good at rapping, sub-par lyrics do not make it up for theAbsolutely terrible album.

I swear that these people never understood the consequences of following a person blindly with absolutely no criticisms as seen in 'Stan'. Eminem himself makes fun of people for having no skill, yet his music becomes a washed up pair whenever he does release anything. Expand

    This album is straight fire! Production, beats, hooks and the features are amazing! The whole project is a banger. One of his classics and his best album since TES

    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.
