    Such a great album. Just going through it from 1st song to last song is so easily doable and full of different flows and beat switches it’s just beautiful.

    His best album, instant classic. This has no skips, great replay value and even the worst songs still are good songs, incredible album, i didn't expect him to overcome any of his classics, but he did it. This man is a pure genius and he gets better with time, this album is evolution at its best.

    This album is Em on another level again, trying out new styles and flows and still making great songs. Please name a rapper thats even coming close lyrically, i’ll wait. If someone tels you there are no bars they probably dont own ears.

    Each song has an aspect of the old Eminem that made him a huge star back when he first came into the scene. I would highly recommend his album to anyone

    If this isn’t 10/10 I don’t know what is, the production is perfect, the lyrics are complex and dope and the feature list is on point.

    Eminem with this album is just toying around the hip hop world. Trying everything all at once. He has evolved into a lyric machine who can switch flow to match any beat on this planet. Also in this album he turned to a little modern hip hop by adding catchy hooks and flow that keep the new kids stuck to it. So 10/10

    Incredible artist that provides his fans with so much to appreciate. Never half asses his work, he clearly puts everything he has into expressing how he feels through music while bringing creative flows, voices, rhyme schemes, voices, metaphors, lessons, stories, visualizations and on and on and on, this dude is a legend and inspiration.

    Amazing albums with maybe only 3 skips. It's better than his recent albums except his first 3 classics and Relapse!

    This album is a solid 7/10. Definitely a return to form for Eminem, and his best album since MMLP2. Not perfect, but I hope this is the start of an upswing for Em. Great production and features, but some songs are held back by iffy lines and dull production.

    HIGHLIGHTS: Godzilla, Yah Yah, Darkness, You Gon' Learn Note: I know I rated this 10/10 even though I said it's a 7/10, this is

    Note: I know I rated this 10/10 even though I said it's a 7/10, this is because of the sheep review-bombing the album because it was too high for their liking.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I personally love every song on this album. I put it up with Marshal Mathers LP, Slim shady LP, and The Eminem Show. He destroyed every beat on the record and his wordplay is outta this world. And the Bombing line was one of my favorites because it reminds me if the Columbine line I'm back. Expand

    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.
