Fri Sep 25 2009I wish that eminem would do another album like this. The album is so hilarious and fun to listen too. You could really tell how hungry eminem was because the lyrics were so strong and the flow was so smooth. If your a person that likes to hear about chaos and Destruction than this is the album for you.

Wed Jul 15 2009I know I am 9 years late to review this album, but I needed to give it the review it deserved anyways. For anybody who is an Eminem fan, the Marshall Mathers LP is generally regarded as Em's best work. For anybody who is a fan of rap in general, this album is arguably one of the finest ever released. There is not a single track on this disc that is worth skipping over, even the skits do a good job leading into other tracks, and although typically "filler", there never seems to be an itch (even after countless spins) to skip over any of them. The lyrical content here is what really draws you in. This is Eminem at his rawest, and the shock factor still registers this far into the album's life. Although some tracks have that off the wall childish humor, the majority are made up of angst-driven yet mature subject matter that will connect even with an older audience. It's controversial, it's deep, it's though provoking and still capable of producing conversation between two people if lis... Read more

Tue Jun 02 2009this is eminem at his best every song is worth listening this album is deep and a takes on a wild ride across marshall mathers life growing up. But besides that the songs are catchy and are very well produced with the help of dr. dre. If you are a eminem fan or just a hip hop fan this is a must buy!

Mon May 25 2009Many love Eminem. Some think he's a genius, a true artist, and one of the greatest rappers ever. Others think he's just a poser who is misogynistic, homophobic, and vulgar. Listening to this album makes me fall into the former category, and I'm proud to be there. I think Eminem is a real artist, and a damn good one. This is one of his best albums, and whenever I play it, it still has the powerful impact of when I heard it first. Unlike a lot of rap albums which date once the shock value is over, The Marshall Mathers LP stands tall. This album has some of Eminem's greatest songs. The darkly hilarious Kill You is a great starter for the album. The song Stan is a great song, with a fantastic backing track by Dido, and Eminem's lyrics really tell the story well of an obsessed fan and how hard it is for him to deal with it. It's a powerful and sad song, and Eminem's performance is brilliant. The song Who Knew is wonderful and filled with dark humour. The line about the late ... Read more

Fri Dec 14 2007As much as a lot of hip hop fans love to hate him, you can't really deny Eminem. When you get down to it, he's one of the best rappers in the game (yes, I just said "in the game"). Eminem is an unapologetic badass, and it's awesome. Songs like "Stan" and "The Way I Am" basically defined pop music the year this record came out. Another 5 star rating? Yup.

Mon Aug 13 2007i can't understand how anyone can dis this album?! garbage?? it is one of the biggest selling albums of all time!! shady at his best and this is the album by which all his future ones will be compared. This is his Sgt Peppers Only Heart Club Band, his Morning Glory, his Nevermind and deserves to be in a list with all thoses albums, not just the best in hiphop! This album shocked and amazed in equal measure and was the last by shady to be written on pure passion. The eminem show and encore both have there moments but have neither the passion or the rage that made this album so good. with this album shady made himself the spokesperson for and the face of hip hop and since this album only kanye west has made an album that has made people speak of a new face of hip hop.

Mon Nov 10 2003This is a top tenner, lyrics, beats, subject matter was all over, made you bob your head to the beat or laugh. Eminem definitely put his all into this album. Stan, Who Knew, I'll kill you, the list goes on and on.... this is a must have.
by chadovermyer
Wed Aug 13 2003Every Eminem CD is a 5star cd to me. And I don't know what song you people are talking about where he says he beats his daughter. The only thing I've heard in his songs is how much he loves his daughter. As far as Kim, yea he does rap about killing her. It's a joke, lighten up.

Wed Jun 27 2001I like his CD'S . He needs to get more respect for his mom. His 15 yr old bro wants to go to privite school but he wont help out!!
by pit_bull
Mon May 21 2001I think he needs to find a new hobby besides makin fun of everyone, I bet if someone came out into the rapping gig and started making fun of him (especially if they were also white) I think he would be highly affended!
by ifyourhappycla_p21
Fri May 11 2001I ABSOLUTELY love Eminem, my parents hate him, but oh well, HE'S AWESOME, He is SOOOO hott! AHHHHH, And he has the best songs, I hate when people take him seriously and they go hide in there closets cause they think Slim Shady is in their back seat with the duct tape stretched out, lol.
by meee338c
Wed May 02 2001I think theres nothin wrong with eminems liyrcs and cd. I think he should be able to sing like he dose without cathching a buch of bull. So for everyone who thinks his songs are bad they can golook at the bull other people sing.
by three_six_joej_oe
Thu Mar 22 2001Yo! I think that Em is tha best rapper to hit tha charts. I think that his Cd just made his popularity rise. Also i think he should rap more about ICP cause they suck and thats a fact.

Mon Mar 19 2001Worst record I have ever heard. I would take it if I had it,and wipe my ass with it. THANKYOU
by tripchick
Sat Mar 17 2001Eminem may talk trash about people, but sometimes you have to go past the cover of the book! I think that Eminem is extremely talented and it's not because he's a white boy who can rap! He isn't scared to speak his mind and be honest about how he feels! That takes guts even if it makes everyone else sick! I know everyone else has opinions too, and I'm not trashin anyone who disagrees, I'm open for comments! ([email protected])

Thu Mar 08 2001This cd is another eminem classic. Though the rhymes on this one are not as involed as on the first one, the beats and creativity move this album right along.
by badkittie223
Sat Mar 03 2001I like Eminem's songs and sh*t. but I don't think that he should put down girls. Girls ICP are the only 2 things that he should keep his ugly nose out of. Peace.

Sat Feb 24 2001EMINEM is the most talented rap & hip-hop artist i have ever heard. I have both of his albums & both have lived up to expected standerds, BEST MUSIC EVER!! The lyrics are not only funny but also apply to real life, he says whats on his mind & that can be really hard to come accross these days. I say, Em rocks!!! I've been a hardcore fan ever since 'Hi, my name is'.

Fri Feb 23 2001Eminem has flow, can stick to a subject, is lyrically on point, and has the greatest production with Dr. Dre. He rhymes about real life situations. Some of the lyrics are what people call "demeaning" but guess what?? Life isn't perfect. 80% of the stuff he talks about runs through our minds atleast once in our lifetime and he is one of the few people to have the balls to say it. How many songs can one make about sex, diamonds, and money?? Not too many beofre it starts to get old. That's why Eminem is successful, because he keeps it real. Much success to Em in the future. On this CD, I especially like the track "Remember Me" with RBX and Sticky Fingaz. This album is a must have.

Fri Feb 16 2001I think Em and Elton will be one of the most historical musical events in the history of the Grammys! They sure know how to boost the ratings!!!!! I am a great fan of both.

by beatleman70
Fri Jan 26 2001Will someone drag this worthless piece of crap into the street and blow a hole in his face? I say this in reference to all rap, hip-hop, jungle music, whatever you call it, it all sucks, is unoriginal and is an embarassment to this country and normal, real people.

Thu Jan 25 2001Eminem is the greatest solo rapper going in the business right now. His words flow together really well. You cant beat this album.
by custarduk
Tue Jan 23 2001I have a real problem with swearing, and this album is full of it, its not easy to listen to music when alot of the words are swearing. I enjoy the music of Eminem and other artists similar to him but how about stopping the swearing. Thanks

Mon Jan 15 2001see, i dont see why everyone hates up on marshall. his lyrics are great. they shouldn't dis his imagination. they should be supporting it. and to all the parents who hate his guts, chill out. not everything he mentions in his verses tell the truth about his life or actions. you adults shouldn't care about what he writes. GET A SENSE OF HUMOR -fLeSh87
