Rating: - 'mazin album

i've listen 2 this album again and again and i still think it's great. The lirics r amazing and the songs just outclass everyone else. I think he could have used xzibit a bit more and dr dre's mixes would have made it even better, but i still think this album proves what a talented rapper eminem is.

Rating: - an excellent album

this album, i think was better than the slim shady lp. ken kaniff was a bit pointless but the rest of the album was really good and easy to sing along to and play really loud.

Rating: - I think it is okay,very rude but some songs are good.

I gave this album 3 stars because the rude parts let it down.If it did not have any swearing in i would give it 5. the best track is probaly the real slim shady.

Rating: - A Small Step Backwards

Eminem is a great rapper, there can be no denying that. His verbal dexterity is way above his compatriots, and his ability to take the mick out of the fabricated pop industry is perhaps one of his biggest talents. However, in my opinion, it is the utilisation of this talent which in my opinion has had a detrimental effect on his album.

If you listen to his first album - The Slim Shady LP, you will notice an immediate difference between the two. Eminem's lyrics in the first album are different - he does not go about dissing popstars like N*Sync and Britney Spears every two seconds. His lyrics have more of a real meaning, as they are about being broke and poor.

The annoying thing about the Marshall Mathers LP is that he has continued to use skits, despite the fact that they are utterly pointless.

There are many plus points to the Marshall Mathers LP though. There are a large number of top quality songs - Stan and The Real Slim Shady spring immediately to mind. However, in my opinion the best song on the album is without a doubt The Way I Am. This song carries on in the style of many of his songs on the Slim Shady LP.

Eminem is a controversial character. However, the people who find offense at his lyrics should really take a reality check. The lyrics are intended as a joke. Elton John, himself a gay, said himself that he found Eminem's homophobic lyrics "hilarious." I personally didn't find any offense in his lyrics. I can see where people can find offense, but the lyrics should be taken lightly.

If you have money to burn, I would recommend that you buy both this and the Slim Shady LP. However, if you only want to buy one, then I suggest you buy the Slim Shady LP as it is a better album (but only just.) I will be interesting to see how good his third album, oFF the Wall is.

Rating: - PURE CLASS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This album is pure brilliance. The music is outstanding and worth anybodys money. The highlights of the cd are Stan, Marshall Mathers, Kim and every other track. His first cd was pretty good but this is far better. There is nothing bad about this cd and if you haven't allready got it buy it right now!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
