Eminem

The Marshall Mathers LP

Good follow up for Eminem

Review Score:

(8/10)
Eminem returned a little after 2 years for his sophomore project, one that would be at the time the fastest selling rap album ever and in the long run selling upwards to 10 million copies. A good album but my least favorite (along with Encore) of his 4 solo ones. Not as comical as his first, but it still has its moments, as well as a few more darker songs about his family and his growing up. Features a few more guests on this one, and Dre handled a little more of the production, doing about two thirds of the albums beats. Has about 2 or 3 songs that I skip but has about 3 classics as well. A good album to have for rap fans nevertheless.

#2 - 6.5
#3 - 10 (a classic deep song about a fan - Stan - who goes crazy when not receiveing mail back from a star)
#5 - 7.5
#7 - 9
#8 - 8 (addressing all the fake Slim Shady's that popped up after Eminem blew up)
#9 - 6 (f/ RBX & Sticky Fingaz)
#10 - 7
#11 - 8.5
#13 - 8.5
#14 - 7 (f/ Bizarre of D12)
#15 - 10 (classic remix - f/ Dr. Dre, Snoop Dogg, Xzibit, Nate Dogg - Em has a hilarius verse on this one - great beat)
#16 - 8.5 (prequel to the song off the first album where he kills his ex - Kim)
#17 - 10 (classic song about getting fu*k*d up - f/ D12 (Proof, Kuniva, Kon Artis, Swifty, Bizarre - great beat)
#18 - 9
