Armed with a quicksilver flow and a thundering rhythm track (the record was exec produced by longtime mentor and partner Dr. Dre), "White America" finds Eminem ferociously mauling the hand that feeds him, lambasting his critics, the industry, and the racism that, in many ways, helped make Marshall Mathers more than just another rapper. "Let's do the math," Em sneers, "If I was black I would have sold half/ I could be one of your kids/ Little Eric looks just like this." After the bombast of The Marshall Mathers LP and Eminem's well-noted use of sexual epithets, this kind of material is made more controversial because it actually rings true. From a brutal retort to his long-estranged and equally troubled mother ("Cleaning Out My Closets") to a surprisingly tender ode to his child ("Hailie's Song"), Eminem examines his life, loves, arrests, addictions, failures, and successes with surprising insight, making this a funk-drenched hip-hop confessional well worth the hype. --Amy Linden Average Rating:
 Rating:  - It is a classic...In my opinion, this is Eminems best work. This is a classic album from start to finish. This has got to be in the top 100 rap albums of all time. It's Eminem's lyrics and Dr.Dre's beats. What more can you ask for? Rating: - It's hard being young, from the slums, eatin' five cent gums, not knowing where your next meal is coming from ..."Things done changed ..." -- Notorious B.I.G. Some folks might be wondering what's going on with Marshall/Slim at the moment. His absence on the music scene, despite how you might feel about him, is noticeable. His music is singular, even in such a prolific field as Rap is and even with as many people that are on his CD, whether as a performer, a producer or a mixer. Historically, the people that have walked in his shoes never faired very well, whether it was through continued ...

Rating: - Eminem's defining momentWell, with 800 or so reviews on here, there's really nothing I can add that hasn't been said already...But I still have to say something, after all, this is one my favorite rap cds of all time. Yes, I'm a white boy Metal head, but I do love some Rap too. Bone Thugs is the group that got me into rap about 10 years ago, back in 1999. I didn't really got into Eminem until 2002, although I did actually hear some of the Slim Shady LP back in 1999 when it first came out. The Eminem Show is ...

This album he still kept it true, but he shows a lot more emotion and a lot less of his original psycho persona that was known on previous albums. This was my favorite album for years and still remains one of my favorites with every song bangable and lyrical. A must have if you love true hip hop and especially if you are an Eminem fan. 1.
