Editorial Review:

Amazon.com:
Any lingering doubts as to the depth of Eminem's skills or his potential for raw yet compelling honesty are dispelled on The Eminem Show's first track. 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

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Eminem At His Most Intelligent
I would argue that this album has the most complicated rap poetry from Eminem, in comparison to all his other albums. He sticks to the subject and weaves intense rhymes with strong structure. Encore and Relapse are less composed and more "spit out", while the "Eminem Show" feels like it has been scripted and perfected for years. As with all Eminem albums, The Show contains some instant classics. For some people, theres more classics on this album because he takes his talent a little more seriously ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - satisfied!

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - BEST RAP RECORD EVER- DESERVES 100 STARS
Listening to this CD, 7 years later, I still maintain what I said back in 2002... this is THE greatest rap record of ALL time by ANY artist.

This is absolutely a timeless masterpiece from start to finish. Every single song is over the top. Best song of all = Sing for the Moment.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - WORTH BUYING LIKE THE LAST 1.
I know everyone says the Marshall Mathers LP is the best Eminem album to date I tend to defer. Reason why he seems to have more story depth in his lyrics on this album. Because, of his rap superstardom, personal life, and legal troubles on this album than the Marshall Mathers LP album. Instead of talking about drugs, pistols, fags, his mom and, killing people. Em has tracks like "White America" Em raises the curtain to his Eminem show album with vengeance talking about the government and his rise and power ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - This is the album with Serious Eminem
I liked this album because eminem raps seriously in this one. with songs like "sing for the moment", "Cleaning out my closet", "white america " and so many others could really tell that eminem is no longer playing games and demands respect. One of my favorite songs on the album is "soldier" because of the anger he puts into it. So what you waiting for go and order this album.
