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: 5 out of 5 stars - The last great Eminem album...
While `Recovery' may be his comeback (and it's quite a comeback), `The Eminem Show' is clearly the last `great' album Eminem dropped. From thought provoking yet playful lyrics to slick beats that lace his determined delivery, this album has rarely a dull moment. Sure, it contains one of his single worst songs (`Drips'), but it also contains a slew of his best.

The album opens with a string of strength, starting with `White America'. The song is targeted at, but not limited to, the ... Read More


Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Amazing
One of Eminem's best, absolute lyrical genius with Eminem producing makes for a great album. 5/5.


Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - stuck in car cd player
It was "slightly used" never had problem before with my CD player in my car until this CD. It has been stuck in there for a week now and I can't get it out. Will never buy "slightly used" CD's again.


Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Simply the Best
This is Eminem's best CD. It has stood the test of time and is the standard by which all of Em's CD's should be judged.


Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Beware - MP3 Download is the Clean Version
I used to own the actual CD of this album, and it is brilliant. Eminem has really creative grooves, and his lyrics and delivery are outstanding.

But the download is the clean version. Not that I crave curse words, but when you are listening to Eminem, "bad words" are kinda frequent and he uses them to great effect. The constant "scratches" to cover the words is just distracting, and interrupts the groove.

On a more philosophical note, shouldn't the product you order be ... Read More
