This record is my personal favorite thus far from Eminem. Every track is a banger. There’s not one skip. Eminem expects the listener to complete this album start-to-finish and it really shows. The storytelling and wordplay is top-notch, with vivid and world-building details throughout. The track list also follows a chronological order, and each feels perfectly placed. The instrumentals are also nothing short of fantastic, except for Just Don’t Give a Fuck, where a really cool beat ... read more
It’s an okay album with very jarring musical choices. Some tracks are fun, well-written, and upbeat while others are frankly uninteresting and un engaging. It’s a short time investment, so I didn’t mind it too much, but I just about fell asleep in the middle of the album. The vocals are also an incredibly mixed bag. It’s obvious that some members can pull it off better than others. My least favorite track was “Door-to-Door” because of the incredibly jarring ... read more
Everyone wants a goth gf until 90% of her music taste is shit like this. Not to bandwagon, but this is so ass bruh.
One could definitely make a case for this being NIN's best album. For me, it had some bloat, but overall, it was a great package.
First track overstays its welcome, the second is really fun and got several replays out of me. Pretty solid package.
Woke transfem here. All of you are pussies who can’t handle jokes equivalent to 2000s Eminem. Grow tf up.
Thank you Sasha for making my favorite band sound generic as hell and releasing a frankly near-identical remaster to an album that didn’t need it.
Bad albums hurt even more when there’s great potential behind them. For my, the lyricism absolutely ruined it for me. Maybe I’m just a grouch but I can stand neither the vocal delivery nor the on-the-nose and obnoxious nature of them. The production is solid, but every instrumental sounds nearly identical and I don’t fw it.
I enjoyed a lot of songs on this album. I was also bored by a lot. Eminem's lyrics are honestly a lot simpler and drier than I remember, but that's because my dad used to bump this when I was little. The instrumentals are great at times, and are basic-ass boring drum loops at others. Sometimes Em raps about something hard-hitting and intriguing, and other times, he drops the f-slur 20 times and it ruins the pacing of the song.
This album is definitely a product of its time and it ... read more

Pretty much the same as my last review, but all of the newer tracks are better.
I originally really liked this album on my first go, but after I exited the honeymoon phase, I hardly wanted to revisit most of it. There are plenty of standout moments with production on this album, but it's always sort of hindered by Carti's strange new delivery, a short runtime, Swamp Izzo's annoying ass producer tag and ad-libs, or any of the above. Carti tries branching out into other musical styles throughout the album, but his crude bars and frankly lazy delivery give the ... read more
