Best album since Marshall Mathers LP. Love every song. Even after I’m to the point where I’m stuck in the music I grew up with, I have to make room for this one too.

UPDATE: VERY few accent songs on this album. Most is old-school eminem sound! Great shit!

To those of you who haven’t heard the album and are thinking all the reviews are negative: NO, THEY AREN’T. Everyone I know who are true Em fans fuckin’ love this album. It’s easily his best since MMLP. His flow is sick, the beats are hot, and the wordplay is amusing and impressive. It IS a grower album, and I wasn’t overwhelmed the first time (except for a few tracks like Underground), but after 5 or 6 listens… DAMN! This is a phenomenal piece of art. Skeptical? Just listen to the second half of the album. The first half pales in comparison. Check out these highlights:

-Underground
-Stay Wide Awake
-DejaVu
-Must Be the Ganja
-Medicine Ball

That’s for the fans of the more serious, intense Eminem. If you like the lighter/goofier side, check out:

-Insane (lives up to its name BIG TIME!)
-My Mom
-Beautiful
-3 AM (serious, but has the playful accent I’m not fond of, and a more catchy/pop like tune)
-We Made You (one of my least favorites, but a lot of people like catchy shit)

Honorable Mentions:

-Bagpipes from Baghdad
-Hello
-Old Time’s Sake
-Same Song and Dance

Overall, 9/10, and some of his best work I’ve heard. And I’m a fan all the way back to Infinite. I wasn’t expecting ANYTHING after the poor album “Encore”, but this is Em at his (almost) finest. Seriously, who the fuck doesn’t like some of these brilliant tracks?? Just the first 5 I mentioned are CLASSIC SHIT! Can’t please everyone though…

Who cares about the accent its alot of rappers with annoying voices u listen to the music for its content not who has the nicest voice. no one complains about lil waynes accents he uses on every song he put out.

Idk about you guys but i wouldnt be so quick to hate on the album…cuz the best songs on eminems albums werent his singles…think about it…just dont give a fuck, still dont give a fuck, marshall mathers, criminal, kill you, til i collapse, soldier, even yellow brick road…i think these two songs sound hot and its great to hear songs thats actually have a concept behind each and every one for once…thats been missing for a lonnngggg time from an artist who can push a mil in the first week…relapse and relapse 2- the only choices for album of the year
