Advantages: Fantastic opening track and good accompanaiment to film Disadvantages: Some tracks are poor and does not contain freestyle sessions from film
I have to admit, I was slightly disappointed with this album when I first bought it shortly after watching the film (which I thought was fantastic). Firstly, the CD does not contain the freestyle sessions from the movie, which are, in my eyes, the highlight of the motion picture. Secondly, the overall quality of the tracks is not as solid as I expected. The album opens with 'Lose Yourself', which is sublime. However, the rest of the album fails to ... ...disappointing. 'Adrenaline Rush' could be considered a highlight, but isn't really anything special. Jay-Z appearing on track 7 lifts the competition slightly, but other than that this album isn't really anything special, and lacks the grit other rap albums have.
If you loved the film and are a huge fan of Eminem then this is worth buying. The record is by no means a failure, but it could be better. It's a shame that a fantastic film about music ...

Additional notes
Album Notes: Although the 8 MILE soundtrack links to a semi-autobiographical film featuring hip-hop bad-boy Eminem, the controversial rapper maintains a low profile on the CD. The man known as Marshall Mathers appears on a mere four tracks including "Love Me," an ominous-sounding collaboration with proteges Obie Trice and 50 Cent, who both appear with solo cuts of their own. 50 Cent's verbal skills have already landed him a joint Eminem/Dr. Dre label deal and earned him plenty of street cred thanks to the underground hit "Wanksta," which appears here along with the equally tasty "Places To Go." Other members of the Eminem/Dre axis who appear are D12 (a thumping "Rap Game") and Xzibit (the equally vicious "Spit Shine").
