Advantages: great songs, great lyrics Disadvantages: not enough songs :)
The Marshall Mathers LP, is Eminem's 3rd album and easily his best. This album is brilliantly produced by Dr. Dre. Eminem is quite possibly the only rap i like, i'm not a fan of it. But Eminem has a skill that is undeniable. There is many many tracks that you can listen to over and over and over again and not get bored with. The skit's are really funny and this album has some of the best lyrics i've ever heard.

...case you are wondering what Marshall mathers means, it is the real name of eminem. So why should u buy this album (if you have not bought it already)! Because this album rocks! Then what makes this album so great? The main reasons are
1) The hard-hitting lyrics, which I dig.
2) The rapping by eminem is excellent.
3) The music is perfect rap music, which again I dig.
4) The ‘extra’ rapping by artists like Dr dre, Snoop Dogg, Sticky ...

Advantages: original, excellent lyrics, wonderful songs, this man is a genius Disadvantages: don't play this in front of the kids !!
...guy is a STAR ! Marshall Mathers aka The Real Slim Shady aka Eminem is a genius. Yes, he is angry, he sings about often taboo subjects and a lot of his songs are disturbing, but he is unique and original.
I bought this album after loving the three singles on it - The Way I Am, The Real Slim Shady and his latest hit, Stan. I saw his (censored) videos on MTV and was interested enough to look up the lyrics on the Internet. When you read them, they ...

Advantages: Great rapper, very talented, sybolic Disadvantages: Maybe a little over the top
I don't know much about music, but I know what I like. And I don't like this. I love it!!!!! It is an excellent album from the Blonde Detroit punk who I consider to be the greatest Lyric writer ever; Eminem combines his Rap with elements of Hip-Hop and some truly hilarious lyrics.
Eminem has had an interesting and bitter-sweet life. His main idol whilst growing up was his Unlce Ronnie. He was the only one who supported Mathers and tried to encourage ...

Advantages: The 2nd greatest rapper ro ever live Disadvantages: A little violent but its only music
...wife-beating homophobe. On the "The Marshall Mathers LP", Eminem shows us that he is a real person, not to be confused with fiction. Of course, people still don't get it. All I can say to these people is; your loss. You're missing out on one of the greatest artists of our time.
This is similar to the controversy over James Joyce's classic novel "Ulysses". It was viewed as obscene and even pornographic when first published, but it is now considered ...

Outstanding Review ofMarshall Mathers LP, The (Explicit) - Eminemby
ibirkmyre
Advantages: great songs Disadvantages: talkin tracks
This has to be the better out of the albums. I only perchased this album because one of my friend wouldn't shut up until I did. I didn't think it would be very good because I'd never really liked rap before but this oppinion changed after I listened to it. The only trouble is I can't play it too loud when my parents are in the house as they don't approve of all the bad language. Some of the tracks are a waist of time like the 'the slim shady LP' where ...

Advantages: Funny, gets you in the mood for killing! Disadvantages: Strong language may offend.
...The songs are all about Marshall Mathers (Eminem) and his problems with his life, eg his wife kids and social life. Anyway, buy this album if you think you won't mind the lyrics but if you are easily offended stay well clear! ...

Genius Review ofMarshall Mathers LP, The (Explicit) - Eminemby
Totally_mad_4000
Advantages: Lyrics. Funny. Every song is good. Disadvantages: Contradicts himself.
This is quite simply one of the best and funniest albums I have yet heard. Every single track is absolutely great from The Real Slim Shady to his latest single Stan everyone is cool. If you buy only one rap album in your whole week make it this one. Eminem has shown that he does not need Dr Dre on every track for them to be a hit. I think he does contradict himself when after saying he really cares about his fans in Stan he then says in The Way I ...

Deeper Than Dylan? Review ofMarshall Mathers LP, The (Explicit) - Eminemby

Advantages: You can hear and understand all the words. Disadvantages: You can hear and understand all the words.
...scene and calls to violence, Marshall Mathers manages to upset everyone. If he hasn't got you looking for the phone number of the Moral Majority then it's an oversight, man, and he's truly sorry. But if you are prepared to imperil your immortal soul by listening to this Devils Music, then what a treat you have in store.
Eminem or Marshall Mathers or Slim Shady or whatever persona he's wearing at the moment, is a poet, lyricist and story-teller to ...

The rapper has had great sucess from this album quickly becoming the most popular rap album of all time. All the hit releases are on here including the latest. The songs are unrepetitive and include featured artists like Dr Dre and Snoop Dog. This album is an excellent addition ...

It Mathers To Me Review ofMarshall Mathers LP, The (Explicit) - Eminemby
JamesGlew
Advantages: Disadvantages:
...and crazy, yet thoughtful lyrics. Marshall Mathers did not disappoint me. From the sublime Kim, a song where he plays the part of his <then> wife and himself in an argument leading up to him killing her, to the British number one The Real Slim Shady, Eminem takes us on a trip through his mind, swearing, homophobia and beautifully twisted ideas mixing with fast beats, catchy styles and diverse music. A couple of songs let the side down, but the rest ...

Advantages: Catchy choruses and bumpin'g beats that keep you up all night. Disadvantages: Tired in the morning becaus eyou've been kept up all night!
After a comic 1st album, Marshall Mathers has returned with an excellant more serious album. So fat it's been top of the American charts for 8 weeks and its easy to see why. 80% of the songs are catchy and enjoyable and all will cause you to hit the repeat button on your system. Eminem attacks political situations and eats away at his enimies. Some people criticise Marshall for his outrageous lyrics, but why did they buy the album in the first place ...

Who would have thought Review ofMarshall Mathers LP, The (Explicit) - Eminemby
dragon989
Advantages: fun, Disadvantages: some don't like the bad swearing
Eminem has come about from nowhere in the world of Rap. Who would have thought that such a foul mouthed loud mouthed guy off the street would make it as a big time white rapper? No-one is the answer, which is why it is great. On the Cd are some great songs such as Stan, The real Slim Shady, and Criminal. I wouldn't recommend this Cd though to the light hearted person as there is an awful amount of swearing, taking about drugs and death. I like the ...

a load of rubish Review ofMarshall Mathers LP, The (Explicit) - Eminemby
Haylien
Advantages: there are tracks on the disk Disadvantages: its a load of rubish full of bad language, and it's not entertaining at all.
never have I ever heard such a rubbish album. The language that eminem uses in this album is disgusting, what is this teaching children? He isn't even talented all he does is put a load of swearing in his songs and everyone loves him for it. He should be banned from releasing albums like this. Can't he just release the tracks without the swearing in it instead! I would NEVER advise anyone to buy this album. The songs aren't even entertaining and after ...
