The Marshall Mathers LP
“Each Sunday, Pitchfork takes an in-depth look at a significant album from the past, and any record not in our archives is eligible. Today, we explore Eminem’s monumental album The Marshall Mathers LP.”
The Eminem Show
“ryan loves it and he likes mmlp too so he's all sonning me now with this 'well ethan yes perhaps i'd allow you to give the marshall mathers lp a 10.0, i mean that particular record was perfect, but not this one' yeah well you were busy talking about at the motherfucking drive in back then so let me redeem your godawful site now. jeez unless he went back on his dumb-ass 'policy' theres a nine dot o”
The Marshall Mathers LP2
“The Marshall Mathers LP 2 is the kind of sequel that gets people shouting at the screen in disbelief before their seats are warmed up. The first song, "Bad Guy," is seven white-knuckled minutes of psycho-rap insanity in which Stan's little brother comes back to chop Slim Shady into Slim Jims, tossing him into the trunk and driving around Detroit – listening to The Marshall Mathers LP, of course. "”
Recovery
“What is an Eminem album in the post-Eminem era? It’s a problem the rapper has been grappling with for some time now. For a few years — from the release of his major-label debut, The Slim Shady LP (1999), through the big-screen triumph of 8 Mile (2002) — Em’s stranglehold on the zeitgeist was complete. […]”
Relapse
“So how did Eminem spend his time off? Drugs, mostly. "I fall in bed with a bottle of meds and a Heath Ledger bobblehead" doesn’t even begin to cover it. Relapse, Em’s first album in nearly five years, is studded with brand names, but not Lexus or Cristal — more like Lunesta, Ambien, Vicodin, Valium, […]”
Curtain Call: The Hits
“This inevitable hits package raises an obvious question: Are three so-so new songs, decent sequencing and a track commemorating a surreal TV moment enough to make you buy thirteen (great) songs all over again? Hard to say, but now that Marshall Mathers seems close to retiring, it’s hard to hate on a CD with unforgettable […]”
The Marshall Mathers LP
“The Marshall Matthers LP is the second studio album from acclaimed rapper Eminem and in my honest opinion it’s his best work by a long shot, from the great production to the lyrical themes, some of the best tracks of his catalog are on this album and it’s understandable in why it was such a huge phenomenon in the early 2000s”
The Slim Shady LP
“Surprised by this one. Never really listed to an entire Eminem record. I can deal with this. He is really a magician when it comes to lyrics and rhyming. Impressive.”
Kamikaze
“Has a few really good tracks, but most of the songs sound sonically terrible as well as edgy”
The Marshall Mathers LP
“Some of the best tracks of all time are on the first half of this thing. But around track 8 or 9 it gets pretty much unlistenable. Sad! Great project for what it is though.”
