Eminem - Marshall Mathers LP

IP: AB23 98FF

Yes, old album... But I believe its his best yet. Long review...



Kill You - First of all this is a good song. But I'm not feeling the beat. It is a good beat but just doesn't appeal to me that much. The lyrics... Haha, These lyrics are dope as hell... Basically a bunch of threats, and like most Eminem songs he raps about a bunch of things that people DON'T want him to rap about but does it anyway... Just nonsense.. but its dope nonsense. Another reason why I love this album. Hes still wild in his lyrics. Compare this cd to Encore and see how he has changed his flow to suit who he raps with and those on Shady Records. Got off topic a little there but I may do this a few times during the review. 8/10

Favorite Lines:

They said I can't rap about being broke no more,
They ain't say I can't rap about coke no more,
SLUT! You think I won't choke no whore,
Till her vocal cords don't work in her throat no more...

Know why I say these things? Cause ladies screams,
Keep creepin in Shady's dreams, And the way things seems,
I shouldn't have to pay these shrinks, this 80 G's,
a week to say the same thing tweece!
Twice... whatever I hate these things,
Fuck shots... I hope the weed'll outweight these drinks,
Mother fuckers want me to come on their radio show,
Just to argue with them cause their ratings stink...



Stan - This song is dope. I know alot of people don't like this as much as I do.. But I enjoy listening to it. Espcially with Dido singing in the chorus. That adds extra dopeness to it. The lyrics as dope aswell. He tells a good story in that song (not true though) and its really emotional. Along with telling the story he tells the story with a good consistency and doesn't just quit ryhming so the story will work. He is constantly ryhmes. AND he has multis. DOPE... Beat is relaxing too... I would give this a 9/10

Favorite Lines:

I love you Slim, we coulda been together, think about it,
You ruined it now, I hope you can't sleep and you dream about it,
And when you dream I hope you can't sleep and you scream about it,
I hope your conscious eats at you and you can't breath without me...



Who Knew? - This song is one of my favorite on the whole album. Mostly because its just nonsense and then a bunch of stuff about how people give him bullshit politically and through the public that they do themselves. Basically calling them hypocrites. All the lyrics are so true about how parents blame him for corrupting the nation yet they allow their children to do things that influences then more than Eminem ever did. And basically hes explaining how they use him as a scapegoat. Beats kinda wack though. 8/10

Favorite Lines:

I'll burn your fuckin house down and circle around,
And hit the hydrants so you can't put your burning furniture out...

I see these three little kids up in the front row,
Screamin GO with their 17 year old "uncle,"
I'm like "Guidance," Ain't they got the same moms and dads,
Who got mad when i asked if they like violence?

I don't got that bad of a mouth do i?
Fuck, shit, ass, bitch, cunt, shibby da doo woop...

Who woulda thought?
Slim Shady would be soemthin that you shoulda bought?
That woulda made you get a gun and shoot at a cop,
I just said it... I ain't know if you'd do it or not...



The Way I Am - Personally... I don't like this song all that much. The lyrics are deep and true. It just doesn't appeal to me all that much. He does own that beat though, he does kill that shit...Kinda going in the same direction as "Who Know" except not clownin and being very serious. And how the public look at him as something that he is really not. About how aggravating everything is. I understand where hes coming from and it is real easy to see where hes coming from. I'm sure you all understand too. Good song... but 7/10

Favorite Lines:

The why, the who, what, when and where, and the how?
Till I'm grabbin my hair till i'm tearin it out...

All of this controverzy circles me,
And it seems like the media immediately points a finger at me,
So I point on back at them, no the the index, the pinky,
Or the ring or the thumb, if the one you put up,
When you don't give a fuck, and you won't just put up,
With the bullshit they pull, cause they full of shit too,
When a dudes gettin bullied and shoots up ya school,
And they blame it on Marilyn, and the herion,
Where were the parents? Now look wheres it at....



The Real Slim Shady - Oh God... I honestly hate this song with a passion... Beat is gay... Lyrics are not very good either... Some of them are but I'm not really impressed with this song. Well I'm exagerating... The lyrics aren't THAT bad.. But nothing very groundbreaking for Eminem. Just one of the singles for teenie boppers to listen to... 6/10

Favorite Lines:

I'm like a headtrip to listen to.. cause I'm only givin you,
Things you joke about with ya friends inside ya livingroom,
Only difference is I got the balls to say it, in front ya'll,
And I don't gotta be false or sugar coated at all...

Sometimes I wanna get on t.v. and just let loose,
But can't, but its cool for Tom Green to hump a dead moose,
My bum is on your lips, my bum is on your lips,
And if I'm lucky you might just give it a little kiss,
And thats the message that we deliver to little kids,
And expect them not to know what a womans clitoris is...



Remember Me? - One of the hottest songs on the album. RBX has a kinda wack verse but Sticky Fingaz makes up for it... S.F.'s verse is siiiiickk... And then Eminem comes in with one of the dopest verses on the album... I love this song with a passion... SF was on some sick shit though... haha... I don't know what else to say about this except the beat was dope too... 9.5/10

Favorite Lines:

I'm the illest nigga ever, i told you,
I get more pussy than them dike bitches total!-S.F.

The entire Eminem verse...



I'm Back - Wooooooow...... Best song on the album... The beat is perfect for the lyrics. Lyrics are dope. Dope is the song. Song is dope. Haha... But forreal... This is mostly more nonsense, and some stuff about how hes a beast, and threats, and joking around, he is really a genius, no lie.. 10/10

Favorite Lines:

The entire first verse...
The entire second verse...
The entire last verse....
THAT DOPE



Marshall Mather - Third favorite on the album... This song is like sayin how things have changed since hes become famous... And in the first verse he says how alot of the industry is all about bein flashy and boy bands being wack a fuck. Pretty much just what happened to being real? He disses Insane Clown Posse too... Pretty much owns everything they have ever said in a few bars. Overall a good song... Beat suits the lyrics. 8.5/10

Favorite Lines:

And then to top it off I walk to the newstand,
And buy this little cheap ass magizine with a food stamp,
Skip to the last page, flip right past,
And what do I see? A picture of my big white ass,
Ok, let me give you mother fuckers some help,
Uh here... DOUBLE XL! DOUBLE XL!
Now your magizine shouldn't have so much trouble to sell,
Ah fuck it, i'll even buy a couple myself....



Drug Ballad - Second favorite on the album... Yeah, its very dope... NAme oft he song explains the topic of the song.. Flowed so god damn good, he ryhmes like crazy on this... 9.5/10

Favorite Lines:

The whole song is my favorite



Amityville - Beat is dope... Em is dope... Bizzarre is not... Haha, aside from Bizzarre being on this song its great. Topic is just craziness... You know how Em is... Well this is just reppin his shit basically... lol, dope song though... 8.5/10

Favorite Lines:

That's why the city is filled with a bunch of fuckin idiots still,
That's why the first motherfucker poppin some shit he gets killed,
That's why we don't call it Detroit, we call it Amityville,
You can get capped after just havin a cavity filled,
Ahahahaha, that's why we're crowned the murder capital still,
This ain't Detroit, this is motherfuckin Hamburger Hill!
We don't do drivebys, we park in front of houses and shoot,
and when the police come we fuckin shoot it out with them too!
That's the mentality here (here) that's the reality here,
Did I just hear somebody say they wanna challenge me here?
While I'm holdin a pistol with this many calibres here?
Got some registration and just made this shit valid this year?


Bitch Please - Ehhhh, I hate Snoop Dogg... West coast style best I'm sorta feelin it. Dre does pretty decent on the beat. I would have much rather have just Eminem on this or someone else from D-12... Like I said, I hate Snoop so no need to mention his verse. Em has a nice little intro, its funny... Hes pretty much mocking a guy who was talking shit about him and sayin that nothings gonna change how he raps... In my opinion thats what hes sayin... Nate Dogg makes it even more doper.. is doper a word? 7.5/10

Favorite Lines:

So when you see me, dressin up like a nerd on TV
or heard the CD usin the fag word so freely
it's just me being me, here want me to tone it down?
Suck my fuckin dick, you faggot, You happy now?



Kim - Song about killing his wife. Very graphic... And personally, I loved this song and when I'm pissed at my girl I listen to it 10/10.. Hands down...

Favorite Lines:

WHOLE SONG BIIIIITTTCCCHHHH



Under the Influence - Alright song... Beat is decent... Only a few decent verses... Showing some of D-12's potentiol though... But since its an Eminem album review i'll talk about his verse. It was different, more nonsense like alot of these songs on the album... Basically saying he doesn't give a fuck 7.5/10

Favorite Lines:

I light a candle and place it up on the mantle
Grab a knife at the blade and stab you with the fuckin handle
So when you find yourself wrapped up in the blinds, hurtin
Bitch it's too late, Cause once you're hung from the drapes, it's curtains...



Criminal - "Alot of people ask me, stupid fuckin questions. Alot of people think that... What I say on a record or what I talk about on a record. That I'm actually gonna do it, or that I believe in it. Or If I say that I wanna kill somebody that I'm actually gonna do it or I believe in it. Well shit... if you believe that, then i'll kill you, you know why? Cause ima CRIMINAL!" Intro to the song bascially explains the song. Beat.... eehhhhhh, not feelin it... Lyrics decent though. Talks about gays too much though. Gets repititive... 8/10

Favorite Lines:

Windows tinted on my ride when I drive in it,
So when I rob a bank, run out and just dive in it,
So I'll be disguised in it,
And if anybody identifies the guy in it,
I'll hide for five minutes,
Come back, shoot the eyewitness,
Fire at the private eye hired to pry in my business...


Overall - 117/140 If I added correctly.... Not reviewing the kids... one reason and one reason only... I'm lazy...


This has been a OneStep Review

I personally like the "infinite" album the best. He hasn't used wordplay like that since... But I'd say MM album is my next favorite from him.
