Reviews
4 stars out of 5 - "...It has an answer to everything, filling every parking-spot in the towering multi-storey of ego with a triple-bluffmobile....No one else puts such a rocket under rap's self-consciousness or makes it so shocking...", 4 stars out of 5 - "...You might not like where he's dragging you, but there's no denying the style with which he does it...", 3 stars out of 5 - "...His disaffection sucks you in and the wholesale nihilism can still provoke shivers...", Included in Cmj's "Best of the Year" for 2000., 9 out of 10 - "...Real twisted...one long, disillusioned whine....It may be the white noise of America's Most Unwanted, but it also the product of a talent supremely Untouchable.", "...Musically, the album is a triumph....You can't deny the lyrics' searing honesty, and that's what makes him one of pop's compelling artists.", Included in Q's "50 Best Albums of 2000"., "...Should forever erase the notion that he is the Elvis Presley of hardcore hip hop. If anything, he's rap's Eric Clapton: a white boy who can hang with the best black talent based on sheer skill - enhancing the art form instead of stealing from it.", "...Indefensible and critic-proof, hypocritical and heartbreaking, unlistenable and undeniable; it's a disposable shock-rap session, and the first great pop record of the 21st century..." - Rating: A-, "The virtuosity of 'The Way I Am' gained Eminem access to an audience that believed that the better you were at your instrument, the better music you made.", 4 mics out of 5 - "...You wanna peep this LP, if not for the intense lyrics and witty punch lines, at least for the chance of witnessing one of the craziest MCs grow up right before ya ears.", Ranked #1 in Rolling Stone's Top 10 Albums of 2000 - "...His tortured conscience gives the album its complex emotional kick...", 4 stars out of 5 - "...He's more funny and much more scary....A car-crash record: loud, wild, dangerous, out of control, grotesque, unsettling. It's also impossible to pull your ears awat from.", Ranked #78 in Mojo's "100 Modern Classics" -- "The results were brutal, politically insane, loaded with pop hooks, and hysterically funny.", "...Even more abrasive and offensive....proving again that his imagery and storytelling abilities stand tall over most other rappers...", Ranked #7 in Nme's "Top 50 Albums of the Year"., Ranked #3 in Spin's "Top 20 Albums of the Year 2000" - "...What 'going too far' means: really, finally brought that psycho rude s*** home to the 'burbs....leaving more things unsettled than when he started."
