REVIEW
The
Marshall Mathers LP reviewed by Wall of
Sound,
7-10-00
You don't have to feel
sympathy for the devilish Detroit rapper Eminem
to appreciate his hurt. In fact, that would be
missing the point, given that the popular,
potty-mouthed MC's self-stated mission is to
anger the whole world, mostly by converting his
pain into pathological rage that's then passed
off as some sort of self-parody. |

Welcome to the summer of
Shady. Where a very blond, white-trash homeboy
from Detroit named Marshall becomes the king of
hip-hop. It's like something out of science
fiction. |

Alas, poor Eminem. Who knew
that under the misanthropic and misogynistic
exterior of this Motor City street urchin lurked
the wounded heart of a mayhem-driven martyr? |

RATING: Hookt 96 By 144
When writing about Marshall "Eminem"
Mathers, you have to approach the piece with the
same
hand-on-dick-flip-the-world-the-bird-I-don't-give-a-fuck-mentality
he did with his 1999 debut album, The Slim Shady
LP. |
The
Best Of Rap City reviewed by SonicNet, 10-13-99
An early version of this
BET-sanctioned compilation contained 2Pac's
"Changes" and Jay-Z's "Hard Knock
Life." The official release replaces those
songs with Gang Starr featuring Total's
"Discipline," Beenie Man's "Tell
Me (Remix)" and Sporty Thieves'
"Cheapskate," instead of their
brilliant TLC rip "No Pigeons." |
