"The Real Slim Shady" won the 2001 Grammy Award for Best Rap Solo Performance. THE MARSHALL MATHERS LP was nominated for the 2001 Grammy Award for Album Of The Year.A Caucasian rapper from Detroit, a Dr. Dre disciple with bright blonde hair--by rights Eminem should be the biggest cheeseball in the hip-hop universe. However, his debut, THE SLIM SHADY LP, contained clever rhymes and even the occasional innovation. His sophomore effort, THE MARSHALL MATHERS LP, is about as subtle as a Detroit Devil's Night and proves Eminem's no fluke, but instead a most unlikely rap visionary. While his horror/shock rap can be repetitive, it's more often hilarious, as he and his Slim Shady character skewer anyone and everyone, notably the MTV-based world that surrounded him after the success of his first record. Few can come up with rhymes as consistently clever as this Motor City madman, and lines which will be repeated as long as this CD is spun. The most startling moment has to be "Stan," featuring haunting, ethereal guest vocals from Dido; an incongruously sublime track, it spins an o henry-meets-'60s teenage-death-song tale of obsessed fan worship gone terribly wrong.
| | Editorial reviews | 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.
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.
...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.
...Even more abrasive and offensive....proving again that his imagery and storytelling abilities stand tall over most other rappers...
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.
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...

...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.

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...

Ranked #1 in Rolling Stone's Top 10 Albums of 2000 - ...His tortured conscience gives the album its complex emotional kick...
Rolling Stone (01/04/2001)
...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-
Entertainment Weekly (06/02/2000)
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.
NME (06/03/2000)
3 stars out of 5 - ...[His] disaffection sucks you in and the wholesale nihilism can still provoke shivers...
