Eminem Show

Any lingering doubts as to the depth of Eminem's skills or his potential for raw yet compelling honesty are dispelled on The Eminem Show's first track. Armed with a quicksilver flow and a thundering rhythm track (the record was exec produced by longtime mentor and partner Dr. Dre), "White America" finds Eminem ferociously mauling the hand that feeds him, lambasting his critics, the industry, and the racism that, in many ways, helped make Marshall Mathers more than just another rapper. "Let's do the math," Em sneers, "If I was black I would have sold half/ I could be one of your kids/ Little Eric looks just like this." After the bombast of The Marshall Mathers LP and Eminem's well-noted use of sexual epithets, this kind of material is made more controversial because it actually rings true. From a brutal retort to his long-estranged and equally troubled mother ("Cleaning Out My Closets") to a surprisingly tender ode to his child ("Hailie's Song"), Eminem examines his life, loves, arrests, addictions, failures, and successes with surprising insight, making this a funk-drenched hip-hop confessional well worth the hype. --Amy Linden

Third Strike - at his Critics.......2007-06-26

Em's flow remains strong here. His writing is maybe a bit less creative in this one, with him paying more attention to the tunes, but still good. The raps definitely hold interest, which is why I gave this one 5 stars. Good raps:

White America - Em muses on his success any mabye it having a lot to do with him being a white rapper and so accessbile to more fans.

Business - very bouncy and catchy rhythm. Dr. Dre is featured. A fun tune to hop along with.

Cleanin Out my Closet - a big blast at his mom

Soldier - different sound to it, fast and nervous, edgy like something's about to go down and the rapper is jonesing

Drips - slow, kinda languid rap about STD

Sing for the Moment - mixes Em's raps with the Aerosmith tune. Works well. Em says you gotta reach out and grab your chance

When the Music Stops - excellent fast and chaotic tune featuring a lot of guest rappers. Looks at how a lot of rappers have let the craziness of their music seep over into their lives and the line is blurred, with tragic consequences in the real world.

My Dad's Gone Crazy - excellent tune about Em and his experiences growing up/coming up and how important his music is. He states in this tune that he'll never stifle himself for the critics. Lots of anger in this one, well directed into energy.

Call me crazy..........2007-07-18

but this just might be my favorite eminem album! It took me a while to really get into this one,but now that i have, i love this cd!

It seems to be his most mature and personal cd to date. The bonus dvd that comes with it is awesome too. It has live footage and an episode from the slim shady show,which is hilarious by the way.

This cd is still pissed off kind of like the marshall mathers lp,but this one is a little mature and personal. This is in response to all the bad publicity and bad responses to his first 2 major label cds,espicially the marshall mathers lp.I can honestly say that i actually like about every track on this cd,just like the slim shady lp. On the marshall mathers lp i liked them all except for 2,one of the 2 b/c snoop dog was on it and i can stand him. Eminem takes his anger out on kinds of issues and topics on here,you really just have to spin over and over to get a lot of it.

My favorite tracks would have to be,White America,Business,Soldier,Say Goodbye To Hollywood,Drips,Without Me,Sing Foe Tha Moment,Superman,When The Music Stops and 'Till I Collapse! Even though all the tracks are good and well written and well produced. Like i said earlier, it took me a few years to really get into this one, b/c at first i liked his 3 better,but now this one is probably my favorite one now!
If you like Eminem at all, get into this one, this one rules!

Awesome.......2005-02-14

The Eminem Show CD is Awesome. I love all the songs on this CD. I would like to say that Eminem is the bomb, and all of his songs should be #1 cuz he is the best there ever is.

I love you EMINEM.

Solid Album- There are some ignorant reviewrs.......2004-08-12

Some of the reviews of this album are pathetic. It is a great solid album with chart toping songs and it gives you an in depth view in the life of Marshal Mathers. But it bothers me when a person who obviously knows nothing of music, writes a bogus review. I realy found it intresting where one review says, " songs like soldier, and the kiss have nothing to do with eminem." If maybe the reviewer knew anything about the artist before even writting the review, he would have known that eminem's X-Wife Kim cheated on him witch obviously relates to the song. And the song soldier was a way for him to spill out his frustration on lawyers, judges, and IGNORANT PEOPLE.
Overall the album was solid, though it seemed to be to comercail for eminem. The Marshal Mathers LP was a higher time for eminem with more feeling and thought was put into the album.The Eminem show is a great album to own.

the eminem what?.......2004-05-12

Frankly i have no idea what's gotten into me. Yes, no doubt about the fact that I like eminem and his music. But this album, lets just say,if you are a hip-hop music fan, you'll enjoy this one. If you are not, stay clear of this cd and everything will be fine. First single "White America" is a major pain(the fact that he screams in the song) but its not the best. Actually, this is my first time listening to an album by eminem so,Lets put it in simpler words: this album is ok but not the best one he put up so far. If you ask me, black rappers'
music is better.Eminem can't rap, he sounds like a wannabe rapper,exaggerating this cd with tons of swear words. Basically I do not understand the songs square dance, soldier,drips and the kiss. Relates nothing about him.The rest of the songs are ok eg:business, claening out my closet, say goodbye to hollywood,superman, hailie's song blah blah blah. I think eminem can come up with something better.All's not lost though, some songs are bubblin.But the others should rest in a time capsule. Not bad. But im not recommending it.

best album everrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!.......2004-04-09

its class. its by far the best eminem album he made the 2nd best is marshall matters lp,slim shady lp,infinte and then 8 mile sound track.on the 8 mile sound track the only good song is loose yourself.i am the greatist eminem fan ever.......50 cent is no good!

EMINEM INFINITE (1996) Eminem ProductGroup: Music Binding: Audio CD Similar Items: The Slim Shady LP Devil's Night 8 Mile Encore (Deluxe Edition) The Marshall Mathers LP ASIN: B000N0SYZU

Product Description

Infinite represents Eminem the way he was in his younger years: a young man in search of true love as the song « Searchin» fully reveals it. A young man facing a lot of financial problems and trying to feed his family. When you have been yourself through similar difficulties, you will be able to relate to songs like « Its ok ». 313 gives us the taste of a « sweet emcee from the 313 ». « Maxine » also belongs to the well written songs of the album. Marshalls sincerity all over Infinite is so touching. But it seems that it wasnt enough. Despite the huge efforts, he had put into his album, people reproached him to sound like Nas. The public wanted something else, something biting that Eminem gave them with the Slim Shady EP and the Slim Shady LP. Although people wont unanimously agree on Infinite, Id advice any true Eminem fan to check the album if he hasnt done it yet- at least for the great lyrics written by Marshall Mathers.

Customer Reviews:

Realy good lyrics........2007-06-01

But the production blends in with typical early to mid 90s music as far as beats go. As far as lyrics, i believe Em is on Nas' Illmatic level back then. The only reason i gave this a low rating is becaause D-12 pops up and ruins every track the talk on. D-12 should not be allowed to rap except for Bizarre.

The Essence of Hip-Hop - - D-E-S-E-R-V-E-S E-V-E-R-Y S-T-A-R.......2007-03-28

I'd like to start off my review by saying that i consider Marshall Mathers part of an elite though very select few of pure, conscious l-y-r-c-i-s-t-s. These include Eyedea, Gift of Gab (1/2 of Blackalicious), Jeru tha Damaja, AZ, Big L, Big Pun, Common Sense (in his early days), KRS-One, CL Smooth, Black Thought, all iS mineS, one.be.lo. and also the whole Hieroglyphics empire.

That said, the overall vibe of this album has an undeniable old school quality to it, even though it was released in '96. The beats are infectious and sound fresh even to this day, and eminem actually had something to say. He was hungry, relied on clever wordplay and worthwhile stories that not only reflected his life at the time, but also portrayed every day happenings that he had probably grown accustomed to seeing.

"Maxine" is about how a prostitute will lie & leave you with disease if you're dumb enough to believe she's clean. Some nice production here.

"Never 2 Far" portrays eminems ambitions to make money in the rap industry. The difference between him and other rappers is that he comes correct with clever wordplay and flow, and each verse eases nicely into the chorus, to the point where you don't even realize his technique of merging the two.

"Searchin" continues this idea except this time he's pouring out emotions as well as his lust for a lost love. Again undeniably sick wordplay and flow, with a guest appearance from a friend.

"Infinite", perhaps the strongest track on the album is also one of the sickest instances of pure lyrical destruction that i've ever heard. Not a lyric is wasted throughout, and every line effortlessly connects to the next. ("My rhymin' skills got you climbin' hills, i travel through your mind into your spine like siren drills."). This is hip-hop that actually requires thinking to understand everything he's saying, and when you do it's a real eye opener.

"Open Mic" flosses a sick beat and funny intro, and eminem rips the beat to sh*t. It's a toss up between this and "Infinite" for best track on the album. ("You couldn't flip shit playin' in toilets with a spatula.")

"It's Ok" must be heard to believe. His style is so natural you'd think he was somehow cheating. Again the wordplay is unmatched by today's "standards" of what a hip-hop song should entail.

A inevitable gripe with this album that most heads will notice is Eminems questionable approach to riding the beat. At times he certainly seems off if you listen closely, yet he also seems right on because of the way he flows in and out of the chorus, with an uncanny ear for the smallest nuances of the beat.

Bottom line: it's shocking that few people have heard this album. This was undoubtedly a different side of Eminem, when few people knew about him and his rage hadn't come out yet. If you're a hip-hop head you will probably appreciate this album for what it is, Beats, Rhymes and Storytelling ability.

The rhymes absolutely blow my mind on this album........2007-02-26

A Lot of Eminem fans don't like this album because it's none of that Slim Shady stuff.If you sit down and study this album properly and study what it's about you will like this album. On this CD Eminem talks about his struggles and how he feels he can make it, and tracks like it's okay and Never 2 Far explain that. However Eminem displays some dope skillz on this album with perfect lyrical flow over laidback beats and some hot punchlines to get you hyped up and those skillz are displayed on tracks like Infinite, 313, Tonite and open mic. My favourite tracks on this album are Never 2 Far, which talks about how confident you have to be in order to make it, no matter if you're broke or not it is still possible to be very successful in the future, Searchin is another good tune on the album about how he finally found someone to be in a good relationship with, Backstabber a funny but very lyrical song about a backstabber that eveyone should stay away from, Jealeasy woes is another one talking about how he feels his girlfriend left him because shes jealous of him especially that he spends all his money buying her fancy gifts and she keeps giving them to him acting like she don't like the gifts. So there you go if your an Eminem fan or a fan of real Hip Hop then download this album since it isn't in stores.

His best album. I seriously mean that........2007-02-24

When we turn up a track to hear Eminem "Slim Shady", we hear someone who seem bitter and sometimes outraged. Some of Eminem's songs from the Slim Shady album and on are good but in my opinion he seems to be whining a lot. Wait, wait don't get me wrong he can flow well and he has some good lyrics there is no doubt about that but "Infinite" offers something different. I listen to his tracks on this album and I feel he is being completely real. All this was before his fame and fortune... The introductory track, Infinite, will blow your socks off! His flows on this track are better than anything else I have heard by him and shows off his raw talent. On the song "It's OK" he talks about his struggles with having child, financial problems, issues with family etc. Normally he would complain about all of it and talk about putting his "baby mama in a hatchback and latched it" (Quote from the "Last Hit" from High & Mighty). Instead, he says everything is going to be OK and all right. He knows he will make it through... It is too bad the public passed up this album. In '96 they wanted something different from Eminem and that is when he developed the nemesis "Slim Shady". His character on this album is completely different and in my opinion "real". Characters on 8 Mile actually are real... He has Dj Butterfingers cutting the beats on this album along with the rest of 313. I talk to some Eminem fans and they say they know all of his songs and albums. I ask them about this one and they have no clue what I am talking about. I am telling you, if you are a true fan pick up this album and get it fast because you can't find this in stores... This is going to be a one-of-a-kind album by Eminem and he will never make anything like this again.

Found My Copy in a used record shop.......2007-02-21

I found my copy in a used record shop. I have all of Eminem's albums except this one and I knew I'd never find it again, so I went ahead and bought it. the best songs are Tonite and Jealousy Woes II.
