He also talks about his family, "in the touching "Hailie's Song" and "Cleaning Out My Closet" about his mother (this is also one of the tracks from his movie '8 Mile') The addtional DVD is also great, because hidden at the end of most of the segments, there is an interveiw with Eminem and his feeling of fans, picking new victims, etc. The track listing is as follows:<BR>1. Curtains Up (skit)<BR>2. White America<BR>3. Buisness <BR>4. Cleaning Out My Closet <BR>5. Square Dance<BR>6. The Kiss (skit)<BR>7. Soldier.<BR>8. Say Goodbye to Hollywood<BR>9. Drips<BR>10. Without Me<BR>11. Paul Rosenberg (skit)<BR>12. Sing for the Moment<BR>13. Superman<BR>14. Hailie's Song<BR>15. Steve Berman (skit)<BR>16. When the Music Stops<BR>17. Say What You Say<BR>18. 'Till I Collapse<BR>19. My Dad's Gone Crazy (v. funny)<BR>20. Curtains Close (skit) OK CD from an ok rapper Man, from the reviews I been reading here, you'd think Eminem is one of the top 10 rappers out. But he isn't. Eminem is an okay rapper who keeps getting radio and video hits, and great record sales. That doesn't make him a great rapper. I'm not an Eminem basher, because I am a fan of his music, but he is clearly overrated. I can easily name 10 current rappers out who are obviously better than Slim Shady: Rakim, Scarface, Jay Z, Nas, DMX, Common, Snoop Dogg, Method Man, Kool G Rap, and Ghostface. Well, on to the CD. If you liked Em's last 2 CDs, then you'll probably enjoy this CD too. Its the same old, same old from Em; with a radio hit included (this time "Without Me", instead of "The Real Slim Shady" or "My Name Is"), a serious song to follow up the radio hit (this time "Cleanin' Out My Closest" instead of "The Way I Am"), and a couple songs out just to offend people ("White America", "Drips", and "Superman"). So if you did enjoyed Em's works up to this point, then this CD is worth buying. But for hip-hop fans like me, I was expecting a little more out of Em this time, maybe some new content for his lyrics, or some new different production, but I got neither. Em sticks his mom-bashing lyrics, and his Self produced and Dre produced tracks.... The Best Eminem CD To Date This album has it all...the regular Eminem ...talkin disses, Eminem singin, Dr Dre, D-12 and great lyrics. Ever since I have had this CD, it hasn't stoped playing. I personally think that this album is better than his previous 2 solo LP's, the D-12 album and his underground albums also. Below is my track rating (1-5):<BR>Curtains Up (Skit): 1 (very short intro)<BR>White America: 5 (expresses Eminem's surprise because of how people feel the same as he does)<BR>Business: 5 (Great song)<BR>Cleanin Out My Closet: 4<BR>Square Dance: 4.5<BR>The Kiss (Skit): 2<BR>Soldier: 5<BR>Say Goodbye To Hollywood: 4.5<BR>Drips: 3<BR>Without Me: 5 (the single, great, like his others)<BR>Paul Rosenberg (Skit): 1<BR>Sing For The Moment: 5<BR>Superman: 5<BR>Hailie's Song: 5++ (EMINEM SINGS!)<BR>Steve Berman (Skit): 1<BR>When The Music Stops: 5<BR>Say What You Say: 5<BR>Till I Collapse: 5<BR>My Dad's Gone Crazy: 5++ (features Hailie)<BR>Curtains Close (Skit): 1 *Limited Edition DVD contains a music video, Eminem's movie trailer, and concert excerpts.* Buy Eminem The Eminem Show at Amazon.com Buy posters at Allposters.comJamster - the latest ringtones for your phone! |
