Rap isn't music to start with. I think anyone that can't make music and talks over a drum beat (study music theory, this isn't music) is too STUPID to be a legitimate role model for your child. Studies show rock and classical take far higher IQs to understand. I just don't see why you'd let your kid listen to intellectually inferior GARBAGE! I was very upset to read the headline " 'Art' at it's darkest" when art takes creativity and brainpower to make. Eminem is a mindless idiot with nothing better to do with his waste of a life than write sexist illiterate rants...

This is eminems 2nd studio album and this album is very different to the first album for 1 big reason . his relationship with Kim . The song kim is about muurdering her . the whole album is just a Violent album and i like it

i don't feel like typin a whole lot so it's a good cd -15 caution

this is a really good album... eminem is an exceptionally talented rapper (not to mention he's REALLY hot) and the marshall mathers LP is one of his best. i'm not sure it's right for kids my age, unless you don't mind him saying f*ck and all that other stuff every 5 seconds and explicit descriptions of violence (the song "kim" especially. it was a song about him murdering his wife with a whole lot of screaming) and drugs (the song "drug ballad" was completely self-centered on his past drug addiction) and sex (he raps about homosexuals and all other random stuff having to do with sex). his songs are hard to understand if you're younger than 13 i would say. and i really doubt many parents will approve of this. but anyway, over all i love his music and i have all his albums, so i guess it's ok.
