My main musical preference being metal, this is a diverse surprise in my CD collection, but his gritty abrasiveness and the anger in his vocals and his fantastically intelligent lyrics, rhymed and structured so ingeniously how could I not be a fan?
A very extreme album, I don't always agree with what he says - especially concerning his views on women - but the venom with which he spits his lyrics and the ingenius rhyming never fails to inspire me and this is his hardest-hitting album, from opener Kill You the jaw-droppingly shocking Kim, this is near faultless.
Personal favourite, Marshall Mathers. Appealing to people of various musical tastes, as I mentioned previously, I'm predominately a metalhead, a refreshing change from ghetto talk and glamorising ending arguments with a gun, Eminem is very heartfelt and honest in his lyrics, nothing is sugarcoated: this is a man bearing his soul, love it or hate it, it's a must-hear experience.
