Kid friendly and positive themes

but i love eminem very much

such a great album, yet filled with profanity and other explicit stuff. The song "drips" disgusts me, while i love other song like "superman, "sing for the moment", "haile's song" and a bunch of others. I mean, even the skits are good. The worst song (not including skits) is probably "drips", because of un-talented "Obie Trice." But the other songs are lyricly amazing and in other ways also amazing. great abum, just quite explicit.

One of the best rap albums ever. Even though he cusses a lot and talks about not so good topics, it's still really good.

Em has improved so much! Its not dark and intense like encore but has a few songs for 'shock value' like drips. great album buy it. i love the songs like 'when the music stops.'

I'm a 13 year old kid who can't stand the music of the modern age. I prefer to listen to the classics, i wish that i was born in the 1960's, where music was good. I think that Slim has some talent, he can rhyme things that basically don't rhyme. I do not find the music age apropriate. Encourage your kids to listen to the Beatles, Turtles, Monkees, Led Zeppelin, The Doors, The Animals, Journey, etc. It will broaden their horizons and teach them that music is a beautiful thing, there is no use for all this explicit material that you see out today. Make them appreciate music. I apologize if i mispelt anything in this paragraph.

I'm not gonna say anything rude i love Eminem even though i'm like ten i even have a crush on the guy i don't really like Drips but i don't know if Fack is on there i do like Fack even though it is pretty Perverted.And Hailies song is great any way if he says something horrible it is his way of getting it out of his system like the song Kim or Bonnie and Clyde 97

You might want to listen to ''drips'' before you let your kid listen to it, if you can get through the whole song. Other songs are just fine. Sure you have the language and sexual behavior. However, It's the Slim Shady talking. Albums that have Eminem on the cover are better to start off with for anyone I think. If your child already into him don't make him/her stop listening to him now. If your child has only heard of him or listened to one of his songs on the radio and wants to get an album just know your child. Does he/she usually ''follow'' others or ''lead'' others? If one or the other suggest you tell them no to the Slim Shady albums or any that came out over four years ago. Your child should be okay listening to an album like this one The Eminem Show if he/she isn't a follower nor a leader. Yet a child who makes many of their own choices but doesn't make/try to get others to follow their ways. It's up to you. If your child is under 18. Also remember they can always wait a couple years when they mature and understand the songs. Parents' if you let your child listen to him go over his background and make sure they understand at least the direct things he's saying ( usually inapporite ). As well as the indirect topics ( usually better than direct ). Last make sure they know that even if he's 40 now. Some songs they hear were when he was younger and just wanted to rhyme words like a lot of rappers. I'm a fan, personally.

Out of all this CD's I think it is Eminem's Best, most of the songs are really good. There is a lot of swearing, but its nothing a 15+ hasnt heard. Overall, there is only one innapproprite song "Drips", which caused me to put an iffy.
