Dec 15, 2017Nothing but a shadow of his former self. Straight garbage. You would think that with the leading single "Walk on Water" addressing how he struggles to live up to his own name and past, that maybe he would pull it out the bag and give an album that longstanding fans deserve. Nope, just the same pop-ballad trash that has been accredited to him the past couple years.

Dec 15, 2017Best album since the Eminem Show gets better after multiple listens!! This is a different eminem and shows he's matured as marshall mathers the man and eminem the artist GOAT!
-
Jan 4, 2018Maybe I put a lot of expectation on this Eminem album. He did not sound unique and with unique sounds as he always brought. Songs with dubious production and with known samples, it sounded generic and not very authentic. There are some good tracks in your album like river and remind me, but they are by far, unoriginal. Sad
-
Dec 20, 2017It's ok. I could do without the cringy lines Marshall raps every now and then, but almost every hip hop album today has some cringe (whether people like to admit it or not).
-
Jan 22, 2020This is actually a good album. Some people expect Eminem to be X, other people expect him to be Y, and other people expect him to be Z, and they always have an excuse to criticize him and not let him be the undoubtedly greatest again. The truth is that he's the greatest, either if you want to accept it or not.

Nov 4, 2018If this songs: "River (feat.Ed Sheeran), Bad Husband (feat. X Ambassadors) and Need Me (feat. P!nk) wasn't on the album, it would be a 9 for me.
This album is one of those that every listening it gets better and emotional. "Arose", " In Your Head" and "Framed" are my favourite. -
Mar 27, 2020This album is underrated and overhated. Yes, there are couple bad songs in this album, like Chloraseptic's very sloppy flow or Believe's average lyrics, the album overall is quite solid. The best songs on this album would have to be Walk On Water, Castle, and Arose

Jan 24, 2021I dont think this album is perfect, but it's definitely not as bad as many people have made it out to be. The only real song on here i find uninteresting is Untouchable mostly due to Em's delivery, other than that, every other song is perfectly fine. Sure, they aren't his best songs, but they're still good songs.
-
Apr 4, 2021Sure, it's music, but not to me. So dumb and has heaps of dumb strewn about. To put it in a way easier to understand it's trash and is sick to the bone.

Dec 20, 2017What do you get when you take the most skilled rapper of all time and have him rap over beats and songs that are mediocre and just not very good? You get something like this album. He needs better songs, it's that simple. The skill and lyricism and all of that are A-1 as always.. but the songs aren't anything I'd like to listen to. With the exception of Framed.

Dec 19, 2017This is one of Eminem’s best album’s to date. It has both the playful side of Slim Shady and the thoughtful and mature side of Marshall Mathers. With a very interesting blend of modern and classic beats. Definitely a great album, been listening to it on repeat since it came out!
-
Jan 8, 2018I'm not a big fan of Eminem,but I bought all his albums and Revival is the worst album. Bad rhymes,bad text. Everything is bad in this album.
-
Feb 4, 2021God damn is this **** Like M&M has lost his ability to impress or create a decent output.
-
Dec 15, 2017This album has a lot of enjoyable songs, like Castle,Arose and Framed,but not that good production on some songs and sometimes very dumb lyrics are the reason this is only a 7. Overall,a OK album.

Dec 15, 2017Surely not Marshall's best but this project is undoubtedly solid, the wide variety of styles works as a compilation of his 20-year career, having 90's, 2000's, and 2010 Eminem in there. Overall with a much mature tone, as anticipated. Well crafted, quality album.
-
Jun 3, 2018Calling this an Eminem album would be an insult. As a long time fan and listener it just sounds like Marshall needs to retire.
-
Dec 18, 2017Very good album, could argue it has been the best album since the Eminem show, all songs are catchy and many have been produced greatly. worst song is the song with pink.It has been very badly promoted and he should fire Rosenburg and get a new marketing team. overall very good album.

Dec 15, 201799% of Eminem albums are underappreciated when they first come out. Outside of The Eminem Show, I think every Eminem album has received scathing initial reviews, which later proved to be too hasty. I love Framed, Believe, Arose, Castle, Tragic Endings, Remind Me, and hell even the Ed Sheeran feature made for a decent tune. People will come around, just wait.
-
Dec 16, 2017Great album.
There is something for everyone on this record.
So not everyone wonna like every song on it but you can't deny that some of the tracks are lit.
Good lyrics and overall a solid storytelling and beats. -

-
Dec 16, 2017Chega de sons de guitarra e bateria, o que aconteceu com as batidas fortes e rimas perfeitas?!
Esse albúm só mostra que o Marketing que o Eminem fez com "Campaign Speech" e aquele "freestyle", teve coragem para lançar The Marshall Mathers Lp2, porque não teria para lançar, The Eminem Show 2? -

Dec 15, 2017It's that kinda album that takes time and couple listens to grow on you , definitely not his best but indeed a good album, couple of production problems and couple of meh and bad songs other than that it's great

Dec 15, 2017i love this album, its not his best work but it come's pretty damn close! Revival is the perfect combination of rap,pop and somethime's even rock. the real slim shady is definitely back!
-
Dec 15, 2017This is the best album I've heard this year. The lyrics are great and both rhymes and flows are amazing. All those who don't like the album don't know anything about hip hop.

Dec 15, 2017The album is faaaaaaar away from being the best Eminem album. It's an okay album, wasn't impressive but it works sometimes. Pretty average album that could be better.
-
Dec 15, 2017o álbum é bom do começo ao fim e quem não gostou é porque não ouviu direito e não soube apreciar esta obra de arte que vai do rap ao rock ao pop e ainda conta com várias participações ícones

Dec 16, 2017I never seen an community such stupid that right now, this album is literally one of the most authentic, honest and good album of Eminem, the perfect mixed between old and New Eminem's style.
-

-
Dec 16, 2017This is the best album he's made since The Eminem Show. It has a great mix of all of his different styles while at the same time making the album feel very well put together by having every song flow very well between each other. 10/10
-
Dec 16, 2017I like the lyrics and production on some songs like Believe, Offended, Framed and River, but on others the are very dull and dumb. Not like his other albums, but this is quite good.
-
Dec 18, 2017Still listening but anyone giving this a 0 or 10 just dumb. There are some lines that should of not made it and should of been some ill production from guys like Alchemist, Preemo, Madlib, Statik, ApolloBrown and guys like this but it's still a solid B-
-
Jun 14, 2018This is a horrible Pop-album with 90% cheesy popsongs featuring cheesy popstars. Nothing for Eminem-fans, only made for radio-listeners and teenage-girly-girls. It is so sad. Worst Eminem Album ever. It is really really bad. It is like "love the way you lie" an whole album long lmao.
-
Dec 29, 2017All these dumbass "reviewers" saying the album is wack. Either closeted trump supporters or people that have listened to it once and consider it "reviewed". You know what the saying is.. Rappers rap and critics.., well they aren't relevant any more.
-
Dec 20, 2017Well i mmlp2 is decent besides this , wich is really really bad , wasnt expecting revival to have 2-3 good tracks , i mean comparing it to mmlp1 or sslp this is pure ****

Dec 19, 2017Lyrically em still got it, it's got every aspect of eminem in this album. The slim shady alter ego is present in songs like framed, heat, you got marshal in songs like bad husband, castle, and eminem in tracks like walk on water, and believe. It's a good album overall except you don't like the direction of is production, too much of rock arena kind of beats.
-
Dec 19, 2017This album is a lot of fun, and I'm glad I bought it on launch day. So far my favorite songs are "offended", "framed", "castle" and "believe".
I'm surprised the critics are giving it mixed reviews. I'm having a lot of fun listening to it! -
Dec 24, 2017The album was released with such hype. The sequel to his two other average albums, Relapse and Recovery see Eminem approaching a clear tumble down the ranks. Despite still being one of the most recognised figures in music it doesn't seem to be his prime in this day and age.
-
Dec 25, 2017Best album since the Eminem Show gets better after multiple listens!! This is a different eminem and shows he's matured as marshall mathers the man and eminem the artist GOAT!
-
Dec 19, 2017Realy good....best rapper ever! All haters are pissed and now they are rating low!
-
Dec 19, 2017No artist with a 20 year old career can do what Em can do. His lyricism, flow and message is on point. This album really grows on you. Don't sleep on it.
-
Dec 20, 2017This is the best eminem album in years.This is the best album since relapse.The beats,flow and all things are great. But i think the album needs dr.dre's production. Rick rubin is okay.but i love dre. this album have very different versions of eminem. Arose is the best track in my opinion.

Dec 21, 2017Best album since the Eminem Show. Tank you Marshall, you incredible and the best
-
Jul 6, 2018This album is a generally mixed one in my opinion. With tracks such as "River" and "Offended" where Eminem shows off his lyrical talent and with tracks such as "Heat" it's garbage. For me, it's a mixed rating.

Dec 19, 2017Absolute **** garbage, and believe me when im saying that it's really bad, this is WAY worse than encore, relapse and recovery, i hope eminem will not make another album ever again, he's just bad now

Dec 17, 2017I don't know what people were expecting from this album but more I listen to it the better it gets.. I NEVER pay for albums but with the quality of this one, I had to buy it. It met my expectations. I assume the better you are people don't appreciate you and take the good albums for granted. 10/10 RAP GOD IS BACK!!

Dec 15, 2017Absolute uninspired garbage. Eminem is trying to be something he is not and its quite sad. I think its time this washed up has been hypocrite hangs it up.
-
Dec 15, 2017Solid album and get's better with every listen. Was the first Em album I didn't initially click with but once I took a second listen I loved it. As he has a track for everyone the initial listen can be overwhelming but its a grower of an album.
-
Dec 15, 2017Querido theeminemshowfã,
Revival não foi feita pra você. Nunca vai ser pra você. Eu não espero que você entenda o quão emocional, poderoso e marcante ele é. Eu literalmente não espero que você ache o melhor album do Eminem. Eu não espero que a sua opinião concorde com a minha, REVIVAL É RESISTÊNCIA -
Dec 16, 2017Great comeback, especially castle and arose, amazing closing songs, only thing missing is a Ken Kaniff skit, would loved to hear Ken on the album. Amazing.
-
Dec 16, 2017The album contains a lot of high-points and some pretty average tracks. IMO the highs makes up for the lows. The album is packed with a bunch of nice punchlines and wordplay, and in true Eminem fashion it also contains some very graphic and gut wrenching imagery.
-
Dec 18, 2017This album is FIRE!! Because I lit it on fire and threw it in the trash!!
I used to like Eminem, but now he is so angry - he sounds terrible. Attacking Trump is a bad idea, so say goodbye to your career Em. You forget that half the nation voted for him. KEEP POLITICS OUT OF MUSIC. -
Dec 16, 2017I was in utter shock at how horrible this album was. Wtf happened to the eminem that we all knew and loved? I just still can't process the atrocity that this trash was. Eminem pandering? What the hell has the world come to...
-
Dec 16, 2017Absolutely terrible album. There isn't one song on here that I can really listen to and say is good. Couple of manageable songs, and the rest is just loud noise. Absolutely disappointed in Eminem. Worst album of his career, and one of the worst of 2017. Shame.

Jan 9, 2018It's bad. I had to delete it from my spotify library. His messaging is mind-boggling and the tracks are sup-par.
-
Dec 16, 2017I dont get all those people who expect Em to rap like he did 20y ago. Are you the same person you were 20y ago?
To be fair there are 1 or 2 songs that drag the score down but overall its a pretty good LP.
As for the features to me personally Khelani outperformed all the others.
Castle and arose, what a way to end. -
Dec 16, 2017Eminem is back and better than ever with his fair share of comedy in songs like Offended and heartfelt messages in songs like Arose and Bad Husband. This album has a hint of each one of his former albums in it, so it is perfect for Eminem fans. It reaches out into other fans with pop features from Alicia Keys and Ed Sheeran as well

Dec 16, 2017One of the worst albums i have ever let my ears listen to... Trash lyrics, Trash political views, Trash production... Lost his touch should of retired years ago when he actually had a legacy which he has now dismantled into trash.
The Album Is TRASH -
Dec 15, 2017Muito foda Álbum, olha que estava receoso, pois não tinha curtido a primeira musica. Enterrou os haters! Hahaha. O instrumental está muito bom, as participações está Super fodas! Alias, a fãbase do Trump deve está dando vermelho, Bebes chorões!

Dec 28, 2017Revival. Not a revival at all for Eminem. This album is straight up pointless.
-
Dec 19, 2017Not a bad album. Lots of people are criticizing it based on Eminem's actions, and not on the album itself. Most of the people here, I bet, didn't even listen to the record.
-
Dec 18, 2017Text required but I just want to leave a score. I have nothing impactful to say regarding this album.... Arh still need to add a few more words because apparently that was enough in the first place...

Jan 18, 2018At least a third of the tracks are songs I could do without. The other two-thirds show that whether you love or hate the modern day Marshall Mathers, he's still as relevant as he ever was.
