Rating metrics:
Outliers can be removed when calculating a mean average to dampen the effects of ratings outside the normal distribution. This figure is provided as the trimmed mean. A high standard deviation can be legitimate, but can sometimes indicate 'gaming' is occurring. Consider a simplified example* of an item receiving ratings of 100, 50, & 0. The mean average rating would be 50. However, ratings of 55, 50 & 45 could also result in the same average. The second average might be more trusted because there is more consensus around a particular rating (a lower deviation).
(*In practice, some albums can have several thousand ratings)
This album is rated in the top 4% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 77.1/100, a mean average of 74.6/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 77.2/100. The standard deviation for this album is 19.8.

Um marco definitivo no rap.
Raunchy but enjoyable classic

There's a really good 35-minute album hiding amongst all the skits.
This is the Sgt.Pepper of rap albums. It changed rap forever and is my favorite rap album ever. Probably the best. I think this is highly under rated. His word play, rhyme patterns, and creativity is beyond anything made up to this point. This album is better than Marshal Mathers LP. Best song is Still Don’t Give a F, Bad Meets Evil, My Name Is, and Just Don’t Give a F
A lot of narrative lyricism here, and quite the good Beats. Eminem came over at his debut showing all he got for the scene.

Before Missy Elliott’s pre-recorded hype mans there were Eminem’s theatrical background noises. Horrorcore? Comedycore if you ask me; the guy has humor.
The beats are awful though, even Dr. Dre’s.

This comment is beneath your viewing threshold.

IMO i think this is better than MMLP, because this one is about his life, and what life did to him.
Gets a lot of love because of its shock value and Eminem bursting on the scene. A white rapper that could actually flow and rhyme with skill brought everybody together to name him rap king.
The fact is this is pretty silly goofy stuff. What he writes about is trivial and his vocal delivery throughout has this high whiny quality he eventually leaves behind in subsequent releases.
Can't deny what he can rhyme and how he times the delivery. But the topics are so stupid here that it can only really be labeled as a fun party album. It just doesn't go as deep enough as better rap albums regardless of skin color

When this first came out I thought it was for people with a low IQ. I'm starting to appreciate it a bit more, but it's still very juvenile.
His rap style is captivating, that nobody can deny.

A lot of hard work happens in the background to keep BEA running, and it's especially difficult to do this when we can't pay our hosting fees :(
