Em Gets 4 Mics

[LIL GUY]

ILL BE VERY SUPRISED IF PAID THE COST GETS 4 MICS.  3 OR 3.5 AT THE MOST.

He satisfies the "pop" (read: "white") audience with an aerosmith rmake (sing for the moement).
Am I the only person who thinks this comment is a load of bullshit. First to act like Aerosmith is just some pop act and has no black fans is outright idiocy. And the fact that Run-DMC did the same thing with Walk this Way makes there completely nullifies there arguement. Also as far as i'm concerned Sing for a Moment is a better song.

No, you're not. I totally feel ya. And Jome: You're so right! If Jay-Z or Nas were on the album, it would get 5.

Well, when they had their 150th issue they corrected some of their reviews. (Because of public opinion & common knowledge. I can't believe for ex. Doggystyle wasn't "a classic" before.) Maybe when they hit issue #300 they'll give TES (and others) 5.

Goddamn eastcoast dickrydin' cum-guzzlin' assholes.

I was pissed when I read that about Aerosmith satisfying the "white" audience.  That's bullshit!!!  Who the fuck cares where the sample came from if it's tight???  

I thought it honestly deserved 4.5 mics, but since Stillmatic and Blueprint got 5, then Eminem Show should have gotten 5 hands down.  And I think his production is hella tight throughout the album.  Fuck The Source.

they didnt bash jayz for using a doors sample(then again the doors are one of best groups ever)...but im sure if jayz wouldve sampled that same aerosmith beat the source would ride his dick.....

[Now_Im_Not_Banned]

LMAO@the source saying "sing for the moment" and "white America" would be ignored by Hip Hop Heads...



They are so fuckin retarded, I sweare man...Those two tracks were the 2 greatest lyrical efforts on the album...FUCK THA SOURCE!

[Twentytwofifty]

They're East Coast Dick Riderz, wachu expect.......

Yall go get Murder Dog, They tha only ones that Keep It Real......XXL can be coo sometimes too......

Murder Dog...? That's just silly.  I think I remember reading a year end issue for 1999 and saw 2001 getting 40th best album of the year, if you guys get upset at Source reviews don't read Murder Dog

Anyways, I find it odd that she said that "he hasn't done anything new (see Redman's Whut The Album)" and the TES needs to be more original and show growth.

Well if you don't own Whut The Album, it's nothing like TES.  WTA is raw Redman over funky Erick Sermon production with George Clinton samples.  It's a dope album but is not similar to TES at all, and I wonder how the Exective Editor could say that.  Cause she seriously couldn't have even listened to WTA.  

No growth?  That's exactly what this albums shows.

I'm also suprised he got the lead review.  The Marshall Mathers LP was something like the fourth review in that issue even with all that hype around it and The Slim Shady LP didn't even get reviewed.

Should of got 4.5.  The Source is the best mag regardless.

Em's album should get at least 4.5 mics! It's a fab album and in my opinion the best this year!
Peace...
