Rolling Stone Magazine on Eminem's new album, The Eminem Show:

"With The Eminem Show, Eminem has created the best rap-rock album in history. It's a hybrid theory of Jay-Z's hyper-confident The Blueprint, Staind's pained Dysfunction, and Tupac's anti-hero masterpiece All Eyez On Me. The Eminem Show has the self-assurance of an artist being at the top of his game and the game, the understanding that the music world is hanging on his every word, and the willingness to shock even the most jaded ears."
