Eminem Gets Four Stars For Relapse From Rolling Stone Magazine

Rolling Stone has reviewed Eminem's much-anticipated album, Relapse and declares it a "more painful, honest and vital record than anyone could have expected at this late date, up there with The Eminem Show or maybe even better."

"There's a lot of hate on Relapse. Eminem hates himself for getting sober only slightly less than he hates himself for doing drugs in the first place. He hates himself for being famous, for hating his mom, for taking so long to make this album. (In one skit, his old nemesis Steve Berman taunts him, "You hide out in Detroit for almost five years while the music industry melts the f**k down? You know how many people lost their jobs because of your f**king vacation?") All that negative energy helps him fight the temptation to become comfortably numb. If you hate Em, he probably wouldn't blame you. But Relapse is reason to be glad he's still around."
