Eminem: love him or hate him? It's no surprise that Slim Shady evokes such conflicted feelings--he's easy to champion and disparage alike, and this new D12 album doesn't make the decision any easier. Though hip-hop's pale wonder is now joined by his five, conspicuously black Detroit peers, this still sounds and feels like a Marshall Mathers project. The biting disses of MTV pop figures ("Ain't Nuttin' But Music")--still there. The dark journeys into faux psychosis ("American Psycho," "Devils Night")--still there. The big middle finger at conservatives, conformists, and critics ("That's How," "Purple Pills," "S*** Can Happen")--still there. And throw in Dr. Dre's production alongside Denaun Porter's lumbering funk tracks and Em's own beats, and this is basically the third Eminem album. Besides, he's still the most interesting of the six D12 members to listen to--slicker lyrics, better flow, and just a more engaging personality. Which, of course, is telling the listener to go to hell. Bottom line: If you liked the last two Eminem albums, this one won't disappoint. And if you hated the last two, at least you have the other D12 members to distract your attention. --Oliver Wang

5.0 out of 5 stars Eminem and D-12 are here to stay whether you like it or not, June 20, 2001

Mr. Slim Shady did not get my attention until I heard "Guilty Conscience" w/Dr. Dre. He earned my respect with "If I Get Locked Up" from Funkmaster Flex's and Big Kap's "The Tunnel" CD. Although he may rap about controversional lyrics and sick diversions, Eminem has plenty of skill to back whatever he says up. On the "Marshall Mathers LP", which is still a CD to remember almost 11 months after it was released, Eminem left all people who said he couldn't do it again in disbelief. With songs like "Stan" w/Dido, "The Way I Am", "I'm Back" and "Kill You", Eminem showed that he was a force to be reckoned with and his album sales are more than 7 times platinum and rising. With "Devil's Night", it seems like Eminem is trying to get the same respect for D-12 that he already has for himself. Mission: Accomplished. "Devil's Night" has to be one of the best releases in 2001. All of the members of D-12 go blow to blow with Eminem on the whole CD. Production is mainly handled by Eminem and Dr. Dre lends his assistance to 3 tracks as well. Now I will admit while D-12 has skills and I can handle everything they have to say, some of the subject matter will be displeasing to some people. What you have to understand is that this what D-12 is all about. If Eminem has been able to maintain his success by staying true to what he does, so should D-12. The 1st single speaks of what I am talking about: "Purple Pills" is an excellent, well crafted song by D-12 but some people will find the lyrics very offensive. I am able to separate what they are talking about and the actual skill of putting the song together so the material is not offensive to me. The whole CD is based on what I am talking about but the skill level is definitely up to par: The Dr. Dre produced "Fight Music", "Devil's Night", "Pistol, Pistol" and "Pimp Like Me" are also examples of this but the tracks are tight and very well put together. Take the "Marshall Mathers LP" and add D-12 to each song and that's how this CD sounds. I will have to tell you that Bizarre is going to make some people sick just by himself. However, he is a very skilled MC and he will probably get a solo contract after this CD. Whether you like Eminem or not, this is a good CD to have in your collection. "Devil's Night" will definitely put D-12 on the map.

5.0 out of 5 stars original sounding cd in a sea of sound alike cds, June 23, 2001

This review is from: Devil's Night (Audio CD)

finally a rap cd that not only has impressive beats but equally impressive lyrics to match it seems a lot of rap these days is just one rich star after another bragging about how maany bentleys or rolls he has or how much cristal he has ingested this album is a 360 degree turnaround from that which i give much praise to d-12 and eminem
