Editorial Review:
How Eminem was able to assemble so many credible emcees of today and yesteryear (Jay-Z, Rakim) to endorse his Holly'hood coming-out party is anyone's guess. What is clear, however, is that (dare we say it) the Shady One might be growing up. On "Lose Yourself" Em abandons his callous, hardcore posturing to write thoughtful hood-centric coming-of-age lyrics that would make Melle Mel proud. On "Battle," Gang Starr's Guru tears through a sick beat from rap's most prolific producer, DJ Premier. Sadly, Nas wastes more valuable studio time dissing Jay-Z (ho hum) on "You Wanna Be Me." Interestingly, once you get past the living-legend love-in and peep the skills from Em's lesser-known Shady Records roster of underground wordsmiths, such as 50 Cent ("Wanksta") or Obie Trice ("Adrenaline Rush"), you might urge Em to consider giving up his thespian pursuits to become a full-time record executive. Not even the baffling inclusion of Macy Gray's humdrum "Time of Your Life" can sink this project. --Dalton Higgins
8 Mile (Clean) Reviews:
Editing is good!! 
2009-07-30 - I brought the edited and explicit version for all eminem albums; Slim Shady LP to Relapse. Just like the edited "Eminem Show", every bad word is removed including the song "Adrenaline Rush" which had a lot of swearing in it. Clean version is suitable for kids.
Better with superman,but still good!
2006-01-12 - Here is my review. I would have gaven this album 5 stars if it had superman. They should have put superman on this album cause the superman video is on the dvd. I dont care cause I have the Eminem show which has superman. And I have the 8 mile sound track. I also have Encore, and curtain call the hits so it dosent mater to me, I have seen all of eminems music videos except superman. Somebody needs to tell what that videos like. So just to let you know, for the people that dont know and think its on the 8 mile soundtrack its not. It is on The eminem show. Well thats my review.

A place in your collection, but not in history 
2004-10-13 - Eminem has some unique poetic tricks in his writing that are even more surprising than the words and topics he employs. But this mix includes artists who are good but much more comforting (such Macy Gray, still underrated as a vocalist) and others are much less comforting and much less talented (such as 50 cent, vastly overrated as artist of any kind).
In toto, this "soundtrack" (itself a misnomer, since it includes many trakcs simply "inspired by" the movie, rather than from it) includes a fabulous first track, and then fifteen tracks that mire in mediocrcity. They're fine as background for cubicle work, but don't mark any unique or interesting turn in cultural history.
Yeah, we've had enough of Shady. But are cameo collections all that will follow?
