does anyone consider the marshall mathers LP a classic?

i cannot sit through this entire album.
exactly, we all grew up. what was hot/ funny/ fresh on this album is no longer that.

that's the difference between a classic and a good record; classics are timeless. i played real slim shady all the time back then, i was in sixth gradeback then. i can barely listen to that track right now, the beat is so annoying.

give this record to a rebellious little teenager, he'll love it.
 
I'll consider it a classic, I haven't listen to it in a while but I know I'll enjoy it just as much.

Otherwise its a good album
Em went hard on Amityville. Especially the last verse where he's talkin' bout his hood.

The Marshall Mathers LP is the Grammy Award winningthird studio album by American rapper Eminem, released in 2000. Widely seen as hismagnum opus, the album sold over 1.76 million copies in its first week, earning aspot in the Guinness Book of World Records as thefastest-selling rap album ever.[sup][2][/sup] It has gone on to be certified Diamond by theRIAA in the United States,[sup][3][/sup][sup][4][/sup]and has sold over 19 million units worldwide.[sup][5][/sup]

Guinness Book of World Records???
Diamond??
19 mil worldwide??
Classic?? I would say so with those credentials...
 
I just picked up the MMLP last month during the Circuit City liquidation sales. And it's cool album, but nothing really crazy. Truthfully, I liked TheEminem Show better.

But "Criminal" is my %+%+.
