The Source - Eminem Album Ratings?

Postby EminemBase » Nov 6th, '10, 00:29

I can't recall ever reading or hearing about mic ratings they gave Em. Aside from him mentioning it in his diss "The Sauce".

Of course it would hardly be fair given the bias at the time, but under new-management didn't they re-rate a lot. I checked out all the five mic albums and I'm surprised The Marshall Mathers LP wasn't there.

Does anyone know the ratings they gave for each Em album out of interest?

I'd like to know as well :y:

I do believe when the source was under new owners they re-rated some albums and did give mmlp 5 mics, tho I could be wrong, I believe they did to a few other albums as well.

I think Sslp had something like 3,5 mics, and mmlp 2 because they were beefing, or something like that, but i'm not sure so don't yell at me if i'm wrong :coffee:

The source gave mmlp 2.5 stars and there was an uproar so a while later they rerated it to 4

DId they give the Slim Shady EP a 2? Cause he was rapping about that in As The World turns and that's the only album they could have ranked then. Cause I don't think they did Infinite.

They gave The Marshall Mathers LP a fucking 2.5? lmfao. Man, that's absurd.

Shows how corrupt and fucked up by Benzino they were at one point. Insane that such a big magazine could get done over by one retarded little man.

I think he was just saying how difficult it is to get higher than a 2 unless you're Jay-Z or whatever the reference was later in The Sauce or whatever.


He said
Outsiders baby and we're suein the courts
Cause were dope as fuck but only got a two in the source

He's obviously talking about himself, did they rate an outsiders album a 2? :zipped:

That As The World Turns line was just a joke, I think.

The Source raved over the SSEP on that Unsigned Hype article.

I really wanna see the original Source review for his first 2 albums. Just love to see how they could possible justify giving SSLP and MMLP such low ratings.

yeah but back then The Source was the "Rap Bible". they helped a lot of rappers build their street cred by rating their albums or writing an article about some certain rappers. then Benzino came :n:
