Notes:
The Marshall Mathers LP is the third studio album by American rapper Eminem. It was released on May 23, 2000, by Aftermath Entertainment, Interscope Records, and Eminem's newly founded label, Shady Records in the United States, and on September 11, 2000, by Polydor Records in the United Kingdom. The album was produced mostly by Dr. Dre and Eminem, along with The 45 King, the Bass Brothers, and Mel-Man. Released a year after Eminem's breakout album The Slim Shady LP, the record features more introspective lyricism including the rapper's response to his sudden rise to fame and controversy surrounding his lyrics.
The album sold more than 1.78 million copies in the US in its first week alone, becoming the fastest-selling studio album by any solo artist in American music history. In 2001, the album won the Grammy Award for Best Rap Album and was nominated for Album of the Year. Eminem lost the latter to jazz-rock duo Steely Dan and their album Two Against Nature. The album was certified Diamond by the Recording Industry Association of America in March 2011 for shipping 10 million copies in the United States. By December 2016, the album had sold over 11 million copies in the United States and more than 32 million copies worldwide. A sequel to the album, The Marshall Mathers LP 2, was released on November 5, 2013.

Kind of disappointed that the packaging didn’t have something akin to a foldout poster that combined all the stuff In the CD booklet - would have been nice... oh well. The inner sleeves are pretty flimsy; one had the poly-line facing the wrong way and it fell apart when I took the record out.
As for the record, there were a number of snaps and crackles. I also ran into a couple skips on “Who Knew” that thankfully wasn’t anything Spin Clean couldn’t take of. It isn’t by any means a great-sounding album, lots of sibilance, but bass is tight.

Relatively good sounding record and is fun to listen to. A lot of hip hop vinyl records (especially reissues / represses) are just significantly overshadowed by their native digital version (e.g. the album 'Curtain Call') - not this one. The digital version may still be a tad bit better, however, it has a pretty quiet surface, nice sound staging / imaging and overall quality is decent, so the perfect go-to for listening to Em on vinyl.

Hey does this release have a Back to Black sticker?
Also mine doesn't include a download code.

Great reissue with excellent packaging. Would be awesome, if the insert had lyrics printed onto them, not only credits, but still great. Records have very heavy bass and are still nicely quiet.

No download or hype sticker. Everything is the same but the matrix/run out numbers are literally 1 character different instead of "1A, 1B, 1C, 1D" mine are "2A, 2B, 2C, 2D"
