"The edited version is a great choice for people under 13 or anybody offended by his content. Amazon.com made a mistake. Track 16 is only "Kim" on the explicit version. The song is different and it's called "The Kids". It's much less offensive than "Kim".Anyway, my fav songs are "Stan", "Marshall Mathers", and "Under the Influence", but all the songs are excellent!"
Eminem's Got It Here

"Okay, I really didn't like rap until I heard The Real Slim Shady at a school dance. I thought it was pretty cool so I bought the edited version of the CD. IT ROX! I couldn't believe how something so controversial could be so expemplary. If anyone actually listens to the CD, they would know the Eminem doesn't really mean anything in his rapping. Most people don't like rap and just read the lyrics, but its not about the lyrics. I mean most of the time, you can't even understand the lyrics at first! This is a good CD for people who have overprotective parents. IT ROX!"

"Whoa. This CD is awesome. I've listened to both the edited and unedited versions and the only difference I found was that bad words are edited and The Kids was on the edited and Kim was on the unedited. They are both great songs. I am 12 years old and have the edite version of the CD. I would recommend the edited for kids my age though."
I wish i could give it 20 stars!

"I LOVE this cd! it is the BOMB! i would suggest it to teenagers 12 and up. If you like dr. dre, nelly, kid rock, and dmx, you will LOVE The Marshall Mathers LP! Of course i listen to the lyrics, but i dont go doin' crazy stuff, and, parents, i'm 13! The reason i reccomended it for kids over 12 is that i don't think little kids should hear all that until they are old enough to understand what to and not to say!"
