Roeper said: "8 Mile probably won't win converts to rap, but it should thrill Eminem fans".

The clean version of the 8 Mile soundtrack removes most of the strong language, sexual and violent content. The only word left uncensored on the soundtrack, is the word "ass" (except on "Places to Go" by 50 Cent, where the word "ass" is used twice, but the word was only censored once). No other words are uncensored on the clean version of "8 Mile".
