| | *In the track ''Blow Us All Away'', the duel between Philip Hamilton and George Eacker is portrayed as happening before the election of 1800. This is incorrect, as the duel happened on November 24, 1801. In addition, the track has Eacker fire on the count of 7, like a dishonorable man. This is wrong, as both men refused to fire for over a minute before Eacker shot Philip. | | *In the track ''Blow Us All Away'', the duel between Philip Hamilton and George Eacker is portrayed as happening before the election of 1800.

| | + | ''Hamilton'' is almost entirely historically accurate, helping to bring history to life, and is the story of an illegitimate child rising above the conditions he was born into become one of the Founding Fathers of the United States. ''Hamilton'' is the story of hard work, loyalty, and persistence. ''Hamilton'' also appreciates a variety of musical genres, and does them all justice, leading to a greater appreciation for the styles of music shown. ''Hamilton'' also brushes over the more-than-probable [[Homosexuality|relationship]] between [[John Laurens]] and Hamilton himself. |
