...Im sure everybody knows who Eminem is. Whether youve heard his singles, his albums, or watched him on the big screen, he could possibly the most famous musician in North America. He has created a medium unlike any other, where a white emcee can be hardcore, tell stories, be humorous, and be a great, if not one of the greatest, wordsmiths and lyricists ever. He has been constantly overrated and underrated. No, Eminem is not the greatest rapper of ...
...2002, besides his underground EPs, Eminem has given us two albums to sink our teeth into. The humorous, funny, and creative Slim Shady LP, and the angry, lyrical, thought-provoking Marshall Mathers LP. In 2002, the white emcee made his glorious return to hip-hop with The Eminem Show. Even with the heavy bootlegging of the album, it still sold 10 million copies as of today, which is amazing. The Eminem Show is not a classic like his last album, the ... Read review

Advantages: Excellent lyrics, track diversity.
Disadvantages: See Review.

...previous three album releases, `The Eminem Show` has a much more vibrant front cover. I must just add before I move on that some people will argue that there were only two previous releases. For anyone that doesn't know, there was an album released in 1996 called `Infinite`. It was only released stateside and only sold in the region of 3750 copies so it has largely been forgotten about. In a nutshell, the three previous covers were very bleak and ...
...depicts Eminem and his daughter on a moonlit pier, and `Marshall Mathers LP` shows Eminem sat on the steps of his childhood home looking very much depressed. The cover of this album is a million miles away from that. It shows Eminem on a stage in a black suit, surrounded by a huge red theatre curtain. The brighter colours give out a more uplifting vibe than before and I think that this is Eminem showing a more upbeat approach about his life. At the ... Read review

Advantages: Fantastically produced album, some amazing songs

...is Eminem. About Eminem Eminem was born Marshall Bruce Mathers and before he made his face famous all over the world as the biggest selling white rapper, he used to be in a band called D12. It was while he was in this band, that he, along with the other band members created alter ego's for themselves. This is how Eminem was born, it actually comes from the fact that initials are MM.

...a few raised eyebrows. However, Eminem (Marshall, Slim, whatever) prospered where others had failed - he told it like it was, didn't give a flying f*ck who he rubbed up the wrong way, and made himself a reputation as the most controversial figure in post-millennium rap. His constant collaboration with one Dr Dre was undoubtedly the catalyst for his success, but that said, you've gotta go some to sell as many units as Em did, and all that in a mere ...
...in almost every direction, The Eminem Show is at times a disturbing listen, but one just as intriguing, if only to see a lyrical genius at his undeniable peak. Whilst there isn't the likes of 'Kim' (possibly one of the most controversial tracks ever put to disc), Eminem proceeds to attack everyone - from the media to other rappers, from a fan on the street to the parent of a broken home. Boy's got issues. An honest representation of both his thoughts ... Read review

...this album a miss. Eminem is a very famous white rapper, who was born in Detriot. His real name is Marshall Mathers III, after his father, Marshall Mathers II. He is also known as Slim Shady.

...followed by the album 'The Eminem Show', which had to be released a week earlier than planned, as it was available to download on the net. I'll start by telling you about the members of Eminem's family that appear on the album: * His Dad, Marshall Mathers II. Eminems Mum and Dad split up before he was born. * His Mum, Debbie. She is most famous for being rapped about on Eminem's records (more on that later). She clearly didn't like being rapped ... Read review
