ARTIST BACKGROUND

About Eminem

Eminem emerged from Detroit's rap scene with a rapid delivery, densely constructed rhymes and the provocative alter ego Slim Shady. The Slim Shady LP and The Marshall Mathers LP brought that character into songs that mixed dark humor with personal and social conflict. Stan used a fictional fan's correspondence as narrative, while Lose Yourself connected his music with the film 8 Mile. Later recordings, including Recovery, continued his exploration of personal struggle through sharply articulated, often confrontational performances.
