Eminem
Eminem is the stage name
of Marshall Bruce Mathers III (born October 17,
1972), one of today's most
controversial and popular hip hop musicians.
He is perhaps best known for being one
of the few successful white rappers in the industry, not to mention one of the most
critically acclaimed. He is also infamous for the controversy surrounding many
of his lyrics, which are said by critics to be homophobic,
misogynistic
and excessively violent.
Early life
and career
Mathers was born in Saint Joseph, Missouri
and spent most of his childhood moving back and forth between Saint
Joseph and suburban Detroit, Michigan.
Interested in rap from a young age,
Mathers began performing as early as fourteen, later gaining some popularity
with a group, Soul Intent. His wife Kim gave birth to his daughter, Hailie
Jade, on 25 December
1995. In the same year, he
released his first independent album, named Infinite, following it up with The Slim Shady EP
in 1997.
He became famous in the hip-hop underground because of his distinctive,
cartoonish style and the fact that he is white (a rarity in all rap, especially
mainstream gangsta rap). Some people called him rap's "great white
hope".
It is said that Dr. Dre
found Eminem's demo on the garage floor of Jimmy Iovine,
the Interscope
label chief. Though this did not directly lead to a recording contract, once
Eminem won second place vs. Otherwize at the 1997
Rap Olympics MC battle,
Dr. Dre agreed to sign him.
Entering the
mainstream
Once he joined Interscope, Eminem
released The Slim Shady LP, which went on to be one
of the most popular records of the year, going triple platinum. With the
album's enormous popularity came controversy surrounding many of the album's
lyrics. In "97 Bonnie and Clyde",
Eminem describes a trip with his infant daughter, disposing of the bodies of
his wife, her lover and his son. Another song, "Guilty Conscience"
ends with Eminem and Dr. Dre encouraging a man to murder his wife and her lover.
The Marshall Mathers LP was released
in May 2000,
quickly selling 2 million copies. The album's first single, "The Real Slim
Shady", created some buzz by trash-talking celebrities and spilling
dubious gossip about them. In the song, Eminem claims, among other things, that
Christina Aguilera gave "head" (oral sex)
to Fred Durst
(of Limp Bizkit)
and Carson Daly
(of MTV's Total Request Live). In the third single,
"Stan" (which samples Dido's
"Thank You"), Eminem attempts to deal with his new fame status,
telling the story of a fan so obsessed with him that he winds up killing
himself and his pregnant girlfriend, mirroring one of the songs on The Slim
Shady LP.
Eminem's third major
album, The Eminem Show was released in summer 2002. It featured the
single "Without Me", an apparent sequel to "The Real Slim
Shady" in which he makes derogatory comments about boy bands, Moby, and Lynne Cheney,
among others.
On November 19th, 2003 new controversy
surrounded Eminem when a cassette tape was played during a press conference
held by The Source magazine. The 1988 cassette featured
a younger Mathers performing a freestyle rap
in which he made disparaging remarks about black women, calling them
"stupid" in comparison to white women. Mathers reportedly made the
recording after breaking up with his black girlfriend.
On December 8,
2003, the United States Secret Service admitted it
was "looking into" allegations that Mathers had threatened the President of the United States after the
unreleased song "We as Americans" leaked onto the Internet.
The lyrics in question: Fuck money/I don't rap for dead presidents/ I'd
rather see the president dead/ It's never been said, but I set precedents.
Then, in 2004, Eminem made the video
"My Band" with D12. The controversial song was the band's sarcastic
response to the media's frequent portrayal of D12 as Eminem's band, giving
little to no credit to its other members. The video contained various parodies,
including that of the Janet Jackson 'incident',
and of 50 Cent's
"In Da Club" video.
On October 12, 2004, a week after the release
of "Just Lose It," Eminem's first video and single off Encore,
Michael Jackson
called into the Los Angeles-based Steve Harvey radio show to report his
displeasure with the video, which parodies Jackson's child-molestation
accusations, his rhinoplasty, and an incident in which Jackson's hair caught on
fire while he was filming a Pepsi commercial in 1984. The lyrics to "Just
Lose It" also refer to Jackson's
troubles. In the video, Eminem also parodied Pee Wee Herman,
MC Hammer,
and a Blonde-Ambition-touring Madonna. Harvey himself declared, "Eminem has lost his
ghetto pass. We want the pass back."[1] ([ندعوك للتسجيل في المنتدى أو التعريف بنفسك لمعاينة هذا الرابط])
Black Entertainment Television was the
first channel to stop airing the video. MTV, however, announced it would
continue airing the video and "Just Lose It" became the number-one
requested video on Total Request Live for the week ending October 22. [2] ([ندعوك للتسجيل في المنتدى أو التعريف بنفسك لمعاينة هذا الرابط]) The Source magazine, through its CEO
Raymond "Benzino"
Scott, wanted not only the video pulled, but the song off the album, and a
public apology to Jackson
