After more than a decade in the game, Eminem endures as one of the most popular celebrities. The world's most successful rapper continues to break records in the modern era, recently reinventing himself after a drug overdose to hold his own against viral sensations like Lady Gaga & Justin Bieber. Controversy is one quality that Marshall Mathers III has never failed to deliver in spades. From his fledgling rhymes with New Jacks & D-12 through to Billboard chart-busting epics like ' My Name Is', ' The Way I Am' & ' Stan', his body of recorded work has been an exercise in lyrical genius, satirical wit & enjoyably gratuitous offensiveness.

This is the definitive critical study of the man dubbed by Newsweek as "the most compelling figure in all of pop music:" it's a quest for the visceral, troubled raison d'etre of Eminem.
