Marshall Bruce Mathers III is Eminem and his alter ego is slim shady. Eminem is at the top of the Rap game and the biggest in the hip hop industry. He has been listed and ranked as one of the greatest artists of all. He was declared The King of Hip Hop. Eminem’s puts his soul into his music; it comes from him and his views. Eminem goes to the studio and lets his feelings out in his music. Eminem 2013 album The Marshall Mathers LP2 is a continuation of one of his most known old albums The Marshall Mathers LP .The album LP2 debuted at number one on the US Billboard 200 and had the second highest album sales of 2013. As of March 23, 2014, the album has sold 2,017,000 copies. Eminem is often compared to other rappers like Jay-Z because of their lyrics but the difference is Eminem albums sell more and Eminem is hands down the best rapper alive or dead. Eminem has a reputation for dissing artists like singer Mariah Carey; he made a diss rap called “The Warning” to show her not to mess with the rap God. “The Warning” was one of the most memorable songs he made was because he put all Mariah and his own business out and didn’t even care. Another song of Eminem’s that was memorable was “Lose Yourself” on his album Encore. Encore was such an intense song pretty much describing how he has one chance to get it right and how you’re losing yourself in the music. In a 2013 article Jon Dolan wrote “The Marshall Mathers LP 2 is the kind of sequel that gets people shouting at the screen in disbelief before their seats are warmed up”. I would definitely agree with that whole statement, the album was amazing and had me and I am sure others hyped. Honestly, Eminem is worth my time and money, I support him and his music. I have his whole new album LP2 on my phone. His music is worth it and I think everyone should listen to music he speaks the truth no matter if you like him or not!
