Reviews
Eminem: RelapseSome people grow up, and others just get older. Em may be closing in on 40, but his rhymes are more immature than ever. It's getting sad -- Flava Flav sad. [19 May 2009]

Eminem: The Marshall Mathers LPNo one is saying that Eminem’s vile language or violent imagery typifies the white race or even the young urban white male. In part this is a function of his own acerbic self-censure, which allows him a comedic, almost Woody-Allen-style cut-and-run [19 October 2000]Blogs
