With never before seen photos and interviews and dedicated to the
memory of Big Proof, the founder of D12 and Eminem, this book will
take you deep into the heart of the Detroit Ghetto with Eminem long
before D12 and the Aftermath with D12. With over 100 million albums
sold worldwide and Academy Awards, Grammy Awards, American Music
Awards, ASCAP Music Awards, Billboard Music Awards, Gold and
Platinum Albums, under his belt, Eminem is one of the best-selling
rap artists ever. Discovered by legendary producer Dr Dre, Eminem
was signed to Dre's Aftermath Entertainment Record Label in 1999
and he brought along his D12 rap group members and other Detroit
rappers, all who would go on to have their own record deals and
sell Gold and Platinum Albums. EMINEM and the Detroit Rap Scene:
White Kid in a Black Music World chapters include: "The Detroit Hip
Hop Scene"; "The Dirty Dozen - The Story Behind the D12 Group";
"Eminem's Artistic Evolution"; "White Kid in a Black Music World."
Eminem and the Detroit Rap Scene: White Kid in a Black Music World
was written by Isabelle Esling a graduate of the University of
Metz, France, where she studied Liberal Arts and Languages. Ms.
Esling has been teaching foreign languages in public and private
schools as a German and French teacher. Ms. Esling's challenge was
to get to the essence of the Detroit ghetto and its rappers, so
that she could find the real character of Marshall Mathers III.
That meant interviewing, sometimes arguing, perhaps disagreeing and
spending countless hours with the people who Eminem grew up with
and encountered on his way to the undisputed throne of rap.
Isabelle Esling was born in Saint Avold, a little French town near
the German border. She currently resides in London, England and can
