Eminem is the best-selling musical artist of the 21st century. He
is also one of the most contentious and most complex artists of our
time. His verbal dexterity ranks him among the greatest technical
rappers ever. The content of his songs combines the grotesque and
the comical with the sincere and the profound, all told through the
sophisticated layering of multiple personae. However one finally
assesses his contribution to popular culture, there's no denying
his central place in it. This collection of essays gives his work
the critical attention it has long deserved. Drawing from history,
philosophy, sociology, musicology, and other fields, the writers
gathered here consider Eminem's place in Hip Hop, the intellectual
underpinnings of his work, and the roles of race, gender and
privilege in his career, among various other topics. This original
treatment will be appreciated by Eminem fans and cultural scholars
alike.
