"The truth is you don't know what is going to happen tomorrow. Life is a crazy ride, and nothing is guaranteed." - Eminem
Eminem, (born Marshall Bruce Mathers III on October 17, 1972), is one of today's most popular and controversial rappers. Eminem's first album was entitled Infinite and was highly criticized. Before releasing the album, he had a lot of underground tracks that spanned multiple mixtapes. Eminem's early work involved rapping about mostly drugs and getting bullied. He was heavy into the underground freestyle circuit, competing and winning in many competitions.
In February of 1999 once he'd hit the mainstream he soon released The Slim Shady LP. The album sold 283,000 copies its first week. To date, the album has been certified 4x Platinum. In May 2000 he released The Marshall Mathers LP, and the first single released from it (The Real Slim Shady) was a huge hit. During the first week, it sold 1,760,049 copies, becoming the fastest-selling rap album in history, more than doubling the previous record held by Snoop Dogg's 1993 debut Doggystyle. Other singles from the album include The Way I Am and Stan.
In 2002 he released The Eminem Show, in 2004 Encore and in 2005 Curtain Call: The Hits. Eminem also has his own record label, Shady Records (a sublabel of Aftermath Records), 50 Cent is signed to his record label on a joint venture between Dr. Dre's Aftermath and Eminem's Shady Records.
