The Profile

Eminem (Marshall Bruce Mathers III) is an American rapper from Detroit known for technically complex rhyming, provocative and often satirical lyrics, and major mainstream success.

Publicly known: he is a Detroit-based American rapper; he has released albums including The Slim Shady LP, The Marshall Mathers LP, The Eminem Show, Encore, Relapse, Recovery, and The Marshall Mathers LP 2; he is also known as Slim Shady; he founded Shady Records; and his song “Lose Yourself” (from the film “8 Mile”) won the Academy Award for Best Original Song.

Across these reviews, Eminem is framed as a technically elite rapper with sharp irony, controversy, and strong songcraft. Early albums (The Slim Shady LP, The Marshall Mathers LP, The Eminem Show) are repeatedly treated as milestones. Later works split listeners: Encore and Recovery draw both praise and complaints about repetition, pop hooks, and weaker beats. Relapse is described as a major comeback with renewed lyricism and Dr. Dre’s old-school production. Standout tracks named again and again include “Stan,” “The Way I Am,” “Without Me,” “Mockingbird,” and “Sing For The Moment.”
