Eminem quickly gained popularity in 1999 with his major-label debut album, The Slim Shady LP, which won a Grammy Award for Best Rap Album. The following album, The Marshall Mathers LP, became the fastest-selling solo album in United States history.[2] It brought Eminem increased popularity, including his own record label, Shady Records, and brought his group project, D12, to mainstream recognition.

  • A Musical Color Line: the Problem of Race in White Rap Rhetoric
    DOCUMENT RESUME ED 463 517 CS 510 804 AUTHOR Riddles, Allison TITLE A Musical Color Line: The Problem of Race in White Rap Rhetoric. PUB DATE 2002-03-00 NOTE 8p.; Paper presented at the Annual Meeting of the Conference on College Composition and Communication (53rd, Chicago, IL, March 20-23, 2002). PUB TYPE Reports Descriptive (141) Speeches/Meeting Papers (150) EDRS PRICE MF01/PC01 Plus Postage. DESCRIPTORS *Cultural Context; *Discussion (Teaching Technique); *Freshman Composition; Higher Education; *Popular Music IDENTIFIERS Ohio University; *Rap Music; *Rhetorical Stance ABSTRACT An instructor of freshman composition at Ohio University always teaches a section on music in her courses because freshmen jump at the chance to discuss a part of their youth culture that they readily identify with. The problem, however, has been how to incorporate rap music successfully into these discussions with a classroom full of white students. A viable solution presented itself with the rise of white rappers like Eminem and Kid Rock. The appeal of rap music has always been the feelings of alienation presented in the unabashedly angry lyrics, and now that white rappers are expressing the same feelings of angst and rage as black rappers, a whole new fan base has been created. This paper discusses in detail some of the lyrics and attitudes of Kid Rock and Eminem. The paper states that rap has many ethnic groups represented, including Latinos, African Americans, and now Caucasians. It finds that students in the composition class, through extensive discussions on rap and race, recognized that being white is a specific ethnic identity instead of just the norm or the typical majority.

In August, Metallica Club members around the world were able to enter a lottery for a chance to purchase tickets to all the Fillmore shows at a cost of $19.81 for a four-pack of tickets to all of the shows. Single show tickets were $6. All four of the shows immediately sold out. Last week, Metallica welcomed these fans from around the globe to join them in the celebration where there were no repeats in the set lists for the four night stand, aside from the established show closer of “Seek & Destroy,” playing close to 80 different songs. Each night at the Fillmore was hosted by comedian Jim Breuer and opened by the Rebel Souls Brass Band performing Metallica songs. This was followed by fan club winners invited on stage to play “Crash Course Trivia” and “Name That Riff” games where they were able to win exclusive 30th anniversary prizes and memorabilia. Metallica also invited many special guests relevant to their 30 years to the stage to perform with them. The list of guests included Apocalyptica, Armored Saint, Geezer Butler, John Bush, Bif Byford, Jerry Cantrell, Nick “Animal” Culmer, Glenn Danzig, Death Angel, King Diamond, Diamond Head, Marianne Faithfull, Lloyd Grant, Rob Halford, Ray Haller, Pepper Keenan, Kid Rock, Laaz Rockit, John Marshall, Jim Martin, Mercyful Fate, Ron McGovney, Dave Mustaine, Jason Newsted, Ozzy Osbourne, Soul Rebels Brass Band, Lou Reed, Bob Rock, Gary Rossington, and Hugh Tanner.
