The Friday Canon: EMINEMINEMINEM

[katstevens.livejournal.com]

Billions of albums sold, 9 Grammys won, 1 Oscar-winning film soundtrack penned, prescription drugs taken by the jarful. I doubt anyone on this community can say they've never heard an Eminem song. But which ones (if any) are the pick of the (bleached) crop? You get SIX ticks to denote your Eminemineminem love. I've included collaborations for completeness.

I am surprised so few are ticking The Way I Am, which may well be my favourite Eminem.

This was very hard to get down to 6 - I'd have liked 9 or 10 ticks.

Agreed.

I will need to reevaluate "Guilty Conscience" and "The Way I Am" when I get home, given that they were my last 2 unticks and I haven't heard either in years.
