A stunning book featuring 90+ original 1999 photos and 2 1999 interviews.

The ideal present for Eminem fans, a lively authentic look at his state of mind and energy in 1999 as he turned superstar, disclosed in his words.

Eminem speaks openly about:

Why he is not a role model

Why he shocks and pisses people off

Drugs

White Rappers

Underground Hip-Hop

Critics

American society and ignorance

Kim

“Just The Two of Us”

The day he dyed his hair blonde and got a stomach tattoo

Much more

With Proof at his side, Eminem holds nothing back. An unfiltered testament of his raw perspective and extraordinary window into the world - and intimate life - of the gifted prodigy. Illustrated by original, unseen photographs and ephemera, 1999 quotes by Violent J of ICP and Dr. Dre, and exclusive 2001 interview with D12.

It is challenging to comprehend the moral sense that has ensued over the past twenty years. No person, place or thing is unaffected by time. Life is life. The ravages of generations exceptionally cruel to Eminem. Colossal achievements cleaved by immediate family, the death of his best friend, mental illness and drug addiction. The strength and fortitude to endure the stuff of legend.

In an exclusive May 2001 interview with D12, the Dirty Dozen explained the anarchy of their lyrical assault and provided essential behind the scenes facts that concerned the drama with Limp Bizkit and the secret hidden track, ”Girls.”

The continuing influence of Eminem on two generations of Hip-Hop, Rap, and Pop Culture is incalculable. The three interviews featured here present an intimate, unfiltered, raw and direct connection with him at the exact point as his ascension to stardom.

Others may have spoken with and interviewed Eminem during this crucial period; however, this questioning brought deep-seated, definite reactions.

The interviews featured in this book were previously released as The Real Eminem: Broke City Trash Rapper.
