Memory Lane: Eminem - The Marshall Mathers LP


15 years ago today, Eminem released the greatest solo album of his career, The Marshall Mathers LP. I remember the first time hearing this record and being shocked and amazed by the subject matter and clever wordplay (remember Stan or Kim?). With the recent success of Dr. Dre's Chronic 2001, released just 6 months before this album, the dynamic duo were able to continue their magic and create another classic. Definitely one of my top 10 rap albums of all time.

But it all traces back to the dude George Clinton. Check out a very informative and candid interview with Dr. Funkenstein and the Redbull Music Academy.
