Death of Slim Shady (7/26/24)

The triune personality of Marshall Mathers, Slim Shady, and Eminem has been controversial since his first album. The shock value and willingness to say the most vulgar thing, often mixed with honest observation, along with his unique talent to rhyme, propelled Marshall to the status of a global cultural symbol. Twenty years ago, his attacks on Bush were justified though his music overall was considered indecent, and conservatives wanted him cancelled. Now the other side of the political spectrum, of which Marshall is part of himself, wishes to cancel Slim Shady for his vulgarity and offensiveness - hence the new album name. Conservatives still find his new songs 'Antichrist' and 'Evil' to be offensives. Separating politics from art, it is also obvious that like all performs the benefits of controversy are a win-win. Sometimes it's just satire. That's the point.
