Product Description
Product Description
Eminem is currently the world's biggest and most controversial music star. He has been blasted for what many of his critics regards as overtly homophobic and misogynistic lyrics, and resented both for his record-breaking commercial success and being a white man in a black genre. But Eminem's sheer talent has transcended such condemnation and established him as the most important figure to come out of popular music since Kurt Cobain. Whatever You Say I Am - based on exclusive interviews with members of Eminem's family, key figures in the music business, sociologists and reviewers and featuring previously unpublished photographs - is the first book to reveal the man behind the controversy. Most crucially, Anthony Bozza's unprecedented access to Eminem himself makes him uniquely qualified to answer the big question - why does Eminem matter? The answer is found in Eminem's unlikely life story, in his extraordinary ascent to super-stardom and in an analysis of his music and lyrics. Whatever You Say I Am will keep Eminem's legions of fans riveted, and will enlighten his critics.

George Bush called him 'the most dangerous threat to American children since polio'. But Eminem's sheer talent has transcended such criticisms and established him as the most important figure to come out of popular music since Kurt Cobain.
WHATEVER YOU SAY I AM - featuring dozens of previously unpublished photographs and based on exclusive interviews with key figures in the music business, members of Eminem's family, sociologists and critics - is the first book to get to the heart of the man behind the controversy. Most crucially, Anthony Bozza has had an unprecedented level of access to Eminem himself and has found himself uniquely qualified to answer the big question - why does Eminem matter?
