Moments in Timelessness

The Marshall Mathers LP (25th Anniversary) Album ∙ Hip-Hop/Rap ∙ 2025 Eminem Getting famous must’ve felt good, but you have to imagine Eminem took special pleasure when  The Marshall Mathers LP  got called out in the US Senate not long after its release in 2000: “He talks about murdering and raping his mother.
