Curtain Call – The Hits – EminemView More By Eminem Our ReviewCurtain Call summarizes a career that reveled equally in outrageous insults, incisive commentary, and raw autobiography. Eminem first commanded the spotlight in 1999 with “My Name Is,” a track whose tongue-twisting irreverence still makes for the best introduction to the artist. If “My Name Is” established Eminem as the impish, unstable jester, the breakout single “Stan” brought a level of fame that threatened to overtake his persona, and his art. And while “Lose Yourself,” “Like Toy Soldiers,” and “Mockingbird” showed new levels of complexity, by 2005 Slim Shady was showing signs of wear. The songs recorded specifically for this collection —“FACK,” and “When I’m Gone”— show Em reprising old ideas to lesser effect, although the self-produced “Shake That” is a worthy reminder of how much he learned from Dr. Dre. Few rappers had as much to say, and as many modes of talking, as Eminem and because his most compelling and challenging songs are album cuts, Curtain Call can’t completely reveal the breadth of the man’s career. Nonetheless, this collection captures the essential qualities with which he carved his niche in the rap world and upturned the entire music industry.. Customer ReviewsThe Best of the Best (5 stars)How do you ever put together the best songs by easily the best rapper ever (if not best single artist, or even possibly the best, artist or band, of all time)? I don't know, and I don't think we will ever figure it out. But dang, Eminem and Dr. Dre came increadibly close to it, better than anyone else could have done. This is the perfect CD for any rap lover. It is complete, from top to bottom. Starting off with a short and comical intro whe The Best Rap of the Best Rapper (5 stars) I don't have enough fingers on my hands to count the number of ways and times that Eminem has shaken up the world. On a lyrical, personal, and message-based level, no one has or probably ever will top him. Now that he is finally leaving, a new bar is set in the world of hip hop. Support the greatest rap icon of our generation by buying this CD. For all the years you've given us, Shady, thanks. Eminem Is Back (5 stars) First of all, this CD is tremendous because it has all of Em's hits. The only disadvantage is that I already have all the songs (except When I'm Gone, Shake That, Fack, and Stan Live). Also, The edited takes out "FACK" and I want as much of Eminem that I can get. "Shake That" also doesn't have enough of Slim, even though it's still awesome. If you're looking for some new Eminem songs you probably don't have, try these (th BiographyBorn: October 17, 1972 in St. Joseph, MOGenre: Hip Hop/Rap Years Active: '90s, '00s, '10s To call Eminem hip-hop’s Elvis is correct to a degree, but it’s largely inaccurate. Certainly, Eminem was the first white rapper since the Beastie Boys to garner both sales and critical respect, but his impact exceeded this confining distinction. On sheer verbal skills, Eminem was one of the greatest MCs of his generation — rapid, fluid, dexterous, and unpredictable, as capable of pulling off long-form narrative as he was delivering a withering aside — and thanks to his mentor Dr. Dre,...
