"Eminem’s upending of the mainstream, particularly through the release of The Marshall Mathers LP, earned him countless enemies. From religious groups to government officials, he faced no shortage of protesters, but while Middle America – as well as occupants of other suburban areas around the world – hated him, their kids loved him, his music and his rebellious nature. You can love him or loathe him, but the fact we’re still talking about The Marshall Mathers LP 20 years later speaks to its undeniable impact."
