埃米纳姆是有史以来最畅销的音乐艺术家之一,销售额估计超过2.2亿张。 他是2000年代美国最畅销的音乐艺术家,并且Billboard称他为“十年艺术家(Artist of the Decade)(2000–2009)”。“The Marshall Mathers LP”,“The 埃米纳姆 Show”,“ Lose Yourself”,“ Love The Way You Lie”和“ Not Afraid”都获得了美国唱片工业协会(RIAA)的钻石认证。埃米纳姆(埃米纳姆)赢得了无数奖项,包括15项格莱美奖,8项美国音乐奖,17项公告牌音乐奖,奥斯卡奖和MTV欧洲音乐全球偶像奖。 他在Billboard 200上拥有十张第一名的专辑,这些都连续登上排行榜的第一位,这使他成为唯一一位达到这一目标的艺术家,和Billboard Hot 100上的五张第一名的单曲。滚石将他列入了有史以来100位最伟大的艺术家名单。
在发行首张专辑《Infinite》(1996年)和迷你专辑《Slim Shady EP》(1997年)之后,埃米纳姆与Dr. Dre的Aftermath Entertainment签约,随后在1999年凭借The Slim Shady LP获得了主流流行。他的下两张专辑《The Marshall Mathers LP》(2000年)和《The 埃米纳姆 Show》(2002年)在全世界都很成功,均获得了格莱美奖年度专辑提名。在发行了他的最后一张专辑Encore(2004)之后,埃米纳姆在2005年中断了发行,部分原因是处方药 成瘾。四年后,他凭借Relapse(2009)的发行重返音乐界,并于次年发行了Recovery。Recovery是2010年全球最畅销的专辑,这使它成为埃米纳姆继2002年的The 埃米纳姆 Show之后的第二张全球年度最畅销专辑。在接下来的几年中,他发行了美国排名第一的专辑《The Marshall Mathers LP 2》,《Revival》,《Kamikaze》和《Music to Be Murdered By》。
除了个人职业生涯,埃米纳姆还是嘻哈组D12的成员。他还因与位于底特律的说唱歌手Royce da 5'9“的合作而闻名;两者合称为Bad Meets Evil。埃米纳姆出演了音乐剧电影《8 Mile》(2002年),扮演了他自己的虚构版本。并因其 “ Lose Yourself ”而获得了奥斯卡最佳原创歌曲奖。这使他成为第一位获得该奖项的嘻哈艺术家。他曾在电影《洗车好兄弟》(2001年),《命运好好笑》(2009年)和《采访》(2014年)以及电视剧《Entourage》(2010年)中客串演出。 埃米纳姆与经纪人Paul Rosenberg共同开发了包括Shady Records在内的其他企业,这有助于开拓50 Cent,Yelawolf和Obie Trice等艺术家的职业生涯。他还在天狼星卫星广播上建立了自己的频道Shade 45。
埃米纳姆以在中美洲地区普及嘻哈音乐而著称,其空前的全球商业成功和为白人说唱歌手赢得赞誉的作品因打破种族壁垒接受流行音乐中的白人说唱歌手而受到广泛认可。埃米纳姆白手起家,埃米纳姆的激起音乐的愤怒代表了美国下层阶级的现实。随着非裔美国人,西班牙裔和拉丁美洲裔美国人发展嘻哈艺术形式,埃米纳姆毫无争议地被视为有史以来最伟大的说唱歌手之一,而他以黑人音乐形式的突出地位使他被认为是21世纪流行音乐的重要人物。他对各种流派的艺术家都产生了巨大的影响。
Marshall Bruce Mathers III (born October 17, 1972), known professionally as Eminem (/ˌɛmɪˈnɛm/; often stylized as EMINƎM), is an American rapper, songwriter, and record producer. Credited with popularizing hip hop in Middle America, Eminem's global success and acclaimed works are widely regarded as having broken racial barriers for the acceptance of white rappers in popular music. While much of his transgressive work during the early 2000s made him hugely controversial, he came to be a representation of popular angst and the American underclass. He has been influential for many artists of various genres.
After his debut album Infinite (1996) and the extended play Slim Shady EP (1997), Eminem signed with Dr. Dre's Aftermath Entertainment and subsequently achieved mainstream popularity in 1999 with The Slim Shady LP. His next two releases The Marshall Mathers LP (2000) and The Eminem Show (2002) were worldwide successes and were both nominated for the Grammy Award for Album of the Year. After the release of his next album, Encore (2004), Eminem went on hiatus in 2005 partly due to a prescription drug addiction. He returned to the music industry four years later with the release of Relapse (2009), and Recovery was released the following year. Recovery was the best-selling album worldwide of 2010, making it Eminem's second album, after The Eminem Show in 2002, to be the best-selling album of the year worldwide. In the following years, he released the US number one albums The Marshall Mathers LP 2, Revival, Kamikaze and Music to Be Murdered By.
Eminem made his debut in the film industry with the musical drama film 8 Mile (2002), playing a fictionalized version of himself, and his track "Lose Yourself" from its soundtrack won the Academy Award for Best Original Song, making him the first hip hop artist to ever win the award. He has made cameo appearances in the films The Wash (2001), Funny People (2009), and The Interview (2014), and the television series Entourage (2010). Eminem has developed other ventures, including Shady Records, with manager Paul Rosenberg, which helped launch the careers of artists such as 50 Cent, Yelawolf and Obie Trice, among others. He has also established his own channel, Shade 45, on Sirius XM Radio. In addition to his solo career, Eminem was a member of the hip hop group D12. He is also known for collaborations with fellow Detroit-based rapper Royce da 5'9"; the two are collectively known as Bad Meets Evil.
Eminem is among the best-selling music artists of all time, with estimated worldwide sales of more than 220 million records. He was the best-selling music artist in the United States of the 2000s and the best-selling male music artist in the United States of the 2010s, third overall. Billboard named him the "Artist of the Decade (2000–2009)". The Marshall Mathers LP, The Eminem Show, "Lose Yourself", "Love the Way You Lie" and "Not Afraid" have all been certified Diamond or higher by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA). Rolling Stone included him in its lists of the 100 Greatest Artists of All Time and the 100 Greatest Songwriters of All Time. He has won numerous awards, including 15 Grammy Awards, eight American Music Awards, 17 Billboard Music Awards, an Academy Award and an MTV Europe Music Global Icon Award. He has had ten number one albums on the Billboard 200, which all consecutively debuted at number one on the chart making him the only artist to achieve this, and five number-one singles on the Billboard Hot 100.
