Eminem, The Marshall Mathers LP 2 (10th Anniversary Edition) (Shady/Aftermath/Interscope/UMe) (iTunes / Amazon) Eminem’s eighth album from 2013 served as a sequel of sorts to his acclaimed third album from 2000 (which featured the rapper’s first Top 10 hit, “The Real Slim Shady,” and the unforgettable “Stan”).

February 27, 2017 by Mike Duquette | 1 Comment

Interscope Records is gonna party like it’s your birthday by releasing a compilation by Queens rapper 50 Cent. Born Curtis Jackson in the South Jamaica borough, 50 Cent walked away from a life selling drugs to pursue a music career. But his first taste of success–a well-received debut single, “How to Rob,” from an album recorded for Columbia Records–was thrown into jeopardy when an assailant shot him nine times outside his grandmother’s home. After recovering and recording new material, 50 connected with Eminem and Dr. Dre, signing a deal to their Shady/Aftermath…
