The Music Scene Needs Eminem
David Usborne of the New Zealand Herald shared his thoughts on Eminem ahead of this weekend’s release of ‘The Eminem Show’. Usborne said, “The music scene needs Eminem, just like it once needed the punk explosion or Alice Cooper. He provides the polarity to a landscape dominated by pre-packaged, squeaky clean candy-bar acts such as Britney Spears, Christina Aguilera and the Back Street Boys. And he resonates because he is simultaneously so ordinary. He raps for the millions of teenagers who feel alienated and are contemptuous of adult society.”
