...fire is often fueled by drawing on the black community's history of resistance to oppression. Since there's not much of a history of the Man keeping down blond, blue-eyed white kids, Eminem turns to another source to crank up his rage: his mom. On the very first line of the very first song, the stuttery Kill You, he starts taking shots: "When I was just a little baby boy my momma used to tell me these crazy things... then I got a little bit older and I realized she was the crazy one."

...think really big. In the next 10 or 20 years, what company could become so mammoth we'd look back and chuckle at the notion that we actually once considered GM or Wal-Mart a sizable outfit?

In lieu of his plans to get married (to Janet Jackson, of all people), Sherman decides to excise the DNA of his altar-ego, Buddy Love, from his system, but unwittingly...
...black-hooded anarchists who inflicted millions of dollars of damage on downtown Seattle. Njehu, who heads a coalition of more than 200 groups, will be on hand, along with thousands of union members, religious activists and environmentalists. Makeshift kitchens will serve free food, and rock bands will crank out hymns of protest...
