Measured in the dog years that make up a rap star's career, an epoch has passed since most people have thought about Eminem, let alone been riled up by him, and the world hardly paused in his absence.

He’d asked Jessica Simpson to do it, but she was busy catching cheeseburgers from Tony Romo. By now, Eminem’s realized that if he?...
...Levi Johnston on the Tyra Banks show • one can only imagine with giddy glee the displeasure of at the appearance of Levi Johnston on CBS's Early Show • one can only imagine with obscene pleasure the displeasure of at the exploitation of self in the new Eminem video • one can only imagine with purest bliss the displeasure of at the arrest - for breaking into the same home twice to steal a little money - of the half-sister of the husband...
