I forgot to do my countdown 2 days in a row, selective OCD dictates that I must catch up. 14 days - After the Slim Shady LP continues to ship over 50k units a week, it was no surprise that he would feature on Dr Dres follow up to The Chronic, 2001. 13 days - The Marshall Mathers LP is released and becomes highest selling hip hop album of all time (destroying 1993s Doggystyle for the honour). This album is considered by to be his magnum opus. Darker tones that see the Mr Mathers retaliate to other rappers, GLAAD, shock jocks, his mother, racism accusations and most of all; his new found fame. 12 days - D12 Devils Night Staying true to his roots, Mathers was determined to bring his D12 stable mates along for the ride. If the Slim Shady LP and Matshall Mathers LP were a cartoonish acid trip into the heart of a frustrated America, then Devils Night is a Hunter S Thompson-esque horror movie pretending to be a rap album.
