Eminem Hits 45

What happens to an artist who is considered one of the all-time best at what he does, has received numerous accolades and awards (including an Oscar), and is filthy rich, but finds himself at the age of 45 in a genre that has little respect for its elders? (Lest we forget: when LL Cool J told us not to call it a comeback he was 22 years old.)

Despite recognizing his talent the dude has always rubbed us the wrong way and so, for the sake of impartiality, we've chosen not to review his new record. But he's outraged enough at POTUS45 to openly dis him in an angry yet righteous way and has enough of a sense of humor to sample Dirk Diggler in Boogie Nights, so that's cool. We need our artists to step up. Oh, and, yeah, he uses samples...the kids will probably pass on this.
