I read a review of Eminem and his album "The Eminem Show." The review claims that Eminem is well-known talented rapper that does not need introduction and this album proves it once again. The author provides evidence from reviewing songs from the album and tells what each songs about and how Eminem came about to write each songs. He provides contextual evidence by rephrasing lyrics from the songs and telling how these lyrics are related to his life and how creative it was for him to express all that into rap songs. For example in one song "White America", author tells how the lyric "If I was black I would have sold half/ I dont have to go to high school to have to know that" offends older generation but attracts many youths.
The author holds the attention by briefly listing all the songs in the album and describing main songs very nicely. He talks about the controversial issues about sex and aids and tell how it is related to Eminem's songs. There is a small picture of the album's cover, but that is only nontextual element the author employs. The author puts standard highly for Eminem for his popularity and fame and somewhat denounces this album a little compared to his preview ones, but still claims it is worth listening. He does not use special language and wrote review straightforwardly.
