Eminem is Broke





So, Eminem released "We Made You" from his fourth album, Relapse, yesterday. Spoofing everything from Rainman to current celebrity couples, Jessica Simpson has vowed not to watch it and Kim Kardashian said she's flattered.

If you're looking for some late 90's Eminem nostalgia, it's a good way to spend four minutes. Unfortunately, it's not a rousing social commentary, even with the addition of Alaska Goverer Sarah Palin. Sadder still, it's a desperate plea to his fans to buy some records pity-style. There's even a subtle plug in the middle of the song, "Think I've got a dirty moth? You should hear the rest of my album!". If only something rhymed with, "Now available on iTunes".

I liked this guy when his name was Weird Al.
