The Eminem cash in continues with two new biographies of Slim Shady due later this year. The first – 'Cleanin Out My Closet' - is unauthorised which is always fun, though not necessarily that reliable. It's by JR Watkins, a self-proclaimed friend of Mr Mathers and ex-wife Kim. Billed as "the true story of Marshall Bruce Mathers III as a father, husband and friend" expect all the well trodden tabloid stories including stories about Eminem’s rumored romances with Mariah Carey and '8-Mile' co-star Brittany Murphy. The second has had Eminem’s cooperation throughout and comes from the pen of Rolling Stone journalist Anthony Bozza. 'Whatever You Say I Am' tells Eminem’s story plus includes interviews with Mr Shady and his 'inner circle' of Dr Dre, Snoop Dogg and D12.
