Da ormai più di 20 anni, Eminem è una delle star della musica più grandi e controverse del mondo, forse la figura più importante uscita dalla musica popolare dai tempi di Kurt Cobain. "Whatever You Say I AM" - basato su interviste esclusive con i membri della famiglia di Eminem, figure chiave nel mondo della musica, sociologi e diverse fotografie inedite - è il libro che rivela senza filtri né censure l'uomo dietro il microfono. Lo scrittore Anthony Bozza, grazie ai numerosi incontri con Eminem, è riuscito a raccontare la vita, i demoni e la sua straordinaria ascesa alla celebrità da una posizione privilegiata, un punto di vista esclusivo che il rapper non concederà più ad alcun giornalista negli anni a venire.
