Eminem Book Comes With New DVD - Order Now

Postby Jumbo » Oct 4th, '08, 22:11

On October 21st, Em is releasing his second book. The Way I Am is a collection of Marshall's personal stories, reflections, photographs, original artwork, and never before published lyric sheets. In the first printing of the book, there is also a DVD included which contains Em's personally shot video footage and unreleased interviews.

A couple of my favorite things about the book are the cover and the detachable lyric sheets. The cover is a red acetate film that slides over the traditional book print (similar to Jay-Z's Kingdom Come CD). The red jacket masks the collage of Em's handwritten lyrics on top of the underlying photo... you kind of have to see it to really get the effect. Also inside the book in the back are several perforated pages which one can pull out of the book. On these pages are reproductions of Em's actual lyric sheets for songs like "Stan" and "Lose Yourself". I fought hard for the book to have the pages detachable because there is something special about being able to hold the actual page in your hand and turn it around and around to decipher what Em's semi-legible writing is saying. (Somehow he reads right off of the pages with ease and can see the song there). Again, you have to really see the lyric sheets to fully understand what I'm describing.

So, there are two ways to do that! First, of course, you can buy the book when it comes out on 10/21 everywhere in the U.S. Second, you can enter the Sirius Satellite Radio Shade45 contest for the book by clicking here. Grand prize winner will receive a all-expense paid trip to NYC for the book launch event along with other special prizes.


YOU have the chance to get the book with the new DVD.

Eminem's new 208-page book called "The Way I Am," containing detachable lyric sheets, handwritten lyrics, personal photographs and more. The first printing of the books will contain a DVD with personal video footage, unreleased interviews and all kinds of goodies, so make sure you get one of the first copies, pre-order it now!

That means that we will see Em' in NYC the 21nd :confusion: ?! So that means maybe that his promo for his new album (King Mathers / The Empack) will also begin around these days ! :D

Seems to be good news ! :y:

PS: Can somebody say me if that book will be avaible in Europe (Belgium) ??

It's not that. It's the fact that I never really ordered anything online, because in my country, due to the economic state, it's not worth it financially to do this stuff. Our salaries are very small, and if I did decide to order something, then I would have to pay a lot of money because of the international shipping fees. And this may be shocking to you, but I don't even use credit cards, I always pay with cash, so I'm not really used to this "system"... In my country, an average worker's salary (most of it) goes to food and bills, so yeah, it sucks living in Romania :D
