8 Mile Style
I read an article today about how Eminem's music publisher is suing Apple for using one of his songs to promote iTunes. It was interesting because it referred to 8 Mile Style, whom I had never heard of. I always thought Eminem started life at Interscope Records, working for Dr. Dre.

However, I visited 8 Mile Style's website, which has a bit of history on it. It's the classic story of two brothers, Jeff and Mark Bass, who promoted Eminem, and got him to the attention of Interscope Records.
