Correction: I stated in my homily that the rapper Eminem signed with Death Row Records. I assumed this was true because he worked with Dr. Dre who was one of the founders of Death Row Records. Eminem was asked to sign with record label but never did. However, he did sign with Dr. Dre’s Aftermath Entertainment and subsequently achieved mainstream popularity in 1999 with the Slim Shady LP.
