The logo shouldn't be in the infobox; it doesn't seem to meet the
fair use criteria. (This is the case for a lot of music articles by the way).
You may want to begin the article with "Eminem (born
17 October1972 as Marshall Bruce Mathers III) is an..." (like
Frank Black). I would leave Slim Shady for the "Also known as" section of the infobox.
Is "Marshall Mathers" really an a.k.a? It's his birth name, so I would remove it from the infobox and refer to "Marshall Mathers" throughout the prose,
After reading the whole article, I am not sure that the lead is properly summarizing.
I would like a more coherent, and comprehensive approach of his art. Controversies is an issue, but what about the clearly artistic part of what he has done? What critics say about his lyrics, music etc. What Seamus Heaney says is a part of such an approach, but we need more material.
