48. Eminem, The Marshall Mathers LP
Many think that the Hitsville, U.S.A. (the Motown museum) is the most iconic house in pop music in Detroit. They might be wrong. After Eminem featured the house located 19446 Dresden Street on the cover of his The Marshall Mathers LP and The Marshall Mathers LP II albums, many have made this a shrine to rap excellence. Let’s face it, it is the childhood home of one of Hip-Hop’s most influential voices (and pens). Dark, shadowy, and grim, the image paints for Slim Shady the memory of where he came from — pointing to his struggle to overcome childhood trauma. He once said about using the house, “I had mixed feelings because I had a lot of good and bad memories in that house. To go back to where I grew up and finally say, ‘I’ve made it’, is the greatest feeling in the world to me.”
