He's not mainstream to the level of doing a half time show or to the national media. For the longest time Eminem would not be touched by any company for their advertising but now it seems like he is fixing his act up so he can be mainstream.
Music wise he might be mainstream but up until now he was never looked at a guy that could not be marketed because of his past lyrics and the such. I think he's a douche bag but if he starts doing good things for the city instead of making songs about getting shot up in Detroit, I'm all for it.
