Eminem’s new video, “Mosh” is important. It’s Public Enemy important. It’s so important that Eminem’s arch nemesis Moby wants you to see it. “You know Eminem and I have had our differences in the past, but this video is the best thing I’ve seen all year” the techno musician wrote in his October 26, the day after “Mosh” was “leaked” on the Internet. “It’s an amazing song and an even more amazing video,” wrote Moby, who has exchanged barbs with Eminem through the media.

On the Internet, where “Mosh” appeared only a week before the election, chat room participants discuss “da black hoodie movement.” You have to wonder why Eminem released this song too late to get people to register to vote. Perhaps he’s hoping to mobilize those who already signed up at the behest of P. Diddy and friends while “Mosh” is still fresh in our heads — not background noise.

There's also a poll about half-way down to the right:
"Do you think Eminem will stir young fans to vote with his new video, "Mosh"?"

So far 86% think it will stir the youth vote.
