It's a little bloated. I understand why you included 97 Bonnie & Clyde, but it adds unnecessary weight to the first paragraph.
Your assertion that art can technically be immoral is incorrect, from my perspective anyway. While actions can be immoral, a representation of these thoughts is not. A painting of rape is not immoral. Rape is immoral, the depiction is fairly neutral.
Intent is where the morality lies. If your intent is to glorify rape, or murder, then that may be immoral. If you are only depicting what is happening, or what has happened, or what could have happened...depictions are neither moral nor immoral.
So, again, the question is what Eminem's intent behind the song was...and your challenge is, of course, how to address that question.

yeah...i hear what you're saying..at first i was planning on REALLY BSing the essay...so i was bringing up a bunch of shit (like 97BAC) then i kinda started answering the topic questions...
as for the whole art and morality thing..i was not married to the idea i argued..i could have went either way...i just thought it was easier to argue this...plus it allowed me to bring up the rape of europa which is something we were discussing in class lol.
i should have just written the essay on 'Dexter' lol
i also feel like i was arguing both sides..when i mentioned the 'toaster' quote..and the 'hitler' one too
the whole dichotomy of man thing sounded good too..prob couldnt have mentioned that if i argued the opposing side
