Alter Egos in Music

In class when we discussed how for the Beatles album Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band Paul Mccartny gave each band member an alter ego to use throughout each song. I thought that this made the album super interesting and helped the album flow with a playful tone. Some Artists that I can think of who have alter egos are prince and probably the most recognizable is Eminem.

Here is a song that displays Eminem's alter egos through a story told in the perspective of a supposed fan but it may also be taken as Eminem talking to himself and pointing out his own flaws.
