As others have said, you can do E minor over all of that, then you need to switch over to E harmonic minor on the B chord. You can also do E minor pentatonic for the majority of the progression, too. What instrument do you play? Guitar? (Assuming from your user name.) Try these out:

Code:

E minor pentatonic

E-7-10-12
B-8-10
G-7-9
D-7-9
A-7-10

E-7-8-11-12
