7 Facts on Eminem ...

Eminem is one of my favorite singers. There is just something in the lyrics he raps that really captures my attention. Maybe a part of me can relate to him. I never understood why people would hate this singer. He has a story to tell. He has a life he wants to rap about. He has beliefs that he is not afraid to speak. I think one of the reasons a part of me looks up to him is because he is not afraid of what people say. He is not afraid to voice his own opinion and as many of you know, I am not afraid to voice my opinion either. I must say that I really love his new album that came out. Right now, I am going to give you 7 facts on Eminem …

Marshall, I do not blame you if you do not like your mother. Seems he had a really crappy childhood that no child should have to go through. Eminem’s mother, Debbie R. Mathers-Briggs sued Eminem for twelve million dollars for defamation. She settled for 25,000 dollars.

We hear him mention his daughter a number of times in his songs. Hailie Jade is his biological daughter. She was born on December 25, 1995. Wow, his daughter was born on Christmas.

Eminem was discovered by Dr. Dre after he called into a radio station and started to rap on air. I must say thanks to Dr. Dre for discovering such great talent. Talent such as this should not go to a waste and he isn’t putting it to waste at all.

Mosh

In late 2004, before the presidential election, he released the song title “Mosh.” This song criticizes president George. W. Bush. As you could imagine, he had many critics on this one. I think it was a great song.

Kim’s Dissatisfaction

We probably all know about Kim. With Eminem’s rise to fame, new disputes came about between Kim and Eminem. Did you hear “97 Bonnie & Clyde?” I don’t think Kim liked this. The tension got even higher when Marshall watched Kim kissing John Guerrera outside of a Café in Warren on June 4, 2000. Eminem threatened the guy with a 9mm semi-automatic, which was unloaded. Allegedly, he pistol-whipped him. Guerrera is mention in “Sing for the Moment.” Saying “You’re full of sh*t too, Guerrera, that was a fist that hit you.” The next day, Marshall was said to be involved in a dispute in Red Oak, Michigan with Douglas Dail who is an associate for ICP.

He raps about real life and that is something that I really like about him. He’s not one of those fake people. I don’t see fake written on him at all. So, what is your opinion on him?

am andrew talkin about eminem he is ahot guy

been listening to eminem since i was 11. also had d biggest crush on him all thorugh my pre-teen years. i choose him any day over these mainstream mindless hip hop rapper singing songs that talk about nothing but sex and booties n "pimpin". eminem s REAL.

ive loved eminem for suchhh a long time and ALWAYS got made fun of. now all of a sudden the kids who made fun of me are so-called "die-hard fans" UGH people... anyways ♥ <-- what more can i can say?

I love him! He is the best artist out there! I have respect for him man, the way he tells everyone his life! And with everything hes been trough, hes great! <3 <3 :)Xx

Happy happy happy! Best post ever, plus all the eye candy! His evolution as an artist really is astounding, as is his personal evolution -- and the way the two coincide.

i totally love him,huge............theres no rap artiste dt has ever beaten him in my world,he rocks,absolutely. Go on emi...........

correction, marshall was born in 1972, not 1973. thanx

I honestly don't think they like him because he does rap about his life and how he perceives it in his songs. I personally love his music and him as a person. He grew up rough and has made something of himself, which a lot of people never do, and whether they admit it or not I think they envy him to a point, but then again this is my opinion.
