@ 1st I had thought His recording name came from His initials Marshall Mathers. What do we have N common X wives named Kim the love & inspiration from our Daughters, I lived N a trailer park N the mid 80's! He worked @ Lodge that has the same name as My Late fathers Middle name! He flew Me out to Seattle the 1st time & spent the summer helping Him get His 1st Pawn Shop "Burien Jewelry & Loans" Burien Wa. 1 of His buddies knew Ed Locke of Nastymix Records & He took Me there & I got 2 meet EVERYONE Xcept Mix Alot. It was like a Big Ass family there. He autographed His business card I keep N my drawer safe, I wore mt Hat & hung up the posters N my Senior year H.S. Pix. That meeting inspired me 2 start making music, I began using Mod Plug tracker & was making mods using Grey Angel Conspiracy, I was inspired 2 use this title due 2 my late step Grandfathers time being stationed @ WPAFB where some of the Roswell crash wreckage had 1st went to, which was NOT a hot air balloon W/a monkey N it!!! For a # of years I was posting some of my tacks on the old MP3 dot com site. I later moved onto Sonic Foundry software later bought out by SONY. I found 2 of my songs on YouTube many years ago💪I use TFN74 also as a recording name 4 my music which is mainly Electronica, Techno, Easy Listening I did vocals on a couple trax, 1 called "TIRED" Nspired on the early years of the unstable relationship my late Biological Father & I had. Never give up & Never surrender on ur dreams & goals N life, you've got this! TIFFEN

There's a deep crack in his armour. He barked politics for kamala for a few mill. Kinda' pathetic.....
@vladimirfroane3652Man, korn could've signed Eminem before he blew up. Crazy
@Gary-youtube-h1the best rapper of all time
@Mouad_d66That picture of Dre was funny he's like what the f*** did I do
@jimmycrooke9646I wouldn’t say reinvented I’d say reinstated
@Bunny-MisfitEm is the 🐐 ! He was always there for me as a kid in the late 90s through early 00s and he’s STILL THERE FOR ME today in 2026. So grateful for this man and his existence. ❤
@GeoBabyyImagine those people in rehab going with the O.G Rap God.
@DanielCaputo-w2uThere will never be another Eminem. I'm glad I got to grow up with him.
@BigPoppaPump69Leaving you child is heartbreaking to a kid
@MA-lb8dqWhen people have this long of a rap career, they usually don’t have so many layers prime, Proof dies, overdose, recovery, revisiting prime. Imagine Proof didn’t get shot
@DesimelsToDecibelsI am a recovering addict.\n And I have 20 years\n Clean now and I'm happy. For Eminem, getting clean.\nMy addiction started when I was 13 here in Baltimore city in Southwest Baltimore.\n At I started using heroin when I was 13 A guy from my neighborhood shot me up.\nWith heroin he was 25 years old.😢.
@DonaldArnold-b9zLike Eminem, good documentary
@djwalkerfemaledjSad that even reinvented sh*t is still sh*t 🤷♂️
Rap is a crime on humanity
This is such a good channel shame you stop posting videos
@santiagocarreno5881I think that people that only like Eminem for his prime, don't get what art is... in Ems case its raw, its honest and so it has to grow and change with him... its a mirror of his current state. And sure there is still some anger, some controversy, but how boring and sad would it be, if the guy - after all this - would not be allowed to get a break from having a shit life and can be a little bit more boring and nice and joyful for once
@thetomster7625its incredible how much this guy has his shit together, after that childhood
@thetomster7625Em was the first rapper who said fuck your feelings. Thats on you if you get offended😂
@Derby590Honestly I think Houdini is not getting enough cred from this guy. I dove into Em because I had to know where all this lyrical genius was coming from and I didn't notice a difference in quality between Without Me, Real Slim Shady, Sing For The Moment, Like Toy Soldiers and Houdini. Yes, it's true that he doesn't rule the charts anymore and he's not the guy who causes outrage for the love of the game anymore either, but he's still an icon that deserves all the recognition he gets rn. If anything, Houdini shows us how old fans still long for the deranged Slim Shady, instead of looking at the current rapper that is literally the same guy
@Snoflakes_1You write from the heart and it's his way of getting it out I understand im a woman and was having to sleep in cars go days without food at age 15 then married a man that abused me the whole time I was with him . Then married and again had a son at age 41 and had a tubal 16 years prior he was sent to me my first and fourth baby boys died same day they were born he's my only living son have two grown daughters but left his dad when my son was four his dad did same thing first one done I've stood on my own 14 years now my son is 18 and such a good man so yes I have been thru more than what I've said here.i can say what I went through made me look inward to who I wanted to be and I'm happy with myself my saying what doesn't break you will make you
@tonisharp3585Its funny bc the death of slim shady is his best album since his early 3 projects when he literally ruled the world..mans came all the way back

@UnivalentpureGAfter what I just heard...I cant believe what Im hearing. I cannot handle hearing this gossip about personal judgements. Ug😢😮
@DawnPaquinOMG Im so sorry about your childhood life. Man.... I feel for ya friend 🧡
@DawnPaquinIm so proud of him. Hes like a son Id love to have...had I ever had any.😊❤ Hes so freaking genuine. A masterpiece and underrated
@DawnPaquinHey...Eminem ...I wrote a song.Youd be the only person that would be able to sing the words and still be respected. ❤😮For real. Its a great song...Only U can sing or rap it
@DawnPaquinWow. How far he has made it on top. Hes a genuine exceptional great person
Im sorry his life growing was so difficult. It made him as wise as he is. Hes humble and proud. Hes a great father..I presume. Much respect for Eminem. First introduced to his music in college ...years ago😊❤.
My fave rapper
@DawnPaquin9:55 Yo, calling the Beastie Boys "clownish"?! WTF Who gave you license to ill, man? So much disrespect.
@retard_activated10:06 kamikaze?
@You2ube1239Crazy to think he was already desearving to be at the top of rap scene, but it took some time for the people who actualy understand and see the potential to note him...crazy...
Is there any alternative universe where Dr.Dre never notices Em?
HE IS LEGEND FOR ME ALWAYS , THE LOYALTY , THE PROTECTOR AND A PERSON WHO DARE TO TELL THE TRUTH .
@CONSTANTINE.ENGINEER.PRIVATE‘Angry White Boy’
@Jeev.999The world hated on a man who just wants to express himself to deal with stress and pain. He ends up winning global respect and becoming one of the most studied lyrical artists of all time. Go figure. Absolute proof that the only thing you ever need to do is just be yourself AND FUCK THE HATERS.
@GH-bz2vljust give him coke and the real slim shady will stand up.
@chuckcatipay7947Eminem sound like a chipmunk 🐿️,
that got gangb@ng by Teletubbies...
at a clown 🤡 convention.
Relapse is one of thee best Albums I own 😮
@charMGKThis was such a great man! R.I.P. brother , love from Serbia
@dp868I remember hearing my name is on the radio. It was so different, so cool. His first two albums are unmatched. Even my him. It was a wild time to be alive.
@dreamcatcher75418he is a grandpa now
@WayLin-t5bThe boy just caught a wave of the culture changing in America
@yourmomshairysnatchWill the real Slim Shady?Please sit your butt down and just give.Thanks to all and all that is yes
@JamesABoone-y7nMe being born in the 90s Personally I think Eminem is a legend and yeah he went through bad spots but don't we all as humans.
@dragonbeats-xyzEm is kinda like, " I don't wanna meet my father " .... that is kinda more religious than who he thinks he is. Either God or just a human, but more so cool, hes still alive.
@TeknakillI am a 64 year old who really can’t relate to rap but I can relate to a young man having three of my own to want to make something of himself. I love his story of triumph and determination. The struggle of coming out of a hard time and making something of himself says something that there is no excuse to life. Everyone can succeed in life they just need to find what makes them successful. Music, art, math, science, etc. Don’t let school make who you want to be. Find an interest and go for it.
@melissamateo317The fact the corrupt arrogant egocentric rap has a platform and "Breakdancing" which has a positive influence on our youth, speaks volumes to me!!
@SmoothP-v4uI wish I could have interviewed Eminem. I do not think anyone has ever asked him this question, or he has not addressed it himself: Why did he keep his father's name considering his betrayal and rejection?
