Eminem

Eminem - rap singer

Eminem is my hero. I want to tell about Eminem. Eminem is a nickname of the famous rap singer Marshall Bruce Mathers. To me Eminem is a role model. He had a very hard life, his mother was homeland to drugs and alcohol, his father left him when he was a few months. I don't know why but i really connected to his story, because he went through so much. I like his songs, because he expresses himself by them. He has e very special style.

Eminem was born in the 70s. He always moved from one city to another but finally he moved to Detroit. He suffered his mom's attitude. She always brought new guys to their house. Marshall grew up, his uncle Ronnie was like his father. He got interested in rap, his uncle Ronnie encouraged him and he took him to clubs and rap fights. Ronnie committed suicide because of love issues. Eminem was sad, because he was the only person from his family that he loved. His mother said, "I wish it was you, and not him".

Marshall's girlfriend Kim was pregnant with his first girl Hailie. Eminem had to provide for his family, but his salary was very low. He recorded his songs in his basement. His songs were about his concerns about Hailie, and about his concerns that he couldn't provide for his family. One day, one producer found him, and invited Eminem to record his songs at his studio. They became partners, and Eminem became famous.

Eminem made mistakes but he tries to be a good person and what i love about him, that he loves so much his daughter that he is trying to get along with Kim.

I like Eminem. At the end he tried to be a good person and a good father. He started at the bottom and now he is at the top. He inspired me to get better.
