Short introduction

early life

Eminem was born in the fall of 1972 in St. Joseph, Missouri. His real name is Marshall Bruce Mathers – Eminem is a variation of his initials, M & M. The father left the family early, the mother suffered from alcohol addiction and mental disorders, according to Eminem. She herself defended herself against these allegations and even sued her son.

Career
