Gavin's Blog

The video for Eminem’s brandnew song Mosh has been leaked this morning to my greatest pleasure. Picture Eminem in the role of a teacher: kids and adults, ready for your first anti war lesson. Follow Marshall, now headed with a American flag bandana, to the streets of America, expressing his rage against the headlines showing Bush’s war plans.
Some images of the half animated video recall steps of Marshall’s way to the top.
Mosh is a stab at President Bush’s policy.

I guess I have always been a black music lover. I have discovered James Brown in the mid 80’s. They call him « The Godfather of Soul ». His music is entertaining and emotional at the same time, it is a rich mixture of several musical genres like soul, blues, jazz, gospel, funky and soul. James Brown is one of those men who communicates a lot of energy and enthusiasm through his music.

Eminem is a man who has the courage to stand up for his opinions, particularly when it has to do with President Bush’s war policy.

With the release of his recent « Just Lose It » video and the release of Bush bashing song Mosh, Eminem has received some negative feedback in the media. But Marshall perfectly know what to respond to his opponents.

Dear friends and fellows,

I have decided to create my own blog that will be called “Isa’s blog about Eminem”. Why create this place? I already do write for Gavin and for UMFM…

The reason is simple. I have created this space because it is a chance for us freelance writers to get a little bit money when people read us…
I am asking you, please to support me and to visit my blog. I’d also be very grateful to anybody who could help me advertising this little personal space.

Thanks in advance for your help. My blog is located here:

The tracklisting for EMINEM’s long-awaited new album has leaked, NME.COM can exclusively reveal:

‘Encore’ is released on November 15 in the UK, and despite attempts to keep the tracklisting secret due to fears over file-sharing, it has been published.

I couldn’t believe my eyes as I discovered the news in the UK mirror yesterday. The Mirror certainly wanted to make a big sensation by showing a title like « Eminem’s « father » shoot himself in the head.

EMINEM was devastated last night after the uncle who he regarded as his dad committed suicide:

Todd Nelson shot himself in the head as he sat in his car. He had become depressed over a sheriff’s rottweiler which was allegedly terrorising his family.

The 42-year-old helped raise Eminem, whose real father walked out when the rapper was a baby.

It is the second close relative the 32-year-old controversial star – real name Marshall Mathers III – has lost to suicide.

His other uncle, Ronnie, killed himself after being dumped by his girlfriend.

A family friend said: “This news has hit Marshall hard. It will bring back all the memories of losing Ronnie.

“To lose two uncles at such a young age is terribly sad, especially as his father has never been around. The fact they both committed suicide is so tragic.”

Eminem’s granny, Betty Kresin, said the family was “completely devastated”. She added: “I’m so heart-broken, I don’t know if I can handle this as well. He’ll be buried next to my Ronnie.

“Todd had been very upset about a rottweiler owned by a local sheriff who was causing problems for his family.

“The dog scared his girlfriend’s son and scratched his car.

“But when he complained to police, they wouldn’t do anything about it.

“He shot himself in his car in his own backyard. My grandson, Todd junior, found his body. He thought his dad was asleep but he was dead.

“He called me and then Marshall and the rest of the family.”

Betty said her daughter, Debbie, Eminem’s mum, rang the star to tell him they are to bring Todd’s body home to St Joseph, Missouri, following his death in Michigan.

It is the latest family tragedy to strike Eminem.

His ex-wife, Kim, tried to kill herself four years ago. And mum Debbie, 48, who he once called a slut in a song, is recovering from breast cancer.

His tormented family life has inspired many of his songs. He recently fell out with Todd over his uncle’s plans to sell the family home. But when he was younger, he idolised Todd.

In the past, his uncle said Eminem had been “a shy kid with few friends”.

He added: “Marshall grew up believing he was different to everyone else. It was something instilled in him from an early age by Debbie, me and his grandmother.

“Marshall was a happy kid. He was good at entertaining himself and he laughed a lot.

“I remember one time I walked into his room and saw all these posters of black superstars on his walls. Basketball stars, baseball players, rappers. He would spend hours drawing groups such as Public Enemy and NWA. Even as a kid, he idolised Dr Dre.

“At the time I thought he was going through some kind of identity crisis. But I guess he just knew from an early age.

“Everything Marshall has achieved professionally is wonderful. I couldn’t be more proud of him.”

Mosh is a meaningful and powerful song. Listening to it increased the huge respect I already have for Eminem.

How many people will stay in their ignorant blindness and madness
Supporting a man like Bush who should have landed earlier in the trash
I wish he was the victim of a plane crash…
Open your eyes, it’s been a long time
This fucking government is spreading a bunch of lies
It is obvious, Bush wants more cash

The song is really great. Come get Eminem’s new bomb here:

« So sue me… ». Eminem’s statement seems to be taken very literally by some people. Not only his mom and his ex wife, but also people from the music industry like the French pianist Jacques Loussier have intended to take Marshall Mathers to Court. It seems like Eminem’s name and fortune is an easy way to get some rapid publicity and a big maggot at the same time in many people’s mind. If it wasn’t the case, Eminem wouldn’t have collected so many lawsuits in a couple of years.

Usually Eminem haters piss me off. I hate reading their comments. In Chuck DiMaria’s case, it is a little bit different. He even managed to make me smile as I happened to cross his website where I got to read his article entitled «’ Why I hate Eminem‘ »:
