Eminem's positive influence on my life

Eminem’s music has cured me from so many deseases I had inside. He has been an eye opener to me.

I used to be very hurt inside from problems I had since my childhood. My mom did not suffer from Munchhausen’s syndrome and I think my childhood has been a lot happier than Marshall’s. But I think my parents have abused me emotionally. My mom used to make me believe that I would never succeed in reaching my goals. When I was 6 years old, I wanted to be a writer and my mom told me that I would never get published, that I had nothing interesting to say anyway. Words can sometimes hurt more than being knocked right in the face.

I believed what she said and began to hate myself. My parents openly showed me that I was worth nothing (in their opinion). I hated them and used to feel very guilty about that.

The song ‘Cleaning Out My Closet’ has been much more then a therapy, it has shown me that you have the right to express your rage and your anger against your parents. When you are hurt, it is sometimes so hard to let your emotions out. When I’m singing this song, I feel liberated from all the negative emotions I had kept inside for years.

I also used to care about people’s opinion about me. I didn’t dare talking back when somebody insulted me. Thanks to Eminem’s ‘just don’t give a fuck attitude’, I now dare expressing my own opinions, no matter how people will judge me or call me. I have become self confident.

I was an old fashioned person in my whole way of life, I mean in nearly everything ( my clothing, my whole attitude). I used to suffer from a lot of inhibitions. Eminem has changed all this. His lyrics have thought me to humor myself. Through some of his jokes contained in his lyrics, I understood that it was useless to take myself too seriously.

But the most important I have learnt from Marshall Mathers through his life story and also through his lyrics is that you can succeed in your goals if you work hard at it and if you believe in your dreams.
I think I have found myself in Eminem’s music. I can relate to some of his songs and his music managed to move me deep inside.

Today I’m a self confident and balanced person and it is all thanks to Eminem.

    i think eminem is a really good rapper. people are always like o i hate eminem cause of all his tatoos and he swears alot. i mean so what if he has tatoos its his body not theirs and thats how he was bought up and he gets mad with his life that he swears abotu all the shit thats happens. everyone thinks he doesnt have feeling and you can say shit about him but he does have feelings like evry1 else and he shows this with his daughter hallie. he loves her so much and would do anything for her and i really look up to eminem.

    I think em is a pimp ass raper and peeps dat dont like him dont under stand him and da shit dat he has gone throught in his life. So they should not juge him by his Music maybe he got a grip of swearin in his music cuz that is how he is. I respect Em cuz i went throught da same kind of shit when i was a Lil grl my dad put a gun to my moms head and he waoked out of my life when i was a baby and now that i am 14 he wants me back in his life. My mom wolud always go out and get drunk and then come home and beet me and my sista that is now 15.And now Em is my Idol and i respet him for every thing that he dose. and em really loves his baby grl and she needs him in her live.
    Well i got to bounce
    hit me back just to caht and Em if you see this you are my fuckin IDOL and i LOVE YOU

Eminem has a sweet flow thats the real story

    Hey its jessica.. i feel for eminem because his life was really bad and i love his songs but when i listen to them you can tell hes angry with life and his parents and if i were him i woulnt stand for that (getting abused) but i think he forgot that he can speak for himself and he should have told on his stupid mom when she abused him and if she were to read this id tell her that she is a piece of crap because she had no right to talk to a six year old like that!Any way im rally writing this article thingy because if something like that is happening to you you need to get away! my friend has to deal with this and i cant say her name because i want her to tell herself. But the hardest part is telling on a family member.

    Eminem has changed many lives, and, even though I don’t know you, I’m glad that his music has changed you in a positive way. He has also changed my life. I was never scared to express myself, but I was worried of what people used to think of me. Now, I’m like, “Fuck all of you guys.” I hate it when people talk shit about him. Like when they extract part of his lyrics and publish them without showing the reason or meaning behind those words. People talk to much shit about Eminem, and the only REAL reason why they do that is because they are JEALOUS. When my friends talk shit about him and I don’t get mad because I know they are just jealous! So, if Eminem has changed your life, “…Please stand up!”

    i love eminem cause i can relate to him. i mean he has to deal with shit every single day. with his wife always making him feel like crap and taking care of Haily. man! and i thought that i had it rough. i just want to meet him and tell him that he is my ro-model. people say that i am making a bad choice to follow in his footsteps but hey what the hell! i just want to see him in person. my dream is to rap with him. just once. i can rap with my friends and even they think that i should go to an eminem concert and see him. my boyfriend loves to rap. in fact his e-mail is eminem’s_mini_me@hotmail.com (hey he’s taken!) anyway he and i just rap until we can’t rap no more. people express words through poetry, stories, or just words but me, my boyfriend, and eminem all express our feelings and emotions through rapping. peace to all who admire eminem as much as i do. for those who don’t burn in hell!

    eminem’s life history has taught me so much on how some1’s surroundings and family situation could do so much to actually change a person’s attitude towards life…his life brins me to the main topic: Nature or Nurture.
    nature; it’s when someone is born in a certain manner- this case…he/she is not to blame for having turned out the way they are.
    nurture; it’s when someone’s surrounding and family structure play an important part…they shape the person’s character- in this case, the person is still not to blame. however, his/her family/ surrrounding carry the whole weghit of blame and pain the person has to endure through the path of his life.
