He is a myth and a madman. Wandering childhood is the main reason why Eminem is unhappy at everything, and rap has become his only outlet.
Eminem, who had a hard life since childhood, hardly enjoyed any warmth, which made him independent and decisive. He lived a carefree life when he was a child, so in his life, we can also see his fragility and loneliness.
Until now, Eminem didn't know who his father was. And his mother, also failed to give him much mother's care and care. Eminem grew up in the ghetto. So he witnessed many ugly transactions, despicable human nature, some gruesome shootings and violent incidents. Eminem said this in a radio interview. "Can you imagine seeing a corpse with eyes wide open at home? I swear I saw it. In the days to come, what I hope most is that God will bless me not to see this damn thing again. "
Eminem grew up tenaciously in such a bad environment.
Wherever he goes, people will argue whether his name is Marshall Mathers or Eminem or Slim Shady, but this does not prevent him from becoming a rap star. Marshall Bruce Mathers III was born in Kansas City, Missouri. I drifted around with my mother when I was a child, and finally settled in Detroit at the age of 12. He sang rap songs in the school cafeteria and achieved success. In ninth grade, his ambition for music career made him leave school and do some low-paying jobs. Since then, he has joined Basement Production, New Jack and other bands, and a duet named Soul Intention (published by F**king backstab).
1997, just renamed Eminem, released his first album unlimited under the independent label FBT. "Infinity is that I decide my rap style, my voice in front of the microphone, and recommend my own attempts to people," he later said. This album got a bad review, but the recording experience is very valuable to him.
Won the title of 1997 Best Freestyle Performer in the famous rap radio program "Wake Up" and finally won the second place in the freestyle competition of the Los Angeles Rap Olympic Games. Eminem hit back hard at those who used to find fault with him. In Slim Shady EP published the following year, Eminem satirized and attacked his detractors. The single "I just don't care" has become a very popular hit single in the underground music circle, so he was invited to cooperate with these famous artists in the single "Five-Star Admiral" by MC Shabaam Sahddeq and the album "Devil Without Cause" by Kid Rock. This exquisite little album strongly shocked the underground pop music circle. Eminem quickly won praise and applause from all directions, not only because of his exaggerated nasal rap style and controversial rap lyrics, but also because of his fair skin. Rap has always been regarded as black music, and all rap genres are dominated by black rappers. The young white singer who dared to venture into Longtan alone was quickly dubbed "great white hope" by rap fans. His controversial rap career seems doomed from birth.
Subsequently, Eminem was signed by affairs Records Company. The company's boss and rap legend Dr.Dre attached great importance to this young rapper and has been involved in the production of Eminem's new album. "The Slim Shady LP" obviously has the rhythm of Dr.Dre, which is a big gathering of excitement and violence, full of distorted lyrics and Eminem's own views on morality. Only one week after its release, this album set a best-selling record of over 2 million. Radio, television, newspapers and other major media have carried out extensive reports, and all aspects of praise have flooded into Eminem. At the 43rd Grammy Awards that year, Eminem was once again a big winner. Marshall Mathers LP won the best album award, and the title song "The Real Slim Shady" won the best single award. Eminem not only won these two awards, but also won the best rap group performance award for the song "Forgot Dre" sung with Dr.Dre. Eminem also made achievements in the MTV award ceremony held in music television. With the MV "Real Slim Shadows", Eminem won the Best MV Award of the Year and the Best MV Male Singer Award. Only two years after his debut, Eminem has won five Grammy Awards. Even Dr. Dray, who had an eye for talent, didn't expect such an achievement.
1999 belongs to Eminem. He announced his arrival to the world with his single "My name is", and the rhythm of the song ensured that people would never mistake who the singer was. This song is very interesting. It lashed out at the disgusting behavior of Pamela Anderson and his parents. The "radio edited version" of this song has been broadcast wildly all over the country, even the rock radio station is no exception, and even caused condemnation from hip-hop music groups.
The album "The Slim Shady LP" was a great success, and it was the runner-up on the Billboard album list in the first week of release. The lyrics in the record caused a lot of trouble. Eminem was accused of promoting homophobia, misogyny, rape and drug abuse. Song' 97 Bonnie &; Clyde also aroused people's indignation-it described Eminem's fantasy of murdering his wife. The album intentionally or unintentionally reveals his irresponsible dislike for his mother.
In Britain, the second single in the album was also released in the form of "Radio Edited Edition" and was a success. Although his first tour caused confusion everywhere, Eminem has been looking for opportunities to cooperate with many people, including DJ Spinna and missy elliott. In summer, he took part in a twisted trip to America, instead of Cypress Hill.
The second album, The Marshall Mathers LP, was released in May 2000, and fell to the top of the album charts in the United States in the first week of its release, becoming a great success, becoming the most successful rapper after 2Pac and Snoop Doggy Dogg in the golden age of rap in the mid-1990s. Eminem condemned many imitators in the single The Real Slim Shady, and satirized and accused Britney Spears and Christina. Compared with the first album, this album has a stronger rhythm and more vitality. Only the song "Stan" contrasts with the gloomy atmosphere of other songs-this song quotes an unforgettable passage from the work "Thank you" by British female singer Dido. This album still retains a powerful accusation of some shortcomings in human nature.
You can't turn on the radio all summer without hearing Eminem's voice The real Slim Shedy not only plays music on the radio all day, but also collaborates with Dr. Derry in Forgetting Dre. The rest of 2000 was also full of his news, including two charges of illegal possession of weapons (which forced him to miss the Carlin Music Festival), his lightning remarriage with his wife Kim, and his mother's accusation of talking nonsense in the album Slim Shady LP, which made her depressed and damaged her reputation and self-esteem.
In 200 1 year, he held a controversial tour in England and performed with Dido in London. In February, he swept the Grammy and won three awards. Surprisingly, he sang Stan with British rock veteran elton john on the podium. Although Eminem, a hooligan, can swear at Britney Spears, Christina and other popular idols without scruple, he will be as honest as a good boy in front of elton john, an old-timer beset with lawsuits during this period.
In 2002, Eminem made a comeback and showed his talent in another brand-new field. He starred in his first Hollywood film, Eight Miles. The film tells the growth story of a white boy who loves rap. The protagonist's parents divorced in their early years and managed to make ends meet at the minimum wage in the car factory. In the field of rap, I was discriminated against and humiliated because I was white, and my bitter life was touching. The content of the film seems to be tailor-made for Eminem, telling his growth story to fans in person. Once the film was released, it caused a sensation not only in the rap world, but also in Hollywood. Eminem also won the Oscar for Best Original Song for his original song Lost in the film, becoming the first person in the pop music industry to win an Oscar. The new field has blossomed and borne fruit, and Eminem's favorite line has not fallen behind. In the same year, Eminem released his third album Eminem Show. The album sales were as hot as ever, and Eminem stood on the Grammy podium again. Eminem Show won the best rap album award at the 45th Grammy, and the title song Without Me won the best short film MV award. With three albums and three Grammy awards for best rap album, Eminem lived up to the nickname "Great White Hope" given by fans in those years, and now his hope has come true. Although Amro's fame can be described as soaring, he has experienced hardships in his life. With his obsession with rap music, this white boy has made such achievements in the rap world dominated by blacks, which confirms an old saying of China: "Where there is a will, there is a way."
No matter what happens in the future, the music industry now belongs to Eminem, a big rascal.
