TRICKNN wrote First of all just wanted to let you guys know that there was a LOT of effort put into this, not just copy ad pasted on another site... + Rep would be great but Im NOT asking for it.

The Beginning -
Eminems real name (Marshall Mathers) born on October 17th, 1973 in Kansas. Marshall had a harsh childhood, his mother dying when he was just 12 years old. He dropped out of highschool in the nineth grade to become a rapper. He joined several groups including the famous group (D12). At first, he was poorly recieved by people but the became recognized as a great rapper as he made other rapping appearinces with Nas and AZ. As a result to all of his fame, he was signed by Dr.Dre's Record company (Aftermath Records) He was determined to write hit songs, and evetually he did just that. He became known with the Help of MTV(MusicTelevision)He had 2 great songs out, My name is & Guilty Consience and climbed up to the number 2 placing on the US album Chart in Early spring of 1999.

Later On-
Eminem continued on writing great hits in his brilliant musician carrer. As of 2010, he made the smash hit album - The Recovery. Recovery is the seventh studio album by American rapper Eminem, released June 18, 2010 by Aftermath Entertainment and Shady Records. Production for the album took place during 2009 to 2010 at several recording studios and was handled by several record producers, including Alex da Kid, Just Blaze, Boi-1da, Jim Jonsin, DJ Khalil, and Dr. Dre.

The album debuted at number one on the US Billboard 200 chart, selling 741,000 copies in its first week. It became Eminem's sixth consecutive number-one album in the United States and has produced two singles that achieved chart success, including international hits "Not Afraid" and "Love the Way You Lie". Upon its release, Recovery received great positive views by all people around the world.

As of now -
Eminem is still continuing to write his amazing music and sharing his thoughts in his rhymes in his brilliant rap songs. He may not always bring a positive side to his music, but he brings out his true strong opinions and really is a true hero and a great inspiration to all rappers out there. He is making great music and is really the spotlight out of all rappers. He's just become clean on drugs and is making positive choices now in his life.

And some of my favorites from Eminem:
Cinderella Man
Not Afraid
Love The Way You Lie
