St. Petersburg 2nd Krasnoarmeyskaya St. One of the best -selling musical artists in the world, the holder of fifteen awards Grammy and the Oscar Awards for the best song for the film “8 Mile”, where he played the main role. His parents, Marshall Bruce Maters Jr. They got married when the Deborah was 15, soon she gave birth to her son. The children's photo of Eminem of the birth were heavy and long - they lasted 73 hours and almost ended in the death of the mother.

Six months after that, Marshall's parents parted, his father moved to California, got a new family with two children - Michael and Sarah - and completely forgot about his eldest son. Later, by a teenager, Marshall tried to contact his father and wrote him several letters, but he did not even print them and sent them back. Eminem and his mother Deborah, trying to arrange her personal life, his mother left her son after his father when he had not yet been a year old, and with the years the boy was raised by the cousin Edna.

Then Deborah returned, but during the wanderings she managed to add up to alcohol, and later brought home several times several times, not one of which was delayed for a long time. Eminem’s childhood cannot be called the light Marshall and Deborah constantly moving from place to place, mainly living with relatives, and rarely remained in the same house for more than a year.

A few years later, the mother gave birth to another son, Nathan. Finally, when Marshall was 12, the family settled in a suburb of Detroit. The acquaintances of that time remembered Eminem as "generally a happy child, but closed." The house in Detroit, where Eminem’s childhood has passed, life in a new place was complicated by the fact that the teenager was not accepted by local guys, mostly black children from working families.

The boy was constantly teased, he almost every day was attacked and beaten. Subsequently, these sad moments were reflected in Eminem's texts, in particular, in the song “Brain Damage”: “I was pursued by the fat man de Angelo Bailey - he was an eighth grader and behaved brazenly because he had a papa boxer.” Eminem in childhood and now in the year, it was this teenager who once hit Marshall so much on the head that he lay in a coma for 10 days, and the doctors almost did not hope for his recovery.

Well, you know, they lifted all that. Once we crashed him right on the head, on the back of the head. When we saw that he was not moving, we fled. And then they lied and said that he slipped on the ice. ” In the center: Eminem's younger brother Neatan the first work with rapper Marshall introduced his uncle Ronnie Polkinghorn, who was only a few months older than him and became his first mentor in music.

Marshall Maters and his Uncle Ronnie the year Ronnie recorded several of his cassettes for his nephew. In addition to rap, the boy liked to compose stories and draw homemade comics. Teenagers regularly participated in local unofficial Freestyle competitions. Gradually conquering a place in the field, which had previously been considered a 100 % prerogative of blacks, they acquired more and more fans.

Youth Marshall did not study well at school, especially in high school - not because he lacked his abilities, but because he was not at all interested in his studies. All he needed was to read rap. Having failed to graduate from the 9th grade, even having spent 3 years in a row in the Lincoln school for 3 years, at the age of 17, he threw his studies forever.

In the year, Uncle Ronnie shot himself as a very young eminent because of unhappy love, and for Eminem it became such a shock that he was numb for several days. The young man’s mother, Deborah constantly conflict with him. From an early age, Marshall had to earn extra money to help her support her family, and yet, she very often drove him out of the house. She had a difficult character, which one of the social workers described as "increased suspicion close to paranoia." Nevertheless, in the year she sheltered a friend of her son Kimberly Scott, who later became Eminem’s wife.

Eminem met the future wife at the age of 15. She was 12 later the singer published the information that Deborah plus everything suffered from Munchausen syndrome-a mental disorder in which a person comes up with or deliberately causes a serious illness in one of the relatives to use the increased attention, sympathy and help of others. For this reason, his completely healthy 9-year-old brother Nathan lay in the hospital for a year.

In the end, in order to stop this mockery and provide his mother with qualified assistance, Marshal was forced to testify against her in court, and then he began to raise his brother on his own. A difficult childhood and testing of youth gave the strongest impetus to Eminem's work. The musical career in the year Eminem made his debut as a professional musician as part of the New Jacks group, and then, when it broke up, in the Soul Intent group, where his friend Proof and DJ Butterfingers also participated.This disk did not arouse the great interest of the listeners, because Detroit at that time was already oversaturated with hip-hop.

The film “8 Mile” with Eminem in the title role in many respects autobiographical Eminem was very upset by the failure of his debut album, but later he himself admitted that his own style had not yet developed, and that record was only a breakdown of the pen. In addition, the main lyrical theme of this work was the singer’s experiences on how to raise a newborn daughter, having very little money-what he received a review: “Maybe you better go to rock and roll?

The first album of Eminem failed the new mood of the singer led to the creation of a new stage image, a kind of alter ego under the pseudonym Slim Shaidi Slim Shady. Slim literally with sadistic pleasure sang violence, drugs and even murders, but under this outer shell he also touched on deeper topics of social injustice, poverty, love and family problems. Thus, his new album “Slim Shady EP”, recorded in the spring of the year, was his mood.

The disk was ready, but lay without advancement, and Eminem went to the Rap Olympiad-an annual national competition in the Rap Battle format, which took place in Los Angeles. In this largest battle, the artist took second place, and the organizers drew attention to the talented young man. He immediately took Eminem “under his wing”, and in the year the album “The Slim Shady LP” was successfully reprinted and became a bestseller: he managed to become three times before the end of the year and brought the artist his first Grammy award.

Later, Dr. Dre recalled: “For all the time in the work in the musical industry, I have never come across demos or discs, nothing worth it. But when Jimmy set this, I immediately said: find him, now. " Colleagues tried to reason the producer and warn him from working with the white -skinned, that is, the “fake” rapper, to which he answered: “Yes, I do not care, be it at least purple.

If he reads rap well, I will be with him. ”Eminem was shocked by such a turn of fate, because Dr. Dre for many years was one of his idols:“ I did not want to behave like a fan or too much to be added to him, I was an ordinary white guy from Detroit, and before meeting Dr. Dre, I have never seen any of the stars. ” And in one of the later interviews, the artist admitted that if not for the fateful participation of Dr.

Dre and a sudden take-off of popularity, he, in principle, was already ready to despair and leave music to build a career in some other creative industry: his daughters were only a year, and the family desperately needed stable earnings. Eminem and others. Dre became friends and partners at the end of the year, Interscope Records provided the artist with its own recording label, under which not only he himself, but also friendly performers, such as Obi Trace, 50 Cent, Cashis, Bobby Creekwater, Yelawolf, D12 D12, subsequently released work.

And "Slaughterhouse", and others. The Eminem of the Year of the year The next album “The Marshall Mathers LP” was released in the year, and 1 of his copies were sold in the first week. The icons of the American hip-hop The texts of some singles from this disk caused serious criticism for homophobic coloring, as well as for insulting famous artists: in particular, the composition “The Real Slim Shady” contains controversial life of Christina Aguilee, and the composition of the “My Name IS” released soon Eminem Eminemi tightly The rock singer Marilyn Manson, with whom he, however, consists in good relations, was spoiled.

Eminem - My Name is the most ambiguous video clip for the song “Stan” - Marshall beat the topic of his sudden popularity, depicting a crazy fan who killed his pregnant girl and committed suicide. This composition received the title of “Third Best Song of REP” according to the version of the magazine Q, and in the ranking of “The Greatest Songs of All Time”, she took a position to Rolling Stone magazine.

As a result, Grammy Eminem and Stan won three nominations at the ceremony. Eminem ft. Following this, he focused on the release of the next album “The Eminem Show”, which came out in May and took off again to the first line of the hit parades. And although this disk also collected the already familiar criticism for an “evil mood”, for insulting women and for the abundance of dirty vocabulary, more than 30 million of its copies were sold in the world, and it became the best -selling album of the year.

In his youth, Eminem, after that, Eminem released the D12 World disc along with the D12 rap group, and the next solo disk “Encore” was released in November. In general opinion, this work turned out to be less successful than the previous one: the level of sales in the first week was only about a third of the indicators of previous albums. One of the reasons for the cool reception was, perhaps, a more comic mood of the album and softer, not at all “evil” texts without the usual cruelty.Eminem and D12 Eminem’s intention to get rid of his evil alter ego Slim Sheidi emphasizes the design of the cover of the disk, which depicts his farewell bow.

True, without ridicule over the stars, there was still no: the clip for the Just Lose Its composition shines with a satire over Michael Jackson. Eminem - Just Lose it, working on the Album "Encore", Marshall often used drugs, and then somewhat confused in his creative plans. After recording this work, he decided to take a creative pause. The abuse of drugs awarded the rapper with an ulcer in the year Eminem recorded the song “Peep Show” for the new album “Curtis” of the famous rapper 50 Cent, and then again disappeared from musical life for a whole year and a half.

The silence was interrupted in February by the release of the song “Crack a Bottle” with the participation of 50 Cent and Dr. Dre; Following this, several more singles came out, and already in May the new full -fledged album of Eminem Relapse was finally released.

The key theme of this disk and its advertising campaign was the deliverance of Marshall from drug addiction. The artist himself described this work as a return to the "good old days." Dre and I again closed in the studio, as before. In the end, Dre will prolude most tracks with Relapse. We have fun again, let it be so. The album was generally warmly met by the musical audience and turned out to be quite successful, although criticism of it was restrained: “Eminem had the opportunity to give his music a new quality.

What he now imagined is still powerful, but very narrow in shape. ” Some noted that “at the end of the year, the second part came out -“ Relapse: Refill ”, which included well -known compositions and completely new ones, including the track“ Forever ”, performed along with rapper Drake, Kanye West and Lil Wayne. He turned out to be noticeably more successful than the previous one, and critics finally recognized the return of the “former” Eminem with his “dark, dramatic bat”, “acrobatic rhymes of branded minting” and “growing quality of anger”.

The new album instantly took off in the charts and offered both performers to a new round of glory. It is called the most “atmospheric” from Eminem’s albums - it is permeated by the spirit of nostalgia for youth. The disk was again successful, and even the most demanding critics did not find shortcomings in it. There are more rhymes in this album than many rappers find in their entire career.

” In the year, the Shady Records recording company, founded by the artist, released the double collection of Shady XV. The first disk contains fresh tracks of Eminem himself, as well as groups with his participation and his friends: “Slaughterhouse”, “Yelawolf”, “D12”, “Bad Meets Evil” and others.
