A lonesome child to a famous superstar,
This book was a very interesting insight into the mind of Eminem. With thorough details into his childhood traumas and experiences with racism and bullying, you can begin to empathise with Eminem and understand the controversy of his lyrics and why he so extreme with his music. I enjoyed reading this book and now appreciate Eminem and his principles.

|Real,
This was my first book about his life and it is was very readable, looked precise and honest and I read it in 2 days -very quick read for my standards.
I’m 36 years old and I feel a bit strange to have this strong interest in Eminem but, you know…

|Dope book,
This book rocks. It gives tons of background on rap and Eminem and points out instances of incredible timing so you can really appreciate it…you get many, many actual quotes from Eminem and others…the author is sympathetic, not bashing, doesn’t seem to have an agenda like so many others. I totally loved this book and am a HUGE Eminem fan. I would also recommend the book Angry Blonde by Eminem himself! He’s the master. I LOVE YOU EMINEM!!
