Eminem is no doubt my favorite rapper. I had a phase in grade 7-8 where I listened to every song and memorized almost every one of them. Even though he doesn't set a good example for a little white kid like me. I sort of idolized him. He taught me to never give up. And boy, can he rap. not just about drugs and money, too. He rapped about his problems he was facing. Definetly better than most rappers nowadays.
