Last night I was extremely tired after a overloaded week so I decided to watch 8 Mile in bed. I have always been a huge fan of Eminem, but for some reason I had never seen the film about how he made it so big in a African American Culture of Music. I decided to do research about Eminem and why he has been so huge over the past decade where it brought were controversy about how he was the first big ‘white’ rapper who rapped about things no parent would want their child to listen to. It shocks me how the media publicised Eminem to be so bad when really all he was talking about is the experienced he had throughout his childhood. It make me question ethics of media in the past and now, why do we always look for the bad part in something rather then the good?

Eminem literally made it with nothing, he did it all on his own and even if he talked about things you wouldn’t normally want to hear it was his way to express himself and I respect him more then anything for sticking by that and being in the media for over a decade instead of just being a one hit wonder.
