      I try to take any criticism and reframe it to make me feel better. I'll take a few minutes to think about what they said. Then I'll shift my focus to what I can do to deal with the remarks so I can up my game. There will always be times where emotional overload hits but I do my best to remind myself that it's gonna happen and it's all inevitable and part of the process.

      You aint kidding about people sleeping on his work ethic. That dedication to his craft is what likely started his pill addiction. He was doing so much, all at one time, that it gets to where you HAVE to take substances to maintain.
      At one time, he was working on an album, the 8 Mile film, the soundtrack to the film, and executive producing 2pac's Loyal To the Game album. Not to mention, having to go home and take care of his kids..

      This is actually a trope of most highly talented individuals, it’s actually very VERY rare to be exceptional without putting the long hours in of honing a skill.
      Moving to another art skill like tattoo artist- no body started good at drawing, some might learn concepts faster but if you wanna draw that good expect thousands of hours and countless pages of art which isn’t that standard
      Why do I bring this up? I am a tattoo artist and taught a student who had very weak drawings skill but lots of motivation- his drawings now are good enough that people all think he just got natural talent, they have no idea he was drawing bad 2d cartoons that had awful posture when he started
      Natural talent is real- but it’s the WEAKEST asset to have for success, you better off being naturally useless but motivated to become good at something

    Needed this for real. I started rapping in 09 when I was 17 but then stopped when I was 23 because I felt that I wasn't good enough. I then got into making beats in 2016 and got really good at it. But now I have the urge to start rhyming again and this time over my own production. Need to start writing more consistently though.

    This is exactly what I needed to hear! I started rapping over the summer, but with still being in college and now starting grad school this semester, I have definitely been hesitant to fully put myself out there. I still love writing rhymes bc it’s like therapy to me to express how I’m feeling in a creative way. I keep finding myself wondering if I’m jumping the gun or if I’m holding back. Hearing that Eminem had similar struggles in the beginning of his pursuit is very comforting! - Rah

      quite a while back I got a cheap virtual DJ mixer for christmas and I messed around with that thing for months by myself in my room. I was performing for me alone, but I was enjoying myself and improving, experimenting and being serious, and a thought kept rolling around my head, "I wonder if anyone else thinks this sound good? What if I recorded a set and put it on youtube?" but I was too anxious to actually try it for fear of negative comments. Well, some guys and gals I eventually started playing games online with regularly were one day talking about the same kind of music I liked to mix and I chimed in with how I actually had a little mixer and liked to mess around mixing that genre. They encouraged me to let them listen and because they all sounded positive about hearing it and they were my friends, I played a set of some of my favorite tracks to put together. The response was overwhelming to me and it was a huge confidence boost. Since then, joining other Discord servers with one friend or the other when everyone else wasn't online, I sometimes get asked to show everyone, so I give in and do it and people I don't even know tell me it sounded great. Back to the present, I don't really mess around with it because I ended up getting into a demanding career, but I just want to leave you with one big piece of knowledge I gained from those experiences: People WILL like what you do. Not everybody, sure, but there will be people who do. They will want to hear more of what you do. If you can find the courage to put yourself out there a little bit, seeing that your art is accepted touches you like nothing else. And maybe one day, your art will touch someone else in a way they didn't know they needed. I stopped messing with production and DJing about 10 years ago, but if I hadn't? If I had kept putting myself out there more and more? Makes me wonder how differently these past ten years might have shaped me now...

      Of course I listened to explicit rap behind my parents back before I was 18, and I was allowed to have the edited versions of some rap CD's, like Cypress Hill's Black Sunday, East 1999 Eternal by Bone Thugs n Harmony, Rated PG-13 by Da Brat, Regulate G Funk Era by Warren G, In My Lifetime vol 2 by Jay-Z, and Missy Elliot's debut album Supa Dupa Fly.

    I've been writing on and off for a year. I have 12 songs I'm currently working on. They've turned into obscene word documents. Each containing dozens of songs of material.
    I am constantly writing entire songs. Tearing them to pieces to start-over. I saw a video with Em saying he does the same, even now.. And that he has 50 songs written to throw at each album.
    I am happy being patient. I'm happy with the idea of continually improving my work. I'm happy waiting until I'm happy.
    My dream is to make an album off all original music. I am a musician so can produce all the music. Write and perform all the bars. Get some of my amazing friends to feature. If it sells zero copies, I don't care. This is what I like doing now :)

    He also read the dictionary so there are so many choices of words to rhyme in a single bar. He's a genius in the sense of wit.
    Ive read the dictionary too and i can rap but i struggle with confidence. Here's an example of how reading the dictionary helps:
    Dont trip,
    no hesitation,
    no slight increase in respiration,
    Migration... From perpetration to elation,
    Im an animal that needs caging,
    You'll be left with facial displation,
    Rearrangement,
    Complacent, with your blood curdling raging,
    Im a demon perched in your basement,
    Waiting to be awakened from where I'm stationed...

    What Eminem said about going over his verses so much that he couldn't find a single flaw when he heard it back was great, I'm currently writing a novel, The Buddha and The Wolf, and I'm on the 10th edit, and sometimes I feel that I'm going over it too much, but that comment perfectly encapsulates why I'm paying such attention to detail.

Fame is right outside my door figuratively speaking. I've earned this self-confidence, skill level, keen determination among other things for the last 22 years. I've never once in my life walked away from this. A man plays a game or fights in a war to win it. Words like 'if', 'maybe' and the like were never factors regarding my musical conquest. In my perspective; this has always been a simple walking to a specified destination/location. As simple as walking to it meaning certainty is an understatement. It's been more like, 'Duh!' for me

    What's missing is that you have to be sort of crazy to be really talented at something because most people won't put all that time into practicing for hours a day. Most athletes or even famous actors have this drive most people will never have because they're a little crazy. It's like an obsession to them. Most very smart people are the same. They can't seem to put the books down or stop packing knowledge. It's an obsession to them. You can tell Em has it. He even talks about reading the dictionary a lot. Who does that? Not even most teachers are that obsessed for knowledge.

    It's important to stress that being a world class rapper takes more than just raw skill.
    Eminem was very controversial at the height of his fame the media and press gave him so much buzz and publicity.
    Bottom line is being talented is a small part of becoming a rap star this is why there are so many trash rappers who make it big and skilled rappers who go nowhere.
    You need to have a relentless work ethic, a strong marketing/PR team, a manager/agent and build a loyal fanbase.
