Some thoughts…
Eminem always will be a model for rappers.
He helped the popularization of rap by advancing his own
experience as an example that everyone can do rap wherever
you are, whoever you are, whatever you have... It's an art and
everyone has the right to exercise it as long as you have the
courage and motivation.
