对母亲的态度
Eminem把自己痛恨的童年生活归咎于穷困、赌博、吸毒的母亲。相比于父亲而言,母亲得到了Eminem多得多的嘲弄: “I just found out my mom does more dope than I do.”“When I was little. I used to get so hungry I would throw fits. HOW YOU GONNA BREAST FEED ME MOM? YOU AIN'T GOT NO TITS!”(My Name Is/ The Slim Shady LP/ 1999) “Witnessin your momma poppin prescription pills in the kitchen. Bitchin that someone's always goin throuh her purse and shit's missin, Goin through public housin systems, victim of Munchausen's Syndrome.”“Remember when Ronnie died and you said you wished it was me?” “You selfish bitch, I hope you ****in burn in hell for this shit.” (Cleaning Out My Closet/ The Eminem Show/ 2002)
母亲曾经发出一首以给儿子的公开信《Dear Marshall》为唱词的歌,请求他不要再伤害自己。Eminem毫不领情: “Now I blew up, it makes you sick to ya stomach, doesn't it? Wasn't it the reason you made that CD for me Ma? ”“Bitch do your song - keep tellin yourself that you was a mom! ” (Cleaning out my closet/ The Eminem Show/ 2002)
