May 5, 2015 As crazy as it seems, there are people out there who aren't familiar with Eminem, whether it be because they're young and haven't heard of him yet, or they just have no taste in music. It's a sad reality. I feel it is our duty to archive this man's greatness for the future generations to come. We must pass on the mantle of Shady to ensure its survival. This thread is just some basic information for anyone looking to get into Eminem. Hopefully as this site grows old and younger members join in the future, they can use this thread to start their Shady Journey. Here is just some basic information any Eminem fan should know. The Man: Name: Marshall Bruce Mathers III Date of birth: October 17th, 1972 Residence: 5760 Winkler Mill Rd Rochester Hills, Michigan Blood Type: O Positive Dexterity: Left handed Tattoos: "Rot in pieces" This tattoo is aimed at Eminem's (divorced) wife Kim Scott. he had it done one night after a fight with Kim, assuming he would never get back together with her. It shows a picture of an open grave with the words "Rot in Pieces" "D" This tattoo is the first part of the D12 logo which Em has tattooed across each lower arm. There is also a tattoo below this saying "Slit Me". "12" This is the second part of the above tattoo. Below the "12" there is also a gothic style bracelet on his wrist which he had done whilst drunk. "Hailie Jade" Eminem got this tattoo done when his baby girl was born on Christmas day 1995. "Proof" Eminem’s tattoo inside the left forearm in memory of his late best friend and fellow rapper, Proof of D12, who was tragically shot dead in 2006, and had a tattoo exactly the same. The two first met in 1988 and have been best friends ever since. When Proof died Eminem was devastated, the tattoo represents his love for him. "Slit me" The words "Slit Me" on the inside of the right wrist - likely a literal reference to the suicidal tendencies he had experienced at certain point of his life. Bracelet A tribal tattoo around his left wrist - Eminem claims he does not remember the meaning of this tattoo, implying that he was not in his right senses when he got it done. Uncle Ronnie Eminem got this tattoo as a mark of respect for his uncle, Ronnie Pilkington, who committed suicide back in 1991. Eminem was much closer to his uncle, who first introduced him to HipHop, than anyone else in his family and often includes uncle Ronnie in some of his lyrics. Hailie This tattoo is a portrait of Eminem’s daughter, Hailie Jade, with some roses around her. It also has the words "Bonnie & Clyde", which was also a song on The Slim Shady LP, and which was also dedicated to his daugther. Before getting this tattoo done, he had a tattoo here which simply said "Eminem".
