    First time was hearing My Name Is on the radio in 1999. I honestly didn't like him at all at first. Didn't even bother checking out SSLP. The first thing I heard from him that I liked was his features on Chronic 2001. Then one of my friends played me MMLP when that came out and that really got me hooked on him. I went and bought MMLP, then went back and got SSLP. I've bought every Eminem related project on its release date ever since Devil's Night.

    1. Which year was it & how old were you when you first heard Em ?
    2005
    & 5

    2. What was your first song ?
    Mockingbird.
    My older sister was playing songs on her laptop and asked me which one was my favorite - I quickly chose Mockingbird. It made me emotional, almost started to cry while listening to it.

    3. Which song turned you into a fan ?

    I remember hearing Beautiful on the radio in 2009, in 2010 I recognized Eminem as the artist of Not Afraid & Love The Way You Lie.
    I never realized the artist of Mockingbird & Beautiful was Eminem and that the artist of Mockingbird was also the artist of Beautiful.
    Until one day I was on YouTube in 2012 I somehow started linking so many songs I liked to Eminem and was shocked. That's pretty much when I became a fan.

    4. Which song turned you into a huge fan and why ?
    Still Don't Give a f---. Indescribable.
    Just listen to the song, :HomadSun:

    heard stuff like Sing For The Moment on the radio and listened to a few random songs like Superman that I saw on youtube when I was a kid, but I never actually heard a full album of his until I was like 16, with Relapse.

    1. Which year was it & how old were you when you first heard Em ?

    Umm....2010...2009...maybe.....i was 11 or 10

    2. What was your first song ?

    Mockingbird. Heard it, liked it and lost touch of eminem for a long time....Its funny...i would search for songs with swear words and so the first song then was called 's--- my d-ck' little did i know that that wasnt the song's name or that he wasnt the only one who swore in songs. *Cut me some slack i was a dumb kid who never listened to music....i started with Under the influence and Gold Digger(hip hop in general) xD:drakelaugh2:

    3. Which song turned you into a fan ?

    It was....k--- you, when im gone, shake that, smack that, without me, super man, fast lane, im on everything, reunion...a small collection.

    4. Which song turned you into a huge fan and why ?

    It was a lot of songs.....Recovery.... when i really got really into this guy...2013...Berzerk...when i was enlightened ....started listening to his songs album-wise. It went from there to mmlp2 to the eminem show to unreleased tracks...to covering a lot more of his other work....from there...it went to SHADY XV :em55:...i tried to like it....only liked 3 or 4 tracks off the album....then came the series of robotic vocal songs...of which very few were nice...then....southpaw....phenomenal...wasnt really impressed....knd was meh.....to RAW AND ALL I THINK ABOUT:cp3:...which made me think that he is back.....

    The first Em song to give me major feels and nearly make Mini-Immy cry was Cleaning Out My Closet. I remember once I annoyed my mom and she was sad so i sang it to her lol
