Line 11:
During this period, Eminem discovered a love of rap and would practice it as often as he could. His early raps were heavily influenced by the popular [[Dead Horse Music Genre|gangsta rap]] of the day, and being [[Token Minority|white]], he was often mocked for even trying, not to mention physically assaulted and shot at.

Line 239:
* [[Shirtless Scene]]: In his music videos, yum.
* [[Shout-Out]]: "Without Me" music video. Eminem dresses up in a [[Batman|Robin]]-esque costume and becomes ‘Rap-Boy’ to save the day, preventing underage kids from listening to his controversial songs alone without parental advisory! There's a lot of shots [[Batman and Robin (film)|on Eminem's crotch]], by the way.
