We have watched him rise to fame and glory from a place accurately described in his song ‘Rock Bottom.’ We watched his roller-coaster marriage with ex-wife Kimberly Mathers shrivel up, and then fall back together, only to fall apart once more. His love for his daughters, which inspired a number of his songs, the most famous being ‘Hailie’s Song’, touched the souls and hearts of millions of fans worldwide.
We also watched Eminem battle his drug addiction (another roller-coaster) with sobriety, relapse, and thankfully, sobriety again. The list of things we know about him as an artist and as a person just goes on and on.

13. Subject Of A US Secret Service Investigation
Nearly any artist, related to the genre of hip-hop will one way or another have some kind of trouble with the legal authorities, and so did Eminem. Though nothing severe ever happened in this sense, the allegations that the famous rapper was faced with were rather serious – after all, of all the government agencies, how many musicians attract the attention of the Secret Service? And all of this was caused by the song ‘We Are Americans’.
More specifically, the investigation was triggered by the verse “F**k money / I don’t rap for dead presidents / I’d rather see the president dead”, which led law enforcement to suspect that Mathers was actually threatening the US president George W. Bush.
