Detail Eminem first faced Slim Shady and blamed him to destroy his life

Looks like its curtains for Eminem’s infamous Slim Shady

Eminem has confronted his infamous alter-ego Slim Shady for the first time ever in an expletive filled new interview.

Easily recognised by his peroxide cropped hair and unapologetic attitude, Slim has been a long-running fixture in the Grammy award winning rapper’s career and the centre of many of Eminem’s many controversies over the years.

Now – thanks to a clever intervention from AI – the rapper, 51, has been given the chance to confront his darker self – and he’s got plenty of things he’d like to say.

Following the release of his album The Death of Slim Shady (Coup de Grâce) Eminem – real name Marshall Mathers – sat down opposite an AI created Slim Shady in an interview with Complex, and things got pretty heavy and very sweary.

Shady wasted no time in attributing Eminem’s extremely successful career to himself, declaring that he had been sent into the future by Dr Dre to ‘save our career’ from an older and wiser Mathers.

“I’ve been sent from the past to save our career,” Shady declared.

“Everything people think of when they think of Eminem, is f***ing yours truly.”

Not content there, Shady went on to claim that all of the successes in Eminem’s career came through him.

“We sold all that s**t off my back, bitch. Don’t get it twisted,” he said.

“You had one era that mattered, mine… From the blonde hair to the middle finger to the f**king jokes, all of it, me.

“And if we’re being honest, the music that you’ve been dropping since I’ve bounced ain’t it, for real. When I heard your last s**t, I thought that shit was f**king A.I.”

However, a ‘grown-up’ Mathers wasn’t going to take the insults and the claims over the successes of his career lying down, with the rapper firing back by blaming Shady for nearly destroying his life.

“You didn’t fix anything. You actually made that s*** worse,” he exclaimed.

“You’re the reason I had to self-medicate. Because of you I almost lost my f***ing career, my f***ing family, my life.”

The face-off between Eminem and his alter-ego provided the rapper with an unique opportunity to finally face off with the darker side of himself and the many controversies – especially since younger generations of listeners have been ‘cancelling’ him on social media.

Regardless of Slim Shady’s assertions that he made Eminem’s career, the rapper’s 12th studio album – which saw the alter-ego killed off – has been a massive hit with fans – debuting at Number One on the Billboard charts, securing the top spot from Taylor Swift’s Tortured Poets Department.
