The stories were entertaining but by the end the author convinced me he was full of crap. Doesn't matter if he quit or got fired. he spent a hour or more complaining about being underpaid every other minute. Claiming he could make the same at GM doing less yet still stayed. Saying he was staying because of getting his"label" off the ground.

His long shot label dream was worth being degraded, underpaid, being gone from his family, risking his marriage, his life, and many other things. Hardly talked about his plan with the label or why it was so important to risk LITERALLY everything to stay and keep working for Eminem. Yet could complain non stop about pay and respect.

Then he spent the last chapter spinning it like it's a racial thing when no one else has backed his story or claimed to be treated the same. Was Eminem a asshole? probably.. was it possible the author got screwed over? That's believable as well but the way he tells it literally makes it unbelievable and it certainly obvious he is leaving lots of info out. I was on his side until the racial, Jew crap he spent the last chapter hawking at. You could have quit at any time if it was bad as you say but you didn't and the author saying it was because of a music dream is total BS.

I actually believed the initial claim could happen at that time until the the author made me believe otherwise.

Really insightful 👏 like a window into life on the road/on tour. It may well not bea 100% accurate & there's always 2 sides to a story, but all in all was riveting, could not stop listening.

Surprisingly good

loved it. couldnt stop listening to it... being an eminem fan it has made me feel different towards him as he isnt what i imagined him to be like maybe not so much this day an age but in the late 90s an early 2000s.

eminem in a different light!
