Eminem dissed his mom so hard that she ended up suing him. Eminem had a troubled relationship with his mother Debbie growing up. So in 1999, Eminem released “My Name Is” and rapped about his mother’s trouble with drugs when he was a kid. Eminem’s mom denied the claims and said Eminem was actually a spoiled child when he was growing up. Later that year Debbie sued Eminem for defamation. Debbie said she was in pain because of Eminem’s lyrics and wanted $10 million. But after Debbie filed the lawsuit, her life got even worse, she became the most hated woman in Detroit. When Eminem learned about the lawsuit, he used it as inspiration for new raps. In 2000, he released the Marshall Mathers LP and rapped about his mom abusing drugs again. But it gets crazier because his mother dropped her own diss track on Eminem about his betrayal. His mother reduced the lawsuit to $2 million but Eminem rejected it. And you won’t believe how the lawsuit settled, Eminem paid his mother $25,000 and she took home only $1,000 after legal fees.
