I was thinking about the documentary on eminem.. the rapper.. that I watched the other day... it came out in 2004. They interviewed his mother and grandmother.. they did not seem like very nice people.

During the beginning of the documentary, his grandmother discussed how she told her mother that she was going to hell for the way that she treated her growing up... her mother, the way I took it, wanted validation that she was a good mother as she laid on her deathbed.. Eminem's grandmother would not give it to her. that really really bothered me. she just seemed so cold.

closer to the end, the interviewer said that she looks like Aubrey hepburn.. She replied "I don't want to look like Aubrey Hepburn. People have said I looked like Reba Mcantire..."

His mother seemed very cold and distant as well... It really made me appreciate my family. I never felt unloved by anyone in my family..

When this was filmed in 2004, His mom was almost my age... She was born in 1955 and was 49 years old.. I looked to see if his grandmother was still alive but couldn't find anything.

I just got the watching "Biggie: The Life of Notorious B.I.G. | Full Episode | A&E" on YouTube. I was on a roller coaster of emotions while watching it. There were a lot of details I wasn't aware of... and I had no idea what a positive and loving attitude he had about life.

I believe this came out in 2017 on the A&E Network. I read an article about where he grew up in Brooklyn... That his childhood home in Brooklyn was selling for $725k... But the listing made no mention that it was once home to a famous rapper. The journalist contacted the agent and she basically snubbed him... This was back in 2013....Another person that was asked about him said that noone knows him anymore and that he's not important.. I just find that very hard to believe.

I'm guessing Brooklyn has gentrified a lot, which really bothers me... People being pushed out of their homes... It just really does..

Anyway, I really enjoyed watching this.
