Day 5: “E”

Band: Eminem

Song: “Without Me”

Album: The Eminem Show

Why: Now, I’m not a huge fan of rap, but some artists can sometimes grow on me. Eminem was one of those artists. I first heard this song years ago, when I was little, as my dad always buys the Grammy Award Nominees album that has all the songs going up for best solo artist, group, etc, etc. This song was on there, and me and my brother liked it instantly. I remember the first time hearing it was in my bedroom today, when it used to be our “playroom” with our video games and computers in it when my brother and I used to share a room. We put the CD in the boombox while we were playing Playstation 1. We were playing “Crash Team Racing,” and man, were those good times.
