For my research paper, I chose to write about
Marshall Mathers. I chose to write about him
because he is the best young rapper, and I like
how he doesnt care what happens, he just goes with
it. He isnt a very good role model, but he is
funny, and couldnt care less what anybody says
about him. He had a rough childhood that reflects
to now, and makes great records and songs that
describe his life and what has happened during it.
