I just wondering if the song of eminem= cleaning out my closet is a song made from a true story experienced by eminem himself? I am currently listening in this song...I love it even though somehow, it has a bad effect for a kid to listen in this kind of song..but, we cannot blame him if ever...

i love listening to eminem songs and this is one one my favorite song.most of the songs are based on his life, his family and carrier.there are many harsh words because of that all of them are not good for kids and the songs are not for kids either.

The song is based on Eminem's personal experiences. It was apparently going to be used in the movie, 8 Mile, but Eminem objected because it was too personal and wrote 'Lose Yourself' to use in its place (not sure how true that is but it's what someone says here: http://www.songfacts.com/detail.php?id=2300 )

i think some of the stuff are based on parts of eminem's life. i'm not quite sure though. yep, most of his songs aren't rally good for kids. which is why his EPs have those parental warnings on them.

I'm not really sure if they based it in a real story but it is possible though. Some of the scenes we saw on TV have its own story and like this music video the message is really odd. I am not a fan of Eminem though I find his music cool but the message is just not right.
