Music producer
edit@FMSKY wdym Eminem isn't a notable music producer? He produced some albums for some of the most Influential artists ever. Why shouldn't this be mentioned. This being not notable is an opinion not a fact I think HumansRightsIsCool (talk) 22:17, 18 August 2024 (UTC)
Eminem's kid
editThe page refers to his "three daughters", and one of his children identifies as genderfluid/non-binary. This should be updated. 2603:8000:6D00:413:3190:4959:2C5D:29B7 (talk) 16:49, 20 August 2024 (UTC)

Fortnite.
editI have looked over the article, but nowhere I have seen has mentioned Eminem ( Marshal Bruce Mathers III ) being in Fortnite. I believe we should add this. I may have just missed it, And if so, I apologise for the waste of time. Josh.D.Mullins (talk) 10:41, 31 October 2024 (UTC)
