Debbie Nelson, the single mother of rapper Eminem whose rocky relationship with her son was known widely through his hit song lyrics, has died. She was 69.
Eminem's longtime representative Dennis Dennehy confirmed Nelson's death in an email on Tuesday. He did not provide a cause of death, although Nelson had battled lung cancer.
Nelson was born in 1955 on a military base in Kansas. Her fraught relationship with her son, whose real name is Marshall Mathers III, has been no secret since the Detroit rapper became a star.
Eminem has disparaged his mother in songs such as the 2002 single «Cleaning Out My Closet.» Eminem sings: «Witnessin' your mama poppin' prescription pills in the kitchen.… My whole life I was made to believe I was sick when I wasn't.»
In lyrics from his Oscar-winning hit «Lose Yourself» from the movie «8 Mile,» his feelings seem to have simmered, referencing his «mom's spaghetti.» The song went on to win best rsong at the 2004 Grammy Awards.
