The Detroit Fire Department reportedly responded to a fire in Eminem’s childhood home yesterday (November 7), according to the Detroit Free Press.
The home, which appears on the cover of Eminem’s The Marshall Mathers LP 2 and on one of the covers of 2000’s The Marshall Mathers LP, had fire coming out of a window on its second floor, as per freep.com. Fire damaged portions of the home. No cause for the fire was provided.
The Detroit Free Press reports that Deborah Mathers, Eminem’s mother, purchased the home in 1987. In 1994, Mathers reportedly signed the deed to the home over to Ann Investment.
The property has been owned by several entities since then. In 2009, it was purchased by EM & UU for $1. It was then abandoned, eventually being turned over to the Land Bank.
In September, real estate website Zillow estimated the house to be worth $33,000, though mlive said that that value is likely high because the property is surrounded by abandoned and blighted homes.
A video of the damaged home featured in the Detroit Free Press can be viewed below.

I always knew you was a snitch
-Gerald
hello dentaldamboy. facebook chat? 😉
publicity stunt
burn down a house he doesnt own for publicity when hes already all over every rap website, magazine cover etc… yeah thats logical
WELCOME HOME, FOR THE LAST TIME
Hip Hop used to teach the world that the white man was the devil. Now it glorifies the devil and teaches people that black men are uncivilized. Hmmm…. Funny that didnt happen until Hip Hop started making money and corporate interest became one of the new “elements” of hip hop. LOL what goes around comes around tho. Nobody cares that this white boy’s old house burned down. HHDX is really on Em’s nutsack.
Fuck off with ur pro black shit. It has nothing to do with that at all. It’s just the principal that somebody did this out of ill-will towards him that makes it fucked up. It clearly had some sentimental meaning to him.
is this that butthurt old nigga BruthaDee still ranting?
Real talk, Rakeem.
if this was drake he would have to make a whole album about this inciddent. Kind of like how he makes an album for every broken heart.
What a shit hole
for real. Eminem grew up worse than most of these black rappers who claim to be from the hood and the streets
^^^IDIOTA!
Shits been abandoned for a minute, how the fuck do you know thats what it was like when he lived there? If he evn lived there at all? Oh, I forgot, hip-hop told you. SMH
its well known he grew up trailer park trash. not like a lot of these gangsta rappers who had 2 parents with good jobs, nice houses, drivin luxury cars and shit, finished school and went to college like Rick Ross and them
Can Em account for his whereabouts on the night of the incident
?
him and 50 cent burned that bitch down like they did to 50’s house a few years back
He was at Rick Ross’s pool party.
Dissing everyone in the party and went home.
It was burned down by someone who heard the new LP and had enough.
so they lit up a house he dont even own or live in? that’ll show him!

Totally agree with Reece… He always bitches about how much he hates rap and the industry.. Yet still drops shit, then bitches about it some more. Your young motherfucker, go get a degree or some shit, goddamn.
I wonder if they are sending him warnings not to come around 8 mile again?
why would anyone with money ever want to go there LOLOLOL
Eminem could seriously buy Detroit if he wanted to!!!!
Must be Matthew Mitchell, Stan’s little brother, out for revenge.
lmao good one
nice joke. love it
Detroit has is nothing more than a cesspool of murderers. Build a fucking wall around the entire city and let them kill each other.
By far the silliest thing I have ever read. Congrats for being the most ignorant person I’ve met/ heard of in my life.
oh noooo 🙁
I visited Eminem’s childhood last month right after I saw MMPL2 cover. this guy inspires me every day in my life. i love you Slim

“Eminem could seriously buy Detroit if he wanted to!!!!”
And still have money left over to buy Miami.
