Eminem’s mother on anti-bullying campaign

[babyjane]

Eminem’s mother teams up with Royal Oak businessman on anti-bullying song and video (I didn't watch the whole thing but I don't think Debbie's in the video or on the song just involved with the campaign.)

The mother of one of Detroit’s most iconic artists is sending out a message loud and clear against bullying.

Debbie Nelson Mathers, mother of Detroit rapper Eminem, is getting the message out about the recent problem involving bullying by way of a YouTube video and song.

Nelson Mathers, 52, in collaboration with partner and Royal Oak businessman Neal Alpert, has released the single “Nobody Likes a Bully.”

The self-described “anti-bullying mantra” aims to bring awareness to the topic that recently has been gaining attention in the national press.

Alpert, 50, commented on how the single and video came into being.

“I’ve been watching the bullying issue unfold for a few years now, and I wanted to do something about it,” he said. “I communicated with Debbie, who also expressed much interest, about collaborating on something to get the message out against it.”

Alpert also commented on both his and Nelson Mathers’ past experiences regarding bullying and how they could use their experiences for good.

“I was the victim of bullying while attending school, and Debbie was the victim of domestic abuse growing up,” he said. “We felt with Debbie being thrust into the spotlight regarding her famous son and the film ‘8 Mile,’ we could use her celebrity for a good cause.”

Nelson and Alpert also teamed up with partners Erik Bean and Steve Randel and 28-year-old Ypsilanti-based rapper Kyle Wilson Jr., also known as “Sir K,” to get the message out on the effects bullying has on the lives of children.

“We mixed our anti-bullying lyrics over ‘Sir K’s’ backbeats and it worked out very well,” Alpert said. “We all ultimately hit it off very well when we were in the studio recording the song and video.”

Collaborator Erik Bean, 49, also commented on his history of being bullied.

“I, like a lot of kids growing up, was also the victim of bullying,” Bean said. “We really hope the ultimate goal of what we’ve done truly raises awareness on this.”

One of the goals of the single and video are to get the word out against bullying. Both Nelson Mathers and Alpert plan to tour schools in the State of Michigan with a prepared anti-bullying workshop and assembly, which will feature the song as a center point to educate students.

Alpert also commented on how the state passing the new anti-bullying law is beneficial to both him and Nelson Mathers getting their message out.

“With Snyder signing anti-bullying legislation into law, we can now reach more students with our song and video at school assemblies,” he said.

The Royal Oak businessman ultimately hopes the song and video raise more awareness.

“Based on my own past experience with bullying and Debbie’s past with abuse, we ultimately hope it makes a connection with students,” Alpert said. “Nobody should have to ever go through life feeling victimized.”

When she was 17. So she should be 56 now.

That was Nelson Mathers.

No, that's her last name. Debbie Nelson - Mathers.
They are reffering to Debbie & saying she's 52.

Lmao & who would be Nelson Mathers...?

I find it odd that Eminem's mother didn't bring up all of the supposed reports she made against Eminem's bullies while he was in school. If I remember correctly she wanted to sue the school. That would make more sense than claiming she was abused herself. The D'Angelo Bailey stunts that eventually put Eminem in the hospital and gave him that wonky eye would have surely gotten her some attention. I mean, if you're gonna whore your son out, just go all out. Unless she's alluding that Eminem bullied her. Or that his daddy beat that ass. I don't know. I just know that Eminem is sexy.

Verse was pretty dope, chorus and video are embarrassing though lol.
