Matt spat about taking that gat n' going ratta tat tat against the back of my hatty hat hat, but in my favor he couldn't afford one which was a life saver till he broke in with that cheap ass harbor freight brick paver, coming at me like he was welding a light saber. Thinking he's Darth Vader, but I'm greater. Using the force mind tricks on this man, thinking he had a great plan he hoped the headlines that ran read "EM was killed by a Stan, obsessive slim shady fan."
There’s a similar story about Frank Zappa coming across a guy who wanted to kill him. He had a bag of human blood somehow and a revolver. They walked down to a nearby lake and all his groupies joined him in throwing random objects in the lake. First, they threw random things like rocks and sand, but then they got him to throw the bag of blood. He then threw the gun into the lake. Zappa let him go as he’d been in prison himself and said he would never subject another man to that kind of punishment. Crazy story.

No problem! I figured the bag of blood was probably the most unique thing about the event. I wouldn’t be surprised if more people wanted to kill Zappa, they just didn’t show up with bags of blood.
A 7 year old is too young to understand the significance of death like that. He was being neglected in a shithole and living with the kind of people who leave their guns lying around unsecured. You can't just take away the benefit of the doubt unfortunately.
Well, yeah.
I read somewhere that you don’t learn to separate reality and fiction until you’re like 5-6 years old.
Like, the monster under the bed- a little kid believes that. It’s real to them. They don’t know what’s real and what’s make believe.
That was probably the first dead person that kid ever saw up close. The first dead person I ever saw was my grandmother's funeral when I was 9, and even then it still just felt like it was her but wrong. A 7 year old has absolutely no reference to the permanence of death, or how much value they're destroying from the world by killing. A teenager is developed enough to know better, but crimes committed by literal children can only be blamed on the parents.
Neither was the guy from Backstreet Boys yet Em mocked him relentlessly. Look up the background of his life. Can’t remember which member it was but he basically survived on food stamps and had to do some gruelling jobs before he became famous. Had no idea he worked his way up like that!
Yeah I looked it up afterwards and I was. I’m surprised em didn’t empathise with him considering the backstory, though. I don’t like N Sync either but that guy overcame serious fucking odds to get as big as he did. Hats off.
Often people who are targeting one person in particular like this are manic or out of their minds. You could probably easily deceive them if you know which of their buttons to press. There’s a similar story about someone going to kill Zappa with a gun. Zappa started throwing things into a lake, along with his groupies, and then the man volunteered that the gun be thrown into the lake alongside the other objects.
Edit: a good scene from Breaking Bad has something similar happen. ‘You may know a lot about this waiting stuff… but I know a lot about meth heads.’
The guy who killed John Lennon had concocted multiple plans to kill him in the past but always had something calm or derail him. Once he missed a train on the journey there and became fixated on reading about train infrastructure and scheduling instead. Another time he saw a movie in which Donald Sutherland encourages his son to get psychiatric help, and he liked Donald Sutherland, so he briefly became open to the idea of getting the psychiatric help friends had told him he needed and booked an appointment.
He never showed up because there was a two month wait for appointments and he'd lost the inspiration by then, but for a while Donald Sutherland saved John Lennon's life.
In 2020, at the time of the break-in, Matthew Hughes [was 26 years old](https://www.eonline.com/ca/news/1146719/here-s-what-happened-when-eminem-discovered-a-home-intruder20a%20gated%20community.%C2%A0#:~:text=Police%20confirm%20the%2026%2Dyear%2Dold%20used%20a%20paving%20stone%20to%20smash%20a%20kitchen%20window%20to%20climb%20into%C2%A0Eminem%27s%20house%20that%20sits%20in%20a%20gated%20community.%C2%A0), so he's the same age as the character of Stan's little brother, Matthew, who [was 6 years old](https://genius.com/Eminem-stan-lyrics#:~:text=If%20you%20didn%27t%20want%20to%20talk%20to%20me%20outside%20your%20concert%2C%20you%20didn%27t%20have%20to%0ABut%20you%20coulda%20signed%20an%20autograph%20for%20Matthew%0AThat%27s%20my%20little%20brother%2C%20man%2C%20he%27s%20only%20six%20years%20old%0AWe%20waited%20in%20the%20blisterin%27%20cold%20for%20you%2C%20for%20four%20hours%2C%20and%20you%20just%20said%2C%20%22no%22) in "Stan" when it dropped in 2000. And in addition, the latter also vocalized a desire to kill Em, in a plot to avenge Stan's death in [2013's "Bad Guy."](https://genius.com/Eminem-bad-guy-lyrics)
Also happened to John earlier if you watch the Imagine documentary. This guy was very pacified, though. He just wanted to ask John why he wrote songs about his life and whether he was psychic. John let him in the house, gave him food and tea, then let him go on his merry way. He was a very kind man at times.
It could be that John was just trying to be compassionate to an unwell guy; however, if an unhinged person breaks into your house, making sure they're calm, redirecting their attention, and leaving them with a good impression of you can also be a survival mechanism.
The most important part is redirecting attention. We can only concentrate on something like seven things at one time so it’s quite easy to confuse people. Magicians basically do it all the time, as do pickpockets. I’ve been threatened by someone before and just started talking gibberish, moving my arms around in weird ways (I do a clockwise circle with one and anti clockwise with the other), blinking like crazy and sticking my tongue out. It confuses the person so much but it can also aggravate them. It’s normally a last ditch method.
I think it’s why karate people yell HAYAAAAAGH! It’s really distracting. I also once started singing while in a fight to distract the person. I did it in a crazy falsetto voice and they started laughing so the fight eventually stopped because they were doubled over. That shit terrifies me though.
A set of Eminem lyrics that sprang to mind is “They say music can alter moods and talk to you/ Can it load a gun up for you and cock it too?/ Well, if it can, then the next time you assault a dude/ Just tell the judge it was my fault and I’ll get sued.”
A song in which Matthew details sneaking around the back of the house with no security issue before coming face to face with Eminem - just as the real attempt happened.
Woah I never made that connection. I can imagine Marshall must have been freaked out when he realized that (on top of being freaked out from waking up to a stranger trying to murder him)
Listen to me, why you be twitchin and itchin to get in this kitchen
When I’m just snoozin and quit the booze ‘n the news is wishin to get views off a loser or possible methamphetamine using hick who’s ticked off or got ticks and whippin bricks like he’s Rick Ross but he’s just lost again and it’s gonna cost him when he flees and gets accosted by all the police officers in Michigan. Bapkins.
If you don't recognize Em carrying on the Bokononist legacy then you don't have eyes to see legacies with.
You have legacy-lies 😐 instead of legacy-eyes👓
That guy must not listen to much 2 Chainz. 2C will rhyme Ferrari and Banana but put so much swag in it you’re like yeah okay I can see that. Edit before anyone gets it twisted, 2 Chainz is one of my favorite rappers and for the previously mentioned reason his occasionally disjointed rhymes doesn’t bother me like most.
This seems like a textbook case where bail wouldn't be offered. Dude was a risk to himself and others, was likely to commit another crime if free during the trial, and seemed out of touch with reality enough that he may not have shown up to his court dates.
nah, we want to encourage people to stop and think twice. if he were facing a lengthy sentence the moment he broke in, it's harder for Em to say "look, it's not too late. reconsider."
he also wasn't armed, which is really important.
This guy was actually born without arms which is why he was so angry at the world. He was wielding the bricklayer with his toes, a feat he’d managed to accomplish due to years of not having hands to grip things. It’s true that he seemed angry at the world on first sight but in reality he was completely ‘armless.
Bruh, my unarmed and nice friend (aged 19) got murdered by some dude (aged 36) who brought a machete to a late teenagers party party and slashed him across the throat with it.
MF was eligible for parole 4 fucking years after being found guilty.
Legit actually just straight up murdered someone and out within 5 years including the trial which said he was guilty without a doubt.
How the fuck. The only way I can see sentence being that low is if it was involuntary? Like the guy was swinging the weapon around recklessly and your friend happened to be in the vicinity. Otherwise, 5 years a damned joke for premeditated murder.
Our justice system makes no sense.
Most drug dealers get a significantly worse sentence than \*actual murderers\*.
Murderers usually weasel their way out of significant time by arguing that it was a "crime of passion" or caused by some mental illness.
This may shock you but merely telling someone you have the intention of killing them, even while holding a weapon, is not actual legal indication you have intention to kill them. It is considered assault however.
Well, it sounds a lot like Eminem put a good word in for him.
I suspect Eminem and his would-be attacker came to some sort of agreement that if he turns himself in, there will be minimum punishment.
I mean, he was still charged by the police, but they went pretty easy on him.
Eminem must be ultra charismatic to get a man intending to kill him to voluntarily turn himself in.
10 points in the charisma stat.
Slim Shady, since the beginning, was a fictional character.
Nearly all rappers, more or less, play a fictional character.
What you think Eminem is actually some hardcore thug out there killing people?
I don't think any big name rappers have been \*actual thugs\* since the mid 90s.
I think after the Biggy/Tupac situation, they made sure that the "thug life" was just confined to the stage.
He was going to kill him by building bricks in all his doorways so he couldn’t get out of the house anymore. Nobody would be any the wiser. He only brought one brick which is why his sentence was reduced.
I commented about this over on r/eminem about how the guy’s name was Matthew and was 26 years old and the invasion happened in 2020, the song “Stan” released in 2000 where Eminem says “Matthew, that’s my little brother man, he’s only 6 years years.” I wonder if it was intentional or not.
524 days of jail and 5 years probation honestly seems light for attempted murder and home invasion. Ariana Grande had a stalker break into her home with a knife in 2022 and was sentenced to over 3 years.
It’s possible and an example of salience. A person who was called Matthew and six who heard that would think ‘wow, maybe that could be written about me!’ When someone has delusions of reference, that ‘maybe’ isn’t really understood by the brain due to a dopamine issue and therefore they think ‘wow, that IS me’.
It's light because he didn't actually commit attempted murder, since he was talked down before ever actually trying to attack Eminem. He pleaded no contest to second-degree home invasion, otherwise he was to be charged with first-degree home invasion, malicious destruction of property, and assault of a jail employee (presumably happened while he was locked up before/during the trial).
Meet Matthew, twenty six years old, fed up with life and the way things are going…
All right, calm down, relax, start breathing Fuck that shit you just caught Eminem sleeping
Before you go committing nonsense, you gotta think about the consequence
Who are you?
I’m your mothafuckin conscience!
That’s nonsense
Go in get after the money then run to ja rule's crib
And borrow a damn dress and one of his blonde wigs

I'm honestly not sure if this is a real lyric, or you just made it up.
I just made it up as I pooped at work. Lol

This was actually incredible
That’s my little brother man
What she tripped, fell, and landed on his dick?
you don't Wanna fuck with shady. Cause why? Cause Shady Will talk you down into police custody
I know he started at a rough place in life, but Eminem has become a genuinely decent guy.

He spent 10 days in a county jail. Still..... good on him.

No problem! I figured the bag of blood was probably the most unique thing about the event. I wouldn’t be surprised if more people wanted to kill Zappa, they just didn’t show up with bags of blood.
It’s almost as if many people who commit crimes aren’t evil, but are actually just a product of their environment.
Some people. Some people are evil and will actively destroy any environment you put them into.
I gotta wonder about that 7 year old kid that stole his father's gun and went and murdered a dude for no reason
A 7 year old is too young to understand the significance of death like that. He was being neglected in a shithole and living with the kind of people who leave their guns lying around unsecured. You can't just take away the benefit of the doubt unfortunately.
What do you mean "of death like that"? Murdering or the idea of it being irreversible?
Well, yeah. I read somewhere that you don’t learn to separate reality and fiction until you’re like 5-6 years old. Like, the monster under the bed- a little kid believes that. It’s real to them. They don’t know what’s real and what’s make believe.

Nah I'm straight evil
Is that the opposite queer evil?

He was always a decent guy at worst
He wasn’t born into a rich family unlike most famous people. That might have something to do with it.
I feel like it's about half that are born rich. That's not to say the other half all come from poor backgrounds.
Neither was the guy from Backstreet Boys yet Em mocked him relentlessly. Look up the background of his life. Can’t remember which member it was but he basically survived on food stamps and had to do some gruelling jobs before he became famous. Had no idea he worked his way up like that!
I think you're talking about Chris from NSYNC
Yeah I looked it up afterwards and I was. I’m surprised em didn’t empathise with him considering the backstory, though. I don’t like N Sync either but that guy overcame serious fucking odds to get as big as he did. Hats off.
Lou Pearlman gave him plenty to eat
Okay but what the fuck did he say to him to talk him down? The article doesn’t even say.

Literally the first thing I think of when someone says “words are a powerful thing”
Same with that one mentally unwell dude who went to the Beatles house.. you took those words to heart. Sometimes words are as strong as weapons.
I believe it was The Dakota, an apartment, that John and Yoko were at. Not the Beatles house. Unless there's another incident?
Someone did this to George Harrison, too. I believe.
Also happened to John earlier if you watch the Imagine documentary. This guy was very pacified, though. He just wanted to ask John why he wrote songs about his life and whether he was psychic. John let him in the house, gave him food and tea, then let him go on his merry way. He was a very kind man at times.

Also to stay in The Beatles theme, Charles Manson.
More like being mentally ill makes you do crazy things
A set of Eminem lyrics that sprang to mind is “They say music can alter moods and talk to you/ Can it load a gun up for you and cock it too?/ Well, if it can, then the next time you assault a dude/ Just tell the judge it was my fault and I’ll get sued.”
Holy fuck bad guy came out in 2013??
Holy shit.
wtf? This is … fucking crazy or what? Am I going crazy? Is life trolling us? Or is Mathew a genius ?
A great example of when life imitates art
Em is just a time traveler
I vote genius
A song in which Matthew details sneaking around the back of the house with no security issue before coming face to face with Eminem - just as the real attempt happened.
He treated Em's window like he reached his full potential
He peeked
Woah I never made that connection. I can imagine Marshall must have been freaked out when he realized that (on top of being freaked out from waking up to a stranger trying to murder him)
Never knew Eminem was the inspiration for inkheart.
Stan 2
Wait till he hears about the upcoming death of Slim Shady
He must've started rhyming orange with door hinge, and it was too much for the attacker. It doesn't only work on Anderson Cooper.
He fended him off with peaches, pears, plums, and syringes. While he was anxious, he convinced the attacker to enter a state of 911.
Then he could get back down to business
To defeat the Huns?
It's like apples to oranges, peaches to plums, yeah I'm bananas p***y, cut off the grapes and grow a pair 🎵
Listen to me, why you be twitchin and itchin to get in this kitchen When I’m just snoozin and quit the booze ‘n the news is wishin to get views off a loser or possible methamphetamine using hick who’s ticked off or got ticks and whippin bricks like he’s Rick Ross but he’s just lost again and it’s gonna cost him when he flees and gets accosted by all the police officers in Michigan. Bapkins.
Just wait until he finds out what T-Pain did with Wisconsin...
You mean wiscansin
Kurt Vonnegut rhymed orange with door hinge like 60 years ago.
Vonnegut was clearly a time traveller, though.
A Tralfamadorian would see that Vonnegut is still alive
He's never not been dead though, which complicates things.
If you don't recognize Em carrying on the Bokononist legacy then you don't have eyes to see legacies with. You have legacy-lies 😐 instead of legacy-eyes👓
Busy, busy, busy.
👓🕴️
Greatest rapper of all time.
Also on an episode of Drake and Josh.
That guy must not listen to much 2 Chainz. 2C will rhyme Ferrari and Banana but put so much swag in it you’re like yeah okay I can see that. Edit before anyone gets it twisted, 2 Chainz is one of my favorite rappers and for the previously mentioned reason his occasionally disjointed rhymes doesn’t bother me like most.
Bitch I'mma kill you You don't wanna fuck with me Dude please, you interrupted my nightly grilled cheese
Em’s making them at night, I know it
*I'm making them at night ;)*
He’s on capri sun.
The man has a way with words, I guess. Lol
When you break into the house of a wordsmith with the intent to kill him, you don’t talk; you just do it. He talked.
Just like talking to Saruman.
Charisma Nat 20
He didn't nat 20, he just has +24 from all the bonuses he's picked up over the years.
He's nat 20 AND has the bonuses tbh
Fyi, 524 days time served meant that he couldn’t post bail and was stuck in jail until the case resolved, 524 days later…
It's possible they didn't grant him any bail
This seems like a textbook case where bail wouldn't be offered. Dude was a risk to himself and others, was likely to commit another crime if free during the trial, and seemed out of touch with reality enough that he may not have shown up to his court dates.
An article says he had $50,000 bail so no one bailed him out at any point I guess.
524 days for breaking in to somebodies house with the intent to kill them and telling them so seems scarily light.
nah, we want to encourage people to stop and think twice. if he were facing a lengthy sentence the moment he broke in, it's harder for Em to say "look, it's not too late. reconsider." he also wasn't armed, which is really important.
Wielding a brick layer means you are armed.
brick *paver* a brick layer is a person. a brick paver is a brick designed for paving a walkway.
If he was wielding a brick layer he should be locked up, that's some hulk strength. dudes a danger!
This guy was actually born without arms which is why he was so angry at the world. He was wielding the bricklayer with his toes, a feat he’d managed to accomplish due to years of not having hands to grip things. It’s true that he seemed angry at the world on first sight but in reality he was completely ‘armless.
There's a distinction between wielding a brick as a weapon, and using it to unlawfully gain entry.
Brick paver =/= brick. Also he said he was there to commit murder so it seems like it was being wielded as a weapon.
…this is not true. A brick paver is a brick designed for paving.
lmfao downvote me all you want, you’re all wrong smdh
If he still had it in hand while making the threat then it was absolutely a deadly weapon but I don't know if that was the case.
Exactly
The article states that he was unarmed.
The article is wrong then.
Bruh, my unarmed and nice friend (aged 19) got murdered by some dude (aged 36) who brought a machete to a late teenagers party party and slashed him across the throat with it. MF was eligible for parole 4 fucking years after being found guilty. Legit actually just straight up murdered someone and out within 5 years including the trial which said he was guilty without a doubt.
Kill him back- apparently it’s just 5 years
Fill in that tear drop tat!
How the fuck. The only way I can see sentence being that low is if it was involuntary? Like the guy was swinging the weapon around recklessly and your friend happened to be in the vicinity. Otherwise, 5 years a damned joke for premeditated murder.
What country was this in
Our justice system makes no sense. Most drug dealers get a significantly worse sentence than \*actual murderers\*. Murderers usually weasel their way out of significant time by arguing that it was a "crime of passion" or caused by some mental illness.
This may shock you but merely telling someone you have the intention of killing them, even while holding a weapon, is not actual legal indication you have intention to kill them. It is considered assault however.
He didn’t actually do it despite having the ability to and so you could argue that he was making empty threats.
It seems much easier to argue that the threat was serious considering he had already broken in to his house.
Well, it sounds a lot like Eminem put a good word in for him. I suspect Eminem and his would-be attacker came to some sort of agreement that if he turns himself in, there will be minimum punishment. I mean, he was still charged by the police, but they went pretty easy on him. Eminem must be ultra charismatic to get a man intending to kill him to voluntarily turn himself in. 10 points in the charisma stat.
I’m surprised he didn’t lock him in his basement and tortured him like Slim Shady would
Slim Shady's dead, didn't you see the new album drop?
Yah, he willed all his money, fame and earning power to some guy named Marshall Mathers
[удалено]
He’s got Dre down there, 3’s a crowd yk
Slim Shady, since the beginning, was a fictional character. Nearly all rappers, more or less, play a fictional character.

It was a jonk. But I do believe he’s most likely pissed on a few actors
Thanks for bringing me back to downloading a leaked version of this album, and burning it on a CD.
I can smell the Sharpie
I even used my best handwriting for you
"Summer 2024" is gonna be dope
That weird fuzzy smell that a stack of CDs have.... mmmm.
this was 2020 not 2001 lol
He got one shot, one opportunity
he forgot to say i’m just playing shady you know i love you
He better think of the consequence.
With his motherfucking conscious
That’s nonsense!
Had to lookup what a ''brick paver' is, and apparently it's just a brick.
I believe it’s a brick specifically used for the floor as opposed to bricks used for walls.
He was going to kill him by building bricks in all his doorways so he couldn’t get out of the house anymore. Nobody would be any the wiser. He only brought one brick which is why his sentence was reduced.
It's a flat stone used to make paths or flooring outside. Typically what you would find in a garden or on a back porch.
Probably revenge for making him and his older brother Stan wait in the blistering cold for 4 hours and not get an autograph.
I want to know how he talked the dude down, like the fyck do you even say in that scenario xD
I’m surprised famous people don’t have at least night time security at their homes
Guess Matthew didn’t write the addresses on his letters perfect?
Speech: 100
Sounds like the guy was mentally ill. Hopefully the guy got help but not likely considering this is the US.
Yeah, he was suffering from anxiety for a while after but he went on to release several more successful albums so he recovered.
Gottem
I commented about this over on r/eminem about how the guy’s name was Matthew and was 26 years old and the invasion happened in 2020, the song “Stan” released in 2000 where Eminem says “Matthew, that’s my little brother man, he’s only 6 years years.” I wonder if it was intentional or not. 524 days of jail and 5 years probation honestly seems light for attempted murder and home invasion. Ariana Grande had a stalker break into her home with a knife in 2022 and was sentenced to over 3 years.
It’s possible and an example of salience. A person who was called Matthew and six who heard that would think ‘wow, maybe that could be written about me!’ When someone has delusions of reference, that ‘maybe’ isn’t really understood by the brain due to a dopamine issue and therefore they think ‘wow, that IS me’.
It's light because he didn't actually commit attempted murder, since he was talked down before ever actually trying to attack Eminem. He pleaded no contest to second-degree home invasion, otherwise he was to be charged with first-degree home invasion, malicious destruction of property, and assault of a jail employee (presumably happened while he was locked up before/during the trial).
Did he at least play music to be murdered by
He was trying to get into his moms spaghetti
Rolled a NAT 20 on that persuasion check I see.
I was not prepared for this abbreviation of Eminem and read the post like it was British. Like OP was a background character in Sweeney Todd.
The real shock is that his name wasn’t Stan.
Matthew is Stans brother. And was exactly 26 years old when a sequel to Stan released about him.
Did he try writing to him?
Sentences have been way too light for a long time. That shit should be life.
Did he break in through the window pain?
Power of Mom's spaghetti.
He was supposed to be killed by Matthew Mitchell
Eminem, nick cage. A lot of celebrities have bad security teams and subsequently talk their way out of a home invasion instead of blasting
Reminds me of when a scientist attached Bender to a 3d printing machine to make a guitar. Then all of Benders lyrics come true.
Ahh yes the new "Fortune Favors the Brave" guy.
Someone took offense to their diss track
What is the noise that a man named Matthew Hughes makes?
Time to adopt a malinois or 5...
Matt Hughes? The UFC fighter?
Could’ve signed an autograph for Matthew…
He foreshadowed Stan
I live in this area and have been by Em's house plenty of times. It's beautiful but idk how this guy go through since it is gated.
