Is it possible he was raised by parents who really held painful, confusing and disturbing views of other young black men?
Is it possible that did indeed anger and psychologically drain him as a child?
I think he's very brave for openly speaking about his family and his pain. It shows a level of intellect and maturity some people don't have or are too uncomfortable to confront.
Don't insult the breh.

Yeah that was one of the reasons but it’s so much more like my granny (RIP) was a colorist who treated her light skin kids better than her dark skin kids my dad was the youngest but my uncle was lighter than him so he got treated better I always thought my uncle was the youngest till my mom told me my dad was the baby of the family and my granny messed with a married man so my dad siblings on his dad side would talk some evil azz shyt to him and he was only 5 years old
and that’s the lightweight shyt he went thru I legit feel bad for him now that’s why my mom would tell me just be quiet and say ok when we would have debates about something I would never take it to heart but he would legit get upset and angry

Have ungrateful ass children that cost you several hundreds of thousands of dollars
I will say this…from my teaching experience one thing I observed is in the schools I worked at where many kids had unquestionably shytty ass parents who didn’t provide for them in the most BASIC sense (no food, dirty clothing, barely any shelter), these kids (mostly black) NEVER had anything negative to say about their parents…conversely in other schools that I worked at, some of these kids (mostly white) couldn’t wait to talk down on their parents to me (a relative stranger) even tho from the outside looking in their parents didn’t seem that bad…idk if that’s good or bad per se but it was an interesting thing to observe

Ever since I gained self awareness about life realized mi parents are self sabotagers with mental issues Still love em tho 
But it was grandma who raised the kid with some common sense

Eminem is the shyt
My parents were FAR from perfect. My dad was an uptight a$$hole but looking back at things it was because my mom was a terrible wife. (My mom’s sister flat out told me this.) She was an excellent mother but as soon as they got divorced he was all of a sudden laid back as shyt. Mom’s was intolerable during the divorce and basically showed her true colors. Shout out to them for staying together until I was an adult tho. Would not be where I am without them both in my life. 
Neither one of them had a great example from their parents. Both of my grandfathers (don’t know them nikkas) were pieces of shyt who did foul shyt. My grandmother on my mom’s side was apparently a real piece of work but I won’t get into it. My mom was still dealing with childhood shyt well into her 50’s.

ya stuff like this is frustrating bcuz I have to be more understanding/empathetic to their needs as adults than they were to our needs growing up…but it is what it is…that shyt is true tho folks be saying about as you get older, it’s like you become the parent and the parents become the “child”
Nah I know exactly how you feel, my grand pops was a rolling stone who had outside kids also and when my grandmother would confront him about fukking with these other women he use to get the shotgun out at her and make her run out the house at night shooting at her. From my understanding he loved my mother and her 5 other siblings that were from my grandmother and never abused them, but shooting at their mother while they watched is mentally abusing enough. Since I'm one of the youngest grandkids I only know my grandfather as a old fun loving man that can barely walk, but to everyone else he was a hell riser. I asked the same thing you asked and people really told me that's just how it was back in the day. My uncle even beat his ass when he came of age for treating my grandmother that way.
