Debbie Nelson, the mother of United States rapper Eminem, has died at age 69.

Eminem’s spokesperson confirmed Nelson’s demise on Tuesday. The rapper’s representative said she died on Monday night in St. Joseph, Missouri after battling with lung cancer for many years.

However, Eminem has not publicly commented on his mother’s death.

Nelson gained public recognition through Eminem’s song lyrics, which highlighted their turbulent relationship.

The rapper spotlighted their rocky relationship for several years in songs including ‘My Name Is’, ‘Headlights’ and ‘Cleanin’ Out my Closet’.

Nelson filed a $10 million lawsuit against Eminem, born Marshall Mathers, for defamation and emotional distress.

She had cited 25 remarks he had made in various interviews accusing her of drug abuse and violent behavior during his upbringing.

However, the rapper revealed the suit was later settled out of court in his song ‘Without Me’.

In 2008, Nelson published a memoir, ‘My Son Marshall, My Son Eminem,’ with the subtitle “Setting the record straight on my life as Eminem’s mother”.

She provided details about the rapper’s early life, the good times they had while asserting that Eminem still loves her but “just confused”.

“In my heart I know Marshall still loves me. He’s just confused,” she wrote.

The projects of Rema, Tems, and Ayra Starr have been listed among Rolling Stone’s ‘best 100 albums of 2024’.

The list, which was released on Monday, spotlights outstanding albums that have enjoyed global success in the year.

The magazine described ‘Heis‘, Rema’s second studio album which secured the number 11th spot in the list, as a “unique, buzzy and visceral” project.

“Heis sounds more like a rave than almost anything Rema has made prior raging while everything else simmers. The result is the buzzy, visceral, sweat-it-out music that no one else in the mainstream is making,” it wrote.

Tem’s debut album ‘Born in the Wild‘ earned the 37th spot due to the “physical and emotional listening experience” it gives.

“Her debut album measures the soul work it’s taken to get here. All of it has paid off on an album so rich that the listening experience is a physical one as much as it is emotional,” the magazine wrote.

Starr’s second album ‘The Year I Turned 21′ clinched the 53rd position. According to Rolling Stone, the album showcased the singer’s “musical maturity and enviable passion”.

“Ayra Starr asserts a musical maturity that be could be considered far beyond her years but perhaps more aptly serves as a reminder of the emotional depth, logical process and enviable passion young people possess,” it added.

In 2022, Asake’s debut album ‘Mr Money with the Vibe’ made the US magazine’s list.
