Eminem fans will get a personal account of what makes the rapper tick as plans are underway to publish a forthcoming memoir.

 

Titled The Way I Am, the book will feature numerous unseen photographs, hand-drawn art, sketches for lyrics and notes form journals.

 

Eminem will pen the introduction and provide a present-day narrative for the book, which is described as a visual and written memoir.

 

The Way I Am comes as the latest endeavor for the rapper, who has sold 80 million records worldwide and earned an Oscar for Best Original Song for his hit song “Lose Yourself.”

 

According to Ian Preece, a senior commissioning editor for the book’s publisher the Orion Publishing Group, the work will offer a truthful look at Eminem that conflicts with public perception.

 

"Because of where he is from, people think they know where he is at, what kind of person he really is,” said Preece, who believes The Way I Am will be "one of the books of the year.”

 

“This book cuts through all that and gets to the source,” Preece promised.

 

The Way I Am is set to be published on Oct. 16.

Over 80 Million Albums sold.....Just killing the music industry....and to top it off...even if his album ain't that good we are still going to buy it why? because he is different....

One thing for sure is that I honestly do not think that a white boy will ever be able to replace Em in the future...He came into the industry at the perfect time....

He can write books and they will be sold globally...This book is going to sell MILLIONS....Just like when he releases his new album....Come on EM release that album....you got us waiting to buy the album...
