Who says hip-hop really isn’t for the kids? Turns out self-proclaimed rap god Eminem’s lyrics do more than just force people to have tongue-twisting recitals. Iranian hip-hop artist CHAII recently credited Slim Shady for helping her learn English and pave a pathway for her venture in the music biz.

CHAII credits Marshall Mathers’ bars for helping her learn English

The hip-hop artist pulled through on Spotify’s ‘Mic Check’ and spoke on various topics. Most notably? Crediting Em for helping her learn English.

“The first thing I saw on TV when I moved was The Real Slim Shady had just dropped, and I was like, Whoa, what is this? This is crazy. So that sparked something in me like, I want to write rhymes… It’s semi a joke that I learned English from Eminem, but really, it was just through writing my own rhymes and rapping along to the songs that I kind of got better at speaking English, and so in that sense, it's kind of burned to my brain.”
