Apologizing for the sloppy handwriting, Eminem thanks Afeni for being kind to him and embodying what he identifies as a true queen. The “Not Afraid” rapper praises the influence that Tupac had on him, his career and even his tenacious spirit in hip-hop.
“When I was feeling at my worst, I knew I could put that Tupac tape in, and suddenly things weren’t so bad,” Em wrote. “Thank you for giving us his spirit and yours! God bless you!” He complemented the devout letter with a stenciled drawing of ‘Pac rocking his signature bandana and Jesus cross chain dangling from his neck. Under it, a message that read, “Your friend 4-ever!”
