Rapper Eminem breathed life into art as he turned up to open a new Detroit restaurant called Mom’s Spaghetti. He has brought to life one of his most famous lyrics as he served close to a dozen people this week at the striking inaugural of the Detroit takeout.
His famous song, ‘Lose Yourself’ contains the words ‘Mom’s Spaghetti.’ The song was part of the 2002 ‘8 Mile’ soundtrack. It became instantly famous for its vivid lyrics, catchy beats, and a side dish of nostalgia.
The walk-up restaurant opened this Wednesday inside the Union Assembly restaurant on 2131 Woodward Avenue, which also opened newly. It is between The Fillmore and The Fox Theatre.
