Finesse2Tymes compared problems with his mother to Eminem’s relationship with his late mother, Debbie Nelson, in a recent freestyle.

The Memphis rapper’s mother, Pluria Alexander, recently launched a GoFundMe campaign after being threatened with eviction. In the fundraiser’s description, Alexander wrote that her son, real name Ricky Hampton, had paid her housing before the two had a falling out.

“This is the third time my son’s actions have left me homeless, and each time it becomes harder to recover,” Alexander wrote.

After being slammed online for the estrangement, Finesse responded with a freestyle on Saturday (August 9), where he rapped, “Five years, relatives, family problems, now I feel like Eminem.”

The rapper also called himself “paranoid” with “trust issues” and further rapped about distrust and being previously incarcerated.

“I learned how to turn pain into profit 🩸🪶Ps: I wasn’t finish I just Couldn’t control my emotions at end but yaw get it tho 💯🤲🏽” he captioned the post.

Although Eminem and his mother reconciled before her death in December 2024, their relationship was strained throughout his childhood and early career. The 15-time Grammy winner opened up about their estrangement in songs like 2002’s “Cleanin’ Out My Closet,” in which he accused her of having Munchausen syndrome by proxy.

Three years before, Nelson sued her son for $10 million, accusing him of defamatory lyrics about her alleged drug use in his breakthrough hit “My Name Is.” He would respond viciously on his next album (“My fuckin’ b**chsmom’s sued me for ten million/She must want a dollar for every pill I been stealin’“), but would eventually apologize on his 2014 song “Headlights,” with the music video depicting them in an embrace.

Debbie Nelson died of complications from advanced lung cancer.
