How Eminem helped Ed Sheeran cure his stutter

Los Angeles, May 16 : Singer Ed Sheeran said that rapping along to Eminems 2000 album The Marshall Mathers LP "cured" his stutter.

Sheeran, who has since teamed up and performed with the rap icon, has shared that he has the Lose Yourself hitmaker, 50, to thank for helping to fix his speech impediment, reports aceshowbiz.com.

"(My uncle) just said to my dad, This guy is the next Bob Dylan.You gotta let him listen.

And by learning that record - and rapping it back to back to back to back - it cured my stutter," he recalled when appearing on The Howard Stern Show on SiriusXM.Ed continued: "I think its different with Eminem because he is quite reclusive, doesnt see or meet that many people.Ive known him now (for) six years and weve done three songs together, Ive played with him twice onstage.

Hes another person I really relate to, as he lives in his hometown still and has his eco-system around him."The pair performed Stan, Eminems 2000 hit featuring Dido, when the rapper was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame last year, a gig he refused to turn down.Ed said: "I remember getting the call to do it.""I was shooting a 14 music videos back to back a and it was like on my day off from shooting the music videos, and I was like, I cant say no.I cant. So, I got a plane straight after my music video, flew there for the song, and then that night flew back.It was really worth it."dc/kvd #Eminem #helped #Sheeran #stutter #Los Angeles #Song.
