Nathan "Nate Kane" Mathers (born February 3,1986; Kansas City, Missouri) is rapper, DJ, entrepreneur and actor. He is son of Debbie Mathers and Fred Samara, Jr and maternal half-brother of Eminem.
At 8 years old, Nathan was placed in foster care, Eminem told Rolling Stone in 2004: “I tried to apply for full custody when I was 20, but I didn’t have the means.” Nearly a decade later, he gained custody of his half-brother, who was then 16. Now, Nathan credits Eminem with being a positive influence in his life. In 2003, Nathan leaked "Straight from the lab" disc, causing tracks on Encore to be replaced.
He’s released music under the name Nate Kane. He has showed interest in following his older brothers footsteps and becoming a rapper. Nathan wrote some songs such as "Slide on Over" and "Shadow of a Celebrity".
