Wouldn't really care. My friend before was trying to make out Em made up his background and whilst he obviously didn't; I don't care either way.
Just like, Tarantino makes up his movies; I don't watch Pulp Fiction because I believe it really happened, I watch it because it has brilliant dialogue, is funny, and entertaining.
I listen to and have always listened to Em because he's a brilliant rapper, and I enjoy what he puts together; I love rhymes and flows, I'm not in it for his life story. And whilst all of that certainly makes him more interesting and adds to the picture, I really don't care.
In fact I'd probably be impressed that he managed to make it all sound so real; having done a lot of drugs and been to those places myself, I'd be impressed that he managed to fully encapsulate the mindset and the moods, and what a person like that goes through.
He's an artist, not a biographer. He's a creative, and an entertainer, and he does it well.
