Real Lyrics -> Boasts in Song Lyrics -> Eminem

A lot of rap music features the singer openly boasting. I'm looking for examples of boasts that are unrealistic.

Eminem's, "Cleaning Out My Closet"
The Boasting Lyrics:
I'll take you back to '73, before I ever had a multi-platinum selling CD
Comments:
Nice way to remind your listeners of your multi-platinum selling CDs!

Eminem's, "Elevator"
The Boasting Lyrics:
There once was a saying that I used to say
Back in the day when I met Dre
I used to sit and goof on the phone with my friend Proof
That if I went gold, I'd go right through the roof
He said, "What if you went platinum?"
I'd just laugh at him
That's not happnin, that I can't fathom
Eighy-some million records worldwide later
I'm livin in a house with a fucking elevator
Comments:
We all know that he's very rich and very famous. There is no need to remind people of that. Now to be fair he DOES say that he couldn't quite fathom it until it happened, but it's still bragging.

This guy really thinks that there is nothing he can't do

99% of my life I was lied to
I found out my mom does
more dope than I do

I don't really think that's anything to be proud of.

The Boasting Lyrics:
you ***** could never do it like I could do it,
