Let's pretend Marshall Mathers never picked up a pen

from B.o.B (Ft. Eminem & Hayley Williams) – Airplanes, Pt 2 Lyrics on Rap Genius

Meaning

If Eminem, real name Marshall Mathers, had never picked up a pen to write rhymes (as opposed to Biggie, Jay-Z, and a myriad of other rappers, Eminem actually writes down his lyrics), we never would have heard this song, or of Eminem at all

As a troubled, poor youth living in a rough area of Detroit, who knows what would have come of little Marshall. How would your life be different without him? I would never have horrified my Mom by playing “Kim” in the house. Thanks buddy!
