Eminem
 
Eminem. I love him. I want him. He is just so gorgeous. His lyrics, offensive yes. But if you don't like his music, then don't listen. He creates fun feuds between people. While other rappers are keepin up the West Side/East Side battle, Marshall is tearing apart Fred Durst, Britney Spears, Christina Imawhora, and others. Some choose to playfully battle back, but u see no blood or tears. I think one day it'll come to the point where if you're part of pop culture music and ur not mentioned in one of his songs, u'd feel left out....just like how actors have commented about Saturday Night Live about their skits. Eminem, I love u. Your songs about ur daughter are just the cutest. I'm listening to you right now.


Ok....that was my random rant about Eminem.... anyone care to join?

I used to be a pretty big fan of him. Now, he's becoming so-so. He tries too hard. He makes sooo many shocking lyrics and comments that they are starting to lose it's shock value. You know, kind of like the Jerry Springer Show. Sometimes using a little constraint will do good. :D

Also, he needs to broaden his horizons, and not just limit most of his bashing to pop artists.

I like Eminem. I think his lyrics are funny. I can see why people could be offended by him, but like anything else, if you don't like it, try to ignore it. I don't understand all these activists that try to censor him...all they're doing is giving him more publicity and record sales.

Side note: Is he dating Britney Murphy?

lol, I'm not sure about that but whenever I see her I think of her role in Clueless. She will always be that dorky girl.

I also share your love of Eminem. In fact, my nickname is Slim Shaedy. I cannot wait for the Anger Management tour to hit Tampa...I'm trying to drag someone along, because most of my friends think he's too obnoxious!
Bittany Murphy was going crazy during his performance at the MTV Movie Awards, but they didn't walk in together or anything, so I wonder if they're going out or not. Maybe she's just a big fan!

From what I've heard, they are dating. Can u see them together tho? She looked retarded (scuse the non-PC word). I also see her as the Clueless girl, but moreover I see her as the psychotic girl in Girl, Interrupted.

AMEN!!!!! I can't stand Eminem because its like he just creates "beef" with other artist out of thin air just to sell records. I guess he figures since the East/West coast beef is dead, he should star something up. Honestly, if you're a Britney or Moby fan, will you really gives two shakes about some rapper dissing them?

Give me a break little boy!!!

I like the Beastie Boys better! :D

I like Eminem on and off, but I would have preferred it if the camera had stayed on Brittany Murphy during his performance at the MTV Movie Awards b/c she was outta control! It was fun to see her enthusiasm...

I think Eminem is incredibly talented and I really dig his flow. As a poet, I respect him.

Plus, he's so little, you gotta love him.

AOX81 06-10-2002 09:54 AM

I really like Eminem. I don't think his music is offensive at all. I just finished an argument with someone at work who doesn't like him. I'm sure you can imagine her views...

Anyway, all I can say is just because someone writes a song that includes violence it doesn't mean that they are expressing their true feelings. Where the heck do you think movies come from? Not all movies are based on real events...it's called using your imagination. You don't see movies with rape and murder turning away people and the movie theaters and you don't hear much fuss about it either. So what's the difference if you are listening to it or watching it?

I think Eminem is an excellent song writer and singer and I look forward to more albums in the future. I just bought the latest CD last week and the song with his daughter in it is funny. "I think my dad's gone craaazy." My favorite song is #4, Cleanin Out My Closet.

LOVE HIM...GOT THE CD....IT ROCKS.....AND THATS IT!!!!

The Beastie Boys definitely ROCK!!

I agree and AOX makes a great point about the movie thing. I only have one CD, The Eminem Show, but I like all the songs on there. My fave is "My dad's gona crazy" cuz Haley's voice is the cutest thing, and I really like Cleanin out my Closet, cuz I think everyone does that at least once in their life. This CD makes u realize that he is a normal guy and not really bad, and what I really like about it is that it shows how much he loves his daughter.
