OK I don't want to get in some kind of heated discussion about this because it is pointless. Some people like him some people don't but the truth is...he is just like some of the "pop stars" he makes fun of.. He is nothing but a product marketing himself through controversy. He is nothing but a brilliant marketing scheme just like that of Britney Spears, etc.
I know you could argue all day that he is an actual artist that writes these brilliant poems. And I am not denying that he is a talented writer. But at the end of the day everything he does is just a marketing tool. And I don't buy it. But some people do.
Remember that time that he was at that award show (I can't remember what it was--VMA's maybe?) and I think it was that dog from Conan was taunting him and he got all pissed. He can dish it out in all directions...but he couldn't take it...even from a PUPPET!! It was funny.
End of discussion for me. I am not going to argue about Eminem. It is not worth any more of my time because I am not going to change anyone's mind...and no one is going to change mine. I don't like him-and other people do...
