The fact remains that he is the most talented and interesting artist in hip hop right now.
----Someone please explain this to me. What's interesting about misogony and homophobia?
It almost seems like people feel that tolerataing his offensive attitudes is cool.
"Hey man...he's being ironic"
Let me tell you something....
Just because he says he's "trying" to be inflamatory...doesn't make it right.
Who else is making good, good rap music? It will be easy to bring up acts that have made good songs, ie Jurassic Five. But right now, and for the last three years or so, no rap artist comes close to this Eminem. Plain and simple.
-----Well....in my opinion.....there has been no great rap since NWA.
And take a look at PUBLIC ENEMY...Listen to FEAR OF A BLACK PLANET or TAKES A NATION OF MILLIONS.......you tell me what good rap is then
It's certainly not some dorkus bitching about Moby.
Also Malcolm, I know what you mean going to the theater and being annoyed by the younger kids but come on. We were all obnoxious at those ages.
---I'm alot more obnoxious now than I was then.
AT that age I was doing what kids should be doing...LSD in parks...not hanging around malls and theater complexes
And before you go and start using words like "wiggers", think again. These white kids, whether they were brought up with money or not, were raised on hip hop. And I for one don't think that's too horrible of a thing. Be careful of what you speak.
---Wigger is such an awful word because it's root is based in a despicable word.....I apologize for using it.
As for these kids raised in hip hop.....Well......it wouldn't be such a bad thing if hip hop is what it was......In the golden age of BDP,PE and NWA.
I don't know if anybodies noticed but now it's kinda gotten egocentric and about nothing but gettin rich,fucking,killing and getting high....oh...and complaining about how famous you are.
And yeah...That's a pretty horrible thing to grow up on..
I do feel sympathy
I grew up on the DEAD KENNEDIES, THE CLASH, CRASS, SEX PISTOLS........now THAT was something to sink yer teeth into
All you poor guys got is NELLY and BLINK 182
