    But why don't u ignore those songs which are in the minority anyway. And ironically which Eminem fans hate anyway hence why they so heavily criticized Relapse for that r--- content and wanted a deep emotional album. And Eminem listened and gave what the fans requested with Recovery and scrapped Relapse 2

    And focus on his classic positive, uplifting, deep, conscious songs like













    How hard is it to do this? what the whole world does

    Do you have tourettes or something? I never said I disliked the songs, which I do btw, so why did you have to post what you felt were uplifting songs? I think Eminem is a great artist but fans like you that jump on anything anybody says against him is the reason people hate talking about him. I simply replied to the guy asking why people heavily criticize Em with a rational statement and you have a spaz attack. The last official Eminem release was on Big Sean's last album and on that song he raps about both Beating and Raping woman, it's not something that he stopped doing in 2009. When talking about Kendrick, Jay, Andre, Kanye etc. we don't have to blind ourselves to half of their f---ing songs, stop being such a immature child and accept the fact not everyone wants to listen to r--- rap.

    Are you honestly THAT disillusioned that you think 300m people have spent money on Eminem's albums to hear him singing???

    Trust me, if songs like Stronger than I Was didn't exist I'd be much happier. The only people who like this song are people who's Tweets you'll find. And I'll quite happily eat my words if you can find 300m of those.

    c----.

    I get
    I never claimed they did for that sole reason It's about the entire package as far as Eminem fans are concerned. Choruses, singing, melodies, emotion, harmonies, concepts, story telling, production, flow, delivery. I mention singing so much because your average fan likes a catchy melody. So it is a big part of why Eminem has sold the records he has but overall it is because of him providing the whole package as an Artist

    It comes down to taste nobody is forcing u to like or listen to Stronger Than I Was. U shouldn't be angry at people who like the song and this being their taste in music that is just immature and almost radical like it's weird. Is it really that deep fam?

    It's just a super catchy and uplifting song with a powerful message so it's no reason to get so angry about peoples love of a song and a particular sound

    Why not be a mature human being why u always on that angry negative energy?

    Can't u accept different rappers have different lanes the rapper u named your use name after Ice Cube he can't and never has sung, can't do melodies, doesn't make pop or alternative music. Just straight up raps and makes rap for rap heads. He a legend in his lane and Eminem a legend in his lane

    No one can deny his cultural impact, but when fans start to compare him to the G.O.A.T.s, I can’t help but to scoff. He has yet to prove the longevity of a Nas or Jay, he has yet to shift the landscape of rap like Tupac or Big. No one has come out rapping like Eminem, largely because no one wants to.


    Stopped reading after this bs. It's one thing to argue against something but at least have something that isn't r-----ed. Every hip hop fan knows how false that above paragraph is.

    I've been a huge Stan since late 2002. I will just say one critique on Ems music. He's easily one of the best rappers of all time. Majority would agree. However, when it comes to being creative and intellectual, Em falls flat. I would love to see what Ems music would be like if he was very intelligent outside of making music.
