May 29, 2017 nah not listening to eminem just waiting for that new em though he did have a great run though
May 29, 2017 Do you say the same to people who listen to Prince or Michael Jackson or any ither artist in any other genre? The music has old references because its from that time dumbass it captured the moment it was in thats what its supposed to do. Or you can listen to lil boat who will fade after a year and not be known in a few years time. Does the same rule apply to all other hiphop artists before 2010 too?
May 29, 2017 I'ma fan and still love listen to his music did a 3 peat on Spotify listening to slim shady LP, MMLP and the Eminem show to me his status in music is legendary
May 29, 2017 there's only a very few songs i can listen to from Eminem nowadays. most of his music has little to no replay value in this era. rather listen to rappers like Jay-Z, Nas, Snoop Dogg and others
May 30, 2017 "Guys, it's 2017. For the past 3 or 4 years, rap music has sounded the same. Why are you still listening to it?" Sounds f---ing stupid, doesn't it?
May 30, 2017 Why do people still listen to tupac and biggie? They haven't made a good album in 20 years!!
May 30, 2017 Rap music went from an underground movement from the streets of 1970s New York City to a massive force in the music industry, with rap singles topping the pop charts. Since its inception, people have been listening to rap music for its beats, lyrics and, some argue, for its glorification of American violence. Hip-Hop Rapping is part of the larger growing hip-hop culture which also includes graffiti writing, break dancing, emceeing and DJing. Lyrics Rap music, as opposed to pop music, generally relies more on lyrics than melody. People listen to rap music for its clever and poetic wordplay, cultural references and commentary on life. Beat Much of rap music’s appeal comes from its catchy beats. DJ Kool Herc invented hip-hop music by isolating the percussion on funk records, putting focus on the “break.” Rap songs also sample melodies and riffs from songs that people already like. Conscious People have been drawn to socially aware groups such as Public Enemy and Grandmaster Flash and the Furious Five which wrote songs about sociopolitical issues and black nationalism. Violence According to Jeffrey Mack, who taught a class on hip-hop culture, mainstream rap artists such as Snoop Dog, Eminem and 50 Cent became popular because they help perpetuate America’s culture of violence. Have you seen some of the lyrics? Some of those rappers are EXTREMELY talented, and have a good control over the English language. You’re obviously making a generalization after seeing a few crappy mainstream rap songs; all genres have good and bad. Oh, and not all rap/hip-hop is about crime and violence and sex and what have you; just a lot of main stream stuff is. Some rap/hip-hop is meaningful. A good example is alternative hip-hop, which intentionally aims to be pretty much the opposite of stereotypical rap/hip-hop. What is good music and what isn’t comes down to personal taste. Someone could say the same thing about any genre. I do enjoy rap/hip-hop myself, not because it’s cool (I don’t think it’s even popular where I live anymore, people rag on my taste of music all the time anyway, I’m use to it) but because I like the sound of it. I’ve listened to all types of music and I can appreciate most genres… you shouldn’t be so judgmental over people’s taste in music. Eminem is Immortal.
May 31, 2017 Homophobic and mysoginistic wahh wahh. This world is filled with way too many snow flakes. It's quite evident he does it to push buttons and draw reactions, which morons like you feed into. Go take your participation trophies and listen to a modern generic rapper no one will remember in two years
