Guest Mystery Eskimo Report post Posted April 9, 2002 I find him pretty boring really, more about trying to shock and offend people than decent music. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Red Hot Thumbtack In The Eye Report post Posted April 9, 2002 All the natural skill anyone'd ever need... way to bogged down in his own 'kayfabe' Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest ant_7000 Report post Posted April 9, 2002 well i feel that he's the hotest mc out right now, when he is serious he's at his best. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Ripper Report post Posted April 9, 2002 dude has talent coming out of his pours... I do agree that sometimes he is too focused on trying to get a funny or shocking line in a song but when he is focused (His verses on Xzibet and Jay-Z's albums are perfect examples) he can drop some awe inspiring lines.

Guest Kinetic Report post Posted April 10, 2002 Aruba Jamaica Ooh, I wanna take ya to Bermuda Bahamas Come on, pretty mama Key Largo ::something:: Yeah, I wanna take you to Opinono We'll get there fast and we can take it slow That's where we wanna go-woah Way down in Opinono I'm sorry. I got nothing against Eminem. He seems to be trying really hard to get a rise out of people, but...at least he's trying. I've never heard the man mention his Bentley or anything, so I have to respect that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Mark4steamboat Report post Posted April 11, 2002 I never liked eminem and never purchased any of his albums or merchandise. the only song i like from him is on the Funkmaster Flex Volume 4 mixtape cd and its him and D12 "words are weapons" not bad for shitty rap.

Guest pinnacleofallthingsmanly Report post Posted April 11, 2002 I think Eminem is one of the best if not the best rapper out right now. The only thing that I don't like is the fact that people make such a big deal about the fact that he is white and it sometimes overshadows his talent. I knew a girl that bought his second album despite the fact that she was not a rap fan. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest cobainwasmurdered Report post Posted April 11, 2002 he's got a shitload of talent and a even bigger chip on his shoulder. I like most of his music, but some of it is stupid because he's so worried about shocking people. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest El Satanico Report post Posted April 11, 2002 I can't stand the stupid fucker. Wish he'd go back to his trailer park. Maybe that nice Suge Knight fellow will do us a favor and beat the shit out of him for whatever reason. I want to hear M&M in ten years telling the same stories about Suge Knight that Vanilla Ice now tells about him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest ant_7000 Report post Posted April 11, 2002 I feel that the reason they like em cuz he tries 2 hard 2 be shocking and funny but sometimes his 'shock" songs are really satire like Criminal, guilty conscious(my fav), role model and kill you . But when he get serious he's the best (the way i am, stan, and If had a million dollars and renegade). some people just dont get the hidden social messages in his songs so they dont care for him much. But his new album "Eminem Show" he said the album is strickly serious and everybody will realize that he's dopest emcee outright. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Report post Posted April 11, 2002 Eminem fucking sucks to me. He thinks hes some badass or something. I listened to I think all the songs that have been released as videos or radio singles and I hate al of them. Garbage. Ripper I just want to know what awesome lines has he put down cause I havent heard even one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Ripper Report post Posted April 12, 2002 Eminem verse in Renegade: See I'm a poet to some, a regular modern day Shakesphere, Jesus Christ, king of these lader day saints here. I shatter the picture in which is that as they paint me as a monger of hate, Satanist, a scattered brain atheist. But see that ain't the case, its just a matter of taste, We as a people decide if Shady as bad as they say he is. Or is he the lader a gateway to escape, media scape goat they can be mad at today. See its as easy a cake, simple as whistling Dixie, while I'm waving the pistiol at 60 Christians against me. Go to war with the Mormans, take a bath with the Catholics, in holy water no wonder they tried to hold me under longer, I'm a mutha-fucking spiteful, delightful eyeful, the new Ice Cube, mutha fuckas hate to like you. What did I do? I'm just a kid from the gutta, making this butta of these blood suckas cause I'm a mu-fucking Renegade. Don't Approach me. Everyday I wake up another drama, its a wonder I'm alive surviving this Karma If I can hold on to my private life for 5 minutes longer I might get my wife to let go of this knife in this corner Without this camera in faces like animals, with your Channel 2 action news. to follow our ambalance up the avenues. To catch a glimpse at all the suicide attempts and what we do in private since they won't let us put up a fence. And you wonder why I carry every gun under the sun. whether its unloaded, full, or unregistered one. No bullet, just so full of shit this clip is so full of spit if I don't pull it. And don't give me no bullshit, I'm not in the mood. Just got in a fued with some dude in parking lot over Kim, And she just slit both of her wrist over this shit, Don't tell about this show business shit, I know what it is. So do I have to buy a whole block to myself a frount door with 12 locks, and have a bodyguard walk me out to my mailbox? And everytime somebody makes a threat run and tell cops? Fuck that, I'll protect myself with these 12 shots. And one in the chamber, one in waist and one in my ankle waiting for someone to come to my place. Trying walk up and knock like these cock suckers are not. Gonna get a shotgun or glock shoved in thier face. And its a disgrace, Hailey can't play with her toys in the frount yard without you driving by honkin your horn. Screamin some shit, leaning out your windows beeping and shit. or pulling up in my drive like I won't leap in your whip, and so these kids tell thier friends and realitives where I live so my address ends up in the internet again. So then, I do a interview with Spin telling them, That if someone comes to my crib, Ima shove a gun in their ribs. Then reporters blow it out of poportion, "Oh, now he's pulling guns on his fans, just for trying to stand on his poarch." Now I'm the bad guy cause I don't answer my door like, "Hey, Hi, you guys want some autographs? Alright form a straight line!!" Sometimes I feel like loading this rifle and climbing the roof at night and hiding outside to snipe you Its not that I don't like you, Its just that when I'm not behind a mic I a person thats just like you.

Guest Flyboy Report post Posted April 14, 2002 Eminem is my favorite rapper. I think he has amazing skills and sometimes his verses are just amazing. I have both the Marshall Mathers and the Slim Shady LPs and they some of fav. CDs. He's one of my favorite male "musicians" (if I could call him that) if that tells you anything... Yep, that's my opinion on him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest KOR420 Report post Posted April 15, 2002 I liked when Eminem first came out,that was his best,then the Marshall Mathers lp came and i lost all respect for him,but when he came up on the d12 album a little respect came back.I hear he's coming out with a new album probably will be dissapointing.but here's a verse from my favorite song by him I been raised and labeled as crazed My mother wasn't able to raise me Full of crazy rage An angry teenager Nothing could change me back Gangsta rap made me act like a maniac I was boosting So influenced by music I used it as an excuse to do shit Ooh I was stupid No one could tell me nothing Hip hop overwhelmed me To the point where it had me in a whole 'nother realm It was like isolating myself was healthy It felt like we was on welfare but wealthy Compelled me to excel when school had failed me Expelled me And when the principal would tell me I was nothing And I wouldn't amount to shit I made my first million and counted it Now look it A fucking drop out that quit Stupid as shit Rich as fuck And proud of it Thats why... off of devils night I don't know why but that shit gets me hyped Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest The Man in Blak Report post Posted April 15, 2002 I think the quote "a shitload of talent and an even bigger chip on his shoulder" describes Eminem really well. Honestly, I still think the Marshall Mathers LP trumps anything else that's came out in the rap world in the last two years. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest pinnacleofallthingsmanly Report post Posted April 15, 2002 You don't have to like th eguy, but I find it hard to believe anyone could say he's not talented. I could makea list of all the songs that he has that make me rewind them because I can't believe how good he is. The only other guy I can think of off the top of my head that does that is Redman (Biggie does that too but I can't include him). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest ant_7000 Report post Posted April 15, 2002 yea, I dont know why people dont like him he's talented and creative and funny in his songs. I cant wait until his new album this spring or summer cuz ya know its gonna get bootleg. lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
