didnt you hear? rap = sucks.

simple.

You should be in the politics and news forum with articulate arguments like that.

if he wasnt being sarcastic, pwned

well.. rap does indeed suck, but i was looking for a good old-fashioned flame war, not a debate.

even a half-assed flame war would have been acceptable.

but now you even denied me of that.

:(

Oh, and another thing...

GO TCU!!! :p

My post was a joke, I don't think that Eminem is poppy or bling-bling, but I don't really give a sh!t about his music either. I've just been to too many threads where people think that white kids are the only ones who buy the crap rap. They make it out like the blacks (and please don't start with the racism, I'm just giving my opinion and going along with the thread) sit around listening to nothing but the underground rap (the kind the white kids don't know about) and it is all filled with meaning and the lyrics are by Chaucer, etc. After spending only 5 minutes in the real world I realize thus is not the case.

Both races listen to sh!t, live with it. I've heard blacks listening to Eminem, so what? I'm sure they do listen to some harcore stuff, but I also see too many Escalades with shiny rims and systems blasting out Chingy as well. Maybe I should have added a ;) at the end.

blacks listen to eminem because he has actual messages in his songs, the way rap was originally intended. I agree that rap=crap when you're talking about white surburbia MTV creations like 50 cent and Obie Trice, but that's not rap, that's MTV. I think you need to change your rap=crap statement to MTV=crap, but then of course your comment wouldn't be so witty and funny anymore huh?

If you think real rap sounds bad, that's your loss, if you say real rap=crap then you're just a moron.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA......using rap and substance in the same sentence is quite a stretch at best, definitely misguided, and one of the funniest things I have heard in a long time.

Actually if I was ignorant then I would listen to rap, you do not seem to have a firm grasp on the true reality of things.

do you know how to read? The op was, do blacks listen to eminem, and I answered his question. Do some people listen and not care for the message? Yes. Stop trying to put words into my mouth.

a lot of folks in california, black, white, yellow, brown, green, and whatever, listens to eminem

he's been constantly rated among the top rappers today

btw for whoever said "it's all about 50 cent"

guess who discovered 50.....yeah em recruited him just like dre recruited em.

listen to em's more underground stuff if you don't want to hear "bling bling" material, whereas i don't see how you really relate em's music to that rap genre.

open up your mind a bit, you don't have to keep everything about you proportional to your narrow pencil-d*ck
