MacGaven - Why did you PM me the other day? Your PMs are off, I couldn't reply back.

Eli,

I honestly don't remember why I PM'd you the other day. Now I have my PM's on.

and

I really don't have anything against Eminem, I have yet to listen to the whole of his music and watch "8 Mile."

Whether you love or hate Eminem (personally, I don't like him), you have to admit that it was the best song from a film this year.

If you consider Rap a song...then I guess you're right

Apparently you didn't get the memo. The general consensus on AT seems to be that rap is not music.

I didn't get the memo either, was too busy working on TPS report cover page. Who cares about so called "general consensus"? Since when did AT become an authority on music? I thought this was computer website. Stop being jealous of other peoples successes.

Come on now. Can you do what he does? I didn't think so.

Just because you don't like or agree with him doesen't mean he isn't talented. He's good at what he does.

I don't care and AT isn't but anytime you make a statement about rap that isn't bashing it then you can expect a barrage of comments like:

What is that? Talk very fast in rhymes? We can train apes to speak in sign language, we can train anyone with a tongue to do "what he does".
