just heard his new song... the one with the girl singing about crying and burning.
he sounds like he needs to take some anger management classes.

That's his style. God you're dense... not the sharpest knife eh?

I'll see you around in my threads troll. :D

yep. It's actually pretty interesting how he did that. the songs sung as Eminem/Marshall Mathers are usually the "angry" ones while the joke/goofy songs are where he uses the slim shady persona. I kinda like it, however it seems he may not be doing that anymore.

His two most recent albums, relapse and recovery, are definitely more serious and dealing with his personal issues, hence why hes kinda stuck to the eminem persona.

Who knows if he'll revert back to the slim shady persona, as that was at the height of his popularity when he was easy going and was really hitting chords with teen angst around the US.

Oh? I remember Marshall Mathers LP from way back when and it was definitely personal issues. Like huge personal issues that no one else has. :awe:

Emo rage, that's a new one hah.

Eminem is like Metal only with Rap. :awe:

Its refreshing that he's pretty much the only rapper who doesn't say "niggah" every verse and raps about something other than making money and doin hoes.

Edit: MJinZ - I agree, but it was more lighthearted, like ima kill kim, ima kill such and such, yummy drugs, etc etc.

Normally I dont stick up for assholes, but you try being white in a black shithole and see how happy you are.

Not a good excuse, considering you could pack up and move somewhere without anyone getting in the way.

Very true, well except the other 500 CD/Vinyl I have from other artists who don't do either thing you mentioned. The fact that most rap isn't what I bolded is probably over your head.

On his new album Em has a bunch of songs where he doesn't sound angry, even has a few inspirational songs.

Nobody lives in the part of Detriot Em grew up in because they want to. It's all his family could afford I'd imagine. While no person is stopping them, there are circumstances that are. Not everyone can afford to move, the majority of the US population isn't rich like the average ATOT. I mean this board is full of people who could lose their job tomorrow and still live comfortably off for a few years without getting another job just off the $200k they have in the bank.

Which is funny, cuz if you suggest that to the black people your an ignorant racist asshole.

I don't think so, it's not a good suggestion.

I mean the USA is a white country for the most part. If it was a Black country, then you could suggest the same to Blacks.

LOL! Yep...he's just pissed off that he was born a white boy...to middle-class parents instead of being born a poor black kid.
