R&P: Who here likes Eminem?
Yeah I know, not really an "R&P" question but whatever. I wanted to know what you guys think of him since this section is full of people with good music taste. I personally like his music. I've followed him from the very beginning and I've always thought his lyrics are powerful and truly capture reality.
So what do you think? What's your opinion?...no wrong answers here.
MQ: What's more important to you: the lyrics, or the music itself?...the words or the tune?
MQ2: If you like Eminem, what's your favorite song?
MQ3: Link me your song of the day!
BQ: Are you a pessimist or an optimist?
BQ2: How old are you?
BQ3: How long have you been a part of R&P?
BQ4: Favorite picture of your favorite band?

I like Eminem a lot.
MQ: The music itself, the tune. Being a big pop fan. It does depend on what kind of song it is though. Lyrics are more important in different genres.

Yeah I'm a fan. I think the Slim Shady LP, Marshall Mathers Lp and Eminem Show were all great. However, Encore, the Re-Up and Relapse were mediocre at best and extremely bad at worst. His latest album, Recovery is definitely his best in eight years but it's still not near the quality of his older stuff as far as I'm concerned.
MQ: The music is most important, in my opinion.
MQ2: The Way I Am or Rock Bottom

I like or love many of his songs, but at the same time I just don't think he's as great as everyone says. I tend to like his crazier songs (like "Stay Wide Awake") rather than his serious ones.
MA: Usually the music itself, but sometimes the lyrics. Depends.
MA2: "Insane"
BQ: A cheerful pessimist, or a cynical optimist, depends on which mood you catch me in

I've never liked him to be honest. I find a lot of his music to have repetitive themes and I don't like his rapping style. The only white rap I enjoy is Vanilla Ice, baby. Horrible joke XD
I prefer Old School Rap, and Alternative Rap.
MQ: The music/tune, a million times over. Definitely.
MQ2: N/A :P
MQ3: Victor! fix the sun - "Karma Suits Ya"

I like him. Well, more than him, I like where he came from. And I love how he came up, and made a name for himself rapping about that. He seems to have forgotten who he is now though.
MQ: Lyrics, but the music is still VERY important.
MQ2: I don't really have one.
MQ3: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=59MY6jQbm9k
BQ: I try to stay optimistic.
BQ2: 15.

First off, I love hip hop. However, Eminem was only good up till Eminem Show. Encore and everything after is awful IMHO. also, his fans can be VERY annoying. whenever someone makes a "greatest albums of all time" list in RHH, someone has to say "WHERES EMINEM?!?!?" like hes the greatest rapper ever, when he isn't.
MQ: Music
MQ2: Criminal

i'm black and that i care much less approximately his shade in simple terms his lyrics. i think of he's the 2d superb rapper ever. To be honest, i think of there's a distinction between Eminem and slender Shady. Shady is the single that makes use of the dumb voices and raps approximately stupid stuff. Em is the lyrical genius. human beings hate on him without actual listening to his songs, rhymes, and lyrics. they are too focused on the singles that the label forces him to place out for the radio. BTW, i'm a actual *****.

He's okay. Mad overrated (especially production - I normally dig Dre, but no thanks) and anyone who acts like he's one of the few good hip hop artists because he doesn't degrade women or some sh*t like that is beyond deluded. "Stan" is really his only great song, imo.
MQ: Music of course.
2: Stan
