What do you guys think of Eminem??
I have recently come across him again and I'm loving his new stuff on Recovery!!I Kinda went off Eminem back in the day when he started coming out with pyshco tracks about his ex-wife.. He has some really good tracks on Recovery .. Love the way he can tell a story through music and doesn't only rap about money, drugs, guns etc but his life experience.. he is a lyrical genius !!
I think its great and respect how he has overcome his addictions and is now clean, especially in this day and age with all the peer pressure around and how rap artists are expected to act or behave in a certain way and don't seem "cool" and "hip" if they don't!
Oh and he is looking gooood for his age
;):D

And yeah, he looks so good for someone who's almost 40!!!! :eek:
Unfortunately, I only got into him after the MMLP, so I missed out on the very beginning of his career though (although obviously I listened to the songs at the time).
Yeah, he does rap about drugs but not like other rappers.. doesnt give out the message that they are good and cool..
Well, yeah. I listened to Wiz Khalifa's album recently, and the whole thing, like every single song, was about how awesome weed is!!
Eminem has quite a different tone when talking about drugs. I kind of feel sorry for him that he can't do them anymore. It's good that he's not addicted, but it must be difficult for him, since literally all his friends must still do them.
True.. Hope he stays clean.. he is much better without them! Lol Didnt really like wiz Khalifa but he is growing on me now !
'Lose Yourself' from the 8 Mile soundtrack is one of his strongest hits and when MTV Base did their top '100 best singles of the decade (noughties or 00's' ) that was his highest entry at number 33.(Although, I think his singles should have charted higher but they did not because as earlier mentioned these hits came at the beginning of the decade and people who vote remember the later hits.)As an artist I think he can blend humor with a more emotional and pathos side which is obviously personal. I think that his music videos for the singles I have mentioned are excellent and is the probably the best rap artist for making videos.
He's perfect in everyway to me, his lyrics, his story, his
beautiful looks! he's the hottest man to ever walk the earth
imo! I'm no love struck teen btw, my son and daughter are
aged 22 and 19! Their both fans too, but i'm the obsessed
one in the family! No one else can compete with him and
no ones else compares! Just call me lady Stan! lol
Btw i was lucky enough to get tickets for the V Festival, can't
wait to see that gorgeous man for real! bring it on!!
Youre never over from his last album is one of my favourite songs in ages :cool:
JEALOUS you have tickets !!
Talking about his looks, he looks good for any random person who's nearing 40, but for someone who's been through what he's been through with regards to his drug problems, he looks ridiculous!
What makes him even greater IMO, is that away from the music, fame and money, he just seems to be a normal guy, who's main priority is being a good father and bringing his kids up correctly. Yes, he's had his problems and made mistakes, but he's never not taken responsibilty for them.
I remember reading that profanity isn't allowed in his house
Not into the new stuff, his lyrics are as good as ever but the tunes themselves are all too similar and all seem to have to have a collaboration.
