Poll: Eminem. Yes or No?

[Wardnath]

Meh, I'm not really the biggest fan.

 

[Darchrow]

To be frank I only really like two of his albums, "The Marshall Mathers LP" and of "The Eminem Show" after that I haven't kept up with him and his new music after from that song he wrote for 8miles which I thought was very good.

The thing was in the "The Eminem Show" he was more of singing than actually rapping and the former album I mentioned had Stan with dido which I thought was a very good song and a few other good things but to be fair he did play a bit too much on the gay jokes in the the "The Marshall Mathers LP."

 

[Nautical Honors Society]

I like him, he is the most unique of the mainstream rappers.

 

[Cody211282]

I like some of his stuff, so how does that work with yes or no?

 

[SultanP]

He is the only rapper I know of that raps about something other then bootie and hoes.

Fixed it for you. You're insulting rap with a statement like that. One rapper who doesn't rap about those topics would be Everlast. And by your definition of "raps about something other than booties and hoes" I could mention a whole slew of rappers, since it seems to mean "this person sometimes raps about booties and hoes, and other times he doesn't."

Edit: Another group not dealing with the subject of bootie and hoes would be Dan Le Sac Versus Scroobius Pib.

I don't like much rap, but I enjoy Eminem. It seems like he's one of the few rappers who doesn't just sing about how he and his homies are total pimps.

Really? because he actually does quite a lot. In fact I really don't understand why so many people give Eminem a pass and then in the same breath say they don't like the content of other rappers when Eminem has been one of the most offensive rappers i've listened to. With that said I am an avid Eminem fan but then again I like a lot of Hip hop.

 

[Spinozaad]

I don't know.

The Marshall Mathers and Slim Shady LP's are brilliant. Everything after that, I could not stand.

Not my favourite hiphop/rap either. So... I'll abstain my vote.

 

[asinann]

His old stuff was crap, his stuff since he started making fun of people has been great.

 

[YonderTunic]

HATE. But I hate all rap, and honestly, haven't really listened to him at all. But that's because I know I'd hate it. Just like country.

 

[Dfskelleton]

He's my favorite rapper. Plus, mostly everyone likes him, especially feminists.
Feminist women love emminem "Chigga Chigga Chigga, Slim Shady, I'm sick of Him, look at him,
Grabbin his you know what, flippin the you know who," "Yeah, but he's so cute though!"
That song is awesome.

I said he doesn't "just" do that. Yes, I'm aware that he does have quite a few songs like that, but that isn't all he sings about, which is the difference between him and a lot of other "mainstream rappers."

Except again thats not true you're just making a sweeping generalization. Can you name any rappers that rap soley about how much of a pimp they are? Because i'd say the ratio is about the same between Shady and other rappers.

 

[RUINER ACTUAL]

I am a metal fan. I hate rap, hip-hop, pop, etc. Eminem is the exception to this. I don't like all of his music, but I find a lot of it to be socially relevant and meaningful.

 

[[Kira Must Die]]

I love his older songs, but I don't like his newer stuff.

 

[Maverick Siragusa]

That would be a big negatory. I find him extremely annoying.

dido no offence to the man but hes really annoying as of all other things of rap in my ears

 

[Betancore]

I don't listen to much rap, but I do like and respect Eminem. I can relate to a lot of what he says, he seems a lot more real and raw than a lot of artists out there, and he's not afraid to take the piss out of himself.

 

[AWDMANOUT]

No.Know what I'm sayin'?

 

[Daipire]

Well, I hate rap.
But I don't mind his psuedo-rap.

To be specific, I rather like that one what with the guy who's writing to eminem, and then kills himself because eminem didn't reply.
What's that one called?

 

[SL33TBL1ND]

No, I don't like that sort of music unless it's nerd-core.

 

[Z of the Na'vi]

I don't like rap, at all.

I voted "No."

 

[Zeromaeus]

Yeah they're pretty tasty I guess. I prefer Skittles, though...
