okay first of all some of you are fuckin morons..sayin hes a fuckin racist and he sucks at rapping and should quit hip-hop..

about bein racist – some of you are saying that you can be racist and have black friends.. okay thats fuckin stupid.. you aint goin to have your best friend be black(in this case it was Proof) and go and say racist shit about them.. aint goin to happen.. atleast iv never seen or heard anything like that.. and iv lived in California which is pretty much a non-racist state to go to West Virgina which is pretty much a all racist state
so your not gonna have black friends and be racist.. Plain An Simple

About the fact that he sucks at rapping – okay thats dumb too.. i know people have different opinions on who they like and who they don’t.. but just cause you dont like Eminem doesnt mean he sucks.. if he sucked so damn much.. he wouldnt have done songs with people like The Game, Tupac, Dr Dre, Snoop and some of the other Top Rated Rappers.. I hafta agree with the fact that he isnt the best rapper but is damn well close to the best.. even Dr Dre claims that he didnt know Eminem was white when he first heard him..so that means he didnt pick him up because of color he signed him because of his TALENT..
Hate him or Like him.. You Should Still Give Him Respect.. He Deserves It..

And No He shouldnt quit rapping – hes too good to just quit rapping.. too much talent an thats all i have to say..

Tupac is the greatest rapper because he speaks about important issues.There is keep your head up which talks about respecting black women completly different from Emimem’s viewpoints. Eminems racist degrading lyrics about black women do not fall on his part it falls on us blacks. Black women are the most resiliant most suffering most beutiful people on this planet they get insults because their black and women Eminem would not of insulted our black queens like that if we did’nt. Respect the original daughters of god mothers of great civilizations such as Kush,Egypt, Ethiopia Timbuktu and many others.

dig this stupids! for years people have been crazy over a white boy imitating black men when it comes to music, and style. elvis imitated jackie wilson, the italian doowop groups [dion and the belmounts], imitated black doowop groups [the flamingos, frankie lymon and the teenagers], i can go on, and on, but you feel me, you see, people are not crazy over eminem because he’s the best rapper, and he’s not! their crazy about him cause he’s a white boy that rap’s period. he’s a releif, and a great white hope to inferior complexed white boys, and hispanics who feel that black men are better than them at most things. their women and children love us because of sports, hip hop, movies, and rap. the same thing with little richard, chuck berry, and all the pioneers of rock and roll back in the day, white women were throwing their pantie’s on stages at brothers, so white boys started doowoping to get that same attention from their own kind like us. people were so used to seeing us dominate the music industry with class, and soul, that when a white boy like elvis popped up, every body went crazy. but he wasn’t doing anything that a brother hasn’t already done, he or she was just white. white people were so use to black people saying that they couldn’t sing or dance, and laughing at them at the same time, that when a white person popped up that could do just a little of what we could, they became a great white hope. and that’s why so many white boy’s love eminem, he’s their savior, from years of torment by black people you dig? he’s a evil clown, that rap’s about malicious, and sadistic shit, wich is your average white boy, only they do it with rock. and i’ve known in the beginning that he was an undercover racist they all are nowadays. he looks like a skin head. yes he can rap, cause practice makes perfect, but that’s with anything, but he’s not the best, he cant deal with krs1, heavy d, rakim, big daddy kane, onyx, das-efx, busta rhymes, twista, slick rick, idiots, i can go on, and on, but you feel me. it’s time to kick this fool out of hip hop, for good, and for all you racist and envious ass white boys, shut all that shit down! pharaoh dragon.

What the hell do white people know about rap any damn way? No offense, but most of you are completely clueless to the culture. It’s like me trying to speak on some death metal (or whatever that shit is called) all the while not knowing even a fraction about that bitch. They listen to one garbage ass suburban rapper, (Slim Anal) then blurt out shit like “best lyricist ever!” LMGDFAOx10!!! People actually think Em can fuck with Rakim, Canibus, Nas, or KRS on a lyrical tip? Get the fuck outta here with that 1st grader shit and do some fucking hip hop research for once. Rakim and KRS are the ones who started this lyrical shit! I bet the whites in this thread have never even picked up a Rakim or KRS CD in their lives.

Somebody summed it up perfectly already. How many of ya’ll white folks got that new Kanye or Common? *Hears crickets* Any Kanye West or Common albums? Any of ya’ll listen to Talib Kweli or Mos Def? Do you even know who the hell those people are? These are the same folks that have only listened to rap for like 5 to 6 fucking years I bet; which happens to be the equivalent of Eminem’s rise to popularity if you see what I’m getting at. Because you went out and copped all of Eminem’s CD’s and saw 8 mile, you have somehow evolved into a fucking hip hop 101 professor capable of acknowledging and determining good and bad rap? Nevermind the scores of lyrically inclined black MCs you know absolutely jack shit about. Get real…

It’s okay, we don’t take ya’ll serious anyway. Whenever a white person tries to speak on rap music, (our culture) I piss my pants in laughter. The cross dresser you call Eminem is your spokesperson. That’s why he’s the best in your eyes. Doesn’t make that shit fact that he’s the best rapper, now does it?

As far as Eminem being the best new rap artist to date like someone said – funny shit. Both Kanye’s albums shit all over anything Eminem’s dropped, especially that hot garbage he dubbed “Encore”. Anyone who drops an album that wack sure as fuck ain’t the best new artist. That shit needs to be recalled it was so fucking wack! What top tier, prideful MC puts something like that out?

And for homeboy who made the comparsion to Ludacris. Ludacris would eat Eminem alive on a mic, Luda’s got too many punchlines, (probably the best punchline rapper in the game right now) and his flow would be too speedy for Eminem. I agree Luda’s better and way funnier!

So whats that do for those of us white kids who also grow up with black people. Im from Los Angeles and i prefer nothing more then to hang with my black brothers. My best friend was murdered he was black i havent been right ever since i found his body. So wheres our respect? No we dont get any just cause all these muthafuckas call us “wiggers” and shit. Pisses me off, we should get all the respect in the world for not bein another black hatein kkk. So do i get any ounce of respect even tho im not a rapper? i dont think so. So everyday i gotta work my ass off for respect. Stealing, gun slinging, beatin people down. Lifes a bitch. But ima keep fuckin slingin, this is one bad attitude white boy you dont wanna come toe ta toe with.

Again we see how one’s race can be a shield or a “that’s alright” pass. It is NOT ALRIGHT, NOT COOL, NOT JUSTIFIED that Eminem said racist remarks. Whether about his ex-girlfriend who happened to be black or about a community of black people– the word NIGGA, NIGGER whatever is EXTREMELY disrespectful and intolerable. And my problem with the whole situation is the Eminem has yet to official apologize for the comments. He has said he was young, angry and stupid but where in the hell is I’m SORRY if I offended anyone in the black community, my fans and/or black women. Anyone who tries to justify racist remarks, whether said in the past or present can’t possibly understand the deeper meaning of offensive words such as “Nigger”. As a black woman who has bought Eminem’s CD’s I was completely speechless and hurt by his remarks. If he is at all a fan of hip-hop and a true artist he should understand the legitmate offense black people, especially women have about these lyrics. You have never heard him call Kim a “WHITE so-and-so”, so why would he even acknowledge his ex-girlfriend’s race??? In our society we see color/race and that point can not be ignored. He saw this girl as BLACK– not a person– but a color and his background nor his contributions to the hip-hop culture can erase or justify these RACIST remarks.

I just can’t believe that perhaps the greatest rapper even is raciest. There is literally no way that Eminem could even think of being raciest due to his background history and his love for the music.

i think Em is the best lyricist ever lived on earth. let’s take a look back to the infinite album i have never heard an album that has so much rhym in it. i also think that eminem is not racist, everybody makes mistakes when i am mad say anything that comes out of my mouth. imagine that you were being bullied by a bunch of kids if i were him i could have done the shit too so that does not mean he is racist for that ok

who cares what the rapper says, it doesn’t matter anyways. other people would be able to say racist commments, but once a rapper does, or some famous star says it, it is a whole big controversy. the media is just trying to start things. why can’t we all just get along???

Eminem is the best rapper and new artist to date. His lyrics are genius.
What I see from a lot of people is jealousy, which makes me laugh and blogs like these keep me entertained.
Just becuase he is white, he can’t be the best rapper..
LMFAO…. you retards.
Ahh and we now have the race card being played, he is so good and unstoppable that you jealous pricks have to try and knock him off the top with a pathetic over-used race card.
Guess what, the shit is being so over used it hardly washes.
fuck you haters, slim is the man.

I just want to say that there are alot of ppl who are racist but are only that way behind closed doors. Just b/c someone has black friends does NOT mean that they are not racist. The biggest group of overt racists I can remember was back in Slavery and post-slavery and that was only because the law would not convict them. Nowadays, racist ppl, find other covert means to be racist. And come on, if Eminem is really racist do you think he would say so blatantly out in the open, and kill his record sales?! Come on with that one! All I want to say about the issue is no one has the right to generalize an entire race/ethnicity over one or two experiences that were bad. I am a black woman and I am proud to be so. It is so hard for black women today because we have to deal with so many stereotypes and derogatory images starting when Europeans came to Africa and saw Black women. This is a reason many young black girls and women alike struggle with self-esteem, among other reasons. For Eminem to generalize about black women is wrong and he should have apologized for it and not have tried to explain it away by saying he was just young. Yeah ppl make a lot of mistakes when they are young, but everyone is also accountable for his mistakes. How can you say that Benzino would misinterpret those lyrics, they are written how they are written. He gave them to the public to interpret for themselves. Just b/c Eminem said those things when he was younger does not mean that he does not think that way today. Not even Dre may have known about that, if Eminem hid it good enough. Only Eminem and God knows for certain. We may never know. Eminem is def. NOT the best rapper. Eminem got mad publicity b/c he’s white. History does repeat itself, this stuff has been happening throughout history. Elvis is a good example. Blacks start something, but when white ppl do it, they get bigger ups than alot of blacks out there. That is the truth and you can trace is right back to Reconstruction if you want, with the minstrel shows and all of that. I don’t know how truthful Eminem has been about his past, but you wouldn’t be able to tell about his supposedly growing up in a black environment from his lyrics. Besides even if he did, he will NEVER know the true black experience “getting pulled over b/c you’re in the wrong neighborhood”, “growing up in a system that is designed to make you fail and to keep your race down”. Things like this do not only happen to blacks but other minority groups as well.

Look. Marshal is my Idol. I am his biggest of fans. I am a broke white boy who would love to get on the black mic. I also live in a trailer. But all that stuff aside. EM is not racist. If he was racist he would have been shot a long time ago for that NI$G#! comment he made on his dvd of the show. Now I dont have all off his music, cuz I’m job corps broke. But I have never hurd him say or drop the n-bomb in my life. And I have been listening to him sence I was 15. Not once has he seemed to be racist. But if you polatics think so why dont your rich a$$’s ask the docter/mister dre. That would be the man who knows him the best out of anybody that I know of. Anyway Get of him, cuz his lyrics is something kids live off of now. I am 18 and I live off his stuff. One day I hope to be the next white rapper. And I will try till my throte cant provide me the strength anymore. Then I will keep trien just like him, cuz he is a true soldier to rap. No matter what people like that other dip says. Em if you ever read this I love you dawg. And please read my letter when I send it.
