What does everyone think about Eminem? He is very controversial. Here is with Wikipedia article on him: Eminem - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I like some of his songs. Although, you apparently can't be both a KJ-52 fan and an Eminem fan. XD

I think he's funny most of the time... I don't really agree with everything he says and everything he does but it's his right to say and do that as long as he's not physically hurting anyone or himself... It's the whole 'sticks and stones will break my bones but words will never hurt me' thing.. if you don't like to listen to it then don't... if you do... then listen to it...

As a mother with 2 teenage boys, i attempt to familiarize myself with what they are listening too as much as i feel the need to know who they're with and where they are. So having said that, Eminem was one of the artists that prior to listening to him myself I had been warned by others and the tv, news etc....to avoid letting my kids listen to him because of lyrics and lack of respect for others...
Well, my oldest son, who at the time I believe was 15 or 16 had asked to purchase a cd from Eminem, and of course I was totally against it, then he asked if he borrowed the same cd from his friend would i listen to it and then decide, so trying to be a fair person, I said yes. And now, well I love Eminem, listen to him alot in fact, there are some of his songs that I am not to thrilled about, so i just forward the track and get to the next song....
So now, regardless of what i've heard via people, news, etc....I make it a point of finding someone with a particular cd, listening for myself and then make a decision. Although I have not yet told the boys 'NO' to any particular artist, i do inform them of why i may or maynot like the cd/song/artist, and request that they do not listen to it around me or their younger siblings. As for purchasing the cd whether I like it or not, no double standard here, just because i don't like it doesn't mean they shouldn't, they have their own taste in music and i will honor that. So on occasion I have purchased what i consider a questionable cd, however I have yet to hear it a second time.
That's MS.BITCH to you....

Eminem is interesting... he's almost a parody of modern main stream hip-hop. I really don't think he's saying anything new or interesting in his lyrics, he just takes the same themes to such an extreme that people are forced to notice.

I don't see much difference between "mainstream" hip-hop/rap and those focus group generated boy/girl-bands.
Faith is the truth of passion. Since no passion is more true than another, faith is the truth of nothing.

He's a jackass. I would have thought his fifteen minutes of fame were up long time ago. And I don't know what he's been saying, so I picked "other."
