I hate his music. :nani:, :yes:.

:yucky: Eminem makes Hip-Hop look bad.

Wow, dude. C'mon, really? Eminem is a hip-hop legend. Have you even heard his music? Or are you still listening to the media back in the days of the Marshall Mathers LP? And even then real hip-hop artists gave Eminem his respect. He packs some of the most talent the industry has to offer right now. Listen to The Eminem Show and Encore. Hell, listen to D12 World while you're at it.

I can only respect someone here not liking Eminem's music if they have a solid reason. But for anyone to say that he makes the industry look bad, his music is whack, blah, blah, etc. is naive(to be light). State why you don't like him if you don't agree with his music for any reason, don't blindly take stabs with false accusations.

*blows steam* OK, I'm calm now. :) I rate him a 10. The guy is sick; there's no way around that.

yeap

7.
I like Eminem, cool music. Might not be my favorite, but I always find myself listening to his music one way or another.

hate his music becoz im not really into like Amercian or English music im more of a Asian type listener.Even though i keep on hearing his songs from my friends at school i always ignore it. :)

Not that it's relevant, but are you Asian, by any chance?

Well yeah im asian but i live in England

iused to i do and i always will love his music

hothin else 2 say exept eminem s music is da best :firstplace: :firstplace: :band: noone can test wif him
nobody comes close 2 his talent

exept d12 of course

i don't listen to any music of these kinds- rap, hip hop, dance, techno, pop. give me some heavy metal any day :rock:

I would give him a 5. In my opinion, he's a has-been.

It all went downhill after the Slim Shady LP.

I respect the old Eminem music and his sucess as a popstar today.
I don't like his new music though, too serious compared to his
old material. And all his new 'funny' tunes are just plain stupid. :yucky:

So that means you haven't heard Encore yet...

So how does he make the hip-hop industry look bad? Because you don't like his serious music anymore? And what makes him a has-been?

I have heard Encore and it's rather crap in my opinion.

He's not a has-been because everyone seems to love him, but in my opinion it's rappers like Eminem, 50 Cent, Chingy, Cassidy, Jay-Z that make Hip-Hop as a musical culture look all bling-blingy and/or dipressed.

It's got nothing to do with the industry.

Good Hip-Hop in 2005: DJ Format, People Under The Stairs, The Lootpack (Madlib, DJ Romes, Wildchild).

So it seems like this is all based upon opinion, then, right?

Well, yeah, of course...From the bit where I said 'Eminem makes Hip-Hop look bad' that's my opinion :)

Heh, yeah, that what I was referring to. Sorry. lol

No need to apoligize Mills, some people are too nice on this forum, It gets boring after a while... :hmm:

Hah! Guess I don't fit in that category. :rofl:

Heh, but honestly, I feel that I come off too strong in response to a lot of your replies, so I try to lighten up when I can. :yes:

I really don't like him !! his music isn't horrible but I don't like it so I gave him a 2 because I don't hate his music

I don't and never have like his music by the fact that I don't like:

Rap
Hip-Hop
Heavy Metal
Punk
R+B (It depends)

But I moved him up to a 2 because of 'Stan' and 'Toy Soldiers'.

Ayu rules!

:rofl:

What can i say, Em's got some nice beats. I don't listen to him on the norm, yet his lyrics are funny always!

As for hip-hop, i think it died in the early 90's......i say this because back in the 80's, it had meaning. Nowadays, it mostly reflects upon the same scenario.....women, bling, and a whole lot of "nothing".

I can agree with that to an extent. But, in all actuality, even if Em talks about the same things, it's either to amuse, or touch on something that nobody else does. Listen to Mosh, Crazy In Love, Mockingbird, and Like Toy Soldiers in his Encore CD. Also listen to some of his tracks from The Eminem Show. His tracks have meaning, and you NEVER hear him talk about bling, cars, women(kinda), etc. :yes:

Nas is another example. You MUST listen to Nas' music! :D

Eminem is in no way a has been, nor is there a reason to HATE his music...unless you're against the "message" it sends (which is crap)

Gave him a 9. cause Outkast is my fav

his new video makes me laugh, he looks so stupid :rofl: oh sorry :)
