I would've loved to be a fly on the wall when Eminem heard his album got jacked, him being such an anti-music sharer and all. Hahaha... the cruel, bitter irony! You gotta love it.

First off.... you guys dont know what the hell your talking about.

1. Try to find some of your gay music, the thing is most of your shit you probably can't find because no one likes it, or cares to post it. BILLIONS of fans like eminem, therefor they took the time to get his shit out there.

2. Hes a white trash wannabe? Eminem has paved the road for all the rappers to follow... they only WISH they could be as good as him. In a matter of a few years he has come to, and surpased the rappers who have run the game since the beginning, SINGLE HANDEDLY.

3. About being a fly, yea I'd like to be a fly on the wall too, because being in his presence would be an honor. Yea it sucks his cd was leaked, but I'm guilty of taking it too, but I still plan on giving him his well deserved 14 dollars when the cd comes out, just cant wait.

IF EMINEM SUCKS SO MUCH WHY HAS HE BEEN THE NUMBER 1 RAPPER FOR YEARS? AND ON TOP OF THAT, HE HASNT EVEN MADE A CD IN OVER A YEAR AND HE STILL TOPS THE CHARTS WITH HIS LITTLE SONGS HE DECIDES TO THROW UP IN NO TIME.

he is the number 1 rapper because of morons like you, big niggy, that heap your hard earned money at his feet so he can buy more writers and video producers and churn out more bullshit than those without the money. Same as in politics, if you didn't see an ad with nader in it then you probably didn't vote for him and so long as morons like you exist, without any music appreciation at all, then eminem will remain number 1 and he thanks you. Not that rap is my thing but there are MANY better rappers than this idiot, yet still not a one of them deserve my money. Anyone can rhyme and play with their little nuts on stage, but true musicianship is earned, not bought.

Because he is WHITE, and white america loves WHITE!

ever heard of chart fixing? or how labels pay radio stations to play certain songs more than others? (which they are currently under investigation for)

I like a lot of eminem songs but i dont by any means think he's anywhere near the best artist in the world because, quite simply, he's saying the same shit over and over again. Even on encore which ive listened to, there's too much stuff we've heard already, even herbsman here, who usually likes eminem stuff said he was very disappointed with encore.

I couldn't be more pleased to see this album get jacked. You got rappers whos lyrics are negative, always killing, dealing, pimpin' bleh. They got an attitude of "you can't touch me". I love the sound and beat of rap, I hate the lyrics! I can't stand to listen to eminem, though his sound is good, the lyrics are ridiculous. How about rapping about some positve things, so the kiddies will quit wanting to punch their moms and sisters and maybe help them out or go get an education instead of smoking pot and banging hoes. OH! wait that would step the bounds of freedom of speech and thus cause a more moral world. If media wants to turn the world into a world where nobody cares only about their money, screw any girl, knock her up...give her the title "my baby mamma" and all is ok, bleh its a path to destruction. Rapper's are immature, its a shame cause the talent is there. </rant>

They ARE positive lyric rappers about, many of them, its just the record labels won't aggressive promote them. It's better for the bottom line for them to promote hate-gangsta lyric stuff than to promote the real shit.

Try listening to The Roots, Common, De la Soul, Tribe, etc.

But most Rappers at some point in their career have to put out the hate lyrics thing to make money i.e Nas, Ras Kass, even ol' Jigga.

It's a sad world we live in when some of our socially conscious and brilliant rappers, like Ras Kass, has to completely change his "positive" stance to feed his family.

Maybe he's just one of the best rappers the world has ever heard. Your all jealous. Get a life and stop bitching about race on the forums.

peace.

What I find amusing about the whole thing is that the people who promote killing,degrading women,stealing, and general anarchy in their lyrics are now bitching about illegal downloads.

All you faggot mutha fuckas don't be dissin my home dawg like that... Em's my brutha, and u be talkin that kinda shit, I'ma pop a cap in ur ass! He's such a good rapper and all his lines are original. I don't know what kind of shitty ass music u listen to....punk, country, gospel....all of that shit sucks. And even if you listen to rap, you should probably go jump off a bridge or sumthin for not loving Shady's beats and rhymes...He is better than anything you listen to and better than anything you think is better. SO SHUT THE FUCK UP! EMINEM RULES AND YOU SUCK IF YOU THINK OTHERWISE!!!

Shut up. You are talkin so much $hit. I'm a rap fan and don't listen to much else. As far as Eminem is concerned he sold out after making 8 Mile. His first 3 albums were good but now he's a sell out. He's been messing with 2Pacs beats and created a piece of crap album in Loyal to the Game. Having Elton John on Ghetto Gospel is a serious insult into Pacs music. Its bad enuff having that G-Unit crap said every 5 seconds but this takes the toll. I'm sorry but it's true. I liked the Eminem of 5 years ago when he used to offend at least 1 person in every song he did and dis groups like N*Sync and Backstret Boys. That Eminem has unfortunately died. If you wanna talk about great rappers talk bout Pac, BIG, Snooo, Dre and the rest of them players from the early to mid 90's.



R.I.P. 2Pac, Eazy-E, Biggie, Big L, Big Pun, Mac Dre, Aaliyah, Left Eye and all the other fallen soldiers

First you say: "He's been messing with 2Pacs beats and created a piece of crap album in Loyal to the Game." But then you go on to say: "If you wanna talk about great rappers talk bout Pac....." I just don't understand what you're saying. I own Loyal To The Game and I think Em did a great job with this album. He is featured in 2 of the songs and he had a hand in some others. On a different note, I think Eminem's The Eminem Show and Encore are his best albums. I liked his first 2, but these deffinately top my charts (and the bilboard charts also if you didn't notice). Everything in rap doesn't always need to be about drugs, sex, and killing people, and Eminem does a great job entertaining listeners in a different and better way!
p.s. WHATS WITH HOMER SIMPSON? HE HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH ANY OF THIS!!

Eminem (NOT M&M!!!) isn't white trash...Do you even know the meaning of White Trash?? I don't think so, cuz Eminem deffinetely isn't!!! So Hailey is a spoiled bitch huh? I dont think so.... Her parents love her and her dad loves her so much that he keeps her safe however he can...that's not spoiled. Check your facts bro!
