Eminem gets a bad rap

The more I listen to Eminem the more I like him. Dont get me wrong. I would not buy the unedited version most likely...but there is so much heart to his music. I am not sure very many other rappers or rockers would be able to talk about their children and their marital stress and be nearly as compelling.

Take time to listen to Eminem....sometimes there is some really good things to think about in the message of his music.

I agree with you. I would only buy/download from iTunes edited versions (I have "Lose Yourself") of hid stuff...but he is a fascinating person.

To me he is just full of himself. I like some of his songs, but the one you have on your blog at the moment just leaves me cold...

I've always thought Eminem was one of the best storytellers out there. I like his music, but he is one of the few rappers whos lyrics I actually listen to.Maybe because his message is out of the ordinary, I don't know. Not the b**ches and hoes type of stuff.

it's official. I'm adding you to the church prayer list. ;-) Truth can be found anywhere, from a pagan rapper to prideful pastor. I think it has to deal with that whole "eternity in their hearts" thing that Solomon talked about.
