Default Why do people like Eminem?

I have never understood why so many people like him he thinks he is black and his lyrics are seriously worrying.

I love him!

He's so funny. Oh man he always makes me laugh.

And he's a real person with real problems that we can relate to.


And as far as thinking he's black... I mean I can't dislike every white man that acts like that because then I wouldn't have anymore white male friends.

I don't like Eminem. His lyrics are dangerous, and I don't think he is setting good example for the young.

Well he raps about what he knows. So maybe his lyrics are dangerous or worrying---but that is how he grew up. Unless you have been in his shoes you shouldn't judge his lyrics. Maybe his lyrics should be a wakeup call for those who ignore what is going on around them.

And my question is---why do you say he thinks he is black? Is it because he wears baggy clothes or because he raps? As if those things are mutually exclusive to the African American community.

That's just a remark made by someone who can't find anything else they dislike about someone. I agree that some of his lyrics are worrisome, but then its a dangerous time we live in. The bottom line is if you have a problem with his music, keep your children away from it. Don't think you have a right to keep others from listening to it.

I don't agree that you have to walk in his shoes to judge his lyrics....I means should we allow terrorists to recruit openly here in America because we have not been terrorist and don't understand them? This is a flawed argument as well.
