Yeah, I'm an Eminem fan. I do find some of his songs abrasive but if you listen he'll tell you in other songs not to take him seriously. He also says to not use him as a role model. His skill in reciting lyrics falls nothing short of incredible. He's funny... "Go go gadget dick!" Certainly he's not for everyone, but I get a lot of enjoyment from his music.


dreamgurl ~ You are certainly entitled to like/dislike different groups, performers, and even genre's. I don't think it is good to blanket an entire genre as one thing or another however. While there are certainly hip-hop artists that love to throw out the word bitch, glorify a thug based lifestyle, talk about hitting the bong, and speak copious amounts of slang that does not define every artist/group.
