Actually I've a lot of respect for Eminem... the fact that he has more intelligence and wit than most rappers out there now really sets his stuff apart from his "peers". He's a great talent.

Of course, the beats from Dre help a bit too biggrin

The Source magazine recently had a story about how Eminem is just another in a list of white musicians who have "stolen" from black people and then become regarded as an innovator by mainstream America in that particular genre.

There is merit there for sure, although I think most black rappers recognize Em's talent.

I don't know if I'd call him an innovator... he clearly loves hiphop, has grown up with it, and has brought something new to the table. He's so talented, I think anyone with any love of hiphop respects his skills. The colour of the man's skin shouldn't matter a fuck really.

I don't see how the "stolen music" argument is anything other than emotive shit-stirring. Everything comes from somewhere, music hasn't evolved in a vacuum. Of course, Prince would probably say "if the bra fits..." biggrin

Anyway I'm pretty sure Em would be the first to acknowledge the fact that he's doing "black music" and has respect and love for his musical heroes, the people that came before him.

Agreed, although Em ain't the problem. It's the white people who never liked rap until Em came around who determine such legacies.

wow, that's a first! you won't get into it? lol


lol..well I will in a nutshell. I believe the editor or whomever Benzino has beef with Eminem and is using it to upstart his career. hence the white remarks about hip hop etc while his mag is run by a white owner...also Eminem served him in their little rap beef they had against each other ..and not saying The Source editor or whomever doesn't have legitimate statements etc but why all of a sudden bring it up and never before? Plus The Source from what Ive read is not even relevant anymore since they had some shady advertising deals to up certain releases and their reviews etc. have become seriously lacking in any serious criticism of the genre for years now.

and the audience who doesn't recognize where it came from and what its actually about etc..its more than the attire and who you listen to etc...aww fuck it. This can go on for days.

I agree. I think their rating of albums are almost directly correlated with how well they think it is gonna sell.
