Em is an excellent lyricist no matter what color he is. And you're right, he is damn funny. Why? Because he can be. Think about it. His first song was funny. Hi My Name is, that was hilarious. Em' is one of the greatest rappers of all time IMO.

eminems raps are actually relevant and at least are a little deeper than screwing hoes and getting stoned, spinner ma spinners and all that crap most hih hopsters spew. I dunno, im not the biggest rap fan but i still do love snoop and dre and eminem. I dont think you can say you hate one and like the other, they all together in their rap game.

Back to the video. I'm all for satire, but he probably went a little over the line with this one(especially with Jackson's case still pending). It's the Madonna syndrome, where you get older and start losing popularity and you do something a little controversial to get publicity. BET is so pissed that they pulled his video and Fox News has been running the story. Looks like he got the publicity he wanted.

Well, here's the thing, in the song he DID say that it wasn't a stab at Michael Jackson, even though we know it was, so there's no reason to fuss. As for Em getting publicity, that's all he wants, and he got it.

I haven't really seen where Eminem has lost popularity. Every song he does or even is a part of is a hit and every album he puts out goes like 1000000000 times platinum. But yeah, he does like to tstir up stuff because as it has been proven tons of times before it sells. All that aside, when he puts his mind to it he can make some incredibly good and meaningful raps.

I think the song is funny, and I don't think he would have seriously meant for it to be an amazing rap. It is much better than 50 cent rapping about being "in da club" or some southern rapper talking about spinners.
Exactly.
