eminem retiring? how lame. he is one of the richest rappers though, IIRC i saw some MTV/VH1 special talking about rich/famous people, and in some year he made like $24 million through various things (album, shows, signing new artists, etc). I think it's really bogus that they bow out once they get rich, they owe it to the fans that made them rich to keep going.


....you also have to look at it this way,when you've lost touch with your roots,i.e, what made you the type of rapper you are,you should retire,or do what snoop did and change genres...people like 50cent etc,that've moved out of the ghettos,who arent in gangs anymore,etc,shouldnt be doing songs about it those things anymore...so in m's case,he's disconnected from his mom,kim,and he now lives in a gated community...whats he gonna rap about? money and cars...its not him..
