He's being offensive on purpose to push peoples buttons, to see exactly how far he can go before they shut him down.

    Stressing the system just for the sake of stressing the system -- at the cost of moral integrity -- is not the slightest bit admirable, in my opinion.

    Right now I would say he is the greatest proponent of the 1st ammendment.

    I highly doubt that Eminem really cares about the First Amendment, except insofar as its existence allows him to continue being an obnoxious loudmouth.

    He's about as homophobic as any rapper, theres nothing particularly anti gay about eminem.

    Eminem's lyrics are among the most blatantly homophobic that I've heard. Just because it's "industry standard" doesn't mean it's acceptable.

    Everyone has to dissect his lyrics and pick some insignificant reference and completely forget the meaning of the song as a whole.

    Do me a favor... run down the track listings from the first two albums, and explain to me the "meaning of the song as a whole" for each one, making sure to explain the importance of the violent, sexist, and homophobic references as they pertain to each song's socially and/or politically significant message.

    2. Show me one artist thats reached eminem's level of pop superstardom without compromising any of their beliefs.

    You need to have beliefs WORTH compromising first...

    Finally hardcore rap has evolved past shooting each other in the street, getting ass and selling drugs.

    Yes, thank God! Finally we can talk about killing our girlfriends, raping our mothers, beating up faggots, and downing enough Vicodin to kill a baby elephant...

    I've listened to Eminem's first two albums thoroughly, and while you may be right that he makes a good point here and there, it's simply not worth it to put up with the rest of his misogynist, homophobic, self-indulging drivel.

    I like Lier Lier alot also.

    Yeah, Liar Liar wasn't bad at all, but I've also only seen that one once... the other two I own and have seen waaaaay too many times!
