Muchhausen's cases will convince doctors they need surgery, and they often succeed multiple times!

I know.

c'mon, Em, Johnny Cash shot a man in Reno just to watch him die ... maybe you need to apologize on your next record for calling the other fellow 'short'

The growth of rap and hip hop culture has been fueled by the white liberal media elite and the general PC notion that any movement that comes out of the black subculture must be good and healthy for the entire country.

Dang...you must be very old. Old enough to recount that every adolescent period has had music that seemed counter culture enough to disturb the ADULTS?
So Elvis was wrong too....for gyrating and introducing "black soul" to white rock?

Let's get something straight here...for a rapper of any color, Eminem is extremely talented. Don't think his whiteness doesn't bother some people.
I realize he pushes peoples buttons, but his branding of rap is a platform for something a bit different than most of what passes as club rap and hip hop.
What makes him interesting is the tongue in cheek nature of much of his rap. His use of irony , coupled with a self-deprecating mirror attacking the politically correct media perceptions of "who" he is, should make him an FR darling around here.
And I suppose you're one of the few who also believe Walter Williams really gives his wife a new apron on her birthday...hmmm?

The term "genius" really dosen't mean much anymore when a low life thug can be deemed one.

"The country continues to circle the drain, and it's picking up speed."

I thought that by the time I reached this age I would be wishing I were younger, instead I find myself glad to be as old as I am.

Well, he is very talented. That's all I can say.

"They kill me, truly they do. I laugh like hell."

I wish I could laugh, I look at them and want to cry. I have watched a neighbor's son go from a very polite well mannered little boy to a very polite well mannered
ex-con who has just been released form prison and who wil go back for life if he has just one more felony conviction. At a certain age he started to act like a black gheto gangster type and there was no help for him after that.

Equivocating Elvis or any other "controversial in his day" performer with the modern day hip hop and all it embodies is a misjudgement.

Darn, you must be young.

Don't fret, accroding to many of our resident youngblood freepers here that is all a-ok in the name of "youthful rebellion" ....and "pushing buttons".....I love that last one.

The AMs and JR are so ubersensitive about anything to do with race yet they allow these hip hop cheerleaders to flourish here as though that has squat to do with conservatism.

Celebrating the demise of our culture (and the total destruction of what's left of black society) and conservatism do not dovetail nicely.

I wondered about a crossbow, myself.

Wearing a vest certainly wouldn't make me feel like superman.. and if I were Eminem I would be highly pissed that the press is reporting this.

If I needed a vest, no one would know about it.

Ja has branded Eminem's mother a "crackhead" and Eminem has hit back by ridiculing Ja for being short.

Both are telling the truth so where is the problem?

Eminem is the Anti-Michael Jackson!

Michael is black and longs to be a white boy & Eminem is a white boy wanting to be a black boy!

I believe the term on the street is

WIGGER!

I'm now trying to stuff my fascist alter-ego back down

I have one of those too. I always attributed it to being half German.

Let me advise you folks that have kids listening to Gangsta-Rap!

Have you listen to any of this?? really listened? I just bought a new truck and have the XM Satelite radio. ...FCC does not regulate Satelite!

This is the raunchiest, nastiest, meanest, hateful trash I've ever heard. Don't let your kids be brain-washed with this crap!

There also have been some very "talented" murderers like serial killers who go for a long time before being caught and actually harass the police and play word games with them. Some can also be called "geniuses" and be admired for their great "skill". Also, lets not forget those other brilliantly talented performers like pickpockets, forgers, scam artists, etc., who labor in obscurity and never get their due (sarcasm). When you attribute "genius' and "talent" to obscene foulmouths like eminem and his ilk, you have done your bit to cheapen the meanings of these words, and to help grease the skids of culture into the toilet.

Hmmm. Not sure I agree with you. Yes, some are very good at murder. I don't think what Marshall does is equivalent to murder...not even comparable. He is pretty funny in my opinion.

Ja [Rule] has branded Eminem's mother a "crackhead" and Eminem has hit back by ridiculing Ja for being short.

Seems to me Ja Rule's "diss" was much more severe.
