Any Black Folks Like Eminem?

[atribecalledgabi]

the slim shady lp was the only thing i ever really liked from him. everything else was just...meh.

 

[Disciplined InSight]

iMpIlDez...what did H-rap say to you that got you so pissed?

 

[Wonderland]

he from the D...

Eastside Blocks

Dresden Street, 7 Mile, 8 Mile, Fairport etc

Grow up on the same Street as Proof and the house on The Marshall Mathers LP Cover is the house he grew up in on 7 Mile Road as a teenager

She obviously doesnt know wtf she's talking about. Ignore this idiot.....Just proved my point, Speaking on the black community trying to figure us out when she dont know shit.

London does have over a million blacks you idiot and we all live in the same hoods

Straightupsho said the USA is very segregated

I pointed out to him the blacks that didn't grow up up in a segregated hood actually had Whites like Eminem who grew up in the hood with them going through the same struggles that Em did these blacks relate to Em's Music and feel the Pain and struggles he Rap's about and are not uncomfortable just cos it's a white person Rapping about them

What's so hard to comprehend about that?

Sis, I mastered a technique were I use the lunatics and attention-whores as an excuse to share knowledge and build with the family.

It's literally impossible for a chick from the UK to understand the intricacies of our culture and our community, so I don't take her ramblings too serious.

I give her a pass for her insatiable adoration of Emenim because she is a woman with strong emotions who found sanctuary in his music during a rough period in her life......it's not like she's a male poster with an insatiable adoration for H-Rap because that would be just foul and embarrassing.

The same people that are saying shadyteam shouldn't be talking about black culture are the same people acting like they know the ins and outs of everything regarding another group of people.
Obviously both sides are ignoring the ridiculous claims of someone who doesn't belong to their group.

Moving on the last eminem song that I really liked was Mosh. I think I grew out of liking eminem because while he could rap he had a cartoonish persona that I just didn't like anymore.

This is a biography documentry of Eminem's life before Music people he grew up with, people from his hood in Detroit, his co workers where he used to work washing dishes, his child hood friends, school teachers all speak on this about his life and what they saw him go through

Covers everything from growing up with out father to being homeless and living in public housing and section 8 housing to his mothers drug addiction to his child hood friendship with Proof to him being a parent at the age of 21 years old with Hailey

That Slim Shady Cartoonish persona is the down side

But he himself hates that persona and those silly Songs are in the minority

No excuse but the fact is after MY Name became succesful INterscope the label also pressured Em to keep making Songs like that or they wouldn't release his Albums even though he didn't want to make those gimmicky silly Songs

But we got an amazing Album with REcovery that didn't have a Song like that at all and was straight Intospective/Deep/Emotional real life from start to finish

Where am i lying though what has class gotta do with black culture too?

There are black people that grew up poor in the hood with no father, grew up with a single mother on welfare, grew up in section 8 housing

Then there are white people like Eminem that grew up with the same cicumstances and lifestyle

It simply is class and being a product of ya enviroment it's not rocket science if Em was black making the same Songs about those struggles he does, coming from the same class and enviroment, same up bringing he came from the blacks who been through those same struggles and grew up in poverty like Eminem will have no problem saying they can relate to his Music like with 2pac

Simple

 

[just.might.b.ok]

hi, im just here to say that back when eminem started rapping he didnt do it around black people, he had a white boy only rap band, thats when he made the racist tapes.
the group was called (not joking):
The Racist Rap Hour with Bassmint Productions
ok, bye.

 

[Wonderland]

If 2pac was White making the same Songs he did about growing up poor, growing up homeless, growing up with a drug addicted mother, growing up with out a father etc then blacks who been through those same things will be saying they can't relate just cos he white

Like they do with Eminem

Same way as i said if Eminem was black with the same Songs he has about growing up poor, growing up with out a father, growing up in a welfare home, growing up homeless, growing up with a drug addicted parent blacks who been through that will relate and love it

That simple cos race is still a big issue to some unfortunatley

 

[NothingButTheTruth]

not really, and especially not his newer work

I never heard nobody in my area bump Eminem he dont appeal to blacks maybe to them corny ass lame blacks but I dont know them personally

He solely for white people and depressive losers

I dont bump a rapper who talks about takin a chainsaw to his gf's neck and her ridin shotgun wavin at people

Eminem is wack and his following that blows him out of proportion just because he is white makes him unbareable.

Cosign all this.

This got real dumb real quick...
From a black dude who grew up in the hood, without a father and robbed people and caught a few cases , (and also been an honor roll/deans list student every report card I ever got) I like Em because he is really good at rapping and i think he's funny....yea I relate to the fact he said ..."All I know is I don't want to follow in the footsteps of my dad. Cause I hate him so bad. The worst fear that I had was growin' up to be like his fuckin' ass"
that's just one facet of his appeal though...
And let's not act like posting on the internet is a "black thing" either...

You a lame bruh, I can tell from your avi alone.

 

[b@squ1@t redux]

tommy the realest

big 10 bout to be the most classicest

makin moves and slidin like grease >>>

 

[Wonderland]

And the most funny thing of all is and this is crazy

When 2pac was in Marin City, California and was homeless a White lady actually took him in and gave him a roof over his head

And like i said if you watch the Beef DVD you will see an interview with Proof's mother where she talks about how she gave Eminem a roof over his head when he was homeless and raised him in his teens

People can look this up

Not to mention the other similarities both their parents were drug addicts, both grew up with mothers on welfare, boith grew up with out a father, both had troubled relationships with females

 

[Wonderland]

Let's be honest too forget all this skin color and it being hard for certain blacks to relate just cos it's a white Rapping about struggles they experience

If Eminem sold lets say half of what he has instead of selling 80 Million and being the highest seller ever a lotta these blacks on the IC would have no problem with him but being the most succesful naturally some are going to be jealouse and hate it's human nature

seems like it got unoticed, dont compare eminem to 2pac, 2pac would never let anyone put an ass on his face.

 

[Wonderland]

Selling that much while actually being alive, making number 1 Single after Single, selling out bigger venues around the globe than anyone, scopping up Grammy award after award, scooping up Oscar awards

Doing riducolous things like almost selling 2 Million in the opening week

Wethger people on the IC that hate on Em wanna admit it or not naturally with that kinda riodiculous success, popularity, that big of a fan base and that much love from the public globally is going to get people jealouse cos he more succesful than their fave Artist/Producer
