Seamus Heaney, the great Irish poet (must be good... he's on the A level syllabus!!) reckons Eminem is one of the worlds best living poets... that's good enough for me... he also a talented actor, and quite a funny guy... he'll kill me for saying this, but he's not really that much like Slim Shady...

❌ i dont think he pretends to be black at all. hes immersed in a primarily black industry, and he grew up in an area with a much higher black population than white, so you cant really blame him for being influenced by black culture. people think hes a wigga because he raps, but the truth is hes just a very talented mc who just happens to be white. Elvis faced the same prejudice when he first came on the scene.
im by no means his biggest fan, but there are very few artists who i respect more than Eminem.
uh huh...
anyways ICP arent underground. ive seen them on MTV many times. everyone knows about them. and maybe if you took just a second to stretch your obviously slightly deranged mind and actually read my post, you would see that i wasnt promoting mainstream rap and i wasnt expressing my love for Eminem, just my respect. and the majority of music i listen to is a long way from mainstream.
and dont try and judge me from a three word post.
they are more underground then korn and smile empty soul, what kinda crap is ses. korn is then shit i will admitt. im not gunna sit here all day and arue with some 10 year old bout who is and isnt underground. the whole Psychopathic Records Label is underground no matter what your mainstream ass says
