Hate his anoying voice and his shit, but gotta be happy for him , so good on him. A white dude making it big time in a blackmans game, got to give him some credit for that.

eminem = sucessful vanilla ice ice baby

eminem, no question is one of the top lyricist right now...sure he does got a commercial side to him, eg
without me", but dont all artists do? or how else would they sell their records but most of em's songs are very meaningful. he raps life and thats what good about it. he doesnt rap bout hos and dough like most of the damn fudging so called "rappers" now aday.

btw, Lose Yourself is a very good inspirational song! It keeps me going everytime! so yeah congrats to em.

That's what I always say too (Though I usually get flamed for it). I don't really like rap but I do like some of Eminem's stuff. Haven't heard the song, but considering the lack of competition this year, it makes a lot of sense that something he would write would win hands down.

Hip Hop is a peoples game, not a mans game, not a black game. Secondly you can only draw 2 comparisions between eminem and vanilla ice. The first is that there both white, and the second is that there both popular. Eminems popularity has grown over multiple albums, and has clearly shown that he has more staying power. And color shouldnt be an issue in any music.

People who don't even listen to rap shouldn't make derogatory comments because it's no better than those who say, "how can you listen to this techno, it's so repetitive?". Obviously I'm generalizing as well but those who don't understand the music shouldn't be too loose with their words. I'm not a big rap fan myself but I can see that he has that something special required to survive in our music industry.

i agree ..
if you don't like eminem, that's fine. but that doesn't mean "he sucks", or "he doesn't deserve jack" .. he's really one of the best lyricists out there, his freestyle's pretty damn good too!
mayb his message doesn't relate with you, but i'm thinkin there are other ppl who think like he does and connects with him and his 'message'.

i think he deserves it. sure there are many great underground artists out there, but eminem has proven himself.

Eminem, well what can I say, I think the Slim Shady LP, was great , after that things got sucky, he does have a talent , if you watch 8 mile you will clearly see it there, I guess he deserves an osscar.

No fuckin way... Vanilla Ice had one hit song and that was it... he had no talent compared to Eminem.

Bah! The Eminem Show is one of the best CD's i ever purchased. Almost every song on there is good or great. IMO songs like When the Music Stops, Sing for the moment, square dance and 'Till I Collapse are easily as good as lose yourself.

his music+lyrics may be inspirational+pioneering but he needs to grow up and stop whining about his shit. seriously. others around the world have had plenty disastrous psyche-bending experiences and still learn to live with it. i understand that his rough childhood is the soul of his anger turned into music which makes it great but its too much. his whole "im too cool" attitude gets bothersome on interview, tvs, etc. he works too hard on his image imho.

i dont mind the whole hip hop culture in him though cause thats where he grew up around
