I used to hate him, coz I can never understand what he was saying, but I actually started to like his song from his latest CD... either it's because I started to pay attention to his story or those damn radio station that keep playing eminem brain washed me, hehe. But I do like the song Stan, it's a cool song IMO, hehe. :)

I also like "The way I am", it's a cool song if you can understand what the hack he is saying... hehe, just keep listening to it...

I think Stan is a great song, there is always a strong message behind Eminems music, not to mention it shakes the hell outta my car :) Bio you actually met Kid Rock? no way man! get me an autograph :)

I'm on the same wavelength as most of the guys here.. I really disliked his first few "popular" songs, but Stan is pretty good, Dido makes the chorus good, and the "story" part makes it different in a good way instead of that annoying whiney stuff he put out before...

Speaking of rock/metal rap/R&B crossovers, anyone remember Urban Dance Squad? Good stuff! I wonder if they are still around....

Eminem gets the thumbs up from me.

I don't really listen to the radio much so I hardly heard any of his stuff up till a couple of months ago. Then I got hold of the Dr Dre cd '2001' and really enjoyed that.

That led me to get the latest Eminem albumn and wow...what a great album to play in the car...Also got his first album and that is good to...

I know he acts like a complete ass in public and needs a good slapping but he still make two good albums in my opinion of course :)

Reg, he grew up with my best bud's cousin. Met him kinda by chance. Tim's cousin Keith called us up and said him and his friend "Bob" were going bowling. Of course bowling with Keith means BEER. So we went. Turned out to be Kid Rock. Just before his New Years eve concert at the palace, he came over and DJ'd a party at the house I was living in! We were going to charge $15 a pop to get in, but he said he'd cover our costs :) THAT is my idea of an awsome fella.

I have never heard such crap in my life(eminem and kid rock)....it's not even music, but more of a product(dr dre is a fantastic salesman though). Something for white teenagers to buy to make them feel "cooler". Bunch of crack head white trash fools.

One vote for the negative here. Personally, I can't stand that bigoted piece of white trash.

I personally like Eminem's music. At first I didn't like his music because it sounded stupid but after hearing a couple others I like how he can rap about sick shiet and everything either ryhmes or makes sense with the song. I don't like his views on people but then again I only listen to his music because I think it sounds good, not because I follow what he believes.

I have over 100 of his songs whether it be released, unreleased, or even just freestyles. And no I did not download them I bought the cd's for $1 each.
