I think that's it haha.

I must have missed those interesting and intelligent artistic-devices (unless you mean the bit where he talks in a funny voice and pretends to be gay?) but lets not derail this thread further.

I meant the poetic and literary devices used in his lyrics, which I guess were lost on you, much like I said earlier.

Perhaps you could explain the poetic and literary devices used in his lyrics to me? the ones specific to his later albums.

Seriously under the heading 'poetic devices' then under the heading 'literary devices', why don't you tell me exactly what you mean (be clear, use examples)?

I know what these things are, and, if you're right, I'll gladly agree with you.

hahaha

There's a mate of mine who once said that more people would realise how amazing Eminem is (/was) if he was more 'underground'. It's very true, I think. Having said that, all the heads I know give him mad props.

It's true. People tend to like you more if nobody else does.

ok
Eminen is shit and has always been.
There.

congratulations, you have won / it's a year's subscription of bad puns

I think once you've got the hang of that logic, you stop being a whiny indie prick about things. This isn't aimed at you so much as it's aimed at all the whiny indie pricks reading.

You should listen to Girls Aloud. Similar to Eminem, if they were a hip German underground outfit quoting Cindy Sherman (hello, Chicks on Speed) then loads more people would be all over their boink.

word.

i had to let it go.
i feel free.
i'm a bird.

my wife just pre-ordered the new album for me!

wow she deserves....
huh she just deserves.

so what do you guys think about the new album?

Well, it's definitely better than Encore or whatever the fuck that album was called.

Entertaining album. I've only listened twice but I like most of it quite a bit.

I'm just gonna stay as far as possible from this thread.

^and you accomplish that by posting in it? Hmm.

The new album is pretty good.. A few duds but that's to be expected. The beat on 'Same song and dance' is awesome

hes always had an annoying voice, but on the earlier albums when he was channeling all that hatred and violence it sounded kinda cool, like really demented. its really hilarious thinking about myself as a 13 year old listening to eminem and just loving the hell out of every curse word and offensive statement on there. the first two are great man, as good as anything dre ever produced, even the chronic. the "eminem show" is a piece of shit, and i couldnt even tell you about the others as i never cared to buy it.
