His lyrics are well thought, his beats are okay, why do so many people disliek will smith as a rapper? I know he dosnt swear in his rhyems, but i mean dosnt that show he is even better if he can express a feeling without dropping an f-word?

because in order to become a big name rap star you must romantacize thug life. will smith doesn't do that, but since he is already a big name, the only thing people can do is say that he sucks. i think a lot of people have forgottten that the first thing that he did to get famous in the first place is rap. if you can't respect a guy that has stayed true to his roots, you're an @sshole. i'm not saying that i like his music either because i don't. i'm just saying that i can respect his music

I like every kind of music. I love Em. When i here his music i feel that i can relate to most of it. He makes you see where he is coming from. He makes you feel. Whether you like him or hate him he sings about what he knows, his life, and whether it is good or bad it takes guts to sing about your life. But good or bad Em is Em. Love him or hate him. He may not mean most of what he raps about but music is just music. As a rapper he is Slim Shady as a person who cares about his family and has problems like everyone else he is Marshel Mathers.

I really like eminem and not only do i have his cds and his poster on my wall,but my friend turned his life around in order to go to a music college because eminem gave him hope that he to could make a career in music.But him being a good role model...to other ppl yes because he gives them hope that they can make it up from the streets!!And a big NO when it comes to his daughter he is always on the road, drinking,drugs,his daughter is forced into home schooling because of violence directed at her from students and the media and all he has provided for her thus far is a broken home violence directed at her mother who hates him with a passion and has sole custody!!

tuomas rocks.he is an awesome guy and a very good composer. i often cry when i listen to his songs and when i see ppl doing the same[ rarely] i am very happy. i don't understand by this a form of wickness.i mean his lyrics touch our souls the way no1 or almost no1 succeed.\nbut i have read somewhere he isn't in that band..i heard that for my pain asked him to play some songs for them, never heard of him being a part of that band.that i have heard of emppu, not tuomas.

I think Ludacris is very sexy. I love his voice. His music is good, some of his lyrics are demeaning to women, but some are ok. He is also a very good actor. I enjoyed him in "Crash".

I dont think hes one. He does rap good but like the person said before me, there is more that we, the outsiders, dont know about him and what is happening. There could be some drama going on between him and outcast. Its like Destinys Child before they kicked out some of their members. All of the girls in the group before could sing good. Andre will most likly do good going solo thou in my opinion. Hey, he might even come to his senses and get with outcast again. He probably just wanted to lead a normal life. I know I would after so many years of having to deal with people who I dont even know getting into my business.

MY FAVORITE SONG OF EMINEM\nIS WHEN IM GONE.\n\nVery touching when he stands up and gives his speech to \nhis very last ordeal with being a father in halieys life.\nHe could of choosed his carrer but he choose her.\nKind of what we should be like? Dont ever let our ego go over our head i think is what eminem is trying to say out there in a nice way to his fans and telling everyone that he is not just about the fans but he has others besides his fans he cares about in his life.

What?  It's from the Black album back that rocks!  and the only song on And justice for all is one....PLEASE..That whole album is awesome!!  it seems that his voice has changed for some reason or another. His voice changed, no long solos, not as heavy, seems to be fizzling out..such a shame that they don't get back into their old style.\n\nThis is in reference to Hudsonscribe and Jerry Jagon..I did watch that documentary and I will always love Metallica, I understand that bands need to change, but not to the point where their die hard fans such as I are disappointed.  Back in the day you had Death metal, speed metal, heavy metal, hair bands, hard rock and just rock..  Metallica was in between Speed and heavy..do you understand the adrenaline rush??? I loved the solos as well...Even Kirk Hammett in the documentary was very disappointed that the solos weren't going to play...and since when do they care what everyone Else thinks...I remember when they wouldn't make a video because they didn't want to become like the other bands...remember that?  Am I Evil was taken off Kill em all (absolutely love that song).. made me mad.  I do like Some of their newer songs, and that's just some; I've loved ALL of their old ones.  I do understand that they have been through a lot of changes and some of them for the good for instance James quit drinking...and there's more but it just seems they've lost their spunk.. and I do hope that their next album reflects their old style.

If he's not alive, where the hell is all this music coming from? Especially the music with rappers that are hot today that weren't before 2Pac's death. Frankly I think he's still alive so that he can use "hey, i'm dead" as his unique gimmick.

I think it's a double standard due to the fact that rappers say the "N" word (No I don't use it!!) every other word!! And you hear all these little hip hop clowns refer to themselves as it again every other word...I have no problem with the fact that he snapped and called them something they probably refered to themselves as all day long anyway....It was the comment that precipitated it\n\n"If it was 50 years ago you'd be hanging upside down with a fork in your a*s" That blew my mind...\n\nSomething like that just doesn't roll off your tongue unless you've thought about it before..That was unbelievably offensive and crossed every there was to cross in my mind!! The dudes career has been dead for years. So I can't even say he buried himself with that comment...But he sure let people know where his mind lies..He's racist no if's ands or buts about it.

The person's response above mine is false. If you look at their self-titled CD, almost every song is sung in a way that could be interpreted as rap. Look at "Spit it Out". \n\nI agree, though, with the other person who said that people just have to label things. I personally don't care what a band is categorized under. It's not going to change the fact that I like them, or influence me to listen to a certain band because they're so-called "nu metal", "rapcore", etc. People need to just leave things be and appreciate good music if it sounds good and you enjoy it

im black, but it has nothin to do with my answer. I enjoy rap, but i do understand what you gettin at. The rap game is not...the rap game anymore. Nothin happened to it really, money happened to the rap game. Its millions of dollars in this buisness. And when money gets involved with anything, it becomes fake, fraud and corrupt i learned. Rappers sell shoes, clothes, and yeah...grills to uphold their record sales..And people are all into this hip-hop image that they seem makes them "cool" or "hip". But really people forgot who they really are as "people". And i dont see anything getting better here, cuz mostly (african-americans) are gettin influenced and gettin pumped by these songs. I dont really think there should be stereotyping: "man since he dresses "gangsta" i'm threatened or scared of him". It all started on the block, just havin fun wit it, and then all hell broke loose. But once again like i said, the rap-game has millions of dollars in it. And only a memory will remain of the "real" rappers.

he should have performed his first song, Stay With Me, that's my favorite song by him, but I like his album still. He was cute but there were way better performances. Yung Joc, his performance, he seemed like he was scared to perform or shy, nervous, something. Chris Brown he was good, but the best performance was definitely Busta's, Mary's, and Jamie and Fantasia's perfomances. T.I., I love him to death, but his was boring, but he still looked so good last night, haha.

I don't know about all of that.I don't think there are that many people that are so obsessed with Jay-Z that they think of him as a God. They idolize him because he is a celebrity, just like they idolize lots of other celebrities.

I agree with you girl! He may be short to you but not to me. I started liking him when he first came out in b2k. Boy, do I miss them may I add. I have everyone of their cds. Omarion is very good looking too, not to mention his down to earth personality and great talent in singing. Alot of girls chose lil fizz as the best looking one in b2k but I think Omarion is more better looking. I have this door sized poster of him I got from one of his concerts, hes wearing no shirt and hes standing with his back to the door. He has a ghetto booty, lol. Alot of guys cant pull that off but he sure can. Its cute on him thou.

I mos def think people are sleeping on him.. He's super sick wit it!!! I luv his soulfulness and it comes even harder becuz he doesnt look like he can boast out a vocal like that almost like Christina Aguilera. But hes fabolous and is married to a beautiful black woman to I may add. A couple of my girls went to his video shoot for the song "Wanna Luv U Girl" feat Bustah Rhymes and they said he was really down-to-earth.
