Even if you don't like Eminem's lyrics, it's undeniable that he's skilled at rhyming. While it's true that anyone can rap, not anyone can rhyme well. It's difficult to come up with multiple syllable rhymes for each line while remaining coherent. A lot of people who hate rap don't realize that.

Some of his rhymes are quite witty too, like
"Flavor with no seasoning, this is the sneak preview
I'll diss your magazine and still won't get a weak review"

Mariah 1 - 0 Eminem.

At least Mariah's track was worth listening to. Eminem needs to just fade out with his shrill voice and lame schtick. Instead of innovating his style, he's just relying on the same old shockjock gimmick. What's wrong with him? Sers. Everyone knows the pop industry is a joke. But he seems to have his panties permanently in a wad over it. All he ever raps about is how stupid pop chicks are. Big deal! If Eminem is so much better, why's he spending all his time in the gutter fighting with them?

Actually that's a horrible rhyme lol. First of all, it barely if at all makes coherent sense, second of all, it's just plain weak and contrived, and third of all, a fourth grader could rhyme "preview" and "review". AND OMG HE MADE "SNEAK" AND "WEAK" RHYME TOO

True he actually knows how to rap, but his skill is incredibly overhyped.

Try Louis Logic.


This whole "beef" thing between Eminem and Mariah Carey is simply laughable and childish. Does anybody remember 2Pac vs. Biggie? "That's why I fucked your bitch, you fat motherfucker"

BisuBoi they are just dissing each other. I don't see how Mariah gets the high ground by the nature of her diss. Mariah is being stuck up, conceited, arrogant, whatever, and she's so embarrassed about the choices she made that she lies about them. Eminem is probably close to the opposite of that, as he revels in his fuck-ups, as you can hear in his songs, and I'd imagine that he just hates people with Mariah's attitude. Plus, with his roots as a freestyle rapper, he just likes to diss people. It's his art. It's his style. He could be a regular dude in real life, but when he's rapping, he acts a certain way, like an author might write about murderers, or an animator might draw singing bears. Their art doesn't define them. So while the subject matter might be real in this case, it's still given a very stylistic presentation.

And imo it's cool to see artists do things like this. Instead of thinking about the meta of it, just take it for what it is. What if some random guy you knew, or even some tl.netter, decided to make a diss song about an ex who is acting bitchy and fucking with him? It'd be awesomely entertaining. It'd take an asshole to come in and question the guy's motives. Eminem probably has a studio in the basement of his house. With his talent, he can write, produce and record a song like that in one day. Why wouldn't he? It's what he does haha. He certainly doesn't give a fuck about negative publicity -- about the people who think he's fucked up for spending his time on something like that.

Great points Nony. I'll concede to you and Sith's arguments on this one. I can understand your rationale for this being Eminem's art. Life is the best inspiration for material, so I guess that's what he's doing.

For me, I'd be more entertained if Eminem picked on people who could actually fight back. Yeah, this stunt makes for great mass market hype drama, but it's the intellectual equivalent of slapping 5 year olds. And I wish someone with that much public exposure could exercise more wisdom and use his word-smithing to address issues that aren't already in the spotlight. Everyone knows shallow pretty girls do stupid things for the sake of expedience. Mariah Carey's never had any pretensions of being a paragon of virtue. For Eminem to harp on it just doesn't expand my mind.

He's had some good songs in the past. Just wish the songs that got so much play weren't the mindless ones, but that's the market I guess.
