The Eminem Show

So I've been posting long in here , but I have never expressed my tastes , in music , in movies or infact anything other than biking and my obsessive interest in girls . So this is a blog for me ..

So today I was watching a show about Eminem and how he made it big in the Hip Hop scene , which is usually monopolised by the afro-americans . They despise the white folk of america and direct most of the lyrics explicit and all at their white faced , supposed oppressors . So back to eminem . Although he came into my attention in 2000 with his record smashing "real slim shady" , he was pretty famous a year before (but news gets here slow) . So enter a bad ass white guy , rapping around , bad mouthing everything and everyone , making fun of everything and everyone . This was followed by many of his similar antics and the really touching songs among them became jus flukes . Even though many of his earlier songs were , apart from their explicit lyrics , great music , it was rarely acknowledged that eminem could infact make good music . "Cleaning out my closet" was infact very touching , but here , among friends just seen as another eminem track .

The real turning point came with "Stan" and ofcourse my favorite "Lose yourself" . Stan , featuring dido , in one of his best , but that has infact a lot to do with dido and her superb song . But the genius in lose yourself cannot be denied . Not by listener , not by fans , and not by critics . Eminem was here . He was an apprentice (to Dr. Dre) no more . He was the biggest name in pop . R&B stars accepts him , Dre directs him and everyone has to respect him .

Toy soldiers hit it #1 at UK . But its not our style , with neither me nor Jonathan liking it . But "lose yourself " and "8 Mile " has enough steam to push him on for some time more......
So Let Me Get The Fuck Out ...
