Because this post made me intrigued enough to look I’m posting:
MM is the greatest band that ever existed.
I mean, they’re a pretty good band. But god, who’d wanna be such an asshole?
Such a control freak
Finally someone my age posts theirs.
Is there an age that listens to that?
Gonna guess like late 40s.
Thanks for the answer because I’m 51 and I know people who are younger than me who like some of that and I know people who are older who like some of that but I don’t like any of it. I had a moment maybe with some but most are a hard no for me.
Ah what the heck
Mineral and Rainer Maria. Pretty solid.
based
Don’t judge because of Eminem 😭, the new album came out this year I think, I don’t remember listening that much more to him.
Damn
No judgment for emeinem. He gets a lot of hate nowadays but dude is absolutely foundational to modern rap music
id judge more for the death grips tbh
Normalize listening to Eminem tbh
A friend I made back in high school told me recently that when he was in middle school (diff school), people would mock him for listening to Eminem and said he should be listening to Tupac and Biggie. I told him that these people can fuck right off, there’s nothing wrong with listening to Eminem or any other artist YOU like. Music snobs suck ass. I like Pac and Biggie, but I don’t idolize them, they’re not special heroes to me because I’m pasty white and from another continent entirely. I don’t know their struggle even. I don’t know Em’s struggle either (shocker, I know, but my mom isn’t a drug addict and hasn’t sued me, nor are my friends getting gunned down), but I like his flow and the anger in his earlier songs. Best part is, we both would’ve been around 1 when Pac died. Some 10-13 years later, the kids saying “oh you should listen to Pac and Biggie not Eminem” are probably saying it because they’ve HEARD they need to like Pac and Biggie if they’re into hip hop. I could barely tell what was going on in their songs when I was 13 or 14, took me until much later to even know anything about the culture.
Eminem’s had banger tracks in every single album he’s done IMO. Tbh I might’ve missed one or two of the newer albums, but I doubt it’s changed. The man can murder with words.
If I was a snob, I’d say you need to be listening to Aesop Rock for style and vocabulary or Immortal Technique for commentary, but fuck that, you can like multiple artists and they don’t all have to be struggling, or have a deep, message, or anything really. Plus eminem is a GOAT in his own right at this point.
Yes I’m a huge Eminem fan, but much of this applies to any other artist too. If your favorite metal band is Metallica… So what? Yeah they’re mainstream and they’re assholes, but the music isn’t bad, you’re allowed to like it.
Mann gegen mann is the best gay anthem made by a heterosexual, change my mind
Mann Gegan Mann is a fuckin banger, 2000’s Rammstein was peak culture
Indeed. And I love their newest album too. They still make such bangers after so many years!!

Listen here buddy, I’m not your friend.

Problem? What problem?
Normalize pirating ‘problematic’ artists, some tracks are bangers even if they’re from terrible people
Educate this 👇
