"That's Why They Call Him Slim Shady"

Recently my good friend was listening to the Marshall Mathers LP and it got me thinking Eminem , Marshall Mathers, Slim Shady whatever you want to call him has reached legendary status. People talk about Jay Z, Nas, Tupac, Biggie, Wayne and so on but how to you over look somebody that has sold over 80 million albums. Now people, no let me rephrase ignorant people will say he's a white rapper course he's gonna sell more than any one else. Well that's straight bullshit, He's talents or undoubted and he just gets better and better every time you hear him on Jay Z's song Renegade where he features he takes over and lyrically destroys Jay Z's...

Since I'm in a position to talk to these kids and they listen
I ain't no politician but I'll kick it with 'em a minute
Cause see they call me a menace; and if the shoe fits I'll wear it
But if it don't, then y'all'll swallow the truth grin and bear it
Now who's these king of these rude ludicrous lucrative lyrics
Who could inherit the title, put the youth in hysterics
usin his music to steer it sharin his views in his marriage
But there's a huge interference - they're sayin you shouldn't hear it
Maybe it's hatred I spew, maybe it's food for the spirit
Maybe it's beautiful music I made for you to just cherish
But I'm debated disputed hated and viewed in America
as a motherfuckin drug addict - like you didn't experiment?
Now now, that's when you start to stare at who's in the mirror
and see yourself as a kid again, and you get embarrassed
And I got nothin to do but make you look stupid as parents
You fuckin do-gooders - too bad you couldn't do good at marriage!
 Thats just some of the lyrics from his part on that song and he shows how talented and how good he is. The Marshall Mathers LP for me is his best album to date, I mean there's not many albums you can put on and not want to skip a song but with this album you don't. Tracks like Kill you, Kim, Criminal, They Way I am, Stan, Bitch Please II, I could go on but I'd end up listing the whole album.

Eminem is the greatest rapper alive today and people can try and disagree but Eminem lyrical kils every one he gets on a track with, Ja Rule tried to diss Eminem and look what happened. He disappeared from Hip Hop for about 5 years came back and won a grammy for best Hip Hop album I mean thats says it all, how can he not be the greatest?? He is the top selling artist in the last 10 years higher than the Beatles, Michael Jackson every one.


Eminem = Greatness

This is my favourite Eminem Track


Basically the title says it all he is what he is and if you don't like him F*ck you!!
