    I don't live in Detroit so I can't say what he has or hasn't done (I'm sure his heart is ij the right place like most people) doesn't change the fact that there is a sentiment of being neglected that Detroit rappers have (they speak of him like he's a ghost that doesn't do s*** for the city, where are the positive testimonies of his help, I've even seen some of Madonna private charity work )
    Also as far as charities are concerned,Which celebrity doesn't have a charity, slapping your name on own doesn't a humanitarian make.

    Take a look at this..
    "The French Red Cross, founded in 1864, is an independent charity working alongside governments and public authorities. As a key player in society, we provide humanitarian, health, social, welfare and training services."

    Maybe he's just a good person?

    Em is treated differently than Paul wall because of the way he carries himself as well as his fanbase and most importantly, the type of music he makes.

    I disagree with basically every eminem take on this site. It’s mostly overcompensating white kids s***ting on him and then stanning Youngboy or whatever to fit in

    well yeah
    Paul wall stayed true to his southern rap peers, his Houstonite culture and his fans nobody down there is questioning his integrity or whatever
    Em transcended hip hop and has to deal with the praise and criticism that come with it

    That was now that people get canceled for everything. Before that there was no problem with rappers saying it.

    And you don't see white rappers saying the n word in their songs. Just black people and latinos who are allowed to say it. So I don't see the big deal.

    Em f***ed up by saying it, but only did it in an evil way in the early 90s. And he also apologized for it. It's been a minute since it's 2020.

    Our problem isn’t with Eminem it’s with the dumbasses that think it’s okay for someone like him to say it & making stupid ass statements to justify it after he himself ADMITTED HE WAS IN THE WRONG

    Also that was way before the gay rights movement gained steam & before the LGBTQ community reclaimed the slurs for themselves

    Contrary to what Twitter says, nobody cares if a white person says nigga while reciting lyrics to a song

    Tell that to Kendrick’s lame ass.

    Slow down buddy, answer my question.

    Are you equating racism to homophobia and misogny?

    Because "people get killed for being gay or women too" (still confused why you brought up people being killed)

    Cause they also suffered like black people, and still do.

    Yet the word was being thrown around in hip hop and there was no problem.

    Just saying that there are other words that have been used even thought it wasn't cool.

    I also said white people shouldn't say it in raps or stuff like that. It's not like I agree with white people saying it. But calling Eminem racist and expecting us not to laugh, that's gonna be hard.

  • Jun 25, 2020

    also s*** was like 20 years ago or whatever stop holding people of today’s standards

  • Jun 25, 2020

    So someone who says the N word in their youth 20 years ago is still to be treated like a racist even after apologizing and not doing it again since?

    Y'all are bored on a Thursday

    Eminem got "so much hate for it" as if that hasn't been the fuel of his career
    He also got alot of praise for it.
    They knew what they were doing. Doesn't take away of the message nor the intent, but it was safe and well executed (beside the coffee pot intro

    !https://youtu.be/6rFXaE02Q2g

    If you think he suffered from that freestyle, get a grip

    I don't think people really praised Kim for example. Even if I enjoy the song, you can tell something like this should have never made it on the album.

    Em had the whole gay community protesting in the streets. All of them mad at him. Way before people could protest on Twitter.

    Em hasn't said it in decades and he's not racist. That's the conclusion. And no white artists say it. And when they do now, it affects their career.

    It’s not like white people used that term to oppress & dehumanize black people in the most inhumane practices in American history or anything

    Nice logic

    You think I'm blind to that?

    Any sensible person shouldn't be. But if no one checked him in 1999, or 2000, or 2002, or 2004, or 2009 on albums where he has said wild s*** about blacks, gays and women, why are we digging for dirt to throw on him in 2020?

    How do you have this position when you said you say it yourself as a white person?

    How can you hold this position while defending a white rapper for saying it?

    In fact Em is guilty of all the things you are talking about rn.

    Stop using whataboutisms. We are talking about nigga right now.

    "suffered like black people" is the wildest thing you've said ITT
