I think you do not give enough credit to the audience that is listening to the music. There will always be hateful people unfortunately, and some of those people probably happen to listen to Eminem. But a good majority of his audience, is part of the most accepting generation of LGBT in the history of the United States. People are able to separate the person from a character. The same reason QT is able to use the N word in his scripts. It's not something he does in his personal life, it's something his fictional characters do in his films (side point, Eminem has also always been known as cinematic visual rapper, see Stan). And yes, there is a certain intimacy with music, but to imply that film doesn't have as much affect on people as music is a little ridiculous.
Thid was good.
Also I loved how he quoted that hilarious part from Elevator (relapse fetting love!!)
But seriously, these faggets need to listen to Recovery.
Yep but a key point is missed there...
Em is in-character but the use of Phaggit vs. QT's use of Nikk@ is different because Tarrantino is using it as incidental language in a totally fictional word.
The entire reason Eminem is using it at all is to play with the context. In interviews he keeps saying it just means asshole etc. but in reality - his lyrics show he is playing with the perception of what it does mean, to provoke people. He's ONLY doing it because he was misunderstood to begin with, and because that button exists to be pushed. It's all said within the basic context of 'am I really this or am I not? let me play the role and see if you can figure it out... '
After all this time - they STILL do not understand the playground concept that he's only fucking saying the shit to provoke them and make the rest of us, including fucking Elton, who aren't totally brain-dead, cock-sucking fucking idiots - LAUGH. Man. Whoever wrote that cunting article is such a stupid fucking cunt fuck.
Sure, ive never actually believed that bullshit he says when he puts the blame on his old days rapping.
I know its all to provoke, and for the sake of the rhyme. Much like black rappers ALWAYS use the word Nigga.
This is also the reason why Elton wont come out and officially say something now. Because he and Em is laughing their asses off on the phone, probably right now.
"Hey, Elton man. Check this link I texted you now. Youre gonna die from laughter!"
"Oh well hello Marshall! How are you dear boy? I shall indeed do that. Let me see.. Eehhhh ahahahahahahaha ooh my dear boy youve done it again! Bravo, bravo!"
That how I imagine their conversation anyway.
