Would u be listning to hip hop if there was no Eminem.

my mom doesn't really care what i listen to. i was playing bitch in the car and she didn't even say anything

[A Chicago Thing]

when i say 'NWA', 80% of ppl are like "wtf are you talking about?" - so don't blame Eminem for introducing white kids to rap

maybe it's because your from poland but NWA was made popular by white kids. Hell any rapper that pops is by white kids. Since gangster rap has emerged, white kids count for the majority of the sales.

i was listening to em since infinite

somehow i really doubt that

i was listening to em since infinite, but i listend to dre, snoop dogg, and the game from when he came out, 50 when he was better (the mix tape era before the fame and fortune) and so on, yeah sure i like eminem and he is my fav but i would continue to rap and listen to rap even if he didnt exist

i doubt u knew he existed at the time of infinite... lol

I got into rap in about 2001 really. In fact dr dre(chronic 01)/snoop(doggystyle)/notorious BIG (born again) that were my first albums an that I mostly used to listen to. then obviously because eminem did some songs with snoop an dre I got into him that way. Ive always liked eminem alot but 2pac, nas and method man are prob my personal most favourite or influential rappers. I do have da eminem albums an do like them alot tho.

rofl.... come on...
it goes back to the 70s, theres just so many big artists, so many nice tunes, not just em u know. i think it was tupac who started it all for me, back in 98
