Oh so freespech.

Em should go downtown LA stand on a fuckin chair and say "yo i gave nate dogg money,gimme a fuckin award"

come on man.

Awesome Em, where were you when he had to ask for donations from fans to pay his medical bills? And not just Em, but every big hiphop figure. If they were really friends with Nate, they'd have taken care of him when he was down. I'm not saying that's why he died, I'm not blaming anyone for his death, but it's messed out how all these rappers are saying "RIP Nate, he was a good friend" when they couldn't have given him a tiny fraction of their millions a couple months ago. Makes me mad...

Perhaps you know something I don't, but how the fuck do you know "these rappers" didn't help him? Did he say something like "Man, ain't no one helping me..."?

Because he had to ask fans for help? Between guys like Snoop, Em, Dre, and his countless other friends in hiphop, do you really think he should have needed fan support? No. If one of my friends needed my help to STAY ALIVE I would give him every damn penny I had.

It's funny how you all are facepalming me and shit when there was a thread on Nate Dogg needing help months ago and everyone had the same opinion I do. Then I pull Em's name into it and you all flip. I don't care what you all think, if I had to sell my house and car to keep a friend alive I would in a heartbeat.

1: I haven't facepalmed anyone.
2: I ain't part of "you all" since I never even saw that thread.
3: You don't even know what's been said between them all, do you? I will facepalm you right now 'cause you're, even though you say you're not, hinting that Em, Dre, Snoop etc. could've prevented his death. That's what you're saying, just in other words.

[FreeSpeech]

1: I haven't facepalmed anyone.
Someone else did, I'm not talking to you specifically.
2: I ain't part of "you all" since I never even saw that thread.
Again, not you specifically, I'm just saying the "forum sentiment" was drastically different before Eminem was mentioned.
3: You don't even know what's been said between them all, do you? I will facepalm you right now 'cause you're, even though you say you're not, hinting that Em, Dre, Snoop etc. could've prevented his death. That's what you're saying, just in other words.

I'm not at all saying they could have prevented his death, I'd never blame someone for another's death, that's messed up. All I'm saying is it's pretty apparent that Nate needed help, didn't recieve it from his millionaire "friends" and had to rely on fan support. If they don't want to help, fine, it's none of my business. It's not their fault he died. All I'm saying is it's funny how they are all acting like one of their best friends just died when they couldn't give him some cash 6 months ago. Even if they gave some, he still had to ask for fan support.

Doubt any rapper is going to heaven but we should be expecting an Em tribute song soon?

Doubt anybody is going somewhere that doesn't exist.

And, I doubt Em will make a tribute song on Nate. He was a friend of his but they only worked together a few times, it's not like he was his best friend. And I think by doing a tribute song, as just a sort of... passing friend, would kind of cheapen the weight of the tribute.

I think that statement will be Em's only official word on it. Beyond the odd line or two.

You take your religion and yourself way to seriously.

[HereHere]

Eminem may have supported him when he was sick, who knows? Em never brags about giving to charity, no one should.

You hardly got all the facts. I didn't know about him reaching out to fans for support, but you don't know what he's been saying to Dre etc. I mean, they could've offered him money but he could easily have rejected their offer. You have to realize there's more to it than just asking someone for money.

And I don't really get why you even brought that up. No one knows why he died.

His religion? Lol, apparently he's not religious.

Lack of religion you mean. And, no I don't - somebody just mentioned it and I responded with my view on it. It's fine to say heaven exists but not fine to say it doesn't... ?

And, I don't take myself seriously, you obviously don't know me very well. For one thing I was being sarcastic in picking at that. British people are very dry, and, that gets lost in text. Half the time I'm saying things tongue in cheek but tone / timing is not translated.

Either way, in real life I'm self-deprecating and the first to put myself down, laugh at myself and make myself the butt of the joke. So hssh now silly boy.

[ShadyHerbII]

R.I.P. Nate Dogg another good rapper is gone and we're stuck with the garbage ones.

[Asd-ONE]

God does not exist, fact.

This has nothing to do with the cause of him dying, I'm not blaming anyone. I'm just saying it's funny how they couldn't pay his bills but then act like they were best friends once he's gone. And why would he reject money from his millionaire "friends" when he set up a website to recieve donations from fans? He was obviously desperate.

Where did you get "best friend" from? Em said he was happy they were friends. I mean, he didn't say they used to hang out every single day. I have a lot of friends, but very few I would pay medical bills for. Nahimean?

And as I said earlier, we don't even know what Nate's been saying to people.

This isn't specifically about Em, I said that, stop focusing on that like an ignorant defensive Stan. I merely said Em's name because of the OP. Snoop has said him and Nate were best friends. And I also have lots of friends who aren't as close, but if I was absolutely loaded with dough, like Em, Snoop, Dre and all them are, I'd for sure drop a few mill to help a friend. A million to them is absolutely nothing.
