Eminem's Use Of "Faggot" Post-Comeback

[Sekou]

it has become part of lyrical style and as we know he never compromises his style for nobody .

He does nowadays.
And ironically, I think that the use of the word faggot, when it is completely out of context, is compromising his style. He does it, cause he thinks he NEEDS to, because of the image he has created and because of what his fans expect from him.

Am I the only one who thinks the past "faggot"'s seems more forced than the later ones? Why would he want to shock at this stage of his career? More plausible he'd ues it to shock ten years ago.

The People who sais Em didn't fall off just matured with Recovery get fucked from behind, cause he cusses more than all albums combined maybe, and the thing is, it's POINTLESS swearing as mike said, he's using Faggot know just to use it...

He barely says faggot on Recovery. He did it more on Relapse. /end of discussion. But, I'll keep going...

He shows maturity as a person on GTC, Not Afraid (like it or not), Talkin' 2 Myself, Cinderella Man, Love The Way You Lie (like it or not) etc....

"But, Cold Windz Blowz, WTP nd So Badz be goofy nd not seriouz!!!!!!111", do you really expect Eminem to be dead serious the whole album? He would be criticized for not being diverse.

Jesus people bitch about the stupidest things,think of how freely people on this board use the word.Its a major slang word in todays society deal with it

His flow was to aggressive for people on Recovery,then it was to boring on 50 ways and the accent wasnt good either and on and on.I think people need to stop listening to him if he never does anything right in there minds

Everyone loved the voice he was using post Relapse/pre Recovery. Everyone likes his normal voice, there is absolutely no reason for him not to use it.

Sorry guys, if this is a really stupid thing to ask, but what does "no homo" actually mean? I always assumed it just means "I'm not gay", which I don't think is a bad thing to say at all, or does it mean something else?

They say "no homo" in that Jay-Z/Rihanna/Kanye West song aswell.

[ShadyVsEminem]

I cant believe people praise the MMLP and now swearing is an issue.Fuck shit ass bitch cunt
From Kill you to criminal im pretty sure that CD has way more curses

He had gone to soft on Encore when there was sweet fuck all swearing

I always took it as a phrase that clarifies an ambiguous statement as not being a gay comment.

All you little faggots can suck it
No homo, but I'ma stick it to 'em like refrigerator magnets

Pretty clever imo

So, kind of like if you make some innuendo, which could make you sound like you're gay, you add "no homo" to clarify that you're not? Or something along those lines?

I can't really see how "no homo" is bad, if that's how it's used. If Lady Gaga started saying "no hetero" in songs, I wouldn't care.

What songs did he even use faggot in on Relapse? Underground and what else?

Old Time's Sake, he just let Dre say it

Elevator on Refill.

[magic12ernie]

^^He ghostwrote it for Dre in INAD as well.


Yea, no homo has kind of the opposite effect of 'that's what she said' phrases. It's like a disclaimer before someone says something.

[Wreck]

Everybody hates him using the word faggot but the fact that no one finds fault that he's dissing a dead man (Reeves), and a guy with a shaking disorder (Michael J. Fox) is hilarious.

On topic; but yeah I agree he has used the word just for the sake of using it now.

[BigBoss]

Its fucking Eminem.

If you want pussy songs listen to hannah montana or justin bieber.

When I feel in a bad mood or a angry mood I pop on some Em to help because idk why, but his constant use of bad words calms me down
