XFactor's Astro Got Em’s Permission to Alter Lose Yourself

[EminemInsider]

I could put my heart into a live rap song too. Doesn't mean it would be good or anyone would want to hear it.

If this weren't a kid with diabetes, nobody would care.

Yes, he's a kid- 15 years old and diabetes got nuthin to do with it. He knows hip-hop (Heavy D, Frazer shout-out?) he loves it and he can perform. Thats what matters.

How heart less can some people get at times?

Didn't even know he had diabetes. He has great stage presence, and it was enjoyable to listen to. Multis don't have to make or break a song.

People like the ones in this thread are the reason Drake, Kanye, and Lil Wayne get hype.

Lol at multies being the world to you.

Wait he has diabete?

That kid is awesome. Props on him for remaking Lose Yourself, I really hope I'll see him on a Eminem collab.

[SG.]

That was surprisingly good.

Until he said "swag" at the end.

Rappers without multis don't get too much respect, nor should they.

But that's not all. His verse isn't good, period. The only positive thing I can say is he's a better live performer than Jay-Z. Oh wait, he can join the club on that one.

[Amaranthine]

I don't get it. A novelty thing, I guess?

Tell the kid to learn how to write multis before rapping over the Lose Yourself instrumental.

He's fifteen.

I'm fifteen. And I can write multi's..

Age isn't an excuse. It's all about skill, clearly this kid isn't showing his talent, IF he has any.

Just because he knows rap, and listens to fucking artists like Big-L doesn't mean shit.

Would you guys still appreciate Eminem if he wasn't lyrical? If he just used one syllable rhymes?

Rhyming is a central part of hip-hop, not "putting your heart into your song" nor "emotions".

[legendstatus]

I can safely say and confidently conclude that Eminem does NOT watch The X Factor.

This.
It's just something people say

i bet he does.

he was supposed to be a judge and is good friends with Simon, so hes probably watching what he missed

Friends with Simon really

[trinell05]

Lol. Some of you are taking this too much to heart. I watched the show when it aired, and I thought the kid did an amazing job. But I bet some of you assholes would probably prefer dickcheese artists like Taylor Swift and Justin Beiber doing covers over this kid shuttin shit down on stage.

Now Williow Smith's performance that same night should have paved the way for legalizing stoning children in this country. That shit was a disgrace.

And what is the big fucking deal with multis?

[iain08]

I'm lost in the moment
I look around expecting to see a few friends, but i only see opponents
my job, I'm on it
they don't think i really want it, (huh)
what about the fact that a few years ago i was homeless
but this ain't a pity factor, so I don't show emotions
I just get on stage hopin they feel it when I'm flowin
fifteen, living the dream, with grown men waitin
for me to fail, like the results got everybody waitin
snap back to reality, (huh) i dress casually
black sweaters, they mad at me
but im winning happily
from bk new york, it's something like the jungle man
you make it outta there its kinda hard to be a humble man;
plans to go ahead and make this money
cause only thing free was the host of BET

I got classics that ya'll ain't even hear yet
I made it this far and I ain't shed a tear yet
boo hoo, enough with the sad stories
i can't depend on my pancreas to make insulin for me
but I ain't trippin, I aint speaking about it in interviews
give me space like the interlude, got an igloo
full of cavemen thoughts, and imma let em out
biography with the lyrics ,they show you what I'm about
last year i was unknown, but now Im major
and knockin em out with the flow like a boxer, rest in peace Joe Frazier;
if this is my one shot, trust i won't blow it
and imma give my all like i owe it

durr.

I'm fifteen. And I can write multi's..

and your multis are not hard to write. you can have the greatest multis in the world and still sound like total shit. harder to have a good flow, good voice, and be catchy while sounding bad.
im feelin myself and not afraid to show it
if you put me on stage imma own it

If eminem had the same lyrical content but sounded like waka flocka no one would like him. This kid is an AMAZING performer and he has MEANINGFUL lyrics. His lyrical skill will only get better. Stop hating because he's more talented than you ever will be.
