    .......is the stupidest s--- I've ever heard. People have literally been calling Eminem pop since Slim Shady LP/MMLP. I don't think people know what pop is.

    If Eminem's all of a sudden "gone pop" since ~Recovery, Jay, Kanye, 50, Kendrick, Jada, Curren$y, Wayne, etc have never been anything but pop. Having a pop star sing a chorus =/= pop song.

    Oh and btw, who's heard that d--- pop song by Tupac, called Changes? Or what about that lame pop star Biggie and hypnotized?

    Changes and Hypnotize appeal to the mainstream because they're great songs. Lighters and The Monster appeal to the mainstream because they're pandering, lowest common denominator bs. You're blind if you don't see the difference.

    Ltwyl - pretty bad
    Lighters - bottom 5 eminem track
    The monster - average

    Don't care if a song is pop, for example empire state of mind and stronger are fantastic

    The Monster is a great song! The replay value is great, a hear it on the radio still, everyone sings along, its in the clubs on a weekend!

    10/10 on a Commercial Single for an Album. Very very clever of Eminem/Paul on that.

    Eminem has always made pop songs. Look at the first singles for his albums

    IGN on the Real Slim Shady 15 years ago:

    IGN cited: "The albums obligatory "pop" number is exposed on "The Real Slim Shady," which chugs and lurches along to a boinging electro funk beat. It would be a total pop smash if it weren't for the lyrics, though. Leave it to Em to juice it up with ear candy effervescent, but keep the words in the subversive. As with the other Dre crafted tunes on the album, there's plenty of cool special effects bustling about—fart noises, heavy breathing, all of it coalescing with Em's cartoon character on crystal m--- delivery. Sure it's pop, but of the most demented nature."
