    So you're looking to apply a 'youth' theory to the fact I disagree with your opinion on the world, which you haven't demonstrated in any logical way or with any decent argument? That's fkn weak.

    Look for another out my man.

    i dont belive your 27 and dont see the impact race has in the world

    u just said kanye changes his hair went worldwide no it didnt

    before u brough up macklemore selling low, well what happened when mac made a gay rights song when gay right songs have been done before, what happened when mac made a thrift shop song ? being white effected that

    is there a reason u dont belive white people see eminem and say let me listen to him? hes the first white rapper to have huge success in rap which let him to get an international fanbase compared to all the other black rappers before him u cant deny this

    I already said he's famous? I already said that's a factor? I literally gave you other reasons this is getting attention.

    Then I gave you the final reason. Have you never heard anybody say that before? It's a fact because it's true. Why do you think Em said all those things about race, Colin, and black army vets. Because he knows white privilege exists and that s--- just isn't equal, and he doesn't want to be mistaken for a denier.

    It's not his fault, nobody's tryna take anything away from him for being white, relax. in fact that's what makes it so great and the majority of ppl actually hating on it are white ppl.

    Well, I am 27 and what I see is conversations and debates about race impacting the world - absolutely. That doesn't make those conversations reality. There's a difference between conversation and truth.

    Kanye's hair change did go worldwide. I check for global news and I saw the s--- everywhere for a day. As well as him packing on some weight, as well as him doing anything... because he's really fkn famous.

    It wasn't huge news, obviously, but my point is any move he or any really famous does travels far and wide because of how famous they are and if he did THIS... to say it wouldn't have this reaction? I think is silly and buying way too much into the notion of race.

    How did Thrift Shop... have anything to do with him being white? How about... because it's a big a--- catchy pop sounding rap song.

    2Pac sold as much as Em in worldwide album sales up to a point. Where as say... Nas... didn't. WHY? Do you seriously think the world is that simple and literally that black and white whereby people's success is determined by their race. You do realise that America is one of the only Western countries which is having any serious conversations about race.

    In the UK, they don't give a f--- and Eminem is as comparatively huge in the UK vs. say Jay-Z as he is in America. Again, WHY? Race relations are nothing like America in the UK, I can 100% assure nobody f---ing buys Eminem's music in the UK because he's white.

    Yes Eminem was the first white rapper to have international success. After many other white rappers with lots of visibility. Doesn't that tell you something?? You've proved my point.

    If what caused Eminem to blow up was his race, then why the f--- didn't other white rappers before him blow up like that? There's been white rappers before and since who do not blow up like he did, because their music does not impact people in the same way.

    Did Beasite Boys make music as good as MMLP?... That's why they didn't blow up like Eminem. If it was about race, why the f--- didn't all the white people in the world say 'oh they're white let me listen to them!' like you're suggesting happened with Eminem.

    Lots of people saying something or believeing something doesn't make it true. Just look at all the superstitions and beliefs throughout history.

    Can you actually demonstrate or point me to something documented, some kind of clear facts or proof of ''white privelage'' or what you're implying exists right now... beyond this vague belief that it does?

    If it does, then it should be pretty easy to demonstrate. And just saying 'that's because the person is white' for example isn't evidence of anything. That's just a belief, an undemonstrated belief.

    All this stupid theorizing from America is doing is CREATING racism, because it's causing divide and all this s--- from f---ing fiction.

    Yeah because saying ''Considering 3/4 americans are white, you being white means you're more relatable therefore more marketable'' is somehow creating racism

    Fall Off

    I don't believe if does though.

    Just like it didn't help Beastie Boys, Yelawolf... people don't listen to music because somebody is the same race as them. Apart from actual racists of course, but to suggest most of the world and mostly kids and teenagers are racists like that... is just really silly and ridiculous.

    None of the world gives a f--- about race like America. Eminem is as compartively famous in other countries to other rappers as America. You can believe this fiction if you want, but it's not reality.

    Not as big as Eminem though.

    If the sales come from race, why weren't they global megastars in the same way. They weren't as huge around the world, they were big in America and not as big for much less time.

    Also what about 50 cent? 50 sold over triple when Em did with his debut. He had the biggest debut in rap history. If it's about race, why didn't Em have the biggest debut in rap history? He was known all around the industry by that point already, had a visible co-sign from Dr. Dre.

    Music and image sells music. Image whether that's black or white.

    Kids and teenagers around the world don't buy music because somebody is the same race as them. That's such a ridiculous idea.

    When I was a kid I remember... we paid absolutely 0 attention to race, in who we listened to as well, it was never a thought or discussion. We'd talk about 2Pac in the same sentence as Eminem. That doesn't factor into a kids taste.

    @EminemBase
    You really can't make the correlation between being famous and being white? You can't wrap your brain around the concept that Eminem attained fame because he was a white person in a black sport? Being the anomaly in any activity is going to get more eyes on you than the normal thing. In this case, because of Eminem's status as a WHITE rapper... when he speaks on Trump... being who he is... EMINEM, the great white hope, people stop and stare because they value his words over the average rapper. His entire career has been a South Park episode and people wanna hear what he has to say about Trump... Eminem, the trailer trash white man that hates lesbians, is against Trump. Let that sink in.

    All the r-----s of the world s--- their pants at this news. He's been placed on a pedestal because of the COLOR of his SKIN and the fact that he was able to back it up with his rapping. Yes, he had to be a good rapper otherwise he would have gotten nowhere... but his skin color automatically makes people watch his moves. You can continue to say he's the best rapper ever... but to ignore the fact that he's famous BECAUSE he's white is moronic. That's his entire gimmick. The white rapper. Mac Miller and every other white rapper are simply who they are. Mac is Mac. He doesn't have to live up to this "image" the way Eminem does.


    It's quite simple really. Eminem is white. Eminem can rap. Rap is a black sport. Eminem raps really good. People realize he's white. Why's a white guy so good? That's literally it.


    If Eminem was black no one would listen to him. He became who he is because he's white. It's not white privilege, it's not racism, it's simply how people behave.... we see something different and put a lens to it.

    If you honestly believe that this isn't reality, that Eminem being white has nothing to do with his fame and how he achieved it, then you should promptly cease to exist.
