Jan 26, 2016I always wondered why only Eminem receives so much hate. He experiments with new flows, new rhymes, his lyrics are superior. Any other rapper can rap about cars, money, drugs and other similar things and the public will praise them. Eminem progresses further and yet, we criticise his Recovery, Relapse, Encore, MMLP2 songs, although many of them are really good and way better than the greatest hits of other artists who sing simple repetitive rhymes. I admit, he was bettter in 2000s, but still, his new songs aren't the worst ones. Look at Snoop Dogg, the guy fell off but no ones cares, 50 Cent has been nowhere near GRODT in last 13 years and people don't hate on him, just don't listen to him. Kendrick Lamar's new album has really weird flow where he uses high pitch weird voice and everyone praises him. No one criticizes Drake for saying "He started from the bottom", calling him fake. I always wondered why does Em have to be different from others. Pretty bad fate, isn't it?

Because he is continuing to ruin his legacy by being awkward, also his humor is stale and not as funny as it was back then. -

The honest answer is because we know what he is/was capable of.
People are passionate about their fav artists and his decline has been hard to watch. We are critical because we want him to suceed.(This ad goes away when signing up) -

Even though some here say he is the worst and that he sucks everbody know he is the biggest rapper ever and probably the best (it's obvious if people vote for the best Rapper ever Eminem would win by gettin half of the votes and easily win that thing).
They just either jealous because of reasons like their fav rapper is not the best.
or they just tryin' to sound different. (here they more about following the trend of hatin' on Em)VR46, homeless bitch, DMX and 1 other person like this. -

Very good thread, couple reasons
1. He's the biggest rapper oat. The bigger you are ,the bigger of a target you become
It's a natural reaction. You tend to attack the guy who's in the lead
2. He's extremely polarizing, meaning people absolutely love or hate him ( He can be pretty offensive )
3. Carries baggage being a minority shining in a black artform ("In this industry I'm the cause of a lotta envy" (if we're talking US only)
That being said, it's funny how his new s--- is still better than most of the stuff thats outthere.Franch46, Base Reality, GawDEDEDE and 1 other person like this. -

Because in his prime he was a f---ing Juggernaut and he set the bar for himself. Since 2004 he has dipped below that bare and rarely got even on level with it.

Eminem isn't these other rappers. Not a single one of these other industry rappers can do what Eminem can do. This is why he as remained consistently relevant when his contemporaries (the rappers who were big in the early 2000s and late 90s) have all but have faded out of relevancy. His sound, cadences, flows, deliveries, rhyme schemes, his broad diversity of content from '99 to 2015, his image, his unspoken role in the overall rap game - its all a completely unique phenomenon. The fact he has remained relevant throughout the years is just incredible - only artists that remain top selling of their genres for decade + are the living legends of those genres.
People who go out there way to hate Eminem and people who hop on opinionated bandwagons are treating music the entire wrong way. If Picasso put a painting up in a gallery, you'd sound like a fool to complain because the painting doesn't look like what you are accustomed to seeing from Picasso. Music is the same way. The s--- is still painted by Picasso. Since when it is appropriate to pigeonhole an artist? What good does that do? The artist will explore their craft regardless. That's how you know Eminem is real artist; he continuously is exploring deeper and deeper waters of the craft of rapping. You n----s are acting like Eminem is a phone company who has continuously been selling you dysfunctional products. What the f--- kind of nonsensical way is that to interact with an artist's creation?
Eminem, a living legend, out here rapping like he tryna get signed still, rapping like NOBODY else can rap but n----s wanna only gas up Future who half time is mumbling some incoherent bulllshit about all the lean he doesn't even drink. n----s wanna gas up Kendrick, who just dropped an egregiously overrated (that metacritic score is f---ing shameful) faux black empowerment album centered around the industry and corporate america pimping him as an artist, then immediately after release signs a f---in reebok deal (thinking he's gonna fix f---ing g--- related black on black violence with some f---ing overpriced corny shoes), then does a weak remix of f---in bad blood by Taylor Swift. Are you f---ing kidding me? That's the definition of hypocrisy. Kendrick literally doesn't do s--- to actually help minority communities on a tangible institutional and systemic level (cause that's the level where change happens). n----s wanna gas up Drake, who has been recycling the same trash since 2009, who was an actor on Degrassi, who doesn't even write his own music, who is an ACTOR before he is a rapper in the booth, and who can't even really sing. n----s wanna gas up Kanye who promotes his album by doing dumb middle school drama s--- on f---ing twitter, married to the kardashians, promoting his weak a--- "fashion" bs, etc. etc.
The real question: WHAT THE f--- HAPPENED TO THE INTEGRITY OF THE HIP-HOP FAN?
Or has the urban/youth demographic really devolved into a pool of extremely gullible, f---ing r-----ed blind consumers? How can attempt to marginalize and demean a rapper like Eminem, then turn around a praise these other rappers who wouldn't be anywhere near as famous as they are if social media didn't exist? The art form that is hip-hop music has been so commercialized, its entire image is now like a f---ing reality tv show or some s---. Your average hip-hop fan don't even respect the actual f---ing art of RHYMING words together (which is one of the core foundations of the entire f---ing genre of hip-hop), they don't respect the actual literary dynamic, the poetic element of hip-hop, the writing aspects. n----s only wanna hear what "sounds good" to their small conditioned minds. They don't want to experience art - they just want to be entertained and that's the main issue. -

Bro you didn't get it even when you are saying it... He is different from others.. He has to be different from others... he was born to be different from others.... and he loves to be different from others. He doesn't want some dumb people to embrace his music, cause he know they Wont GET IT... and they are no one to him. People who understands him and appreciates his music are BLESSES to understand him. He's Shady and he just don't give a f--- to what people think or say. -
