I dont like the cuss words in his songs but I think he is okay, I liked the Slim Shady song when I was like 8 lol.

He's one of the only rappers I can listen to. His lyrics, most of the time, are very deep and well written because he actually takes time to construct them. I think he raises very valid points in his music that a lot of people think about but tend to avoid.

I've always liked his darker songs, and his overall attitude.
I was disapointed when I finally realized that he just raps over the same crap over and over and over.
Plus he did a Brisk Iced Tea commercial, which kinda ruined my image of him being a "fight the establishment guy"

I think he's a rapper.

He's a pretty gifted artist. Swear words or not, he's the one doing the songs and obviously has some serious skill. I like him, personally.

I agree completely, he is one of my favorite artists and I'm not a huge fan of Rap in the first place. I like some rap songs here and there, but as far as being a HUGE fan, no. I love his music, listen to it all the time. His work is very deep. As one put it you can listen to his work and learn so much about him. How he felt after Kim(His wife) cheated on him (Listen to son 'Kim'), his struggle to become an artist ('Lose yourself'), his relationship with his daughter ('When I'm Gone' and 'Mockingbird'), ect. Yes he has a lot of songs that have the cliche song themes: sex, money, drugs, ect. But that is not all he sings about.

I'm a huge fan of rap but I'm not a fan of curse words lol. Well, as much as he's fond of curse words, I still think he's the best rapper alive.

When it comes to rap, I can be pretty picky. For the most part, I just don't like the songs that are all about money, girls, partying, etc. they're all just so shallow and they all sound the same to me (there are a few exceptions). But. This is why Eminem is one of my favorite rappers. Given, I don't like ALL of his songs, but most of his songs are so much deeper than your typical rap song. They have a story, and that's when rap is at it's best; is when it's telling a story, and going deeper than most rappers will go these days.

He's alright for a rapper. I like the songs Slim Shady and Purple Pills. But, I'm not really that into rap. I guess what I'm saying is. He's good at what he does. But, I'm not into his stuff. Haha.
