Quote by Ronnie:
I think it's a tad bit harder to take what Eminem sings about as a joke (as in the famous Foghorn Leghorn quote "It's a joke, son"), given the source. Then again, the way I frequently see these things, he is a master at baiting people, take that as you will.

Would that make Eminem a MASTER BAITER?

hey Ronnie. Are you a Ronstadt fan? (nothing to do with Eminem) I have of course heard of Eminem (and what he looks like) and it's play on words sounding like the candy. I know none of his music though. might have seen him once on a music special. Welcome!!!!! As an aside; I have often wondered if Linda should have gone by just Ronstadt as a stage name per se but then I have thought it might sound like a group. eddiejinnj

Algae is an aquatic PLANT. LR was hit in the FACE by a lobster. She falls of the balcony and FACE-PLANTS onto the concrete.

Eminem was actually questioned on the Linda quote... This is what he had to say about it:
"Let’s say I’m writing, and I lock onto Linda Ronstadt. I’m in the studio and I chuckle. Someone hears me and is like, “What the f*ck are you laughing at?” It’s because I thought of something funny that rhymes with something. I’m not gonna not say this, because it’s funny, regardless of whether or not it’s f*cked up. If it happens to connect and there’s some kind of humor in it, some reason for it to rhyme with something else, then I’m going to say it.
When I’m pushing boundaries, I want to make sure that I keep myself in check. I want you to know that this rhyme might be f*cked up or funny or not, or whatever. I’m aware of it and I know I’m probably f*cked up for saying it.
I don’t think it’s any different than what comedians do. Have you ever seen Lisa Lampanelli? She takes the piss out of herself while she says these ridiculous things. You’re like, “That was f*cked up,” and then she comes right behind it with some self-deprecating thing about herself. She’s figured out a way to weave certain things together that’s very clever."

I understand this is a family forum, however Eminem has never been family rap. He name drops for fun because it rhymes and it's funny in his opinion, he has a different type of humor than you that's fine.
What I really wanted to say is that the level of writing skill is easy to ignore when you don't like the actual words.
"So a martyr is how I paint myself And through my harrowin' ordeals I'm so vain I want my respect But ignore the butterfly effect that comes from my dialect Till I sit in the dark and I reflect And my reflection shows what it's like here Cause this vanity, surrounded by all these lights Yeah, it's like a nightmare I said, this vanity surrounded by these lights is a night-mirror And I don't like how I see myself..."
Here's a decent representation of his technical skill; (my)respect, (fly)effect, (dia)lect, (I)reflect, (my)reflection; (Like)here:(night)mare:(night)mirror; Vanity is a night mirror; but his vanity surrounded by the lights of fame is a nightmare. And then the mirror leading into how he sees himself.
I understand if this doesn't change your opinion of him as a person, but as a artist he takes his passion very very seriously, and he is a Christian, who separated his religion and beliefs from his talent for the sake of being successful, and it was all for his daughter. He then adopted his neice, and then her sister. He's a great human being, his freestyle, no written raps tend to go this route because it's the first thing to pop into his mind, because he was a battle rapper. That whole mentality is dog eat dog, you either "kill" them lyrically or you go home. I recommend some of you giving him an opportunity to teach you the wonderful art of rap, and how it can be like weaving a tapestry of language. Take care friends!!

Welcome to the forum, late. Eminem, might (as I don't know his music well), illustrate the old saying "Don't judge a book by its cover". eddiejinnj
