Music is and art which is about interpretation. If you interpreted that Em's song "Kim" was about actually killing her you are wrong. If you interpreted "Kill you" was about wanting to kill his mother you are wrong as well. The only person who can tell what exactly was meant was him which he does for every song in his autobiography.
In his autobiography "Angry blond" he writes that he wrote the song Kim because he wanted to write a love song that wasn't corny after watching a movie. They had been broken up and there was a child in the mix. He wanted to pour his heart out yet scream at the same time. He didn't want to say, "Baby I love you, come back to me." But instead he got creative and wrote something unique. He even played the song for her when they started talking again. He told her that he knows it's a screwed up song, but it shows how much he cares.
I don't believe in censorship. I believe it is the person's own fault if they take what someone says the wrong way. You can't blame someone else for your own actions, that's just making up excuses. If it's a teenager then the parents should be involved and listening to the music that they listen to so that they can talk about any interpretations they have. After Eminem's first album songs like "Kill you" were just made to outdo the other songs. |
Thats great that he can be deep, deepness is always better than being shallow, and yes songs can have hidden meanings. BUt what about the Superman song? That song sickens me. I don't like any of Federlines songs that I have heard so far, but I'd rather listen to someone wrap about money then about degrading women just because it makes them feel powerful. There are some songs by Eminem that I do like, but there are a few that make my ears hurt and make me wanna throw up. Because of these select few, I have lost all respect for the man, if he should even be called a man.
