At Snoop's trial they found it as self defense, and if I remember correctly it wasn't him that shot back, it was his friend, but I could be wrong. I totally believe that Suge Knight was behind Tupac's murder, no doubt about that. As for "Diddy"...he needs to go into a cave and NOT come out..I can't stand him! What's his name this week?

He's isn't doing anything worse than every other rapper is out there and his songs really aren't as bad as some I've heard. There's a few I listen to once and say never again. Eight Mile ROCKS .....that's one cd I played till I was sick of it.

Give me Eminem and the Old Rappers anytime....people can have that dude in the video - I wouldn't waste my money on that.

Seriously I needed that laugh !!! Thanks!!!

I've seen her live, and yes she can sing. I'm not just saying this because I'm a huge fan of hers either.

I'v also seen her live and I don't know I guess so. Lets just say she's no Mariah, but hen who is besides Christina and a few others.

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.

I'd rather listen to something deep and meaningful than someone rapping about the car they own or money. IMO anyone can do that and has done that. I don't think Em really disrespects women, he has a daughter and Kim remarried him earlier in the year. I think that he's just good at putting his frustrations down on paper. I don't think he's really the violent type. I have felt the same way he does in his music but have never acted on it. It's just nice to know when someone has been in the same sad situation and got through it and be able to let it all out constructively.

Back on the topic... Did anyone see how short Brit's dress was and how much Kfed was cussing in the song? Wasn't it supposed to be the TEEN nick awards? Does anyone remember Lindsey Lohan showing her whole butt at the kid's choice awards? At least Eminem doesn't preforms his music in the appropriate venues. But what is going on with Nick?

All Kfed raps about is being a "star," the money/objects his wife GIVES him, and the media. Most of these things the public can't identify with.
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.

All Em is doing is saying stuff that ALL and I mean ALL of us think of, but we NEVER have the nerve to come out and say it.

You're comment to me, seemed like that is all black women and black girls look up to being. I'm just letting you know what it looks like you were saying on the other side of the monitor. And a lot of the videohoes today aren't even black. And I honestly don't think that the girls in the videos have anything to do w/ certain rappers degrading women, yes it attributes to it in some cases, but if the rapper is going to degrade women I believe he'll do it regaurdless if women support him or not.

It' is all about what YOU the female see yourself as...I as a black woman see it a lot, how women allow themselves to be exactly what they are being called in lyrics. Regardless, if my statement was racist or not..it is true. I did say MOST, I didn't say ALL!! People give words, and musicians to much credit. If you believe that you are what you hear you will act accordingly. It's not what they call you, it is what you answer to...And the said part about that is A LOT OF US HAVE BEEN ANSWERING TO THAT...So, they keep calling us those names and will comtinue until females black, white, orange, and purple stop answering to them.

I agree. It depends on the woman herself and what she wants to be. If she wants attention from men for the wrong reasons and in the wrong ways then she will become any man's object. If she wants to be a strong woman with her own mind that is very much possible as well. I have known alot of respectful, strong, black woman to look up to.

I don't think what PlatinumYorkies said was racist at all. When you say rapper what do you think of a black person, so who do the MAJORITY of the rappers have in their video's BLACK GIRLS WITH BIG A$&%#.

I understand you didn't mean it in a racist way, but that one comment you made gave me an image of all black women only looking up to being videohoes. But in a lot of videos now I see every race dancing around, some degrading, some not. I still think that they will degrade women though no matter how many women respond, because they have obviously been raised to do that. Their not going to change their ways. If it sells, their going to do it.
