TMZ reported Eminem to the secret service for his lyrics, funny they didnt seem to feel the same need when Eminem was rapping about killing his wife.
+1000.
Well tbf that’s not the job of the secret service.
When did TMZ become such a blatantly right-wing tabloid? Was it always like this and I just wasn’t paying close attention?
Always. The answer is always. Harvey Levin has always been a nut case.
Always has been.
That song was twenty years ago and TMZ didn’t exist then. And Em has actually even apologized for those lyrics . Can we move on now?
Trump has only been president for 2.5 years. Where did you get 20 years from?
I think VV means the wife killing song was 20 years ago.
I’m sorry but I’m not moving on from a man violently explaining how he wants to murder the mother of his child in a song that he made millions off of. Threatening violence against women is not okay in my book and no weak ass apology is going to make that right.
Nm.
He’s done other highly problematic things over the years too though. With women, problematic behavior and behavior of male associates get used to justify anything. Even offenses smaller than his are clung to, like Christina being difficult. At least Eminem isn’t from any marginalized group expected to pay for his wrongs with silence.
That song was a dark paradox about a crazy fan and he killing his wife driving over a cliff to show how crazy the fan is. He is quilty as charged of putting down women but he calls out hypocrisy about sex, I think he sees through people and end up rapping about that. He knows he’s a headcase too but he does a lot of good stuff too. He raised his daughter right too.
I bet he reported himself since no one was paying attention to him.
I guess if you don’t listen to rap you would think that.
Pretty sure his 2018 Kamikaze album was rated one of the best rap albums of the year by fans and critics.
He is actually the biggest selling artist in pure sales in 2019 without releasing an album, so he doesn’t need (or like) that kind of attention.
In an authoritarian dictatorship no criticism of the Dear Leader is permitted. See North Korea for examples.
My friend got a visit from the FBI… when she was in 8th grade (so 1988/89) for taking out too many books about Russia from our town’s public library. She was just a nerd studying Russian and wanted to learn more about the country & its history. They didn’t know she was just a kid.
Wow! Yeah, peeps were in full Red Scare mode back then. How the tide has turned. Trump has sold America to Putin and a considerable amount of American citizens are ok with that.
LOL! Now they’d probably offer her a role in the administration.
I love that rap about T rump
Notice fat donna didn’t go off on Eminem. Is he scared of eminem or his friends?
What a waste of tax payer money. Hasn’t Eminem always been like that? Pfffffft. Lame. TMZ can suck it.
I normally don’t read non fiction but I am looking forward to reading Catch and Kill
Thanks for the 90 day article! I love that show
Em is known for his bitching in raps. He has as much right as anyone to down talk Trump.
Why are the taxpayers paying to send the FBI? What a load of BS.
Citizens are allowed free speech, to voice their ideas. Em don’t like Trump? Who the F does?
I still find it unreal that Trump hasn’t been removed from office on the grounds of mentally disturbed. His job is POTUS and yet, he has time to twitter every day. Doesn’t the WH have an actual daily agenda for the POTUS to work on? Seems not.
It IS funny That Trump never fired back. He fires back (toilet tweets) at everyone. Hmmmm, keep it up MM! You may be the only person he is afraid of.
ETA. Never thought it’d be me. But I lost at least 6 good friends over Trump. I drew MY line in the sand.
