Is Eminem still relevant?

[Guestx]

Mods, please don't move this to the music forum, if for no other reason than because Emmy is a pop culture icon who transcends music.

With all that said. . .

Yes, is Eminem still relevant?

I'm listening to Relapse right now--it's the first time I've listened to an Eminem album in probably five years at least--and it reminds me of how talented the dude really is.

Does anyone give a fuck about Eminem anymore? Or is he the white DMX?

Not as much as he was in 1999-2001.

I remember listening to the Slim Shady LP about one thousand times.

 

[BisexualMMA]

Not really. But Snoop Dogg says he's black now, so there's that.

Interesting your cut off is 2001. I don't feel like he really hit his prime until he released The Eminem Show in '02.

Hmm?

We didn't need Snoop to tell us that.

Pffft, Marshall Mathers LP was the pinnacle of his peak.

He made it to a thread on Sherdog, that's gotta count for shumtin.

We make reputations on this motherfucker.

If Sherdog nods in your direction, you're good for life. Otherwise . . . good luck.

That's cool.

Jesus though, that picture they picked to illustrate the article is fucking ROUGH!

Emmy looks he's on a bender.

I do not disagree!

I remember listening to him around 18 or so. I'm about to turn 36.

Icon? Really?

 

[Guestx]

LOL at the comments for this video. . .

My lifes goal is to become so lovable that I can pop my ass out the floor and have everyone lose their shit.

It's simple, when Eminem is at your show it's not your show anymore.

When eminem comes to your house, you are the guest.

Eminem is like "hey Siri" just say the magic words and poof he's there fixing your shit concert.

 

[Guestx]

Icon? Really?

I mean. . . Fucking Yeah!

Are you saying Eminem is not an icon?

 

[bandicoot]

Icon? Really?

Uh, yeah.

 

[ghoul]

Are you saying Eminem is not an icon?

It might be an American thing, because I sure as hell dont see him as an icon. It's more of a "huh is he still around?" whenever I hear a new song that he's on. idk. It was never my cup of tea, his voice is annoying.

And we can take him down if need be.
