I've discovered that, late at night, when I'm in a cynical, analytical mood, some of Eminem's songs really work. Not that they apply to my life, but ( Read more... )

Have you seen the music video for one of his songs? (I can't think of the name)

But it showed home videos of him as a child at Christmas when his dad wasn't there. Quite sad actually...

Yeah, it seems half his songs fall under the currently accepted idea of "rap" (meaning, explicit content) and the other half is him ranting about his childhood and about his inabilities as a father...

I might have seen that music video, but I can't recall it off the top of my head.

It's different. And it's not about having sex, etc. In which I can draw some respect for him.

Talking about respecting rap, have you heard the new rap song that's actually about abstaining from sex?

I'm assuming this new rap song is also by Eminem?

And no I haven't, as you could probably tell. :P

Btw, good job on the TOK project today. I could tell you were sort of hoping for more of a discussion though...

Haha, no it's not by Eminem. I randomly heard it on the radio listening to (guess what?) the rap station. Not my fault all the other stations play commercials 24/7.

Mmm, yeah, the TOK project... I was trying to get Pierce to keep going, but... ah well. And good job to you too, although I'm not sure if I ever really figured out what you were saying as far as it dealing in some way or form with terrorism. Interesting thing with the light though.

And if you could tell we were looking for discussion, why didn't you play the devil's advocate? :-P

So glad that's over with.
