I used to like Eminem, but after something like ten songs talking about how fucked up his family is, it gets really boring and uninventive. I tend to listen to other hip-hop artists, and his new work (like that single with akon, and "ass like that") doesn't deserve to be part of the genre of Hip-Hop.
Some of my favorite albums are Black Star from Kweli and Mos Def, and the old Common Sense albums (he calls himself Common now, and does Gap commercials...*shivers*).
I think Eminem is like the rest of his "team" (G-Unit and all). They try to display an image which might appeal to some, but I get really tired of it.
