“Em’s last five albums alone have combined for roughly 33.3 million in sales just in the United States, making the rapper the bestselling artist in hip-hop.”
“Marshall Bruce Mathers III (born October 17, 1972),[1] known by his primary stage name Eminem, or by his alter ego Slim Shady, is an American rapper, record producer and actor who has sold over 75 million albums worldwide. Eminem quickly gained popularity in 1999 with his major-label debut album The Slim Shady LP, which won a Grammy Award for Best Rap Album. The following album, The Marshall Mathers LP, became the fastest-selling hip hop album in history.[2] It brought Eminem increased popularity, including his own record label, Shady Records, and brought his group project D12 to mainstream recognition. The Marshall Mathers LP and his third album, The Eminem Show, also won Grammy Awards, and in 2002, he won the Academy Award for Best Original Song for a song in the film 8 Mile, in which he also played the lead. Eminem then went on hiatus after touring in 2005. He released his first album since 2004, Relapse, on May 15, 2009. Eminem had sold more than 77+ million albums worldwide and is the best selling music act of the decade.[3]”
“Eminem has won many Grammy Awards, been praised for having “verbal energy”, high quality of lyricism and been ranked at number nine on MTV’s list of The Greatest MCs of All Time,[91][92] number 13 on the MTV’s “22 Greatest Voices in Music”[93] and number 82 on Rolling Stone’s “The Immortals”.[94] In 2008, the readers of Vibe Magazine voted him “The Best Rapper Alive”.[95] He was also named “Best Rapper Ever” taking down all opponents very easily in a poll which was conducted by music fans on the Vibe website.”
I can keep going if you wish?? lol
so judging by those 77 million + other people that bought his records, I would say he far from sucks…Its funny. People that say he sucks, own atleast a few of his cd’s.
most of america doesnt have a clue what should be listened too or is good. the crap they listen to is all commercialized, regurgitated bullshit. i dont care how many “awards” he won, the guy is terrible.
I definatly wouldnt call him commercialized. becasue 90% of the tracks he put out cant and will never hit a radio, tv, or what ever else mainstream media will use. Remember the first cd and tracks he put out way back when? They were completely different than all the gangsta shit that was flooding the market. A white guy rapping, comeone. People like his over the top, off the wall, dont give a fuck mentality. His CD’s are more comedy than music sometimes, and every track is different. Unlike your everyday rapper: track 1 Mad money yo, track 2 Mad cars yo, track 3 Mad money in mad cars yo, track 4 slap a hoe, track 5 Slappin hoes, with my money, in my car. Its all the same shit, and retards keep buying it and they keep making the same dumb shit. Eminem is different… bottome line.
Every “gangsta” rapper talk about the same shit but to different beats. I came from a hood, with nothing, made mad money from one cd, now i got a big house, cars, girls… all the same story.
I do agree that the “commercialized” consumers, IE people who buy shit for fads, buy into it for just that reason and they have no idea what is “good” or “bad”. All the more reason to set fire to Holister. hahaha
