I did not know he was a poet!
Rap lyrics would read as poetry if not set to music. It's video that has made the rapper and his poetry more accessible to a wider audience. Personally I liked Eminem when he first came out. Bold, uncensored, irreverent. He could rap with the best of the black rap artists.

I really liked some of his stuff too - have not heard it much lately.

Not cheating at all IMO. Have mercy, I read a ton of stuff. A wide variety of books. And yet I still have paperback copies of Mr.Kings books so I can read them throughout the year and not mess up my hardbacks. :)

My kids get my iPod :)D) and put all kinds of music on it. I don't do the rap or hip hop too much though.

Peace.

Yea it's been going around for decades. One thing though, it one interview he was asked about it and he didn't refute it or say it was true. He just walked away. Some people say he was and some people like in articles mentioned above that he wasnt. But neither have been confirmed or denied by military, himself or his family.

My questions is, Why is this written in past tense? He's still bold, uncensored, irreverent. He's still kickin it!
(Sorry, I'm biased.)

I haven't kept up with his current work. I stopped listening when he made fun of Michael Jackson.

I didn't appreciate what he said about Iggy Azalea. I'm not a fan of her music, but he was crude about her.

It's what I'm saying. He also "dissed" his mother. We have a saying. Dirty laundry you wash at home.
Lol! That's his point. He makes fun of everyone; no one is safe. That's why he's called irreverent, and why most people hate him. He's never afraid to cross the line...it's why I love him. The more uncomfortable he makes others simply by rhyming a few words, the more I like him.

I see your point. However, I miss the old Slim Shady.
