@Rogelio Mora
im here a year later to say that you're wrong.
the officers would have had the "right" to just forcefully gain entry to the house, but instead knocked and announced themselves.

the guy started to shoot at the officers through the door, hitting one of them in the leg, but in a place where an artery is, meaning he could have died. The officers returned fire, killing the girl who was near the guy.

He was responsible for killing her. He thought it was a good idea to shoot at Police, his girlfriend paid the price. they had the "right" to arrest him, as he was a violent criminal who had objectively broken the law. people like him is why we need police in the first place. if he had just surrendered himself to the police and taken responsibility for his actions, the girl would still be alive.

and that was (and will be again in the future) the problem with BLM. They claim instances of police brutality or racially motivated attacks that later
turn out to be nothing but lies - but nobody actually gets told the update. they spread misinformation and fuel racial division, just another part of the cancer that is rotting away America.eaas

dont trust them. they are grifters, and they dont care about you. if the systemic issues are to be fixed, America needs a movement that is racially diverse and actually wants to heal America's racial divide, not perpetuate it.

@Bluelit "if he was black he woulda sold half"
Yeah, that's just as much BS coming from you as it is when it comes from him. I know you guys never get tired of condescending to black people, but damn...
If you think black rap and hip-hop artists were suffering in some corner before Eminem, you're completely detached from reality.
I guess Run-DMC, Will Smith, Salt-n-Pepa, LL, NWA, Public Enemy, Tone Loc, Dre, Snoop,etc etc etc never got all those platinum and gold albums and singles?
White kids were all over it like Marshall Blathers on a bottle of pills. Most kids'parents were thankful they weren't into heavy metal, worshiping Satan and sacrificing babies, in the late eighties and early nineties. Rap was mostly seen as relatively inoffensive in most regards, unless parents got an earful of 2 Live Crew, or NWA's profanity, and even then it was no contest for which they'd prefer to have their kids listening to.

In fact, the group that probably got some of the biggest pushback were White (well, Jewish, but close enough)-- the Beastie Boys. When "License to Ill" hit, parents s--t their pants. But again, they were at least a little grateful that Eric & Erica weren't having orgies in the graveyard and burning churches. Even the whole G-Funk thing didn't get as much pushback as it could have, because parents usually didn't catch the references to a lot of the stuff in the lyrics, and even if they did, it was just smoking a little weed and sipping gin. And of course, just like today (only to a lesser degree) blacks were protected by the fact that nobody wanted to be seen as racist. .. that, and the same soft prejudice of low expectations that you (and almost everyone elsethese days) exhibit.. "Well, at least they're not going all Black Panther-y, or robbing everyone and selling crack... Smoking reefer and making videos with half-naked women isn't so bad, considering ” seemed to be the underlying idea with some parents, in my experience.

Anyway, I've rambled too long (damn you Adderall) just to say that "woulda sold half" is BS, and so is the whole idea of "White privilege", especially when it comes to entertainment, and especially especially when it comes to rap/hip-hop.

I never would've dreamed in a million years I'd see
So many motherfuckin' people who feel like me
Who share the same views and the same exact beliefs
It's like a fuckin' army marchin' in back of me
So many lives I touch, so much anger aimed
In no particular direction
Just sprays and sprays
And straight through your radio waves it plays and plays
'Til it stays stuck in your head for days and days
Who woulda thought
Standing in this mirror bleachin' my hair, with some peroxide
Reachin' for a t-shirt to wear
That I would catapult to the forefront of rap like this?
How could I predict my words would have an impact like this
I must've struck a chord, with somebody up in the office
Cause Congress keeps telling me I ain't causin' nothin' but problems
And now they're sayin' I'm in trouble with the government
I'm lovin' it, I shoveled shit all my life, and now I'm dumping it on

White America!
I could be one of your kids
White America!
Little Eric looks just like this
White America!
Erica loves my shit
I go to T-R-L, look how many hugs I get
White America!
I Could be one of your kids
White America!
Little Eric looks just like this
White America!
Erica loves my shit
I go to T-R-L, look how many hugs I get

Look at these eyes baby blue baby just like yourself
If they were brown
Shady lose
Shady sits on the shelf
But Shady's cute
Shady knew Shady's dimples would help
Make ladies swoon baby (ooh baby)
Look at myself!
Let's do the math
If I was black I woulda sold half
I ain't have to graduate from Lincoln High School to know that
But I can rap so fuck school
I'm too cool to go back
Gimme the mic
Show me where the fuckin' studios at
When I was underground
No one gave a fuck I was white
No labels wanted to sign me
Almost gave up, I was like "Fuck it"
Until I met Dre
The only one who looked past
Gave me a chance
And I lit a fire up under his ass
Helped him get back to the top
Every fan black that I got
Was probably his in exchange for every white fan that hes got
Like damn we just swapped
Sittin' back look at this shit wow
I'm like "My skin, is it startin' to work to my benefit now?"

White America!
I could be one of your kids
White America!
Little Eric looks just like this
White America!
Erica loves my shit
I go to T-R-L, look how many hugs I get
White America!
I Could be one of your kids
White America!
Little Eric looks just like this
White America!
Erica loves my shit
I go to T-R-L, look how many hugs I get

See the problem is I speak to suburban kids
Who otherwise woulda never knew these words exist
Whose mom's probably woulda never gave two squirts of piss
'Til I created so much muthafuckin' turbulence
Straight out the tube right into ya livin' rooms I came
And kids flipped
When they knew I was produced by Dre
That's all it took
And they were instantly hooked right in
And they connected wit' me too because I looked like them
That's why they put my lyrics up under this microscope
Searchin' wit' a fine toothed comb
It's like this rope waitin' to choke
Tightenin' around my throat
Watchin' me while I write this like
"I dont like this, no!"
All I hear is
Lyrics lyrics constant controversy
Sponsors workin' round the clock
To try to stop my concerts early
Surely hip hop is never a problem
In Harlem only in Boston
After it bothered ya fathers
Of daughters startin' to blossom
Now I'm catchin' the flack from these activists
When they raggin'
Actin' like I'm the first rapper to smack a bitch and say fagot
Shit,
Just look at me like I'm ya closest pal
A poster child
The muthafuckin' spokesman now for

White America!
I could be one of your kids
White America!
Little Eric looks just like this
White America!
Erica loves my shit
I go to T-R-L, look how many hugs I get
White America!
I Could be one of your kids
White America!
Little Eric looks just like this
White America!
Erica loves my shit
I go to T-R-L, look how many hugs I get

So to the parents of America
I am the derringer aimed at little Erica
To attack her character
The ring leader of the circus of worthless pawns
Sent to lead the march right up to the steps of Congress
And piss on the lawns of the White House
To burn the casket and replace it with a parental advisory sticker
To spit liquor in the faces of this democracy of hypocrisy
Fuck you Ms. Cheney
Fuck you tipper Gore
Fuck you with the free-ness of speech this
Divided states of embarrassment will allow me to have
Fuck you!

Ha ha ha! I'm just playin' America, you know I love you

3:37 - THIS is what is a true flow, not fast rapping, but actual rhythm, with words that resonate one with the other and convey an idea . That's the kind of thing (among many others) that made Eminem such a huge influence on hip hop as a whole, specially in his early years. Old Em is untouchable.

It's not that new em isn't as good as old em. It's that after 2 or more decades as a musician. you've done everything you possibly can to get any better at it. Em cant top himself and that's where this ignorant opinion comes from. Know yourself and why your brain deduces entertainment knowledge and politics the way it does. If you're truly talented as a rapper you can emulate old em with your own perspective in the lyrics. But nobody including em can top it. He wasn't kidding when he said "I'll be one tough act to follow"

keep in mind through this discussion that the United States and it's philosophies are not the only one's that exist. There are other players in the mix, especially post-covid. Always keep an eye out for intentional division or hypocrisy in the weeds.

There is racial division in the US. This is true. However, for any critical thinkers out there: How much could fanning those flames benefit someone? Could any groups benefit from average people fighting? Are we seeing any real solutions from these discussions or from our leaders?

Timer the cheese guy

@CM77 bahaha, white americans DEFINITELY didn't like black rap music back then for the exact reason. Trust me, I've dealt with plenty of older white folks who would refer to it as "Ni**er noise", it was hated by them in general for a long time until the late 90s/ 2000s for the younger generation of white americans such as early millenials. Up until then rap music was only for black people (which makes sense, they did create the genre). Once eminem came out whites became more interested in rap, and now their parents became concerned because the once black-centric rap music genre started branching out to their race.

Also, it's not white people's fault that the black community didn't become outraged over the lyrics being pushed in their race's music. Racial tensions weren't much different than now, and the black community would not have listened to the cries and complaints over the lyrics in their race/culture's music from the white man anyway

I think this song is a good observation on White America from a white outsider (Eminem). Because Eminem grew up in a lower class and around mostly blacks people, he saw white america and the suburbs from the outside. With fame, he became a reluctant symbol for white teens across the country. This included many teens in affluent suburbs that are predominantly white. Of course he was riddled with controversy and a lot of white parents were scared of their kids listening to Em’s music. However, he was enormously successful in large part to his skin and other white kids identifying with him. Eminem was cognizant of that. Thus the lyrics to this song.

This song perfectly captures my feelings about YouTube and their hypocrisy of censorship. And bullshit copyright strikes they give to reactors(Aba and Preach in particular) and are bias when it comes to certain Youtubers being censored. God bless you, Eminem.😘❤🤗

Maybe 5% of the song is about the government, but the rest is about white America. The white people of America who’s children were being introduced to hardcore rap through Eminem and they were afraid he had a negative influence over them.

Being in audio production and technology certification at college, the way the background is set up, it’s meant to uphold the melody, and set the progression and mood of calm anger, and the vocals are doubled on certain words and most of the vocals, and it makes it sound bigger, or more impactful. I gotta say, Dre really knows what the fuck he’s doin, and Eminem does too, shit

Eminem was calling out systemic opression since the early 2000s.

Some of the lyrics are kinda contradictory.. He says in one line that ‘if he was black then he would’ve sold half’- then in the very next one he says ‘because he was white no label would even give him a chance until Dre looked past his skin color.
But everyone in this comment section is acting like Eminem is this sjw character.. He’s rapped about the racism he’s received from black people in the community he grew up in and in the rap Industry multiple times , and he’s rapped about the racism he’s seen black people experience..

Shane Taylor

@Tim Nelson the song is quite literally about politics and other things related to oppression. I mean the guy says he hates trump at the start of the song live.

You seem to be confused what politics is....

Basically, I'm not a native speaker, and I learned the lyrics to this song at age 15 when I was too young and unable to understand what he meant. But then somewhere around 25 I realized I could then understand everything he was saying, I realized how he nailed it and hit the bull's eye perfectly

@GoneTomorrowSongerNPoet He's saying no one at the time was protesting rappers saying things about hitting women or doing drugs or killing people etc until Eminem did it, because Eminem's audience was more white kids. He's calling out the hypocrisy and racism of people who thought "those things are okay for black kids to listen to but not my little white angels."

The whole point of this song was to say white people don’t care when black rappers are derogatory because black children are listening. Whereas they made a huge deal out of Eminem because now their white children were listening and relating to it. White America didn’t like that, even though Eminem wasn’t the first to use a lot of these words in songs, but because he was white more white people were listening and being influenced. And White America was not happy about it!

Ismael

@Aleister Broley you left out important context, aka another line in the song. “They connected with me too because I looked like them”. Again, one of the massive reasons Eminem is so accessible is because back then he was one of the few truly skilled and supported white rappers. There were others, you mentioned the Beastie Boys, but their style was a lot different. Even today you can find a shit ton of Eminem fans who don’t listen to any other hip hop. And if they do, it’s probably someone like NF or Tom MacDonald (two very different rappers themselves but they’re on opposite ends of the same “influenced by Eminem” spectrum). Eminem was accessible and “relatable” to people from the suburbs, aka middle class white people, because there was much more of a stigma around hip hop and rap 20-30 years ago than there was now, and there still is in a lot of parts of the country. Em in this song points out his very white features and his pretty face, the two of them combining to make him look more likeable to white people. “I would’ve sold half” is not a literal claim, he would’ve still been a massive hit, but to this day white people who don’t listen to a whole lot of other rap are a huge portion of his fanbase, and it was no different back then. Maybe he wouldn’t have only sold half, but it would have been a lot less. And that’s the point he’s making with that line. No one believes he wouldn’t have been popular or talented had he been black, or that all of his white fans don’t listen to anyone else or no white people listened to other rappers back then. That’s not the point.

One of the greatest songs for an anthem. It showed our anger as kids to live in our time. That and the first mm cd. He was our voice of saddness and anger. For an islander growing up in white america. I wish parents would relate. It wasn't about hippie stuff from 90s to 2005. It was about us asking and questioning our existance and porpoise. We no longer wanted to be confused. Hence I believe the system saved me. All these kids wanting stuff, I relised, I had everything i needed. The real alpha is the man in the suit, whom only appears like a ghost. We know those men are there but, somehow they don't exist...
