So even when he crawls out of his own hole of woe-is-me...

Dre might have been involved in beat-making but I don’t believe anyone (least of all either of those guys) ghost-wrote the verses. Just... no way. Dre hasn’t written a verse in decades I’m pretty sure, and has always been much better delivering something someone else wrote (he’s actually great at that). And Cube,…

I like the Eminem/Pink collaboration Revenge.

Still better than any b.s. Nikki manaj has put out. Way better actually. Eminem is actually an icon whether you want to admit it or not, he’s overcome obstacles that 90% of people wouldn’t bounce back from. People don’t like Eminem because he says whatever he feels, regardless of who hears it. I respect him for that.…

Coming from a generation of “bad and boujee!” where rhyming lyrics mean more than meaningful ones because your brain isn’t developed enough to understand it. This is a review of someone whose idea of “great” lyrics consist of “yeah yeah” or has the flow of humpty dumpty. You want to clown on the fact he uses samples…

(“Makes me feel like I don’t belong or something, ooh / I think I might’ve just stumbled on something new,” serves as his spider bite or overdose…

I don’t disagree with that. I’m not saying we won’t or shouldn’t handle it delicately. I just think there’s this tendency for people to equate not thinking about or dealing with it in literature or art (or at best always presenting it as obvious exploitation/abuse) as having the only real morally viable position on…

Your post is quite thoughtful. I also think that, as the internet has turned society in some ways back into a small town mindset where everyone is in everyone business, that the issue of the desire of societal control over sexuality cannot be ignored either. There is no less pressure now than there ever was that…

Yeah o go back and forth with this scene. I appreciate you’re commentary.

Well, there was never any chance that scene was going to make it into the movie, which is fine by me. However, I do think we have a tendency to want to filter childhood sexuality through some kind of sanitizing lens that at the very least paints it in idealistic terms and at worst outright desexualizes kids so that we…
