i think that the media is controling the people of america today. In my opinion this is so stupid that people have to be cool and not to express their individuality.

America has a mania for political correctness, but it's very selective. Eminem makes antigay comments, and he's attacked for it; Arnold Schwarzenegger makes antigay comments (or at least many perceive the comments to be antigay) and he's elected governor. No, everything Eminem says is not OK. Neither is everything that Charleton Heston or Allen Iverson or Alan Greenspan says, but that doesn't diminish their right to say it, to participate in a national dialogue, to do their work and, if they're good at it, to be acknowledged for it. Besides, the Grammy isn't awarded for being morally upright, but for selling records. It's highly commercial, and most would argue that it has little to do with quality anyway, either artistic or moral.

i think its a disgrace how he won the grammy awards. i never really listened to his "music" but his horrid slur of speec, murdering his mother, including the digrating things towards women, he should not have won any sort of award. its a sham to me how in america a person who talkes/raps/sings like this gets an award;grammy award.

You know He is the trashed man that I don't admire but he is totally inappriate against Gays and Lesbians. Even though he is trying to use the F-word and some profanity. Come On this time that dude win the Grammy heck no because you a dozen or more would start clubbing him and sue him.

yeah im posting this kinda late....but anywho i think Eminem is an awesome artsit who at times...well most times expresses himself in a anti gay sorta way...but really when you look at it, listen to the people who are around you. ya know...who doesnt say "oh thats so gay..."
or "wow youre hella gay" or something stupid like that...i know i do. So my point is its like, who cares? ...alot of his songs are about his childhood and family background...so get over the gay thing....if youre against it...dont worry about man just dont listen to it. anywho....so im just saying in my opinion...he deserved the grammy |

well this topic has stirred up alot of different opinions and everyone has their point but i still stand by my comment of that people target him because of race. Many other artists have said the same thing and they only go after eminem. That sort of makes you think twice on why the ADDAG somthin is mad at him

Becuase Eminem is a celebrity/artist, i believe he thinks he can express his perspective of life and say whatever he wants. Like we said in class, he is taking advantage of his position. - Patrick Tiu

I feel that Eminem should have won because you don't understand the lyrics unless you understand the mans life.

heres the thing.. do you think he won because of those 2 songs? i really dont think so, infact, ive never even heard of them before we read about them. those were on the album, i know, and i totally disagree with those songs. in fact, it makes me mad that he said those awful things. but i had never even heard of those two songs before until now. i think he deserves to keep the grammy, but he should at least apologize for what he has said. and if he still feels tht way towards homosexuals, then he can keep it to himself. i guess i should have elaborated more. and im sorry if i sounded offensive and rude.

He may signify a lot of his opinion in his lyrics, doesn't mean he may be a good rapper. I think (after reading the article) he wanted to make the song a interesting one in order to keep people into what he may be pointing. In all, i think he may have had a right to have a Grammy Award, even if he was judging people by their sexual orientation.

I believe that Eminem should have one the grammies that he did because his stance on gays and violence and women are his right and he has the right to let people know what he believes. Yes, they are degrading and inhumane, but that is only mine and many others' opinion. I believe that his lyrics aren't meant to be taken seriously, considering the context they are put in and the comedic sound effects he adds to them.

I think he should of won. He had what it took to win. Sure the lyrics aren't clean, but he touched many peoples lives. His music means something, Every word is there for a reason. Therefore, he deserved to win

I don't think he would win the Grammys because Eminem has showed a hatred song to slang Gays and Lesbian his songs represent terror.

sure he shouldn't have won, technically. But when it comes down to it, he won the hearts/ears of many people, he did it by manipulating his music and making it sound not so bad. in the eyes of many people the things he say may sound wrong, but many more people don't care and just listen for the beat and if they do listen to the lyrics it doesn't necessarily bother them. Eminem is probably one of the last people anyone is going to take seriously anyway, let alone his music.

i think maybe he should have won because, like any other music person, he got alot of fans to listen to his music, and if everyone cared about what words were said, then no one would listen. they listen to the beat, not the words.
