I wouldn't call them pop,more like songs with a catchy hook or beat.That beeing said...more radio friendly songs would be LTWYL(obviously),Seduction(i can see this beeing a single)and Spacebound(mostly cause of the hook tho)

(It is a pop song btw, although it's a decent one.)


No it's not a pop song.

If you think it's a pop song, you don't know what pop is.

What you mean is it's catchier and more accessible. But the content on that song can never ever make it pop. It's not in anyway shape or form pop.

LTWYL is classified as a hip hop song. Pop is an entirely different genre than what LTWYL is. No one would be saying it was a pop song if Rihanna wasn't on it. Ri Ri doesn't make songs pop

It's successful because it's catchy and it's a good song. It is, by no means, a pop song. Eminem does not make pop songs, and he never has and probably never will

Word on Satan, as I drop, fall to my knees before this Quija board and I pray
Now I lay me down to sleep
I do this shit in my sleep, I’m sleepin' now, imagine if I awake

Although I'm a Stan myself (I openly admit this), this forum is teaching me just exactly why the majority of people hate Eminem fans. I'm beginning to start to do so myself.

Love The Way You Lie is a pop song, no question about it. If that's what you people define as "hip hop", then hip hop has gone softer than I thought.

It's a decent song, for what it is. I'm not hating. But would be embarrassing to listen to in public, or openly admit you like it when it's core target audience =

^ those the type of people who spend all day updating their facebook status with "YOU EVER LOVED SOMEBODY SO MUCH, YOU CAN BARELY BREATE WHEN YOU'RE WITH THEM OMGGGG EMINEM <3"

That is one of the main reasons I hate LTYL & Space Bound. During the summer every dumbass teen bitch was posting that shit as their status and playing that song in the house/car everytime we'd hang out.

Pop music (a term that originally derives from an abbreviation of "popular") is usually understood to be commercially recorded music, often oriented towards a youth market, usually consisting of relatively short, simple songs utilizing technological innovations to produce new variations on existing themes.

I would call LTWYL a pop song just off of the beat and chorus alone. Without Me could be considered pop. Recovery overall is a pretty poppy sounding albums with the production, it sounds like something you would hear on the radio. I'm not saying that's good or bad it it's true. None of his first 5 albums had those kind of songs other than the huge radio hits. I would prefer he goes back to real hip-hop producers, the only current one he's that's has any talent is Kalil.

First of all the cursing doesn't add to your claim, but the fact he ends the song by saying what does, as well as the ending of space bound since people have mentioned it, is not at all pop. Just sayin :coffee:

Brain damage, ever since the day I was born
Drugs is what they used to say I was on
They say I never knew which way I was goin
But everywhere I go they keep playin my song.

Why would Space Bound and LTWYL be pop songs? Couse they are about love? Those are more hip hop then most of RAPPERS today.
You can rap about love, not always about how goddamn gangsta you are, who you will kill and how big your bling is.
And dumbass teen bitches love LTWYL couse of Rhianna, not the lyrics. And lyrics make that song. And great lyrics are what hip hop is all about. STOP BEING STUPID AND NARROW-MINDED.

I hate songs about love, period. I don't like any of those songs about his daughter either I listen to him to hear crazy psycho shit. You may like those songs, thats your opinion but I hate them.

Pop music definition:
Music intended for a wide audience

Some lyrics from the song:
Next time I'm pissed, I'll aim my fist at the dry wall

So he's saying, next time they have a tumultuousness argument, he won't punch her in the face as he did last time. That is NOT for a wide audience, that is NOT watered down.

You can call the song cheap, tacky, rubbish, bad, catchy, amazing... Whatever, but a song about domestic violence with realistic, real to life lyricism can not be called a pop song. It is not a pop song, no matter how big it gets or who's on the fucking chorus.

That's just the content alone which makes it not a pop song. The content is not pop music and Eminem is RAPPING on it. That makes it hip-hop. It's hip-hop, and it's not watered down hip-hop. Being catchy doesn't make something pop.

"Don't ever tell me what I can and what I can't say
Or change cause of the age range in my fan base
Like I give a fuck who's buying this shit" :shifty:
Having a bunch of teenage girls liking the song doesn't make it pop.When i was their age i liked California Love or Ring ding dong(Dr. Dre),does that make them pop?Popular yes,but not pop-the genre.If it wasn't for the hook with Rhianna no one would ever think it was a pop song IMO :flower:
