Where does Eminem stand politically? I was listening to We As Americans and was wondering this. He is clearly in staunch opposition of the Republican party, but he doesn't strike me as a liberal either.

Quote Eminem's politically charged lyrics in this thread and let's try to paint a picture of where he stands. Use lyrics in which he's being serious too.

I'll start with We As Americans...

"They took away my right to bear arms
What I'm 'posed to fight with bare palms?"

"We as a Americans, us as a citizen
Gotta protect ourselves, look at how shit has been
We better check ourselves, livin up in these streets
Through worse and through better health, survivin by any means
We as Americans, us as a citizen
We are samaritans, what do we get us in
We better check ourselves, look at how shit has been
Take a look where you live, this is America
And we are Americans"

The song clears up that he's a supporter of gun rights and is pissed at the government for stripping his right to bear arms after his felony, which adds to my notion that he isn't a liberal.

Never knew they took away his right to bare arms? Did they do that cus of him pistol whipping that guy? And anyone know if he still has it taken away?

He doesn't strike me as someone who has any direct political leaning.

"Not to sound too political or whatever." Sober Eminem is hesitant to say anything on politics, and the answer he gives about Obama is as superficial as you can get.

the clam down line is the first thing i thought of when i read the thread title, unfortunately i was three pages too late. but what if em doesn't actually mean it every time he says something is dope? i mean there's the way he clears his throat when he says stuff like that, and look at what he calls dope... lady gaga, obama, lil wayne, asher roth, paul wall, macklemore, etc. i could be wrong though, he definitely might just like(d) obama a whole lot

imo TES is Ems best album tho

If you're going to turn the argument in to OH HEY BASED COMPARE TES TO THIS FUCKING 2013 ALBUM of course i'm going to reference new Eminem material.

But if we're going to talk about meaning in music, RAP Music and Cancer 4 Cure are better efforts than anything Eminem has done in his life.

The reason you don't hear any decent criticism and just a circle jerk of Emnem-luv is because the people who actually know what good music is stay out of the Eminem section and more importantly, TRshady. I just choose to fight the sea of little brazillian kids who love this garbage so much.

KTT is always going to win niggas, Basedshady out.

When you write retarded shit like this, it's probably because you're a retard.
