The guy's good but i'm surprised he's got popularity from it.

Most people who insert themselves into famous songs look like wannabes and get laughed at.

What Eminem SHOULD do is resign drop all his whack ass artists (excluding Bizzare), resign Obie, and focus on giving his fans the BEST CD he could possibly give us.

Here's the thing about this guy. He's decent, good even, but he'd never make it past the underground. He doesn't have a listener friendly sound. People on here will think he's good, or maybe even sick, but do you think light rap listeners will vibe with his voice? He actually sounds like a white Canibus and god help us all if we have another delivery like that. He's too underground and too raw to become a mainstream rapper. I feel like he'd have to completely change his style to become appealing to a mass audience and I wouldn't want him to be forced to do that. Also, while the remix was decent, he doesn't sound good with Em or Dre. He wouldn't sound good with anyone in G-Unit and he would only sound ok with D12. He'd be a terrible fit. Em could find better talent on this site that would fit his mold far far far better.

Good Point- I like the point about balancing quality with popularity. Some artists are really good yet their personas are weak for a cut-throat $$$ music business and others are style savvy but do not have the quality to back them up!! As for nuturing and producing potential artists, I again agree about making sure that they fit the 'family' or group fold otherwise it would be hard to design and sell the artist and although record companies like Shady Records have been classed as a Botique (I know that is spelt wrong) company, it is their responsibility to cover all aspects before signing a person on otherwise it would be a waste of time and increase tension among the label (Stat Quo) as well as bring the label down.

Overall, I am interested in what happens over this year- Basically it is make or break time so I hope everyone steps up their game (no pun intended) and we all get some good quality music...
