Foreign Em Fans

Postby Peace_Maker » Aug 5th, '10, 05:55

I've seen posts where some people obviously don't have English as their primary language. How can you praise a man you barely understand?

Yes but she's singing. It's beautiful, the pitch, the tone. Rap is mainly about lyrics. I understand liking a party song and not understanding it, good beat, but how the fuck could someone like Kim if they can't understand it?

if I didn't understand Kim I knew it would still haunt me for rest of the day, his voice alone makes the song scary & unforgettable.

and people obviously don't listen to Eminem just for the lyric, it's common sense

Okay I'm kinda sick of the fuckers who speak perfect English giving their perspective.

You know what dude, I tell you which song got me completely. It was "The Real Slim Shady". I just really enjoyed that song, the way it sounded, since I didn't know much English 11-12 years ago. But it just sounded amazing. I went to lyrics sites and translated the song into my language. Even today I ready the lyrics a few times just to fully get the songs. But I was so happy to be able to understand rap songs after a few years of living here.
So yeah, the beats what get people who don't understand english, then they probably translate the songs.
By the way they teach english from 1st grade on in Europe, so most of them understand words and sentences.
Hope that sort of explained it. :wave:

I've been in the US for 12 years now, and been learning English since kindergarten, I'm from Hungary originally.

It was a middle school test, it didn't go past 12 on the scale.

I'm not conceited, or bragging, or even care. He made a very blunt statement.

Hi, everybody. Im from Russia and have been listening to Em since i was 11.
You know, i visit this resource often and its very popular in russia, so you have what you can be proud of))
Speaking of understanding Em lyrics, its not so hard if you learn language for a long period of time.
I dont know a thing about other russian fans, but i clearly understand 60 per cent of what he spits if its a new song. The other 40 i look up in the lyrics and thats it)))
Theres nothing strange about it)

P.S Oh.. Finally i decided to register on this forum

I don't understand Olivia Lufkin, Ayumi Hamasaki and other Japanese singers too. :unsure:

And it doesn't matter to me. It's music to my ears. :o

English is not my pimary language, but music and movies and tv shows helped me learn it. Especially rap music which is all about lyrics.

We understand english just like our own language (we don't know every english word but Em rarely uses some complicated words, only word I checked on recovery was "antidisestablishmentarianism",and yes I knew that the word ain't important for understanding the joke))
lol you probably suck at languages.
I will not fall,
I will stand tall,
Feels like no one could beat me.

I hope this will help you NOTICE MY POST !!!!!!!!
