Eminem is not "selling out" with his recent ads

Postby FreeSpeech » Feb 8th, '11, 09:13

I just wanted to make this clear. Since when is it "selling out" to use your image to make easy cash? It's not like he is selling out musically (I loathe LTWYL, but I don't accuse him of making it for money).
He already has a deal with Red Bull and probably Nike to wear Air Maxes.
Maybe he really likes Lipton and figure another million to leave his kids and future grandkids couldn't hurt? Money doesn't last forever.

As for Chrysler, he's doing it for Detroit. He's helping bring back business to the city he loves. Yes, he's also doing it for the nine mil, but still...

Compromising your artistic integrity for money while not being true to yourself. A Lipton commercial has nothing to do with Em's music.

NOT DEFINITIVELY.... Moreover, if some people think this, I should say the Em is a "sellout" (ejem, ejem... "nonsenses!!!") in USA cos as some of you know, I'm from Spain and nobody here have seen none of their ads, and Em has fans around the world, not only in USA, so his rapper reputation is still saved... so, anyone wants a coffe??? :coffee:

Oh my God, it`s this, not again.
Just put a price tag on that bitch, delete his music from your PC, burn his CDs and walk your gangsta ass with a gangsta walk into the sunset.

OH MAN SHUT THE FUCK UP. IT WAS JUST SOME ADS HE DID. WHY THE FUCK HAVE YOU GUYS ALWAYS SOMETHING TO COMPLAIN ABOUT. SELL OUT?

I wanted an album so rugged nobody could touch it.
Spent a million a track and went over my budget.
Now how in the fuck am I supposed to get out of debt?

I read your comment and it was as I was hearing Em's voice... anyway, If some people think he's a sellout, who cares? Do you really think this, TheGentlePlayer?? I don`t think so, so who cares what people think if you believe in your own words? Fuck the people, fuck the world, the truth is in your words ;)

I hate "He sold out" threads, that is just idiotic. I was beeing sarcastic in my post, so I thought you missunderstood.

This is the exact reason why STDs are just going unnoticed and spreading at alarming rates. We have got to take this condition seriously. Think about the impact this will have on his fans. I will not let Eminem die.
