Post some translations of modern, polite, PC Eminem quotes

[EminemInsider]

"I've heard you say that you bend the word?"

Yeah. It's just in the enunciation of it. Like, people say that the word "orange" doesn't rhyme with anything. And that kind of pisses me off, because I can think of a lot of things that rhyme with orange."

Translation: I have a hunch you're in over your head here, as non-rap fans rarely understand how rhyming words works in song writing. I used to be satisfied with writing the most complex rhyme schemes known to man, and then I'd go into the booth and rap my lines without thinking about whether or not the average idiot listener had any clue what I was doing, instead focusing on what was essentially voice acting. But after I started popping pills, and then got off the pills, I started to see just how stupid people really are, and I now change the pronunciation of words in order to make it clear as day what I'm doing. This question reminds me of Brain Damage...man was I awesome back then.

What rhymes with orange? I'm trying to think, I can't think of anything.

If you're taking the word at face value, and you just say "orange," nothing is gonna rhyme with it exactly. If you enunciate it, and you make it more than one syllable, you can say, 'I put my orange 4-inch door hinge in storage and ate porridge with George.' You just have to figure out the science to breaking down words."

Translation: Well, to you doofuses who don't understand the difference between "rhymes" in song writing and "technical rhymes," of course not. I will now pull out some of my epic rhymes from Brain Damage and rearrange them so only fans of mine will have the slightest clue I'm not just completely thinking of this stuff off the top of my head.

"Do you not like gay people"

No, I don't have a problem with nobody. I'm just, whatever.

Translation: I'm having deja vu here. Let me think for a minute....nope, it's not the year 2000. What the fuck is going on? Well, I'm not going to sit here and explain that those lines from Criminal are tongue-in-cheek and that becomes clear if you listen to the intro and actually have a brain. What was my answer to this archaic question 10 years ago? Oh, yeah...

[Devil'sAdvocate]

oh shit,Em's an asshole.

[Kill You]

Lol these made me laugh. Can't believe that dumb ass asked if he didn't like gay people.

[Mr Change]

Great thread

[RainMan44]

Lol these made me laugh. Can't believe that dumb ass asked if he didn't like gay people.

What's funny is the dude who asked that, was gay himself. Awkward moment for Em probably.

[Blu]

The question wasn't stupid, it was a smart move because Anderson is a homo. He wanted to make sure he wasn't making Em uncomfortable by being around him.

And Sway asked Em the same question almost 8 years ago & Em's answer was the same: "You know man... I'm like... whatever."

As if Anderson watched every single Em interview on this planet.

Well, he shouldve. Your interviewing one of the most successful artist of all time and you couldnt bother to check out other interviews to see if you are repeating any questions.

Obviously he did, or he wouldn't have known the details of Em's rhyming techniques. I think it was a fair question, Anderson is gay after all. I think it's more interesting that Em's answer to that question is exactly the same eight years later.

This. I was actually pointing out the fact that Em's answer was/is exactly the same. The question was cool & expected.

Would you say that you've matured as an artist?

I mean, I feel like matured as a person or whatever. But musically, I've kind of...immatured.

Translation: Listen to my first 3 mainstream albums, and then play Encore. Seriously, dude...Hailie was face-palming every time "Just Lose It" came on the radio when I was driving her to school. And she was 7 at the time.
