Well i know alot of people who were listening hophop before eminem was there. I think its true that em got a lot of people into hiphop but before em ther were RunDMC, NWA, PAC, and alot more.

Have to agree Em made alot of people listen hiphop so it wouldnt be as big as it is today. I know i wouldnt be listening hiphop without em...

:confusion:

Haha rap wouldn't be as big, I think it does have to do with white people, but I still think white people would be listening in the same amount of numbers, but I think em has a lot of white kids who liked punk and rock and shit like that who like him but dont like other rap music.

Up your mothers ass crack.

Are you fucking retarded? Hip Hop outside of the U.S existed long before Eminem did. And fucking no it didn't get famous because of Eminem >_> Most Hip Hop outside the U.S is still underground as fuck. Just to name a few countries; Australia, Russia, UK, & France.
