white people loved that edgy s*** back in the day

because he overturned the entire industry, guy is revolutionary

Different eras

He was marketed as the face of middle class america's angst and that s*** sells

because he was popular?

This might be the worst comparison ever

there’s like 200 million white ppl in America. Split that in half, quarter, tenth, hundredth you still going platinum

There is NO WHITE RAPPER who sold 1/10 of Eminem, the skin color argument is invalid.

BTW, Eminem's archetype is good, as are 50 Cent and Rick Ross

Paul wall and mc serch didn't have that problem either but go off

uuh how?

But anyways guy was edgy as s***, people protested and it made people wanna listen to him that seems right

Also had massive backing from interscope and Dre. Plus him being white it’s recipe for success

They just wanna whine about white white white, zero arguments whatsoever

Those white rappers never catered to angry white straight males like Eminem did...

Most white people don’t even know who they are lmao

Bigger the fanbase base the more casual it will be

How?

Eminem has a longevity of 20+ years, I cant believe I have to explain that

yeah but no white rapper has also been as edgy/gimmicky while also being skilled at rapping so he did have that going for him I guess

It’s always either one or the other w white rappers

you’re either a lyrical miracle or a comedy/meme rapper

You have zero arguments to counter the fact they Eminem benefitted from being white...
Why would he say so himself on several songs?

far, far, far more people actively supporting him than actively opposing him. Everyone else was just indifferent

this is the answer tbh

I'm not saying he didn't benefitted but it's impossible to have a serious conversation about Eminem here, it's just hate and super corny jokes

Because Eminem became the standard before eminem it was vanilla ice.

You probably have never cared to look into the reason for vanilla ice not being in demand anymore...
But it's the others that have no arguments right?

he and lil baby both 5'8
jus something to think about
