Dunno, when I first got the album, this was my least favourite song. It's really grown on me, and now is probably my favourite apart from Spend Some Time and Just Lose It.

The line:
Britney Spears has shoulders like a man and I can say that an you'll laugh 'cause there's a puppet on my hand
I think is brilliant. Also kinda shocked at how on the radio they feel the need to censor the word "ass".

What radio station are you listening to?

R1 aren't censoring it.

Ah, my housemate had the Smash Hits chart on on Sunday...it was on there, whatever station that is. They also played Bizarre's new single and then put on Purple Hills, quite possibly the most laughable radio edit I've ever heard...

That song is the best one on the entire album - of course, that may not be a good thing. I can't help it - I like the weird and wonderful.
The video is funny though - I reckon he saw that episode of Angel where he becomes a Muppet.

So, Eminem: what was his last good song (out of all his albums)?

Personally, I think "The Eminem Show" was where he squeezed the last bit out of his talent.

He's not pissing anyone off, he's not rebellious, he's not cussing, he's got no FIRE, man. Artistically, he's got nothing left to say, so he just says the same things in different ways.

But every CD has a funny song, and a haley song, and a slow song where he mentions his family a lot, etc. etc., so people just keep on buying.

EDIT: Don't get me wrong, dude can rap. Seriously. Lyrically and rhythmically, he kicks ass. But there's no meat in the lyrics. You bite in, and it's just hot air, or it tastes just like that song on The Marshall Mathers EP or whatever.

Just an album of the funny songs would keep me happy. I'll have to decide if I want to buy his next album.
You're right though - he has cash and fame an stuff - he's lost his fire and angry edge. Now he's just a whiney celeb.

I like that song he did about the kid beating him up at school. But that was ages ago - the new stuff sucks ass on the whole.
Guilty Conscience was good too, but perhaps that was due to Dre being on it.
Oh, and that South Park track.

Yeah, his 2nd CD is probably one of the top 5 rap records of the last 10 years. Like any good art, it didn't make you feel comfortable.

Perhaps crappy album sales will give him something to spit about in future songs.
D12's second album was pants too.

Shanti418 · Post by **Shanti418** » Tue Jul 05, 2005 7:34 pm

Nope. Can't go backwards. Even if his album DOES sell horribly, he's mature enough now to know that he's still got money and his baby girl, and some friends he can trust, and that's TRUE richness.

Autobloke · Post by **Autobloke** » Tue Jul 05, 2005 7:38 pm

*pukes*

Well, he HAS got his money - THAT'S true richness.

Shaved head.

Although I do have a three-inch-long goatee that I get ketchup in.
And it's ginger.

Unless you meant my arse hair.

Shanti418 · Post by **Shanti418** » Tue Jul 05, 2005 8:07 pm

Oh yeah??? Hey, I have a shaved head too! We're Bald Buddies!!!!

No goat for me though, although I wouldn't mind. I can't have one for work, but more importantly, I'm as deficient at growing facial hair as I am hair on my head. My whole upper region is not good at hair growth.

On the bright side though, I'm beginning to see some on my back...*sigh*

Autobloke · Post by **Autobloke** » Tue Jul 05, 2005 8:14 pm

And I thought you might've made an 'Ass Like That' joke.
I only have a beard 'cos it makes my head look less round.
Unfortunately, a hairy back is the least of my body fur problems.

Just you wait until the damn stuff spreads...

Want some of mine? Seriously, I'm turning into a ******* wookie or something. Good thing the Mrs. seems to dig the burly look.

At least it isn't as bad as this guy:

That isn't a really old photo of me, by the way...

Shanti418 · Post by **Shanti418** » Tue Jul 05, 2005 8:34 pm

Well, I'd rather be hairless like a baby or hairy like a Wookie instead of this in between s***. It's like Gollum up in here.

But as you have stated, you have cunningly captured a member of the opposite sex. AND she is crazy enough to love you for more intangible things then looks. Loco.

Wish I had a scanner. I'm rather clean cut for a furry guy now, but at eighteen I sooo had you beat. Seriously Wolfman Fro and Farmer Chuck Beard. Looked like a giant hairy guru head on some dude's regular sized body. Chill just went up my spine.

Autobloke · Post by **Autobloke** » Tue Jul 05, 2005 8:36 pm

As for my girlfriend...
Er, we split up several weeks ago.
That's right ladies: I'M TOTALLY AVAILABLE!!!

I did say that photo wasn't ME, right?

Yeah, okay. I'll admit, I do kinda like it now.

Pisses all over the turgid **** The Game keeps forcing down my ears.

I caught it on Jo Whiley the other morn, and ass was censored. Not been any time I've heard it after lunchtime, though.

I keep reading the thread title as 'Eminem - Ass Hat' for some reason.
