Rolling Stone, “…Eminem tried to emphasize his status in rap…” What a disgusting opinion it is. Way back to 8 Mile, Legacy, and all other big songs, his work unites people from all over the world who have not listened to one rap before. How dare someone criticize a God delivering his authority?

I do not think there is anything wrong with rap iconic reminding and showing this unsettling world what is rap, a freedom of art written on a scratch of paper fuming with life resilience, passion, and authenticity. So many people nowadays show off how many books, songs, or pictures generated by AI that bring them money while doing less than nothing. I’m stunned why there is a market for AI-generating creations.

We humiliate ourselves by trying to make a fortune effortlessly overnight using AI. We follow for follow instead of following our true beliefs. We risk our lives or others’ for subscribers. The aftermath of COVID-19 is an unconscious regression in mind-growth. Politics nullifies the ethical standard. No one can distinguish the freedom of creating art from exploiting it at others’ expense.

Randomly pick a song from The Death of Slim Shady, I believe no one will not be able to recognize Eminem’s song. He squashes twisted perspectives by skillfully “playing” with the words, rhythms, and metaphors. He defends other rappers and comedians instead of pampering those oversensitive and highly self-serving individuals.

Cancel Love the Way You Lie? How about canceling people who have absurd thoughts here and there?
