It doesnt matter what he says. He is just your typical rapper/rap fan. They are pretty much irrelevant.

#1 who the f cares? people get upset over the littlest things and forget people have the freedom of speech

#2 if you want to be pissed be pissed at his record company because they force him to make these type of songs. He doesn't want to but that's what happens when you sign into the big leagues.

but as long as she says nothing and makes me scream, I'm all in!

He has everyone talking about it. Doesn't matter if it is positive or negative. People are still checking it out regardless.

Come on people, it's just Eminem. He is a shock king with an incredible talent for wordplay. How many of you have ever really listened to Eminem do his thing. Not talking about listening to the words, but listening to the style. Also, as earlier posters have already said, he may be one crazy white boy but he does sing about his life and his take on the things he sees in the media. Then again, sometimes he just says crazy stuff that really makes no sense. The boy's wild, what can I say. Here is an example of some real Eminem.


"Cleanin Out My Closet"

Have you ever been hated or discriminated against, I have, i've been protested and demonstrated
against, picket signs for my wicked rhymes, look at the times, sick is the mind of the
mod cut-profanity kid that's behind, all this commotion, emotions run deep as ocean's explodin',
tempers flaring from parents, just blow 'em off and keep goin', not takin' nothin' from no one,
give 'em hell long as i'm breathin', keep kickin' mod cut in the mornin', an' takin' names in the
evening, leave 'em with a taste as sour as vinegar in they mouth, see they can trigger me but
they'll never figure me out, look at me now, I bet ya' probably sick of me now, ain't you mama,
i'ma make you look so ridiculous now...

[CHORUS]

I'm sorry mama, I never meant to hurt you, I never meant to make you cry, but tonight i'm
cleanin' out my closet, {one more time}, I said i'm sorry mama, I never meant to hurt you, I
never meant to make you cry, but tonight i'm cleanin' out my closet...

I got some skeletons in my closet and I don't know if no one knows it, so before they thrown me
inside my coffin and close it, i'ma expose it, i'll take you back to '73, before I ever had a
multi-platinum sellin' Cd, I was a baby, maybe I was just a couple of months, my mod cut father
must have had his pantie's up in a bunch, cause he split, I wonder if he even kissed me goodbye,
no I don't on second thought, I just mod cut wished he would die, I look at Hailie and I
couldn't picture leavin' her side, even if I hated Kim, I grit my teeth and I'd try, to make it
work with her at least for Hailie's sake, I maybe made some mistakes but i'm only human, but i'm
man enough to face them today, what I did was stupid, no doubt it was dumb, but the smartest
thing I did was take them bullets out of that gun, cause id'a killed 'em, I would have shot
Kim and him both, it's my life, i'd like to welcome y'all to the Eminem show...

[CHORUS]

Now I would never diss my own mama just to get recognition, take a second to listen who you
think this record is dissin', but put yourself in my position, just try to envision witnessin'
your Mama poppin' prescription pills in the kitchen, yellin' that someone's always goin'
through her purse and missin', going through public housing systems, victim of
Munchausen's syndrome, my whole life I was made to believe I was sick when I wasn't 'til I grew
up, now I blew up, it makes you sick to ya' stomach, doesn't it, wasn't it the reason you made
that Cd for me, ma, so you could try to justify the way you treated me, ma, but guess what, your
gettin' older now and it's cold when your lonely, and Nathan's growing up so quick, he's gonna
know that your phoney, and Hailie's getting so big now, you should see her, she's beautiful, but
you'll never see her, she won't even be at your funeral, see what hurts me the most is you won't
admit you was wrong, *****, do your song, keep tellin' yourself that you was a mom, but how dare
you try to take what you didn't help me to get, you selfish *****, I hope you ****in' burn in
hell for this ****, remember when Ronnie died and you said you wished it was me, well guess
what, I am dead, dead to you as can be...

His entire discography is basically breaking the fourth wall about society and himself. He's fully aware of what people think of him.

Palin and Eminem are two of a kind. No surprises here.
