I dont like rap music. I went to see the 8-mile movie at the insistence of
friends...Eminem blew me away..he is as honest and straightforward as Jesus.
And talking of his music.....I couldnt catch 7/8ths of what he was saying,
but his sense of timing is great......his delivery style in which he weaves
in and out of beat is extraordinary. I still dont enjoy rap music...I havent
run out to get his record........but I agree with Rolling Stone for the
first time.......he is a genius!
