You have no real argument beyond the fact that you don't like him anymore, I atleast have the critics on my side.

Excuse me for being "ignorant" of my favorite genre of music.

the evidence is the ****in music. do you even know what i mean by being bad lyrically? i'm talking lyricism. you know, multiple syllable rhyming, alliteration, assonance rhyming ect ect.. the key to poetry and rap. The difference between a bad rapper and a good rapper.

if you think this...

"I murder a rhyme one word at a time
You never, heard of a mind as perverted as mine
You better, get rid of that nine, it ain't gonna help
What good's it gonna do against a man that strangles himself?"

and this...

"I feel like I'm walking a tight rope, without a circus net
I'm popping perkasets, I'm a nervous wreck
I deserve respect; but I work a sweat for this worthless check
Bout to burst this tech, at somebody to reverse this debt
Minimum wage got my adrenaline caged
Full of venom and rage
Especially when I'm engaged
And my daughter's down to her last diaper
That's got my ass hyper
I pray that god answers, maybe I'll ask nicer"

is comparable to...

this...

"Locked in Mariah's wine cellar all I had for lunch, Was red wine, more red wine, and captain crunch,
Red wine for breakfast and for brunch, And to soak it up and in between snack, crackers to munch,
Mariah, what's ever happened to us, why did we have to break up, All I asked for was a glass of punch,
You see, I never really ask for much,
I can't imagine what's going through your mind after such,
A nasty breakup with that Laftin Hunkler, Weisman Gale, Nick Cannon better back the **** up,"

and this...

"All my west side bitches throw it up Put a balloon inside your pussy... queef and blow it up
Man I think that he just fell off the teeth and showing up
So you better change the station
To keep from throwing up Man you seen it all before your all too familiar with it
There's a penis on the floor and two balls so you know who did it
You know you with it girl don't front, oh no you didn't I won right by the pussy cat dolls when call you kitten
I'll pee on rihanna see man I do what I wanna
Spray perfume in the sauna room
crazy glue in Madonna to The lazy boy so called fold her in two and sit on her
Imagine if visual for that man Who would've thoughta
Could ever be such a relentless prick
And leashin his fingers For the chicks who waltz
She looks like she outlived her life sentence I never meant this, rhyme to be so offensive
If you werent so defensive it wouldn't be
Your so sensitive

Then lyricism is something either you don't understand or choose to ignore.

The difference between eminem up until 2002 and eminem today is like the difference between Big L and 50 cent or Big pun and chamillionaire.

Yes, relapse was a step up from encore but that doesn't make it good. If the sh!t i took this morning looks nicer than the sh!t i took last night it doesn't make this mornings sh!t a work of ****in art.
