Cool Hello guys!

As appropriate, I will introduce myself here.

My name is Tommy, live in Holland, 20 years old, website owner and music fan.

My favourite bands/artists are

Led Zeppelin
The Rolling Stones
Guns N Roses
ZZ Top
AC/DC
Eminem

I signed myself up here because I just like to talk about music and I want to learn more about the opinion of other music fans/artists. Also I think you guys can help me grow my website by giving me feedback.

Looking forward to get in touch with you!

How do you feel about the completely unsubtle homophobic assertions littered throughout Eminem's music? Also, what is your viewpoint on the hyper misogynistic nature of his lyricism, or the violence glamorization scattered throughout? Are you comfortable being labeled as a violent, misogynistic homophobe, or are you simply ignorant to the immature childish redundancy that is Eminem's music?

Welcome

Dude, I ****ing love homophobic and misogynistic violence. It gets me up in the morning and keeps me going well into the night. Without it, I just don't know where I'd be right now. Probably being a dick to some guy on the internet just because he said he liked Eminem. Thank god for homophobic and misogynistic violence.

Hello Tom,

I like the Stones, Led Zep and ZZ Top, tbh don't I listen to the other three. I like Space Siren, a shoegaze band from Holland. Any favorite bands from Holland you would like to mention?

Haha, thanks!

You are right that he has some strange lyricism throughout his music. But I think you didn't hear every lyric he wrote. He is actually mocking about ehm... everyone... He says he is gay himself all the time... Just for mocking's sake (or he is really gay.. I don't mind).

You should listen to his song Bad Guy. Also Guts Over Fear is a song where he says sorry and he feels bad. I think he isn't as bad as you described him. He is not an angel, but I think good music is not about the goodness of the person behind the music, because we don't know him that well.. I see myself as a nice guy, but my if I make music, it is terrible.... haha

Space Siren, never heard of 'em. I should listen to that. There aren't many good bands in Holland IMO. There are a few good artists/singers, but no bands.
