Wonder Raps Eminem
i found an interesting piece of news...
Stevie Wonder has attacked Eminem for ridiculing Michael Jackson in his video for Just Lose It.
Wonder said the white rapper was a hypocrite because he owed his success to poor and black people.
Jackson has already attacked the video, which shows him on a bed with a group of children.
The self-styled King of Pop is facing child molestation charges.
Wonder told Billboard magazine he was "really disappointed" in Eminem.
He told the trade magazine: "Kicking someone when he's down is not a good thing.
"I have much respect for his work, though I don't think he's as good as the late rapper 2Pac. But I was disappointed that he would let himself go to such a level."
The musician added: "He has succeeded on the backs of people predominantly in that lower pay bracket, people of colour.
"So for him to come out like that is bull."

yes i read about that! Stevie's got a point. Boo to Eminem, the Real Slim Shady video was hot but this was just pushing too much luck he thought he had. |

Em has been out of line a lot in his career, but honestly he thrives on controversy and conflict. Em won't apologize for his lyrics or the video, but I think he'll leave a conflict with Stevie alone... then again he rapped about Christopher Reeves on like half his songs lol. The blind jokes and lyrics might be comin.

I'm sorry but EM is only using the ammo that's provided to him. As for Stevie Wonder...I agree...I don't think Em is stupid enough to go that route. If you noticed all his attacks are very calculated and yes he thrives on controversy because controversy sells albums. But as for MJ...he got himself in that mess...now he has to deal with the jokes and antics that goes along with it. Again just expressing my opinion.
Personally...I'm not an Em fan but I do believe in his right to express himself...no matter how controversial.
