This is bad!

I made it to the 2:36 mark.:scowl:


Not a big listener of Eminem, or much rap anymore, but at least you can see he has talent, and really belongs there...and he has something to say.

This guy has nothing to say that's worth mentioning, and he makes Vanilla Ice look like DR DRE in comparison...

"I'm rich...yeah! Take that! ..and I didn't even have to earn it!'

:rolleyes:
 
That is absolutely hilarious!

First, that he even gets to do that in front of an audience, only because he is married to Britney Spears.

Second, because he is absolutely horrible,

and Third, because people still cheered for him as if he were actually good.

They probably appreciate how brave you have to be, to make that much of a fool of yourself!! :D


PS... Sarcasm Alert!!

Nah, they're just dumb teenagers. Doesn't take much to make them scream. Don't forget--they're the ones who made Britney rich and able to support Kevin's meteoric rise to fame.

It's a viscious cycle, really.

The real rappers (Vanilla and Eminem) are probably having a good laugh at this...or shaking their heads in disgust.

If Vanilla Ice is a real rapper, then I am Queen Latifa. He's a surburban Dallas boy, and, at least around here, he's considered to be very, very lame. Vanilla might actually enjoy these young posers.

Eminem, however, *does* have actual cred. I like a lot of his work.

Cherie

I think's Vanilla Ice's (or Ice, as I like to call him) cred comes from his back-up dancing talent... more the puffy pants/neon ball caps ward of the hip-hop community...

I'm just kidding, Ice doesn't have any cred :D
 
That reminded me of why I didn't like the majority of the people I met in LA (with the exception of a few who were actually FROM Los Angeles) , especially the Malibu croud, who will flock to any steaming turd that current pop culture directs them towards. Its so contrived. That and this performance just shows that favoritism/nepotism is still rampant in the music industry. Disgusting. I hope Federline gets tossed out on his ass only to have to beg for his old job at Wendy's.
