    wheres beyonce’s hit singles at (minus single ladies and if i were a boy) wheres them number ones beyonce vs the world!!

  9. Ghetto Fab May 12, 2010

    Let me use this time to set everyone straight. The only reason Eminem is number one despite him being massively talented is because he is WHITE! He is doing a genre of music that white people crave and they finally have a white boy that’s really good and not corny. So they support him. There are black rappers that are just as talented as Eminem and haven’t sold anything close to what Em’s sold. Not because they aren’t talented, But because black folks don’t support their own! So while Eminem still deserves his congrats it can only make you wonder how many black artists have slipped through the cracks.

    Congrats Em!

    first off, eminem doesnt hav as much grammys bcuz he is too explict to get any grammys other than best rap album
    n theyre both the greatest at THEIR OWN GENRE

  20. Gary May 12, 2010

    N#1 Just cuz his name is Eminem ! … ugh

    Since the ” Bruno ” thing , i cannot stand him ! ……. 8 Miles was AWESOME though.

  21. Tha Phoenix May 12, 2010

    Love this song and I’m also loving his new positive vibe.

    Em is one of the best in the game – he slayed both Weezy AND Drake on their own tracks – so the haters can stay mad.

  22. Bobby D May 12, 2010

    another lame ass white boy trying to be black.

    Eminem aint s***.

    anyone who makes a career out of making fun of everyone else’s hard work and success does NOT need to be rewarded.

    I guess he is so sucessful because he epitomizes the ” trailer park trash white boy who wants to be black so that he can somehow belong” motif.

    EMINEM SUCKS DONKEY D***

    @Beyonce Vs. The World

    Sweetie, wtf are you talking about??? I was only amused by your comment because it was quite hilarious and it actually made a lot of sense in response to @Ciara_2010’s comment.

    And I’m not sure what point you’re trying to make by telling me to send Wayne some books. Maybe you should google some speech therapists and send a list to Beyonce so she could take up some lessons on how to structure an accurate sentence.

    Eminem has been around for over a decade. The whole “white boy” thing that people bitterly complain about in association with Eminem’s success is…well…old. There have been large number of white guys who’ve tried to break into hip hop, and either failed…or didn’t last long if they made it in. Eminem has proven himself. Get over it.

    And get over the fact that called Christina and Mariah’s b**** asses out. “Waa, waa…he makes fun of other peoples success.”

    As if making constant references to his being white and referring to him as trailer trash is less offensive.

    Shut up.

    this song is nice he desrve no one

  26. yuneese May 13, 2010

    @CONVERSATION CHAMBER

    It’s hilarious that FEMinem focuses so much on dissing other celebs who DON’T GIVE A F*** about him. Christina, Mariah, Britney, MJ, Madonna, Will Smith, Lauryn Hill, Moby, and many others DON’T CARE about that sick, twisted, homophobic, woman-hating white trailer trash rapper.He gives them good PR by calling them out. Why doesn’t he pick on more hip hop artists? F****** hypocrite.

    @MOOMOOH

    Eminem GOAT? NO. More like GTOA: G.reatest T.RASH O.f A.LL

  28. Bravia May 13, 2010

    Cosign 100. Em has said plenty of timese how he “sold his soul and he’ll never get it back” Funny how he’s doing a tour with the 1 man himself Jay Z and they both call themselves Rain Man.
