@X,Y,"and Z" OK - like usual half of what you wrote just went way over my head (sometimes reading your stuff is like trying to decipher poetry :) ), but anyway I'll put in my own little comment. I know some people put down Em for having a weak voice, but for me its what he does with what he's got that I like. I like his style of rapping, the lyrics - the whole package really. Maybe he's not really rap in the original way with the batman outfits and such, but so? Are black rappers really not able to sell because of him? He's cost me £20 of my cash over the last 2 years - I'm not rich, but that's left me plenty to buy other rappers' music and since he's the only white rapper (that's well known anyways) all my other music is from black rappers. Should I only buy stuff by people who look like me? To me that would be to deny part of my heritage - things aren't always so black or white when you're not all black or white.
