Good point.
BTW, a nauseating defence of that piece of Nazi shit has been published in the last issue of The Nation - it argues that he is a product of his enviornment and a "satire" on social relations (just as the counterpucj says). What a tripe! Why does The Nation have to sink so low and swallow raw the standard line of entertainment industry claiming that they only produce what the public supposedly wants. It seems that nowadays "free speech" and "free market" espouse the same idea: freedom of commodity producers from any accountablity for their products.
Another point - this whole (c)rap music business is a perfect example of white establishment using Blacks to do the dirty work - just like in the Old South. Only this time it is not picking up cotton but promoting Amerikun "family values" - violence, hate, and bigotry - something that is "beneath" white musicians. Eminem transgress that "ethnic role," hence he draws the wrath of the establishment critics.
