Title: My girlfriend compared Eminem to Axl Rose
Post by: BaDoBsEsSiOn418 on April 26, 2006, 10:43:10 AM
I was watching the Chicago show from '93 (I think that is what it was) where Axl went on a few rants about his family life and how kids are screwed up thanks to their parents.? My g/f said that sounds a lot like Eminem.? I can kinda agree with that.? Eminem always seems angry (or at least used to), obviously upset about his childhood, but at the same time is very witty and creative.? They are both controversial (homophobic and misogynist in many people's eyes), and not shy to express their thoughts on a record or in the press.? What do you guys think?

I kinda see Eminem as a modern day late 80s/early 90s Axl... always surrounded by a world of controversy. ?Of course, I'm not a fan of Eminem's music, but the fact that he acts like a dick, rants about other celebrities, and can't seem to keep himself out of trouble, reminds me of Axl. ?Not only that, but Eminem is as popular with the kids these days as Axl was in his day. ?Everyone loved to hate Axl, the same as Eminem. ?I think that Eminem tries to emulate Axl a little bit. ?Remember the D12 VMAs performance with the guys dressed up as members from 80s bands? ?Didn't Eminem dress as Axl?

Talented rapper, well there is quite the oxymoron.

Eminem calls his Mom the C-word, writes all these lyrics about how he hates her and then performs performs live with Elton John after making homophobic remarks....Nope dont see the similiarity....to be honest i think Eminem has ripped off certain personality characterisitcs from AXl....Let not go crazy though talking about how "witty" eminem is though

hahaha!! oh!!! the word is clunt!   ;)  I knew it, I'm just messin around.  :hihi:

But yeah, well Axl calls his dad an Asshole (or Assh*ole, if you prefer... or the A-word), so that's another similarity, I suppose.

I don't think this is really new / relevant.

Last thread about these two ended up in a discussion about rap.

Locked.
