I used to listen to his music a lot when I was thirteen. I never thought about the message of his words and how it effected women and men. My mom hated and I thought it was because she didn't understand.
But I'm sorry, his music is flat out sexist and homophobic.
"...or these bitches on my dick, that's how dudes be getting sick, that's how dicks be getting drips, falling victims to this shit, from these bitches on our dicks..." (Drips, Eminem Show)
How is that not sexist? He blames women for a lot of things, slut-shames, throws the F-word around (no I do not mean fuck, I mean the derogatory term used to refer to gay men), oh but he doesn't say the N-word so let's all applaud him.
Yes, he's a talented rapper, but in the end his lyrics are still sexist and homophic and incredibly damaging.
Leaving this here 'cause I just woke up from a nap and don't have the energy to keep talking about this: http://www.jacksonkatz.com/eminem2.html
