Decide if Shady's as bad as they say he is
from Bad Meets Evil – Renegade Lyrics on Rap Genius
Eminem channels the “We the People” philosophy of direct democracy because representative democracy wasn’t working out for him:
“When you hear the words about raping your mother or killing your mother, I think that the industry should be embarrassed that that’s award-winning entertainment” — Congresswoman Barbara Cubin, (R-Wy.)
Rep. Cubin is refering to the lyrics from “Kill You”:
Shut up slut, you’re causing too much chaos
Just bend over and take it like a slut, OK Ma?
‘Oh, now he’s raping his own mother, abusing a whore,
snorting coke, and we gave him the Rolling Stone cover?
The funny part is — in these lyrics — Eminem is satirizing his critics!!!! (I guess Barbara missed the joke..)
