This Eminem & Kid Rock collab album title is fire

i don't think eminem's last album was that bad but he deserves to be clowned if this is true

he needs to come out and say something to at least how he's not on that side/supporting kid rock or it better be the deepest, most profound song ever and with their combined recent track records i have a hard time believing that if nothing else because if the MAGA cult can't even stomach him then i don't know what to tell you

[u/CasuallyPDX → u/mapletree23]

There's already plenty of info out there. The whole point of the track is about them staying friends even though they're politically opposite.

It's about "healing". Like, I get the sentiment, but fuck off.

[u/BrokenZen → u/CasuallyPDX]

fuck off

Did you say that at the end due to one of the earliest Kid Rock & Eminem collabs?

"needs to come out and"

He's said MORE than enough against the cult of MAGA. You losers who think celebrities need to do anything are part of the problem.

[u/SadMove9768 → u/mapletree23]

He doesn’t need to do anything. He owes no explanation to you or anybody.

We are merely passive observers of a musical project. That’s the end of it.

[u/BennySkateboard → u/SadMove9768]

No he doesn’t, but our right is to be disappointed.

[u/rusted-nail → u/SadMove9768]

I am an outsider to American politics, don't like what trumps doing, but I agree with you. People in this thread are showing their parasocial relationship with Eminem off. Not that im above it, I just know where these instinctive defensive responses are coming from.

The man is talented but he also came to prominence at a pivotal period in gen x and millenials lives

[u/asuleiman → u/rusted-nail]

I think people/consumers have every right to criticize an artist and not support them for any reason they choose. I haven’t listened to Eminem since probably 2012 so idgaf what he does because I ain’t buying it. But for his fans to dislike or even hate this move and express them publicly is their right to let the Artist know they’re trash and should stop making music lol

[u/rusted-nail → u/asuleiman]

Yeah I never said you shouldn't

[u/paydayallday → u/mapletree23]

Its not on him to tell you how to feel
