    For him to appreciate Eminem, you need to sit next to him and explain and break down the doubles and word play which is the genius of Eminem.

      This is a good idea, I would LOVE to do this, once I get him a little more warmed up to rap in general :) thanks for watching!

      Or he could just not like Eminem. I mean that is okay too. I love Eminem. Not everyone has to though. I think Bob Dylan and Johnny Cash are fucking terrible. I am not sure I have ever heard a song of either of theirs that wasn't excruciating to my ears. I am in the minority and that is okay. That said Dylan is a fantastic writer. Point is let people like what they like and dislike what they dislike. I don't know where we got this idea that everything was objectively good or bad and anyone who doesn't think that way needs to conform.

      They didn't say that he HAD to like Eminem, they said appreciate, and there's nothing wrong with introducing new genres of music to people, it's not like you're strapping them down to a chair and MAKING them listen to it, chill.

    I think he sacrificed some of the flow and cadence in order to say exactly what he wanted to say. This wasn't a track to showcase his lyrical ability.

    I don't think he is ever really going to understand that the musicianship of rap Is the words! The flow of the words is a musical instrument in itself and then the rhyme scheme is another level to the complexity of rap. Add to that similes, metaphors, double and triple entendres, etc and a rappers ability to tell a story while still rhyming on a level not done in other genres of music and then understanding all of that is where the appreciation of rap comes in. When he says he would be happy watching the video to Mockingbird and having Eminem just narrate the video, then he is really still missing the point of rap. Maybe you should show him some more musical rap songs with more instruments in the background. Yelawolf has songs like that. I guess even Lose yourself is a pretty traditional song music wise.

      Eminem uses his voice as percussion. I’m pretty sure he has studied percussion because he finds ways to make beats and just use his voice to fill a void he left in the beat with his voice. It’s like a bouncy flow, drummers really appreciate what he does in that regard

      its not that confusing. to him its like someone giving a speech but then someone uploads the speech to youtube with an unnecessary motivational background track. hes the type that likes the speech but would prefer to hear the speech stand alone without the unnecessary cadence/music in the background. hell, he might even like the background music in a different context but when mixed together, to him, it doesn't fit. if you think about it like that hopefully its easier to understand.

    Please react to: Ren & Sam Tompkins - Earned it /Mans World / Falling
    These are two seperate performers who perform together now and again.
    Ren in his own right did have a deal with Sony I believe however due to poor health had to concentrate on getting better and had to step away from the deal.
    I was told to watch him by a friend and hey I'm hooked, absolutely brilliant, talented individual and well really should say individuals, Sam Tompkins blows me away too.
