Rant: The fakeness of white 'rap' artists...Timberland..emin
Discussion
Timberlake is another whiny disney club tosser. His most recent success has been jumping on the Timberland bandwaggon.
Timberland is one of THE best producers of electronic music. The music he produces is geared towards the mass market so has a generic 'pop' sound but is faultless.
Eminem had major success with Dre, but his most recent stuff is dross.

In that pic above, why is Timberland all baby-oiled up? 
All I did was google "Timberland"; you very nearly got a picture of a pair of boots. 
I don't think white rappers are "trying" to be black by writing/producing/performing rap; they make music that is most natural to them; as long as they can pull it off and do the genre justice then I doubt anyone really cares about the colour of the writer/performer's skin.

Come on, Eminem's voice sounds EXACTLY the same in every song. Can he actually show any verstality?! Waves his hands around rappy-like and hey presto.
Have a quick search on YouTube for Eminem's songs that weren't the first release off an album - songs like Sing for the Moment and 'til I collapse - and you'll (hopefully) see that he releases cheesey wavey hand stuff to promote the album which has a wide range of stuff on it.Big up the Kersal Massive

Some white rappers do make a big thing about it, it's like gay comedians always doing joke about being gay. There are others though, Bubba Sparxx springs to mind as holding his own, and not making a big thing about being a whitey!

There are loads of spoofs too, the Persil massive for one, and also the real Ginger Joe version.

Now obviously they've made more money and had more lasses than I ever will (respect' for that bit) but...
Arent they abit 'boy bandy'?'. They always have a black respected rappper almost like a crutch to prop them up in their songs. Like a veneer of respectability? Come on, Eminem's voice sounds EXACTLY the same in every song. Can he actually show any verstality?! Waves his hands around rappy-like and hey presto.
Have you ever tried rapping? Ever tried talking lyrics so fast your tongue and brain ties in knots? Arent they abit 'boy bandy'?'.

Have you any idea of the s
t hole life Eminem worked his way up from to be a fake boy band hand waving black-respected-rapper-becrutched multimillionaire? (try rapping that out) Are you simply jealous, or what?

A few thoughts (without trying to sound like a fanboy)
1) Eminem does write most of his records
2) Eminem grew up in one of the stty area's of Detroit, so was brought up around Rap music
3) Within hip hop/rap circles he is widely known as one of the best (lyrically and verbally) in the business

Eminem=legend, putting the guy in the same sentence as Disney reject Timberlake is just so wrong. Eminem taught most of todays rappers to rap FFS, he has total respect in this scene.
Sounds to me like you are getting your Timberlake and Timbaland mixed up, I would take a guess that this is the first time that you have found out that they are actually different people.

so why's he sound so $hit then?
Why is rap even accepted as a viable form of music when it just sounds contrived? apart from French rap that actually sounds half way decent, prob cos I can't understand it.
And don't give me all the poor white boy rubbish. Leave the rap to the black dudes who do it better, and then we can all ignore it as a minority abuse of airspace. Not joking. Rap is cr@p. None of it is going to be remembered longer than a few years of production, and if it is, it won't be remembered like the Beatles or the Stones.
