IF Y'ALL THOUGHT SHE WENT SOFT ON HER FIRST TWO SINGLES, GET UP INTO THIS.
DISCLAIMER: SO EM SAYS THE WORD "FAGGOT" IN THIS SONG. MY INSTINCT IS TO REMOVE THE TRACK FROM THE BLOG. BUT BEFORE I DO, I WANTED TO GET SOME FEEDBACK FROM THE NEIGHBORS. WHAT ARE YOUR THOUGHTS?

So nice of you to be considerate. It depends on your beliefs. Personally I don't like eminem and I find it offensive so I would remove it if I had a music Blog (especially with all that has been happening). However I guess if we were to remove every song with something offensive in it we might have nothing left! Sorry not a very helpful comment : ) Happy Halloween

thank you for your feedback and it was helpful. i historically have removed any and every song that dropped the "f" bomb. i also have tried to not post anything that can be perceived as sexist, racist and classist. but you are right, in doing that - i will have to remove many songs. i am gonna leave it up for a bit so that i can get more feedback. i guess, i am just a little puzzled as to why nicki, as self identified gay advocate, allowed the word to be on the song. should we twitter her and ask her?

No worries, yea leave it up for a while and see if you get more feedback. I guess if people want to download it and listen to it then that's on their conscious, but you've done you're part in expressing your opinion. Yea why not twitter her - you may just get an answer!! Just sent an email to your account just complimenting your blog!

im not offended as a gay man....actually i think its a hot song!! yes it is a derogatory word but hes not really using it in a derogatory sense. i think you did the right thing by posting a disclaimer..if you dont wanna hear it dont listen!

Eminem knew exactly what he was doing when he used the word. I understand he may say he didn't mean it toward gay people but unfortunately he doesn't have that power. It's like using the 'n' word and saying you didn't mean it toward black people. It is what it is and it means what it means. It was just a stupid way of getting attention and I'm surprised Nicki let it go on the track. Eminem needs to sit his stupid ass down and grow up. He is not an ally to the community.

I like it, the word is very offensive but if I was Lil kim I would feel some way bout the whole song
