lennon on elvis, all praise eminem

When Elvis died, they asked John Lennon what he thought about it. "Elvis died when he went into the Army," Lennon said. Sam Phillips of Sun Studio said, "If I could find a white boy who could sing like that, I could make a million dollars." Elvis, through some mojo and a deal made at the crossroads, translated "that" for white audiences. Eminem is an impressive rhymer with emotionally potent content. I don't have any of his albums and it's not really my cup of tea, but I can't understand those who dismiss him as talentless. Martin np. si-cut.db -- enthusiast nr. 16 pleasures
