Why did Eminem keep bashing Christopher Reeve?

[SnakeWesker]

I've googled this, and can't seem to find out the reason why Eminem kept saying shit about Reeve. I mean, it's one thing to say something about him in one song, but he did it more than once. Did Reeve say something about him?

 

[ArtsyGirl]

I cant remember anything Eminem said about him.. Could u put up some examples?? Not doubting you just interested. Im guessing though that this was just Eminem being Eminem.

 

[PELLA]

ya i never heard anything about that.

 

[drake_411]

^your kidding right,he talked shit about him on encore and his other albums too.probably just for shock value.

Lyrics, he wrote a whole song dedicated to him..

Eminem-
Yeah ...
Definately definately definately dope...
Definately definately K-Mart
Yeah Yeah
You find me offensive
I find you offensive for finding me offensive
hence if I should draw out a line any fences
if so to what extent, if any, should I go?
cause it's getting expensive
being on the other side of the court room on the defensive
they say I cause extensive psycholgical nerve damage to the brain
when I go to lengths this far at other people's expenses
I say you're all just too god damn sensitive
it's censorship and it's downright blasphemous
let's end this shit now cause I won't stand for this
and Christopher Reeves won't sit for this neither
and let's clear this up too I aint got no beef with him either
he used to be like a hero to me
I even believe I had one of those 25 cent stickers on my refrigerator
Right next to Darth Vader and Darth must have put a hex on him for later
I feel like its my fault cause of the way that
I stuck him off in between him and Lex Luther
I killed Superman I killed Super... Man
and how ironic that I'd be the bad guy kryptonite
the green chronic

(Chorus)
Cause i aint got no legs
or no brain
nice to meet you
hi my name is...
i forgot my name
my name was not to become what i became with this level of fame
my soul is possessed by this devil
my new name is...
Rain Man

Now in the bible it says
thou shall now watch two lesbians in bed
have homosexual sex
unless of course you were given the consent to join in
then of course it's intercourse and it bisexual sex
which isn't as bad as long as you show some remorse for your actions
either before, during, or after performing the act of that which
is normally reffered to as such more commonly known phrases
that are more used by today kids
in a more derogatory way
but who's to say what's fair to say and what not to say
let ask Dr. Dre
Dr. Dre (what up?)
I got a question if i may (yeah)
is it gay to play putt putt golf with a friend (yeah)
and watch his butt butt when he tees off (yeah)
but but i aint done THAT
in football a quarterback yells out hut hut
while he reaches in another grown man's ass
grabs on his nuts, but just what if
it was never meant, it was just an accident
but he tripped, fell, slipped and his penis went in
his teeny, tiny, little, round hiney
and he didn't mean it but his little weenie flinched just a little bit
and I don't need to go into any more details
but what if he pictured it as a female's butt
is that gay? I just need to clear things up
til then I'll just walk around with a manly strut because...

(Chorus)
Cause i aint got no legs
or no brain
nice to meet you
hi my name is...
i forgot my name
my name was not to become what i became with this level of fame
my soul is possessed by this devil
my new name is...
Rain Man

You find me offensive
I find you offensive...
shit this is the same verse, I just did this
when am I gonna come to my good senses?
probably the day Bush comes to my defenses
my spider senses telling me Spider-Man is nearby
and my plan is to get him next and open up a whoop ass canister
god damnit Dre where's the god damn beat (yeah) anyway
anyway I don't know how else to put it
this is the only thing that I'm good at
I am the bad guy kryptonite, the green chronic
demonic, yep yep, don't worry I'm on it, I got it
high-five Nick Lechey stuck a pin in Jessica's head and walked away
and as she flew around the room like a balloon i'd
grab the last can of chicken tuna out the trash can
and to my headed straight back to the Neverland Ranch
with a peanut butter jelly chicken tuna sandwhich
and I don't even gotta make no god damn sense
I just did a whole song and I didn't say shitttt

(Chorus)
Cause i aint got no legs
or no brain
nice to meet you
hi my name is...
i forgot my name
my name was not to become what i became with this level of fame
my soul is possessed by this devil
my new name is...
Rain Man

 

[CoolWaterz]

haha i couldnt help but laugh at the line "roll up on you like christopher reeve" from one of ems song.
and this thread is retarted...he wrote it because it was sadistically funny and thats eminems type of humor dude.

 

[critikaldesignz]

It's satirical humour.

 

[Icecixz]

and Mr. Reeves is dead....so is this topic

 

[ArtsyGirl]

Not that I've heard that song, but from those lyrics it sounds worse than shit.

 

[S. Fourteen]

He didn't say anything to Eminem, he's basically Paralyzed Superman.

 

[SnakeWesker]

Oh. Well then that's insane. It would be one thing if Reeve had said something to him, like, "Em's lyrics are too violent" are whatever. But, this will go down as yet another unprovoked attack by Eminem. Shame that an obviously talented artist has/had to resort to this lameness.

Did you not read the lyrics? Reeves did criticize Eminem, saying his lyrics were too full of profanity, and very senseless, Em took insult to this.

 

[DeeezNuuuts83]

Eminem has always been known to completely overreact to every little comment about him then rap about it. He was mad at Christina Aguilera for something she said on MTV that wasn't even a diss, then he went on to diss her on The Real Slim Shady. Then he was mad at Whitey Ford or whatever his name is basically for not acting all happy and giddy when Em said what's up to him at some place where they stumbled upon each other. Then he was mad at Fred Durst, DJ Lethal and Limp Bizkit for not backing him up in the already retarded-ass "beef" that Em never did anything about. Then he disses Moby because he said he's not a fan. And then the Christopher Reeves, thing. He did diss Benzino, Ja Rule (but only alongside 50), Canibus, Lauryn Hill, and probably a few others who I can't remember, but Fatal dissed him and Em never said anything back. Yet he's so quick to diss practically harmless musicians from other genres who aren't even really doing anything to him.

 

[samtarin]

it's humor people take a fucking joke. if someone at your job talks shit you wanna say something back dont you? eminem has the means to say whatever to whoever and take advantage of the freedom of speech just as the rest of us do.

 

[ArtsyGirl]

When your at work its different, your supposed to be professional otherwise your likely to get fired. Did Christopher Reeve's talk shit about Eminem when he was alive? Anyway like I said before that song is SHIT and has no point, the fact Eminem says that himself doesnt make it any better either its still shit.
