Circus was great and Femme Fatale was an amazing dance record. The only reason people hate it is because her team trolled us the ENTIRE era and her promo sucked.

I didn't say that he has no influence. But compared to Britney? And the artists he's influenced are not nearly as big as the artists Britney's influenced.

I said he had controversy but less than Britney. Britney was the #1 most-searched person on the Internet for years for a reason. Nothing Eminem ever did was half as big as her head-shaving and VMA performance. Yes, he had controversy. But in what world is a white male with drug problems in to rock'n'roll and hip-hop going to be more shocking and news-grabbing than a Lolita-turned-sex-kitten blonde female that goes on a crazy rampage? Males just don't ever generate that level of controversy even with the same actions. On the same note, it's like expecting a Lolita-turned-sex-kitten blonde female that goes on a crazy rampage to sell as well as a white male with drug problems in to rock'n'roll and hip-hop. These things should not be surprising to people that follow music.

And I agree with Britney. I don't hate Eminem. But it's dumb as **** to say that the most controversial, best-selling, most impactful, etc. male of the millenium is miles bigger than the most controversial, best-selling, most impactful, etc. female of the millenium, especially when they each have different fields they excel in. Can we at least take off our stan glasses and realize they're both legends?
Britney's still the highest selling female of the millenium. It's cute that you tried, though.

Your crazy

No one in the history of the music industry has battled more controversy than Marshall Mathers

And you think Eminem is more legendary than Britney because MMLP2 sold more than Britney Jean? Okay.

No, I was just saying it's embarrassing to try and act like touring numbers was a major factor when he very clearly chooses not to tour and he could out do her in tours if he wanted to since his last album still shows he's not only still popular, but more popular that Brit right now.

Navy isn't grasping at anything. Rihanna and Em have won Grammys together, snatched multiple number ones together, and are going on a sold out stadium tour this summer. We know Eminem is a legend because we have already beared witness to his power.

Can't speak for the hive though

maybe theyre not 'grasping' at anything, and are just answering the question according to what they think on the matter em does possess ever enduring global appeal across many demographics, after all

WHo else is doing it? Only Em and Bey

[YM8]

They are both legends but please dont say Britney has battled more controversy than Em or has been more successful bc thats insane

a good portion of her audience has already forgotten her sis, i hate to break it to you. or if they havent forgotten her, theyre largely ignoring her

And who is talking about her audience only? its the general public and the global superstars she's inspired, for good or for bad, she'll never be forgotten because the amount of controversy and recognition she's had has cemented her status as a legend/icon in pop culture and music in general.

But I've never said Brit was not a legend. I just think that Em is more legendary, more respected etc...
I'd be the first one to defend Britney if someone said something about her..

Em is still trying to be better and all whereas Brit just doesn't want anymore and that's why people don't take her seriously...

Btw, i was not only talking about his drugs problem but also his family's. A song like 'Kim' in which he murders his wife caused controversy.

Eminem is fairly local is he not?

Anyways,

Kanye vs Britney would have been a better poll. The media never really took to Eminem like Britney. She is just on another level. She reached dizzying heights of superstardom that only a few before her have reached.

By that logic, then I can say Britney Jean didn't sell that much because Britney chooses not to promote her music but she could if she wanted.

so being forgotten = low sales and touring receipts in comparison to others?
this is not about current success, its about the impact she had on pop music and culture in general along with the mark she left behind
