A question about Eminem

I was just wondering if it is true that Eminem might win a Nobel Prize in Poetry. Does anyone know?

Nominees for the Nobel Prize never learn of their nomination - unless they win, of course.

So, given that, I'd argue that's about as likely as me winning the Peace Prize

I agree. He is a genius, to be able to come up with all that stuff off the top of his head. There is no way I could do it.

I think that if someone could come up with lines that rhyme like that, they should get an award for it, whether it is rap or written poetry, because you could take any great poet and have them battle with Eminem and they would never win. Eminem can just come up with that stuff so easily. He is a genius. Even if people don't like the things he talks about, they still have to agree that he is a great poet.

I really don't like what Eminem stands for nor for the message that he sends out. However, he does have skill with words - I must give him that. If you were to look at the lyrics to Lose Yourself, there's no denying his skill in poetry.

Regardless, despite how much talent as he has in terms of rhyme and poetry, I would be very disappointed if he were to win the Nobel Prize - what he represents and the message that he sends out should exclude him from such a prestigious award.
