i stand corrected. ok em may have written nice rap songs (better if he can lessen the f words in the songs he'd written), but if only for the fact that he did that song on michael jackson, i have totally lost respect for him as an artist. despite what has been going on with MJ, i still think he is a real genius and had contributed a lot to the music industry and revolutionized it to such extent that mtv is what it is now. big time. em should have at least shown respect by not riding on some other's travesty to get popular or sell his records. for me it's pure gimmickry. not art but crap.
bono is a real gentleman for acknowledging em's talent.
for someone who's been in the business for 25 yrs or so,
the man should be emulated for showing respect for his fellow artists and does not show insecurity against the new and "budding" superstars. despite the awards and the commercial success that em has been reaping, he should remember that he still has a lot to do to reach bono's stature
or even that of michael jackson. the latter after all has been in the business for more than 30yrs.
