Stevie Wonder Bashes Eminem for Jackson Criticism

LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - In a rare public outburst, Stevie Wonder has blasted Eminem (news - web sites) for ridiculing Michael Jackson (news) in a video, and suggested the rapper was hypocritical because he owed his success to poor and black people.

Jackson himself has already lambasted Eminem's video for the song "Just Lose It," which makes light of child molestation charges against the self-styled "King of Pop."

Wonder joined the fray by telling Billboard magazine that he was "really disappointed" in Eminem.

"Kicking someone when he's down is not a good thing," Wonder was quoted as telling the music industry trade publication. "I have much respect for his work, though I don't think he's as good as (late rapper) 2Pac. But I was disappointed that he would let himself go to such a level."

Added Wonder, "He has succeeded on the backs of people predominantly in that lower pay bracket, people of color. So for him to come out like that is bull."

A spokesman for Eminem was not available for comment. The song, hailed by the Los Angeles Times as a "playful look at celebrity voyeurism," is expected to be among the nominees when contenders for the annual Grammy Awards are unveiled on Tuesday.

Stevie Wonder: a man who knows just a FEW things about music, I respect his opinion, he knows what the fuck he's talking about.

I don't think he ever has, lol.  I'll tell you one thing, though... if he could see what the fuck they've done with his hair, you can bet your ass he'd be pissed off.

what does that have to to with Jackson? he's obviously not in the lower pay bracket, and noone's sure what color he is anyways
and wtf? it's gonna be up for a grammy?

First thing that came to my mind when I read the story too. 

If Stevie could see maybe he'd realize that Mike is not poor nor black.

[7even]

Exactly anyone who pulls the race card when he talks about Em/Jackson-"Beef" is a retard.

yea when did they start releasing videos in brail??

[BIG.DADDY]

yo B...this whole mike jackson shit is old news....Stevie needs to sit his ass behind his little keyboard and bang out some music that is relevant today. The muthafucka need to stop trying to get back into the limelight by criticizing a video hes never SEEN and defending someone who STOPPED being black 15 years ago. Also, get that fool some Braille interview transcripts of mike jackson stating that it is OK for little kids to share a bed with him. I guess he never heard Styles p's verse that says;
you dont really want no action
cause i got trifling niggas just like mike jackson
and you little boys the victim
I'm the one who make the call and tell niggas go get 'em
