Don Breezio:

LoL @ SGV starting useless discussion (knowing he's wrong) just to get people pissed..  :D

There's a difference between being popular and making pop-music.
Eminem, Nelly & 50 Cent all makes popular music, but Nelly is the only that actually makes pop-music.
End of story.

Twentytwofifty:
In my mind there is a different in being pop and making commercial music.

Eminem is pop but (for the most part) does not make commercial music.

I find it funny how popularity changes some people's opinions of thier music.  Someone like DJ Quik makes more commercial music than Eminem or 50 Cent.  "Hand In Hand" or "Pitch In On A Party" are more commercial than "Without Me" or "In Da Club" and if those two songs blew up people would start talking shit about Quik and putting him in the "pop-music" category.  

I don't think I worded it well.   :-\

Yes, you did.
But as long as DJ Quik are selling 10K records, people aren't gonna categorize him as neither pop or popular.
Even Ras Kass have made just as poppy songs as Eminem & 50 Cent, but he doesn't sell, so he doesn't get blasted..
