I don't associate pop with popular music but with a type of music..unlike Em Nelly ain't got no lyrics or anything to respect as a hiphop fan even though both got pop singles

i like country grammar better...it has more songs i like and even though their getting old it was still better quality...i loved "luvin me" and "for my" and shit...every other track on that cd. the only songs i was really feelin off nellyville were "nellyville", "hot in herre" "roc the mic remix" "#1" "dilemma" and "CG2"
Eminem is more pop than anyone alive. With his wanna be gangsta image.Why do think he picked up 50?

Nelly ain't really rappinJa Rule is more singin that rappin so that's RnBthere's the difference50 sings a hook pretty often but that's itI agree both do popular music so does/did Pac, Biggie, Nas and many more and i ain't see people callin their shit popall this "popular music" talk is some silly shit and it ain't gettin to the point cuz yall are givin it a different meaning than the discussion about Nelly was originally meant to have..nobody is blaming Nelly for being popular but for the type of music he makesQuote from: 5 on July 01, 2003, 11:44:07 PMEminem is more pop than anyone alive. With his wanna be gangsta image.Why do think he picked up 50? how is Em a wanna be G when he clearly sais he ain't?just check is wanksta remix as one of numerous examples "I ain't no gangsta I ain't got to stop frontin"
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.
