Eminem issues An Apology

Eminem has responded to allegations that he made racially derogatory references to African Americans, in particular African American women in one of his early recordings. The tape, which was released by the Source Magazine at a New York press conference on Tuesday (November 18), features two untitled songs recorded by Eminem in 1993.


The rapper issued the following statement in relation to the recording, "Ray Benzino, Dave Mays and the Source have had a vendetta against me, Shady Records, and our artists for a long time. The tape played today was something I made out of anger, stupidity, and frustration when I was a teenager. I'd just broken up with my girlfriend, who was African American, and I reacted like the angry, stupid kid I was. I hope people will take it for the foolishness that it was, not for what somebody is trying to make it today."


The songs were provided by three white hip-hop fans from Detroit who were associates of Eminem when the song was recorded. They include the following lyrics: "And all the girls that I like to bone/Have the big butts, no they don't/ Cause I don't like that n-gger sh-t/ I'm just here to make a bigger hit ... Blacks and whites they sometimes mix/But Black girls only want your money cause they're dumb chicks/So I'mma say like this/Don't date a Black girl, take it as a diss/if you want, but if you don't/I'mma tell you like this, I surely won't/Never date a black girl because Blacks only want your money/ and that sh-t ain't funny ... Black girls and white girls just don't mix/Because Black girls are dumb and white girls are good chicks."

I think this is pretty well a dead issue by now

How can you say he was young and naive? He was 20 when this was recorded - by that age he should be mature enough to know not to do something as fucking stupid as this. I hate how all of you try to defend him and act like it was'nt racist .. it WAS racist - your all just on emionems side because of who it was that found the tape, Benzino, if it was anyone respectable, you'd act differently .. dont be all on his defence based on who discovered the tape .. fact is, the tapes there, he did say it, and let him get away with it because he apologised will just give him the thought that he can be racist to other races and get off with it.
