Eminem - If I Had (REACTION)

[@twiztidwill9670]

I like how Eminem said “I’m tired of hearing people get mad that all I rap about drugs.” Now days that’s all they listen to

[@chikushodiz91]

And when he was rapping about drugs he never was glorifying it he actually was warning the people

[@thobanikjl457]

​@Albofootball23 nah he glorified them and sometimes criticized them....but he most certainly glorified them drugs..... we loved him for that though because he was putting everything into perspective......he never sugar coated

[@itbebkm]
