...tape was stolen. The song was unfinished, and was not necessarily intended for release. Snide,
Are you referring to the Eminem song or the George M. Song? I suspect the former, because I thought the latter was released.
If Eminem, this really is a dumb news item.
I really have to question why this junk is even considered music in the first place. I have heard a lot of it, from Cypress Hill,to the Ghetto Boys (sp?) to what is supposedly the latest great rapper, 50 cent. While I admit that much of it is amusing in an adolescent,see-who-can-get-away-with-the-most kind of way, it is still nothing more than rhymes or staccato bursts of inanity recorded in sync with riffs and hooks made popular by real musicians. They like to call it "sampling". It has had a visibly detrimental effect on society, and I for one, cannot wait for its demise. Even the worst guitar player in the world has more claim to musical credibility than this genre of pathetic "poets".

The Eminem song. At least, I could *swear* I saw a "news" segment on MTV wherein his people said that.
