Some of my friends and I once had a discussion about how "Kim" was like listening to our childhood homes all over again in rap. It& #39;s extremely violent--he kills his wife in it--and sounds exactly like the fights that wake up thousands of children night after night. /1 https://twitter.com/levelmag/status/1263848811174268928">https://twitter.com/levelmag/...

I& #39;m not saying that& #39;s good; I& #39;m just saying it& #39;s a bone-chillingly accurate representation of white male rage set to music that people who grew up in the 80s and 90s recognized as something they& #39;d heard long before it was set to music. /2

Why I find that interesting right now is that this came out 20 years ago and people recognized it as familiar from decades prior.

But if you& #39;ve been reading the news since 2016, you& #39;d think this sort of & #39;white male rage& #39; manifested during the Obama presidency. /3

"The Marshall Mathers LP" sits there now in defiance of that idea.

People protested it for that content when it came out. They didn& #39;t--or chose not to--recognize that it was an accurate representation of the culture Eminem came from. /4
