Eminem's Mosh Ad seems to have sparked political discussion

Edited on Tue Oct-26-04 10:23 PM by Kipepeo

on the MTV boards. Of particular interest are the TRL, Hip Hop and especially the Fight for your Rights boards: http://www.mtv.com/community/message_boards/boardsdir.jhtml

I think some have been overrun by freepers, but it's awesome to see some of the ~ToGgLe cAsE KeWl!~ kids talking politics.

1. I saw the world premiere of this video on MTV late this afternoon

I avoid MTV like some friends here avoid cable network "news", but I was in someone else's home doing an interview with them for my job, and it was on. There is absolutely no mistaking Eminem's message or at whom it is directed - the video is full of very unflattering photos of Bush and the righteous indignation of youth done wrong by the powers that be.

Count me as one uncool, unhip, rapidly approaching middle age chick who thought the song and video are AWESOME!!

3. Thanks!

I saw it today for the first time too and couldn't believe they played it on MTV. I was sure there would be some kind of censorship...

6. That was you?

Cool. I can't believe how many freeps are there. But picturing them trying to pass themselves off as MTV tweens makes me laugh a little.

7. None of the links work.

Disabled, forbidden or removed.
The Mtv link doesn't work with Macs.
Now I really want to see this!
