Eminem Nominated For Eight VMAs
The nominees for this year’s MTV VMAs were announced today and leading the pack is Lady Gaga with a dozen nods. Right behind her is Eminem, with eight nominations which include “Male Video Of The Year” and “Video Of The Year”. As for as the ceremony goes, Em could be less than thrilled. Ha!
“Apparently MTV doesn’t care that I have two massive stadium shows on the other side of the country the day after the VMAs. F me, right?!?! I mean, I’ll be there but don’t expect me to be nice about it.”
This year, the Awards take place on September 12 at the Nokia Theater in L.A. Check out a selection of nominees after the jump.

if nicki minaj gets a vma for massive attack there must be a conspiracy going on.
the fact she’s nominated for that wack song who’s label even pull the plug on pushing the record shows there is a conspiracy.
If not, the people at MTV will display the biggest sense of humor ever in entertainment.
Wait….that BoB Airplanes video was NOT that hot, there were loads better videos than that one come on now. Nothing On You was a better vid than Airplanes
2stomp mp3s found! Eminem Not Afraid here, also ringtones and love the way you lie (with Rihanna) and eminem space bound
so gay boi: nigga you know how much heat they took last yr for leaving EM off that list bitch? Best believe he’ll be on there this yr.. nigga might take the number 1 spot.. ha.. like any of this bitch ass niggas list matter anyways.. they be askin niggas like YN to weigh.. what that nigga know.. he repN for Ross hard all day everyday and nigga still took an L… dick ridin bitches.
Em gonna clean up the hip-hop shit.. Mr. Gaga gonna take the rest cuz fags and bitches love her, she like their icon or something. Bitch over exposed.. she’ll fade a way in a yr or two.. who cares.
and that nigga that always reppin gucci (jeezzzeeer) lookin at you nigga.. DAMN we get it .. you want a nigga’s dick in or around your mouth. lol gucci best in the game??? that nigga ain’t even the best in his city nigga.. lol
Stop Name Jacking GTFO.. Get your own… And NO, MTV is not a Hip Hop award show. Gucci, Wacka and the rest the the ignorant crew gets no love.
.
Big fuckin surprise!!! Wa waaaa waaa!! MTV loves to dick ride shady!! They just want ratings!! Recovery was cool but not the best hiphop album!! It gas no street anthems!! Just a bunch of melancholy dramatic songs that I don’t give a fuck about!
Can’t wait to see Gaga, love her mann
Oh but wait, a guy not allowed to say he likes Gaga on a rap website right smh ..
@Mr. G What the fuck? When has Em ever dropped a street anthem? Lol. Ya late brah.
FACK MTV… Skip it.
A So Icy Boi
You listen to Gucci Mane, your opinion isnt valid, Short bus shawty
But Fuck the VMA’s anyway, I hope Em takes some awards but I havent watched the VMA’s in years, it aint worth it to tune in to see Em and have to sit through 3 hours of Lady Gaga’s transvestite ass, Kanye Fruitcake ass taking microphones away from justin bieber and so on and so on
Pass
“I got a list here’s the order of my list that it’s in.
It goes, Reggie, JAY-Z, Tupac and Biggie, Andre from Outcast, Jada, Kurupt, Nas…..AND THEN ME.”
Eminem
“til i collapse”
So while Eminem is DEFINITELY top 5-10 ALL TIME, EVEN HE KNOWS, UNDERSTANDS, AND WILLINGLY ADMITS ON MORE THAN ONE OCCASION that he is NOT the G.O.A.T., so please calm down stans.
CONGRATULATIONS on MTV nominations by the way mr. mathers. People so often confuse ANY AND ALL opinions about you NOT being the G.O.A.T. with hate for you. Definitely not the case. Definitely top 10, and depending on whats going on TOP 5 dead or alive. Greatest MASTER OF THE TECHNICAL ASPECTS of rap of all time hands down though. Noone can manipulate, enunciate, and compose syllables like you. Another reason i think people like to call you the G.O.A.T. for rap overall i think? Oh well.

I mean, fuck shyt balls! and in other news, Perezhilton sits down for an interview with president Obama about his stance on a two state solution in Israel…fuckin backwards ass fast food media bullshyt i swear!
Now back to eminem, isn’t he just awesome!!!!
MTV IS A SHADY BUSINESS, THEY PICK EMINEM FOR WHITE AUDIENCE TO WATCH.
TEFLON DON IS A CLASSIC AND ALBUM OF THE YEAR.
EMINEM = VANILLA ICE OF THIS DECADE
HOV THE G.O.A.T.
How is the forever track nominated for best hip hop but not best collaboration?!?!?!?!?
S
he shouldn’t go they’re going to give everything thing to that gaga moron
@mac DIESEL !true!I grew up on all those cats you mentioned including KRS1,Big Daddy Kane,dudes like that.These new cats have no substance like the dudes before them,thats the reason why Em and Jay are still relevant and still killing shit.The new cats can’t catch the ear of mainstream America.You say that they don’t need that but,they do.When you move units you get tours across the World and hit the charts all over the World also.Just because guccis’ bullshit ryhmes hit the hood hard doesn’t mean shit.He can never be global because he lacks Star power!Kanye does,even Weezy does and Drake now out of the new cats.Sorry youngns’ but,you need some better representatives!!!Shady is that dude!!!!Sorry but,The TRUTH HURTS!!!
I don’t know if he was being sarcastic or not. With his whole melancholy-sober persona these days I’m leaning more towards not and if that’s the case….what a dick!
I mean, in the history of the VMA’s I’m sure there’s never been any indirect (not even direct FFS) scheduling conflicts right?!?! WTF Get off your own nuts Marshall. Catch a private jet homie while I play the world’s smallest violin for your whining ass.
Congrats to Em, but FUCK MTV, they have used him for years and they wanna do the same this time around too huh?!!. MTV SUCKS…Id rather get an award from Nickelodeon than MTV…Blow them off man..like they have your fans and you.
Just my opinion
Fuck what ya heard! Shady da king.
mtv is 1 big popularity contest. Only check 4 hiphop anyway, nd i dnt giv a fuck abt any of thse videos. Tht B.o.b video sucked. Wt abt roots’ how i got ova vid. Fuck eminem 2 plat or not many could chew hm up on tht mic.Put hm wit Nas nw. Fuck vma’s, mtv’s unbelievable dickriding, eminem, lady gaga, machine driven artists nd their fans.
mtv is 1 large popularity contest. The same ‘popular’ ppl al the time evry year. Dickeating evry fuckng year. Wherez r th kanyes 2 snatch awards nd air out this constant fuckery.
