<p>
Associated Press </p>

<p>
PITTSBURGH -- Eminem mentions Ben Roethlisberger in his latest song: "Despicable."</p>

<p>
The million-selling rapper refers to the Steelers' troubled quarterback in explicit lyrics and with the lines, "I'd rather turn this club into a bar room brawl. Get as rowdy as Roethlisberger in a bathroom stall."</p>

<p>
A 20-year-old college student accused Roethlisberger of sexual assault following a March 3 incident in a Milledgeville, Ga., nightclub. Roethlisberger doesn't face charges, but he was suspended for six games by NFL commissioner Roger Goodell.</p>

<p>
While Eminem is releasing a new album called "Recovery," the song referencing Roethlisberger will not be included. The song was posted at a website co-founded by Eminem's manager.</p>]]></description><link>https://brownsboard.com/topic/11406/eminem-rips-ben</link><generator>RSS for Node</generator><lastBuildDate>Thu, 01 Oct 2026 21:32:45 GMT</lastBuildDate><atom:link href="https://brownsboard.com/topic/11406.rss" rel="self" type="application/rss+xml"/><pubDate>Fri, 30 Apr 2010 02:54:23 GMT</pubDate><ttl>60</ttl><item><title><![CDATA[Reply to Eminem Rips Ben on Mon, 10 May 2010 19:45:09 GMT]]></title><description><![CDATA[<p><img src="http://www.smackapparel.com/userfiles/image/productimages/clevelandbadnewsbenLARGE.jpg" alt="clevelandbadnewsbenLARGE.jpg" /></p>

<p>
The people who run the media are jewish and they love forcing interracial stuff on us. They have rap in commericals, movies, tv shows, and to top it all off even in some of the kids movies that disney and dreamworks puts out. Before I get slammed for what I just said, yes I do listen to rap once in a while but not this new crap they play on the radio. I listen to Eazy-E, Spice 1, Deltron 3030, Del The Funky Homosapian, Too Short, Run DMC, etc... Anymore it all sound's the same. If they're not rapping about weed then it's bling, money, rims, or some word they just made up. </p>]]></description><link>https://brownsboard.com/post/172535</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://brownsboard.com/post/172535</guid><dc:creator><![CDATA[Speedyd900rr]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Wed, 05 May 2010 20:19:37 GMT</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Reply to Eminem Rips Ben on Wed, 05 May 2010 19:31:02 GMT]]></title><description><![CDATA[<blockquote><p>Sivlerback DPOY <a href="/post/172437">said</a>:</p>It's gold when Poe and Shakespeare write it....Why the hypocriscy in media, politics and all of society?</blockquote>

<p>
Your right about that. Swearing and racial slurs are heard a lot more in rap than books. But many books geared for teens and young adults do have swearing and slurs degrading to race, gender, ethnicity and mental/physical problems. Uncensored Eminem cd's, by law, must have a parental advisory sticker on them. How come books that use the same langauge don't have that mandatory sticker? The book "Of. Mice and Men" is in most high school English teacher's ciriculums. Despite the swearing, the degrading slurs toward blacks, woman and the mentally challenge and the killing of a mentally challenged man there is not a parental advisory sticker on the book most teens will be exposed to.</p>]]></description><link>https://brownsboard.com/post/172529</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://brownsboard.com/post/172529</guid><dc:creator><![CDATA[Spunkonmyback DPOY]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Wed, 05 May 2010 18:56:50 GMT</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Reply to Eminem Rips Ben on Wed, 05 May 2010 13:11:26 GMT]]></title><description><![CDATA[<blockquote><p>Sivlerback DPOY <a href="/post/172437">said</a>:</p>Haha.

<p>
I agree that he sucks when he is serious for the most part but lately i think he has been great. His verses on Forever and Drop the World are amazing.  The fact that Despicable is a free style just blows my mind and shows how talented he really is.  I do think his early stuff is easily his best though.</p>]]></description><link>https://brownsboard.com/post/172341</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://brownsboard.com/post/172341</guid><dc:creator><![CDATA[BearcatBrownsFan13]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Tue, 04 May 2010 15:27:27 GMT</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Reply to Eminem Rips Ben on Mon, 03 May 2010 00:12:44 GMT]]></title><description><![CDATA[<p>Ben Rapistburger, lol.

He's going to walk the line or he will have successfully destroyed his career.  If another incident occurs I have zero doubt he'll be cut from the Steelers and cast off by nfl teams as a franchise starter or a risk woth taking player for that matter.  He will be a model citizen from here on out.</p>]]></description><link>https://brownsboard.com/post/171915</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://brownsboard.com/post/171915</guid><dc:creator><![CDATA[Vagitron]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sat, 01 May 2010 08:56:18 GMT</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Reply to Eminem Rips Ben on Sat, 01 May 2010 04:34:08 GMT]]></title><description><![CDATA[<blockquote><p>FREAKofSTEEL08 <a href="/post/171901">said</a>:</p>Ben made his "Bed" ( On a RR Counter-top at that ) Now its time to Lay in it .
