Eminem won six awards at the recently concluded Billboard Awards Ceremony. I don't think i am surprised one bit, and i am not going to say he won them because he is white. He won because he produced a lovely album last year...an album that went on to be the best selling album last year, in all genre's and not rap alone. It also produced lovely, high selling singles like, "Not Afraid", "The Way You Lie" and "No Love" featuring Lil Wayne.
In 2009, he knew he messed up with the "Relapse" album, so he immediately went back into the studio, and he put his whole efforts into it. Apart from the song with pink, i think i like every other track on that album.

Eminem tied Bieber for the most awards at six wins. Out of 46 award categories, Shady took home nods for Top Artist, Top Male Artist, Top Rap Artist, Top Billboard 200 Album [Recovery], Top Rap Album and Top Rap Song [“Love The Way You Lie” ].
While the selection process by the National Acacemy of Recording Arts and Sciences has recently come under fire for their more subjective methods used for selecting Grammy Award winners, Billboard stated, “all finalists and winners were determined by a combination of chart performances.” The eligibility period for nominations ran from February 28, 2010 through March 1, 2011. The amount of their respective awards reflected the strength of Eminem and Bieber’s current sales. To date, Em’s Recovery has sold over 3.8 million copies, while Bieber’s My World 2.0 has moved over 2.7 million units.
Notable performers Sunday night were Cee-Lo Green, Beyonce, Mary J. Blige and Lil Wayne, and Rihanna and Nicki Minaj, who both featured Britney Spears as a guest performer.
I think Justin Beiber also deserved every award he got, cos he really worked last year, and this would be a compensation for all the awards he was meant to get at the Grammy Awards. I think it wasn't cool what they did to Beiber and Drake at the Grammys; denying them of what the world knows they derserved.
