Exactly true. That's nice that so many (white) people like his music. But the man was a misogynist, drunk, drugged out, violent, tax evading, gradiose fool.
I am sure his music didn't make those he beat feel good... I like some of his stuff, but I cannot completly overlook someone's complet void of character just because they may be talented. I like the VW Bettle, but that doesn't mean I like Hitler (http://everything2.com/index.pl?node=Volkswagen%20Beetle).
