Toy Soldiers Eminem Story

why is this such a "bad" song?
The song Like Toy Soldiers by Eminem .... people say its so bad, why i listened and it sounded to me like he was talking about not wanting people to be killed. "why would i want to destroy something i helped build?" anyone know the "story" behind this song??
The song is Eminem denouncing all of the pointless violence created by rap music "beefs," as he puts it. He discusses how he was expected to defend 50 Cent from Ja Rule and how Dr. Dre told him not to get involved when rappers were insulting him. He basically states that he doesn't want other artists to insult his friends or family, but he'd give up rapping before he let a friend of his be killed/hurt by a ridiculous feud. I have no idea why anyone would think the meaning is "bad"; perhaps they just didn't enjoy it?

| | Toy Soldiers: Best Of $9.99 Resurrecting Martika from teen idol pop obscurity, Eminem took Kanye West's style of production and appropriated large chunks of her "Toy Soldiers" chart hit for the "Like Toy Soldiers" single from his 2004 Encore record. This sent red flags around Sony BMG, which has now reissued 1997's More Than You Know greatest-hits compilation with different packaging, a slightly altered track listing, and liner notes detailing where she's been since the glory years of her solo career. Along with the title track, her gutsy cover of Carole King's "I Feel the Earth Move" and the upbeat "More Than You Know" cover all the major bases right away, leaving the rest of the album to feature album favorites and minor hits. Also included are several remixes of her singles, including the stellar Prince remix of "Love..Thy Will Be Done," which is far superior to the original. Everything the casual fan could ever want or possibly need from Martika is included on this disc, and diehards will be happy to have a concise history of her career on a single disc. ~ Rob Theakston |

Eminem - Like Toy Soldiers
Understanding lyrics..Eminem Toy soldier?
You know how you listen to a song and wonder...what's the story behind xx
Does anyone know what inspired Eminem to write the lyrics he did for this Martika song?
http://artists.letssingit.com/eminem-lyrics-like-toy-soldiers-tbtw9gb
It tells the story of his attempts to calm a violent community of rappers. The song finishes as Eminem offers a truce to his enemies.
The song's video, released in 2006, which depicts Eminem's fellow D12 member Proof being gunned down in a drive-by shooting, took a sudden and tragic turn in the early hours of April 11, 2006, when Proof was actually shot and killed at the CCC nightclub on Detroit's 8 Mile Road.
In addition, this song also brings up some issues with his ongoing feud with Ja Rule who made some remarks about Hailie, Marshall's daughter, on a song called "Loose Change". Ja Rule called Eminem's wife 'a known s lut' and his mother a crackhead in the song and wondered what Eminem's 12 year old daughter Hailie was going to be "when she grows up".
