This past Super Bowl halftime show was definitely legendary, but as it usually does, controversy follows Eminem wherever he goes.

The 8 Mile superstar took a knee during his performance and those in opposition lost their collective minds.

The gesture was an homage to the kneeling in silent protest against racism and police brutality which was started in 2016 by former 49ers QB Colin Kaepernick.

Many in right-wing media condemned the Detroit rapper using the national platform to display his politics.

Dr. Dre was asked for his take on the situation and stated, "Em taking the knee, that was him doing that on his own and there was no problem with that."

I guess if Eminem had flags, riot gear, a semi-truck and bear spray his quiet protest would have been better received.

But that's just my take!
