46. Has it occured to ANYBODY that he is SUCKING ON PURPOSE AS A MUSICIAN so that he can "get better" as he progresses? Its a distinct possibility. OR he could be the biggest self-saboteur in the history of entertainment. They're both equally plausible! AND THATS WHAT MAKES THIS RIDE SO INTERESTING! HE IS WALKING THE RAZOR'S EDGE OF MANUFACTURED REALITY! AT worst its interesting, at best its really the best acting job of this century thus far.

47. "41. your all a bunch of nobs. i never post comments but i just had to say that joaquin phoenix is clearly having a laugh! i seriously doubt he is going to try and have his own rap career. its probably a publicity stunt which has worked wonders!"

49. This guy is HORRIBLE! And to the people saying rap takes no talent. Shut the hell up. Lets see ANY of you make a hip hop song thats good. Also all the rap all your people ever heard is probably like 50 cent and lil wayne and all the crap they play on tv. There is A LOT of good quality hip hop out there. You just don't see it on tv.
