I've enjoyed his material though I don't go out of my way to listen to it often. Stan is an awesome song and a brilliant song for people wanting to check him out.
He mixes pop and rock into his music well and I like his sense I humor in his music.

Look, if you had one shot, one opportunity
To seize everything you ever wanted
one moment
Would you capture it or just let it slip?
Not top rate poetry, perhaps, but a friend of mine who's a high school teacher in Brooklyn (mostly lower class/poor students) has told me how this simple line has really inspired a lot of kids in his school. Sometimes, when you're down and out, a little prompting from a public figure you respect can do a bit of good. Sure, the underground guys may be better, but the mainstream needs its role models too.
On a personal note, I don't listen to his stuff myself and have minimal interest in rap. He may be a douche bag for all I know (or care). But that story my friend told me has stuck with me.

He is a God in these parts. I live 7 miles north of the infamous "8 Mile Road". I can't say that I am a fan however.

He's probably not even the best white rapper out there but I did enjoy Mosh.

His success speaks for itself. Personally I don't like his stuff. Much better rappers out there that don't always shout their way through songs.
