Eminem?

[Orangey]

He seems like an ISTJ to me. All he ever does is go on Si rants about how hard he had to work to get where he is today. And he's intense and assholish.

Introverts can be performers. Introverts cannot be chronic and consistent attention whores - consistent attention whoring implies a desire for constant attention.

But that's part of his routine. It's part of what he does as a performer. If you watch him, watch his face, his body language, etc. when he's not performing there's no way he's an extrovert. If people can agree on nothing else, Eminem is OBVIOUSLY a clear introvert.

He also employs much too much Fi for it to be his inferior function.

How so? It fits how he conducts himself and his career perfectly (Ni and Te does, anyway).

I think it's possible that Eminem has Te that he developed as he grew older. I think it's also possible that his humor is Se, as you say. That's why I've always gone for ISFP with him, with INFP being the other type I could see him as...but ISFP more likely.

A lot of people think ISTP, but I think ISTP is just the Eminem character, not Marshall Mathers himself.

 

[Mondo]

I think he's an ISFP. His lyrics are filled with "damaged Fi".

Wrong.

INFJ

 

[Thalassa]

INFJ

Pray tell - how does Eminem have Fe?

Pray tell - how does Eminem have Fe?

This bozo thinks everyone is INFJ.

 

[Aleksei]

You know what Marm, I think you're right. Eminem is probably ISFP.

The Slim Shady character is a clear extrovert however (ESTP), hence my confusion.

 

[Rainne]

ISTP with unhealed scars.

 

[guesswho]

ESTP.

Why would he be introverted ?!

Social anxiety doesn't make you introverted.

 

[Cloud of Thunder]

I think he's an emotionally unstable ISTP.

 

[Nicki]

Very ISFP, definitely an Fi-dom
Slim Shady is definitely an ESTP though.

 

[Robopop]

Some are confused by his emotional re-activity(mistaking that for Fi) but he is definitely ISTP, he's just a highly neurotic ISTP.

ISFP 6w5 So/Sx.

This.

 

[Aleksei]

ENTJ SLE-Se 6w7 sx/sp.

6w5 is possible.

 

[lunalum]

At least we're all on the same page with the type 6 part......

 

[ndovjtjcaqidthi]

I would say INFP...

 

[Aleksei]

At least we're all on the same page with the type 6 part......

Well it wouldn't shock me if he were 8w9, or 4w3.

 

[Il Morto Che Parla]

Not an F.

There used to be someone on INTPc who was an INTJ, and she was convinced Eminem was INTJ.

That would explain why people are seeing a lot of Fi.

I don't know anything about him personally, just his music. But 90% of it is not emotional at all, but rather wordplay with no emotions.

It's just that those rare emotional songs, are disproportionately the hits.
