ITT: One of the greatest hip-hop verses of all-time

[fawkingjoocy]

Kool G Rap: "I can't ignore the fact that that boy Eminem is incredible. He's lyrically incredible. Anybody that's ever sat and fronted on this dude's talent is, like, come on, man. Stop playing me."

Nas on Eminem: "He contributes so much lyrically and musically. He's amazing."

The Game: ""One thing that stuck with me is that Eminem is not to be ****** with ever in hip-hop, ever."

Hopsin: "Eminem, he was the one I wanted to be like when I heard his music. I'm like, 'Man, this dude, I relate to him a lot.' He was my role model. That was the rapper that stood out more than any other rapper in the rap game. I didn't even like rap that much until he came in the scene."

Snoop Dogg: "When Eminem was on Jay-Z's song, he ****** cuz up on that record! You know what record I'm talking about. He ****** him up on that record completely. Like, damn!"

Lupe Fiasco: "(on battling other rappers) I can't f*** with Eminem, but I got everybody else covered."

Tech N9NE on Eminem: "That n****'s damn-near like the best rapper out here when it comes to technique, technical rhyming, wordplay, and **** like that."

Eminem: "im not the greatest, not even close. I'd put Nas or Biggie or Tupac above me honestly"

[Ben844]

See sig.

His part in 'Forever' was also epic.

Eminem: "im not the greatest, not even close. I'd put Nas or Biggie or Tupac above me honestly"

no one would admit to being the best, it would make them look like a huge tool. Doesn't mean he's not.

I never said he's the best though anyway, read OP

[Mister-Lean]

SM is sick but they have fallen off lately, used to be a long time fan.

Agreed. Black Magic was their last great album. Their new stuff isn't bad, it just isn't on the same level as Balance, Bad Dreams, Monsters in the Closet and Black Magic.

Just cause Em said in the verse that he was about to spit the greatest verse of all time doesn't make it so.
Also, Inspectah Deck's verse on Wu Tang Clan's Triumph is so ill, one of the best verses ever, certainly sh!ts on No Love.

[dannyg2127]

1st verse of murder, murder by eminem was better.

[phikappa]

He's a lyrical poet, in case you didn't know it.

[wallyworld34]

came in expecting
"dead in the middle of little italy little did we know
that we riddled some middleman who didn't do diddily"
left disappointed

this.

One rebuttal to my seven. And it depends on what year Em said that. He made a song called "G.O.A.T" on his Straight from the Vault EP. So even though he made a list of rappers who were better than him in 2002 (on Till I Collapse), he now considers himself to be at least a contender for GOAT. And he deserves it too. Look at his success. Who else can match the streak of the SLLP, MMLP, and The Eminem Show?

entered thread expecting the overrated Eminem instead of someone like GZA, Nas, KRS-One, or others who are actual lyrical geniuses, not just famous.

Nas? I love him and his style but he is NOT a lyrical genius, he is great but by no means a genius

reserve that title for those who it fits

[derkerkjerk]

Load: Illmatic > Play All

Seriously, I normally hate when things are considered GOAT by so many as it always seems overrated, but it's impossible to deny that this is the definitive album in the genre.

[M3th0dMK01]

Eminems verses from his Infinite days >

Plus easily arguable on one of the greatest hip hop verses of all time, Nas, Ras Kass, Rakim etc. All have some of the illest verses in Hip Hop history.

look at your own quotes retard, they give him props, but dont say he's the greatest or even greater than themselves. OP says hes ONE of the greatest, which is not my opinion but reasonable. what you're saying (eminem is the GOAT) is ****ing stupid and even your own evidence doesnt say it.

[BoneSkinny]

Despite the hate, Kanye has great songs as well.

Obviously a different style than typical GOATS such as eminem, nas, tupac, big

fuk yes. Jay Elec. spits fire. How you Red bro??

To OP: I agree, that verse is unbeleivably underrated. Along with these verses.:

[sandpapergooch]

Not an eminem fan but this is his best song and if someone asked me to describe why people like eminem I'd play this

[YasiinBey]

You serious? You're one of those hipster *******s who sh!ts on em cause hes popular? hes popular cause he's good *******. You cant listen to that verse and tell me he isnt an "actual lyrical genius"

hipster boy lmao

by that logic i can say soulja boy is good just cause he's famous. not saying em is bad but watch how you choose your words

[nab2point0]

fuk yes. Jay Elec. spits fire. How you Red bro??

To OP: I agree, that verse is unbeleivably underrated. Along with these verses.:

Your sig doesn't even have Nas, Jay-Z or even any of the wu-tang clan. Wtf...

[fawkingjoocy]

this. id say most people like eminem because they like his songs(dr. dre would help in this) not because they sit down and really listen to his lyrics

[ho_124]

Gowt.

[neighborr]

by that logic i can say soulja boy is good just cause he's famous. not saying em is bad but watch how you choose your words

Obviously i dont mean everyone is that way. I obviously know soulja boy, bieber, kesha, and krispy kreme are not talented. but eminem is different. a lot of people respect his music which is part of the reason why his sales are high

[flexnation]

Your sig doesn't even have Nas, Jay-Z or even any of the wu-tang clan. Wtf...

Top 10 rappers currently in the game.

Jay hasnt done shiet solo wise since BP3 which was a massive dissapointment IMO.
Nas had life is good which i think was #3 or 4 album of 2012.

3rd verse (3:15)

Lol nah OP he's had MUCH better verses, wouldn't even be in the top 50 verses of all time,listen to some classic albums then come back.
Kendrick Is only young, still got time to grow , but to say he can't rap ? Loool







He can Storytell, has some of the best uses of Internal/Half Rhyme, sick flow and he can rap his ass off.
