Why can't some people admit Eminem is the greatest rapper of all-time?

[NasStan]

Tupac? Big? Jay?

Eminems first two albums were fire.he never gets better. His last few albums have been overhyped booty. I'd even consider Kanye having a better list of hit.

Kanye definitely has a better discography. Eminem is the better rapper no doubt, but album quality wise Kanye wins easy.

[Godyssey]

I listened to College Dropout, Late Registration, that album with Stronger on it, and 808's. I used to be a huge fan of his, then I woke up and realized he sucks.

lmao. I know Kanye's chit up through 808's better than either of you.

Cant argue with someone who has no idea what he is talking about. youre truly retarded

The Game has said eminem is the greatest rapper of all time.

The Game has an Eazy E tat on him and is known as the biggest dikkk rider in the history of music and he changed Games life. of course he will say that.

Kanye definitely has a better discography. Eminem is the better rapper no doubt, but album quality wise Kanye wins easy.

most hate kanye so much they haven't listened to him enough to know what his discography holds. its seriously epic.

[swifty17]

a better discography doesnt mean they are a better rapper. Someone can have 1 album in their life, and still be a better rapper than eminem. Having a better discography includes beats, production, catchyness etc.

We are talking about being a better rapper, lyrically. No one can touch eminems lyrics or word play, not even close.

[ChoFFM]

Em is a fukkin strong mc
But let's be honest, he isn't even the best white rapper
Brb RA is full underground for over 20 years and still **** on most the mainstream gives us

right...

[the_limit]

Cuz it's all about opinion brah.



STRANGE!

Music



Bitch.

[ChoFFM]

right...

fukn lold
i have to agree college dropout and graduation are lately one of hip hop finest

[Unfinishedsenta]

Eminem been chit for at least 9 years now he not the best rapper of all time. He can get top 10 subjectively. Even chief Keef recent music been better than Eminem. op in denial, Eminem stopped making good music ages ago. Ppl itt aren't being honest and have gone retarded af with hyping him up

lost all creditability right there

Usually people who say Eminem is the GOAT have listened to a very small amount of rap. Plenty of rappers are better lyricists than Eminem.

I used to be the biggest Em fan on this site. I even mixed a few tapes with Shadyville a few years back.

Even I can't deny that Kanye's catalog destroys Em's. Kanye is a much more consistent producer and artist. I do think Em's new work is underrated just because he set the bar so high 15 years ago... Kanye has one consistent sound that has evolved through each album while Em dropped the Bass Bros and is still trying to find a new sound... its unfair to compare the two anymore tbh

Eminem first two albums (not inc infinit) ssep and mmLP I still listen to them to this day, his lyrics are unbelievable the way he rhymes words/multiple words is far beyond any other rapper

His lyrics go far beyond flash cars, popping bottles, guns, hot women.

Dont try to Palm me off as a fan boy because I can recognise that his albums since the eminem show have been pure garbage. People would do well to remember he was suffering from drug addiction through most of his more recent albums

[KingKringe]

one of the best ( for me the best personally )

but it's up to the individual, would be fawkin lame if everyone had the same tastes, bad or good is up to perspective, i really like his relapse album because hes the only one who comes up with some twisted and demented **** (no rodger)

[ItsBrettFavre]

The Game has said eminem is the greatest rapper of all time.

...and I'm supposed to care about what The Game has to say about the subject, why exactly?

Exactly the opposite, bro. He was on drugs for all the good albums and has been clean for everything since Relapse.

because you said no black person has ever said eminem is the greatest.......

I think Games black,... isnt he ?

[PKneyr]

He has a ****gy high pitched voice. How is he so big is mind blowing to me.

There are thousands of white rappers no one gives a **** about. Being white is not an advantage in rap...

[ItsBrettFavre]

right...

Graduation, couldn't recall it off the top of my head off the bat. No, didn't google it. I used to own all four of those albums on CD. Believe what you will.

I'm not talking about the opinions of his fellow mainstream rapper celebrities. Asking The Game what his thoughts are on Eminem is not comparable to going to the ghetto in Compton or New York and asking the residents the same question.

With all due respect I think your mistaken, he was undoubtably on recreational drugs on the first few but I'm talking about the drugs that caused him the real problems witch was the addiction to sleeping pills and other downers, there is a reason the albums are named recovery and relapse

lol, who really gives a chit if they dont think he is the greatest? most of them are biased and will probably say lil wayne is the greatest.



eminem said it best when he said:

Sometimes I listen and revisit them old albums
Often as I can and skim through all them bitches
To make sure I keep up with my competition

lol this isn't a matter of opinion. Elton John of all people was the catalyst to help Em quit altogether in mid-2008.

[SlootFlute]

BRB just wont Grammy for Album of the Year. Negged.

Did this potato just bring up the Grammy's??

lol you just self ethered yourself

Didn't Macklemore win over Kendrick??

The voters don't even listen to the most the albums srs

[Theboy314]

6:50-on my favorite part lol

Uh... okay.

[BuckN20T]

Because the GOAT title is an entirely subjective thing.

Nas is the GOAT imo, umad?

[KILLdante]

let's be honest. there's only one goat and that's the king of the underground.

supamuthafukinvillain

[rizzah]

Is it because he's white?

cuz it's not ALL about skills ,

2pac FTW

[Blacryan]

Em is a great rapper. Do I believe he is the "greatest"? No. Definitely in the top region. Music is so subjective that I think its very hard to put a #1 on it. But I'm mind blown some of you think kayne is a better rapper than eminem.

On that note, I'm more curious how some of you view tech n9ne?

[PowerOfWisdom]

to be honest all new rappers are ****ty

sure eminem has a couple of good tracks
but if you like "old school" rap, you would know eminem is mediocre.

NWA
Easy-E
Pac
Big

[NeverStopMoving]

Not a single mention of the Wu Tang clan in this thread, this thread sucks

GZA's liquid swords album is the greatest hip hop album of all time.
