No i think the color of his skin is why he is more successful than any other rapper on earth including people with more talent than him.


Lol'd.

Also laughable and equally cringe worthy.

Which rappers do you consider to have more talent than Eminem? He has some of the most unique rhymes in the mainstream rap community--I know there are some "underground" artists like Aesop who also have great diction, but for the most part rappers in the limelight suck ass.

Agreed. I'm not a fan of his but he can do anyone else's style and nobody can do his.

He also murdered Jay Z on his own shit.

Although Jay Z did something with Linkin Park that Eminem couldn't. And I'm not sure if Eminem could address political topics like Tupac could.


(was hard to find one with half decent sound)

I'm not saying Kendrick is the best at this time. But imo mainstream rap is changing faster than Eminem seems to be doing to stay interesting.
/e: All of it, is part of talent.

Eminem is too busy exploring his mommy issues to do political stuff.

Nas is my all time favorite. Tupac was great as well, so inspirational.

I've just been listening to Against Me!'s new album non-stop lately....best punk album in decades.

If you think Nas is better than Eminem, you should be checked for head trauma.

Eminem is the undisputed best rapper of all time

I said he is my favorite. He doesn't whine about his mom not being nice enough to him like Em.....who has at least multiple albums covering nothing but mommy issues.

I suppose i think Nas's content and lyrics are much better. He doesn't get all the good beats like Jay Z tho.

/e: Yeah I liked Nas too. Although I don't think he'll have that much of a historical impact. Eminem will a bit more, due to being the first white significant rapper with high skills.
Yet I don't think he'll be that cultural relevant due to indeed not getting over mommy issues and not gaining further depth in his performance.
