And btw I love when you described to californiagrown why he isn't "emo rap" because emo is rapping about whining and slitting your wrists and everything else eminem talks about.. Oh wait. Lol I agree you may like him alot but best ever? Have you ever even heard of big l or oc or even ludicris.

No, he's actually not. It's you stupid kids that think just because some white guy can rap about "real stuff" that he's the greatest rapper all of time. And all that "real stuff" that you think is so great is actually a bunch of whining and complaining about all of his problems. So in all honesty, Eminem is a gigantic bitch. Go outside your comfort zone and listen to better music which actually conveys a relatable message.

Kids? Please.

I don't think "best", "greatest" or "ever" should even be uttered when it comes to things that progress or can be highly... what's that fucking word... heard and perceived differently, such as tastes, sights and sounds.

I don't know what you're talking about comfort zones. But I guess it's cooler to hate than like nowadays.

most people on here (despite being white) probably hate on him because its way cooler to listen to Wutang or some other seemingly "underground" shit.

if you like it, like it. if not, dont. whenever youre hating something that everybody else likes just for the sake of being anti-everything, you probably need to grow up.

i like a lot of bands but that doesnt mean that they cant produce shitty songs. i cant stand a lot of musical genres, but that doesnt mean that they are not good artists or anything.

meh, he used to be great, but as most of the great artist they had to keep up with the times and satisfy the audience witch is now 11-14 or something.. i remember being a little kid listening to him on a small blue mp3 player and i loved it, but as stated before, recovery etc is garbage. respect to him nonetheless.

At this point though we're just arguing tastes.. I could tell you 20 rappers I think are better but if were going based on album sales like op states of course people say he's the best based on numbers. But I would say what do twelve year olds know about rap and show me what else is in their cd collection and I'll concede that those numbers could maybe be relevant in the argument. Still top 20 in history sure in my collection he doesn't make top 50

Good on you, man. With that statement you could be classified as a stupid, young white kid.

Excessive use of questions marks and Caps, shitty spelling, closed by you saying that you do think he is good anyway.

His new shit sounds a lot different then his old shit hence everyone calling it "crap" He puts out different shit all of the time. and like I said started this thread to get everyones opinions out by saying he's the greatest. I agree with mike-o in that you can't have 1 single greatest in something that progess's just like skiing but hes a fuckin boss and is definately my favourite and is up in the top 10.

With for sure. I think that modern popular hip-hop catered to 11-14 -year-olds is hurting from both overproduction and thoughts of grandeur and then the super-simplified stuff on the other end.

This needs to stop. Peoples obsession with Wu Tang is ridiculous on this site, and if you actually think that every member of Wu Tang holds the top 10 spots (or 9 if you don't want to count Cappadonna) of the best rappers of all time then you're nuts. Do you honestly think U -God or Masta Killa is better than Biggie, Pac and Guru? The only person that deserves to be on a list like this is either GZA or Raekwon.

I'd love to see IT battle Em. I think Em would win with style and IT would win with content. There is no denying Em's ryme schemes, he has a flawless delivery and has changed how lyricists view a verse.

that is not true at all. by any means. i hate when people say eminem is the greatest rapper ever. it just shows your ignorance of the art of rap. biggie smalls IMO is the best rapper ever. but thats just me. to be honest, eminem doesnt fall in my top 5. maybe not even my top 10. my top 5 would go 1.biggie smalls 2.nas 3.big L 4.Guru 5.2pac. listen to those guys (and not just their most famous songs) and then come and try to tell me eminem is the greatest rapper ever

I have pretty much every biggie song and 2 pac song and a bunch of nas, don't get me wrong I love their raps but Eminems almost always got a better beat and a flow that can easily compete with them if not crush plus I loved the content of his old songs even his new shits decent though I know plenty of people don't because its so much different.

Did I ever say that area of Hip Hop is better than Eminem? No. Sure I listen to that stuff, but not habitually and I certainly don't let it cloud my judgement of good music. I just do not like Eminem and refuse to believe he's contributed anything genuine and "real" ,as you kids love to say, to Hip Hop.
