Eminem is Overrated

[Dictator]

Yea I said it. Eminem isn't even top 6 rappers of alltime, some people claim he's the GOAT.

As far as freestyling, Eminem is probably the GOAT but everything else, hell nawl.

Lettuce Discuss:

[MichaelCheazley]

Eminem is one of my favorite rappers. But I do agree he is not the greatest. He is top 10 imo. Im curious as to where you rate him and why you think hes overrated. Please make some actual arguments. Im intrigued.

Even top 10 is arguable....anyway I won't state my top six over him because everyone has different views, but he's sure not the GOAT.

[MichaelCheazley]

Can you post your top ten anyways? Im just interested.Maybe the type of rappers will show why u dislike him. No need for explanations just names. Im not sure if anyone considers em GOAT anyways.

Some rappers I believe that are better than Em going by primes just off the top of my head. No order

Nas,Wu-Tang,Gang Starr,Biggie,Ice,Canibus,run dmc,Jay z,Big Pun,

[Dictator]

where the fvck do you guys come up with these numbers?

"PACS NOT EVEN TOP 17. BUT HE IS A TOP 12 IN SEXY VOICENESS"

You sound dumb. You rate rappers by how good they are, simple as that. If your mind can comprehend the difference between tiers of bad-alright-good-awesome, then you shouldn't be posting.

you shoulda of copy and pasted the names of each over the link.

[MichaelCheazley]

Wutang and run dmc arent one rapper. They are both groups that consist of rappers with styles that compliment each other which as a result produces some fantastic songs. The only people I agree that should be in the top ten are nas and biggie from your list-maybe Jay-z who is in no way beter than prime emiem. And please gtfo with cannibus.

how is he overrated. And when you say "best rapper" what do you mean by that? actual rap skills or popularity and impact? if you mean rap skills than jay z eminem lil wayne and most of the main stream rappers arnt even top 50 in the country. But if your talking about impact on culter, popularity and records sold...eminem is GOAT.

[L8k3r5]

Another good song with Eminem

dont even try to say eminem doesnt have rap skills. if you honestly believe that then you have never listened to any songs of his before 2002

[bdreason]

The guy put out a half-ass album (by his standards) last year and took home a Grammy. Compared to other current mainstream rap artists, Em is god.

You can't be serious. Both me & you know why he get grammies.

[Premeditated]

This might be the greatest thread ever. I've been saying this since I've registered here. Don't forget 2Pac too.

Because his main competition was Drake and B.O.B.

:roll:

[Legends66NBA7]

Overrated ? Nope.

He's either the GOAT rapper or Top 2-3.

Come on now, we both know that the grammy's are a joke. Rick Ross cant even get a nomination for his albums Deeper Than Rap and Teflon Don but Eminem wins those two years??? WTF?

Look at all of these albums that could have won but didnt even get nominated during those two years:

Ross- Teflon Don/ Deeper Than Rap
Nas & Damien Marley- Distant Relatives
Fat Joe- the Darkside Vol.1
Big Boi-Sir Lucious Left Foot
Wale-Attention Deficit
Kid Cudi: Man on the Moon: the End of the Day/ Legend of Mr. Rager
Raekwon- Only built for cuban linx II
Mos Def- The Ecstatic

That's a shame that relapse and recovery won and some these didnt even get nominated. Especially Distant Relatives, Deeper than Rap, SLLL and Raekwons albums..

i agree but...rick ross? :no:

Tell me what on Recovery is even touching Freemason, Tears of Joy, Maybach Music III,All The Money in the world.

What on Relapse other than Beautiful is on the level of Mafia Music, Rich off cocaine, usual suspects??

[dunksby]

Rap is overrated, seriously a music genre without any musical instruments actually being played?

Come on you catch my drift here. How many alltimers you seen who got a band? Dont tell me Rap is about the music cause when ppl start talking rap its all how the Rapper is gangstah or his lyrics are mean or bullshit like that. I personally have never heard of someone saying hey that pianist/keyboardist/guitarist/violinist etc with Eminem/Snoop/2pac and so on is awesome.

[heavensdevil]

Em used to be THE BEST rapper out, and this is coming from a non-white guy. But lets be real and brutally honest, Eminem is only a shell of his former self. He has fallen off significantly, if anyone on this board refuses to admit that, they are either caucasian, or just dont know anything about rap.

trolled you :oldlol:

Nas is my favourite rapper. And imo he is the GOAT.

But everyone has their own opinion

this song is crazy!!!

Deja vu, stay wide awake and my darling.

You serious?

[MichaelCheazley]

You cited beautiful.... are you serious?

[PowerGlove]

:eek: :oldlol:

Beautiful was the best song off relapse by far. It actualy had a message, lyrics that actually meant something.

Not the generic, rape, kill women shit that you just posted.

[MichaelCheazley]

Umm you're the one critiquing lighters for not belonging in the album and being cheesy. That in essence is beautiful...


"Not the generic, rape, kill women shit that you just posted."

I thought you liked the old slim shady? Kim,97 bonnie and clyde,kill you?

I liked Kill You, not the others and I dont remember ever admitting that in this thread. I understand I'm a little hypocritical but I can only stand so much of the same. If Rick Ross is still talking about the same shit 7-8 years from now I'll criticize him too. Same with any other rapper I like.

Lighters and Beatiful are not one in the same...imo relapse was trash and probably his worst album ever...it had no momentum and so many wtf moments(getting raped by his stepdad???) it was refreshing to hear something that actually made sense, something relatable and not corny as hell like lighters.

[MichaelCheazley]

IMO encore was worse.

[daballa13]

LMFAOOOOOOOOOO at the guy mentioning Rick Ross. Please STFU you ignorant tool. Rick Ross is straight trash.

[RRR3]

Not top 5

Big L, Big Pun, 2Pac, Nas, Biggie Smalls

[dunksby]

Here we go with this :facepalm

So just because they don't play an instrument means they are not talented? You don't think actual rapping takes skill?
I never said they were not talented, my main criticism is that a constant boring beat for 4-5 minutes with a guy rappin dont make good music. It might be a kinda music but for sure it aint good music hence the huge attention Rap gets makes it overrated.

Rap is overrated, seriously a music genre without any musical instruments actually being played?

[ArbitraryWater]

another one... sorry bro, Em has the respect of all his peers, top 10.


Overrated ? Nope.

He's either the GOAT rapper or Top 2-3.

yes
