I think that's more true now. His serious songs from his early days were actually good. But now he sounds whiny.
He is a very skilled artist, but when he misses he really misses, a lot of that pop artist dissing stuff was lame. When he hits it's incredible though, he was very good at conveying emotion, and also being funny/entertaining.

Re: Is Eminem garbage
He is technically the best rapper I have ever heard, to this day. In terms of cadence, multi-syllabic rhyme schemes, wordplay and just overall lyricism, I don't see how he can be matched.
I understand people don't like the Rihanna songs, some of his emo-type shit lately and the silly songs he's done like Fack, Just Lose It, etc. And I don't really like those songs either, but the fact is, on a song where Em spits bars, I could listen to the song 10x over and find a new piece of wordplay or a reference I missed last time. And THAT is the sign of a good lyricist in my eyes.

He's the best rapper ever but the competition is a joke

Re: Is Eminem garbage
I've been starting to realize how overrated he is
He wasn't relevant for that long, his reign on top of the game was pretty short.

Not a big fan of his stuff now, but he still drops some good stuff in there. the 2 Rihanna songs, Not Afraid, Rap God etc. are all very strong and show his skill level and pathos.
Agree 100%. Although i am not too crazy about his new stuff, he is one of the greatest of all time in terms of both talent and cultural significance.
I am guessing most of the people shitting on him in this thread are young-ish. Eminem blew up 17 years ago, so unless you are like 30+ years old you didnt really get to experience his peak.
