    slime you make it seem dropping they discography gon change people opinion.
    Eminem is not trash but he brought nothing to rap except to further prove the color of your skin will help you acheive more than actual skill.
    I remember someone on here saying 'If Eminem was black he'd be Redman' and that's truth.com/keepingitreal

    Nah but he opened the door for white rappers. I mean come on, thats huge. Yela, Asher, Mac Miller, Paul Wall.. I mean he opened doors for them dudes, and expanded the whole audience for every rapper. I use to only listen to rock when I was younger, and then I got into Em. And branched off from there, and I know alot of white dudes who are the same way. 50 would never have blown up to where he was without the Dre/Em cosign, and would not have gotten his own label. He would have been stuck at the same level as Styles P. Or who knows if he would have even been relevant after beef with Ja Rule? Everyone affiliated with shady/aftermath was going hard at Ja for 50. And to H-Rap, Yayo's album had some bangers on it. I enjoyed most of the album.

    Hell to the no.....

    OutKast is too influential, they changed the way people viewed Southern hiphop...Luke was doing porno raps, and Geto Boys was on that ? gangsta ish when you hear Outkast and Organized Noise its a whole nother element of sound.

    You delete Outkast and Southern HipHop wouldnt be the same.

    Pac was more overrated to me.. Lil wayne being deleted would have brought no drake or Nikki Minaj. I dont like either one of them, but u cant deny that they have the game on lock as of now.

    Beastie Boys relied a lot on their alternative rock fanbase too, though. Around the time Eminem came around, they were stuck on relying on their rock fanbase but still, Eminem deserves credit since he made white rappers have the chance of making it in the rap game after Vanilla Ice made them look like a joke.

    I cant give Emneim credit for that because 3rd Bass restored credibility to white rappers when they went at Vanilla Ice on the "Pop goes the weasal" song/video.

    Without 3rd Base and the respect of M.C. Serch within HipHop I doubt Emenim would have survived the racist tape fiasco.

    So illmatic is overrated??? U sit yo ass down. OutKast has 1 maybe 2 real classics. Both of bigs albums were classics. Nas has 2 classics to me. Jay has IMO has 3 classics.
