@GunTown nobody gives af abt singing rappers in hip hop except u ?
Sn: saw fetty wap perform live without autotune ? was as terrible as ya posting -
Believe it or not, sales do matter in legendary talk.
In 50 - 100 years when talk of hip hop takes place, Eminem's name will be brought up and his record sales within our art form will be mentioned.
The one white boy that came in our culture and became the best selling rapper of all time and the second best selling solo artist of all time behind Garth Brooks.
43 million albums cannot be easily reproduced. The way of the world means a white boy can use hip hop to do this. White privilege.
And he only managed this by directly appealing to the WW pop audience by sending shots at popular artist of that particular time. White people found it amusing. More white privilege.
Please remember, a black rapper couldn't go at Britney Spears and Taylor Swifts without a major backlash and probably ending his/her career. -
I can't get into Eminem, but he couldn't have managed it if he couldn't hold his own as a rapper.
The boy can rap, he's white and he found a way into pop culture.

Ain't na ? I kno ? w/ Masta Albino aka MC Miracle Whip
Wigga was skilled as an MC, & he had some piff features & good (SSLP) to very good (MMLP, TES) jawns in the late 90's-early 00's, but post-TES he's about as captivating as a used ?
Wigga makes ? awful, ? addict McDonald's music for trailer park thots & pathetic ? & has fallen off worse than any rapper he came up w/ & maybe any rapper ever
@ this pt a link to an Em song might as well be a link to ? porn for how quickly I skip over that ? & pretend I never seen it -
Nope, like i said before.metal face terrorist wrote: »Man, musically Eminem is wack. What scenario would you even play his music.
In the crib chilling or cleaning up?
NOPE
Riding solo late night cruising on the highway?
Not at all
With the homies?
Nah son.
With ya girl going to see a movie?
? no.
The club?
? please.
As a teenager, I was rocking with him. As an adult at 30, going back to listen to his ? now, his music is just corny. SNL like corny, cringe worthy. Definitely all the pop artist disses. He gets no ? props for that. Yall crown him for that ? . Skill set wise, he's up there. He can rap. But I hate rapping ass rappers.
NOT A LEGEND.

"I don't like his music personally... none of my friends listen to him... but since he sold a lot of records, I'll agree to call him a legend"...

we had this thread already. stop trying to discredit popular artist because u have a personal issue with them. Em made his impact in the game already. now its time for one of these new ? to step in. I hate yall ? .

just some crazy Hermit IC ? on here
T/S got to much emotion, racist thread
-
Yeah but not as high as his white washed fanbase thinks.
Eminem has had a Charlie Sheen-ish career. He did some things, cause some scandals, but he really never had a classic movie.
to the people who go outside hes had classic albums
dumb ? logic like this killed the IC -
Imo as a black man I have no problem calling him a legend....I wouldn't call him a goat tho but to say he ain't a legend is just hate

SSLP, others like MMLP//eminem show
if tupacs "All Eyez on Me" filler galore album can be considered a classic on the IC one of those albums is certainly a classic
racism and personal grudges blind you hermits -
His First 3 Albums (Including Infinite) Were Tolerable) But After That His Sound Was Nails On A Chalkboard
-
Sion and guntown must be sharing the same ? pipe
-
Before Eminem who was rapping/singing about regular everyday average person issues like parenting, depression, family troubles, welfare backround, love, marriage
Then u have other regular content rappers rapping/singing about the same content like Kid Cudi, B.o.B
Never heard of 2pac what about all the countless rappers that came before him that did the same/similar thing -
No one should ever question the legacies of
Eazy E
Dre
Cube
LL
Rakim
Pac
Big
Jay
Wu tang
Snoop
Em
50
Wayne
Kanye
There's more but damn to say any of those dudes aren't legends is just crazy. Thank those dudes for the legendary music they put out -
Em a legend off impact. First white boy that really had that go.

Eminem show (his 4th) was his best album to me. His other projects weren't bad. He played around a lot for the other albums and then he got into that super hero rap ? . But I still ? with it -
Em is a legend to white people

There's a difference be between "hottest rapper" and legendary rapper. Eminem was hot for a minute. He a dope lyricist. When u say legend, though, your music has to be timeless. Tell me which one of yall ? is bumping "my name is"??

he did just as much for the art form as jayz, if not maybe more. he created the first hiphop channel on satellite radio pushing the genre forward. His music broke barriers and milestones in hiphop. He put on 50 (another legend) and allowed him also to push the genre forward. -

None of that ? changed how anybody spit and his radio station was not the first hip-hop based station. What barriers?? Hip-hop was popular among whites before him. -
He's a legend...never been a fan tho
