    My answer would be because he's not good enough or in other words, I can easily name 10 better emcees.

    Btw, what makes Eminem better than all of the guys before him who have inspired his rap style or rappers with similar styles?

    What makes Em better than Royce?

    What makes Eminem better than Pharoahe Monch?

    What makes Eminem better than Canibus?

    What makes Eminem better than Redman?

    What makes Eminem better than Masta Ace?

    ... It's definitely not catalog, because those pop singles Em releases automatically stops any of his albums from being great, let alone classic. (Take any of the universal hip-hop classics and place an Em single on it. That ? would drop at least 1mic.) It's not creativity, because those dudes I named are some of the most creative emcees out there. It's not longevity, because all of those people are still releasing albums to this date. And we all know it's not lyrics, because Em ain't like that with lyrics when speaking from an all-time standpoint, so what is it?

    all those rappers are just as talented MC's as Marshall....


    BUT THEY CANT WRITE SONGS as well as EMINEM... theres your ANSWER@!!.... thats why the rappers you posted are underground RAPPERS..... and not ARTIST... they cant write songs................

    only on the internet does anyone disagree that he's top ten.

    no point in spending energy trying to convince people whos life consists of typing paragraphs upon paragraphs about how much they hate entertainers.

    ive noticed that people who stay on these websites hate anyone who has gotten very successful through music. thats how you get ? statements like "jay-z is the most one dimensional rapper ever" said earlier in this thread. em, jay, and 50 are loved by people i see in person but when i check these sites the hate never stops

    IMO he's the best lyrical rapper, lyrically his skills are flawless...he has 3 classics to me, his first 3 albums were dope as hell to me..wasn't to keen on Encore and Relapse, recovery was a good album.

    i wonder how many rappers that co sign him know about those tapes though ? Its weird people would still co sign him after that.

    IMHO em has 3 good album but rest of his ? is overrated. Hes still cool though.

    agree

    Seriously if you're going to give a subjective answer, you have to compare it to something else in rap.

    Just saying something like he's one dimensional is pointless unless you show how other rappers aren't one dimensional.

    The slim shady lp is classic. Most of you haven't taken the time to lsiten to it from first track to last. His delivery, punchlines, subject matter, hunger is all on point. One of the greatest Debut albums. period.

    Those same people check out justin bieber and other wack artists. Why should I care about their opinion when they started listening to hip hop like in 05'.

    You mean also like Kane, Rakim, Scarface, KRS-one, & Chuck D? Ice Cube is pretty obvious, too.

    Exactly even Kool G Rap (Who's in my top 5). You take Em out u dont have a cocky ass 50 Cent and D12....

    Em's drug habit took away from his talent. When he's on drugs he's rapping about puke, ? , murder, or on some ? ? . But when he's sober he drops gems like "When Im Gone", "Collapse", or "Talking To Myself". So I can understand why people go against dude.

    Lol @ not being able to be racist as a teenager (13-19)

    ...and Eminem has no classics, and no influence, well positive influence anyway. Dude gave wack D12 and crab ass 50 Cent a wider platform for their music.
