Em is very skilled in terms of rhyming, but many are more potent writers.
As corny as Eminem became, nobody today f**kin with old em

And this is where people have to be real with themselves.
People like SONGS. If you can't translate that "talent" into a form the people can like, then don't expect more praise than necessary.
Cannot be stressed enough. No matter how humble Lupe may have been to Em, in reality, outside of freestyles, Lupe has him on everything else. Elzhi is right there with Lu.
havnt heard this in a minthe GOAT

I can honestly say I've heard every underground/rare Em track but there was one in there I don't think I've heard b4...the "ima shove guns in the mouths of ur loved ones" rap...any source for this?

Oh and yeah em is the GOAT

Are you agreeing or disagreeing? Em can write songs but a lot of his verses are empty rhyming to me. For instance gza and decks verse on cold world may not be super multi packed, but are very potent.
i remember when i 1st heard em..it was 97,and i was on house arrest listening to some local college radio station, and they played "just dont give a fukk", and i remember thinking "
, who is this asian muthafukka??"
he did catch my attention thou, but i never thought dude woulda blew up the way he did today

How many nikkas in the game can ACTUALLY freestyle like this? If Em isn't the GOAT then idk who is
Perhaps in a parallel universe where Lupe never existed.
Even then, while Eminem is supremely talented, multi-syllabic rhyming and flow can only get you so far. No disrespect to his skill, but it's also easier to rhyme that way when your substance is lacking and you don't have to really focus on a particular topic.
I find an emcee like an Ab-Soul, Black Thought, Jay-Z, or Nas to be far more impressive with their lyricism than what someone like an Eminem.

and lol at ab soul being more impressive then eminem at rapping
anyways it is not easy yo rhyme multisyllablic while not rhyming the same word makng sense rhyming in complex patterns use multisyllabic words with rhyming syllables in them.
it is hard as shyt but the great ones like eminem make it look easy cause they have mastered it.
