Crook’s Corner Podcast Exclusive Interview With Eminem

[Doodle]

Hahahha, damn he reminds me of a chick with this response, all that playing the innocent victim shyt. Eminen being a guest in hip hop isnt all he said about Eminem, lol, he has been throwing vitriolic rants at Eminem as an MC and a person for years now. If all he ever said was Eminem is a guest I'm sure Eminem wouldn't have said a word about him, he most likely would have cosigned it

I remember one time on the Godcast he told Em to grow a pair and respond to him. What did he expect to happen?

 

[HiiiPower]

fukk outtta here
and i'm no wayne stan either. now i have to defend wayne too in this idiotic thread.
eminem sucked since 2004 until kamikaze, which was slightly above average.
out.

Lil Wayne been trash since Carter 3, and he still gets tons of praise, so he wasn’t wrong at all

Only listened to like 4 minutes of it and all he's talking about is syllables and rhyme schemes, he sounds like that dude that be posting on here. He actually sounds like Cassidy, lol

He needs to expand his palate, rap skill doesn't = rhyming syllables. That was how I saw it too when I was like 17, lol...then I realized that most listeners don't care about or even notice that at all. You should incorporate it here and there if you're a reputable lyricist but there's plenty other things, like wordplay/voice/delivery/flows/subject matter/emotion/etc... that matter just as much as that when it comes to skills. I respect Eminem like crazy and how much he cares about the mechanics of rhyming but he needs to broaden his horizons, it would make him a better MC and a better song maker. Insane wordplay, to me, is like 10x more impressive and requires way more brainpower than internal rhyme patterns and doubles and all that

Ehhh, they're different skill levels but I wouldn't say one is more impressive then the other. Great wordplay and really well thought out internal rhyme schemes are equally as difficult. As someone who writes (And not to brag, I have come up with some pretty crazy metaphors), coming up with a simile or metaphor that's creative is really only a matter of being able to correlate subjects together with similar sounds words. It's dope as fukk, but not necessarily rocket science. Internal rhyme schemes, that are well thought out, not just "I'm super viscous, you too suspicion, your whole group is bytches, your Coupe is rented" type shyt, is fire as well. I'm talking really well put together internal rhymes, with multiple syllables, and it makes a full statement.

To me it's the difference between Jay and Nas. Jay was a master of wordplay but wasn't really big on flipping syllables (He could, but that wasn't what he focused on) because he's from the branch of Kane and Jaz O, while Nas was heavy into syllable usage because he's from the school of Rakim and G Rap. It's just takes a different mental capacity. I'm sure if you tried to sit down and write a well thought out metaphor and a well thought out internal rhyme, it would take the same amount of time.

I, personally, like rappers that are great at both. Like Loaded Lux. Most elite lyricist can do both.

 

[FreshAIG]

People keep saying Crooked I is dikkriding but y'all do realize Eminem is still his boss right? LOL.

 

[mobbinfms]

Ummmm, Em's discography is better than Nas

How?
Eminem has never made a 5 mic album and he’s far more inconsistent than Nas.

 

[Sinister]

ACTUALLY

Crooked constantly brags how he's really independent. Also SH was signed to Shady as a group only and haven't dropped anything since 2012.

 

[Chip Skylark]

There’s no way on Gods on Earth you can justify Eminem having a better discography than Nas. Not possible.

Nas worst is still better than Ems worst. There is no Fack or Ass Like That on Esco worst albums.

Salute...tho I'd say Jay-z incorporated the multi-syllable shyt a little more than you give him credit for, him and Nas both do/did but they don't do it so straight-forwardly all the time like Eminem/Cassidy/Dizaster/etc does, their shyt be a lot slicker and more scattered and harder to notice. To me being able to put syllables together is wild easy, even flipping the ones that aren't just at the end of the bars, all the internals and even the backwards ones (I've heard Nas do it like this madd times), but that's just me. Simple wordplay is probably on that same level, but really intricate, double/triple/quadruple entendres and making whole verses/songs a metaphor for something else and it makes perfect sense even if you didn't know it was a metaphor for something else and shyt like that gets the brain neurons firing way more, imo. Like when someone is freestyling, a really great freestyler can give you multis, but he most likely can't give you no fire wordplay, unless he's lying and it's not really a freestyle, lol. Yeah, Lupe, Los, Lux, madd other battle rappers, etc... they all can do both well, that's why I consider rappers like them the best.

, that whole style is some girl shyt. A chick will accuse you of fukking somebody else for 2 hours straight even tho you didnt, tell you you're a piece of shyt and dont have feelings, question your parenting, etc... while you be cool the whole time...then after 2 hours you bark back and talk your shyt and then she starts crying and tells you you're mean and always want to argue. Wtf? Lol. Jamar a chick

Nas worst is still better than Ems worst. There is no Fack or Ass Like That on Esco worst albums.

Illmatic is overrated. It was written is my favorite Nas album. The rest after that is He has just as many misses than Em. I would argue Relapse is better than any album after It was written.

What u seem to like is the substance of his albums. I say Nas has a very boring discography outside of it was written.

And Em definitely has more songs that hit than nas.

[Pop123]

Illmatic is overrated.

The way yall try to discredit Illmatic is hilarious. I understand the logic, it's because everyone considers it the best rap album ever, but it's still hilarious

Nas is my favorite rapper by a light year sized margin but I agree with you about his discography, it's super hit or miss.

Illmatic
IWW
Lost Tapes
Stillmatic
LIG

are all undeniable fire or classic, imo. The rest of his discography I can understand why some people would say it aint all that, considering his status as an MC, a lot of that shyt aint up to par to me musically. I'd put them 5 albums I named up against any 5 Eminem albums you pick tho, you aint winning that... And Nas's trash is way better than Eminem's trash too, lol

Stillmatic is overrated trash breh. Its like 3 or 4 songs on that shyt thats goes.

Eminems best albums are better than illmatic. And for the record I consider Nas to be better than Eminem. But his discography after his 1st 2 albums are all over the place. Again Relapse is better than any Nas album after iww.

Alright, you just buggin out now big dog, I'm out
