The only song that I ever felt Eminem spit hard with passion was The way I am…probably the only em song I go back and listen to every now and then
That’s probably the best one but there’s a lot of others where he was spittin with that intensity too. Til I collapse, Soldier, Kim (this is one of the most underrated rap songs ever imo, lol, shyt is a horror/psycho-thriller movie), etc… but none of them get me as pumped up and fired up as Pac on Ballad of a dead soldier tho…if that ain’t spittin hard idk what he means by spittin hard

:mjlol: Don’t say 50 is a better lyricist. Idk what it is with Pac but you nikkas are crazy. First the DMX thread now this shyt.
Alot of these nikkas don't have a foundational definition of lyricism

Their meaning is the
"segment" of lyricism they like the most

Poetry and literary devices are lyricism. Pac didn't need to have punchlines to be Lyrical

And 50 didn't even do that shyt either
:gucci:


Same argument with DMX. fukk the "lyricism" narrative. That shyt always goes nowhere

But other than a handful of songs, 50's music can't be FELT like Pac's and DMX's music can

Eminem.....only songs I've EVER felt that he made were Rock Bottom, If I Had, and Sing For The Moment. And that was prime Em. I used to be the biggest Em fan. Then I matured and learned more about music

Lyricism is way more than metaphors, rhyme schemes and big words

In terms of storytelling Pac is up there with Slick Rick. Pac wasn't an A+ lyricist. He was more of B+/A- lyricist. But he could rap though.

Pac wasn't a street gangsta. But he was certainly street breh. He wasn't fakin that.
