You've deflected from Eminem to Common, then DMX, now the ol and trusty "you stuck in the past" shtick. All in response to the fact that Em's discog is
I've just been pointing out how sloppy your examples are. You're picking 'weak' targets in your mind (respected rappers but not obvious top 5) and trying to compare Em's shortcomings to their shortcomings. Without realizing that you have little-to-no idea what you're talking about.
"Party Up" and "Ruff Ryders Anthem" STILL get played, breh. Obviously not in a 'modern turn-up set', but if any DJ is playing anything between 98 - 2008, you're gonna hear X at some point. If you're at a lounge or something less 'clubby', you'll hear some Common.
You'll never hear Em in either setting and those are the years he was supposedly dropping all these "classics."
1. Its half classic and half shytty a point I already made.
2. We are talking about rappers, Em is a rapper...as is Common...as is X...as is all the people we are talking about.
3. You talking about 98-08 that's ten years. As if the following years don't exist, again, existing in a time vacuum. In addition if you refer to my post you will see that i had already made the distinction between a club/lounge.
4. You are still coming from a myopic scope and context that all of hip-hop and rap must exist in the club/party atmosphere and it simply doesn't. That concept is woefully basic.

Illmatic is arguably the best rap album of all time and the most party tracks are either "Halftime" or "It Ain't Hard To Tell" both of which aren't in anyone's party rotation and haven't been since the 90''s
