Prime Canibus VS Prime Eminem

[Yagirlcheatinonus]

Now we not talking about catalogs because both artists catalogs are iffy to me but lyrically they were both on fire at one point. Who you taking?

 

[SunZoo]

Bis' flow/delivery back then for what he was trying to do was perfect, Em's wasn't great. But if we are including the ability to write actual songs in regards to lyricism Em >

Also, even though they debuted (major) and dropped albums on a somewhat similar schedule, their primes don't exactly match up. I would honestly say Em's prime would be around TES-8 Mile, by then Bis was past his.

Well thats true I was talking more so on freestyle and less on songwriting ability lets say in either years 1998-2000 if you put them face to face lyrically who wins?

Well since 100 bars tops the thread I would just take a couple joints from the albums they both had out at the time and contrast/compare.

Posse type cuts

I think by then Em was edging him out.

canibus no question

bis, his battling approach is more direct, while em is all about wordplay and comedic punchlines

besides, bis battled the likes of ll, whereas em only really battled before he got signed. by the early 2000s he was dissing mostly pop stars

 

[Anti-Anime]

Em made corny music, bis was pushing the envelope

Word was Bis thought Eminem ghostwrote "The Ripper Strikes Back". Eminem couldn't have wrote that also LL got him on 4321

Tough choice, but I've been a Stanibus longer, so I'll have to go with Bis.

He may have had a mediocre album or two, but he's never been truly lazy with the pen, ever.

Canibus, but the funny thing is, he really didn't reach his lyrical prime until 2002-2003. It took getting roasted by Em, something of a mental breakdown and a resurrection for him to really start spitting at another level.

 

[oO J Smooth Oo]

Bis in 98-2001 was possibly the illest mc ive ever heard. (Off the top of my head as i type this)

 

[KILLAKUTT7]

canibus was n still is years ahead of em

 

[Whitty Hutton]

Didn't a prime Canibus get sonned by Eminem?
That C-True Hollywood Stories ordeal was embarrising

 

[Shogun]

Em made corny music, bis was pushing the envelope

In his prime Em wasn't pushing the envelope?
