Prime Eminem vs Prime Lupe, who you got ?

[Sensitive Blake Griffin]

the cool is such an ill album

 

[Big Mel]

Eminem by a landslide. Get the 'Pe the fukk outta here.

 

[mrken12]

Lupe had some great metaphors in his first 2 albums. Plus he had songs with substance.

 

[Prince.Skeletor]

Emimen may have a bigger catalogue but he's often corny.

Some of his biggest hits is just him rapping about music

with that said he's crazy with the multis and extremely talent, definitely made from a diff cloth

But Em doesnt' have a lot of depth though

Lupe can really go in with the depth and paint pictures
Just listen to the epic 2nd verse of strange fruition and the masterpiece of a flow!

 

[MaccabeanRebel]

fukk yo'list....a prime Canibus though

 

[ManBearPig]

Lupe

 

[MoeDollaZ$]

Wiz got both them beat tho

 

[Torrential]

Lupe in his prime

 

[notorious8562]

I'd rather listen to prime Lupe.

 

[up in here]

Lupe is one of the very few who can be super ill technically and still delivery substance at the same time

 

[dubsmith_nz]

In terms of pure rapping, when Em was at his peak he was probably the GOAT. Multis, flows, delivery, presence, wordplay, storytelling, he had it all. I got Em.

 

[ROFL_GUY]

Lupe in his prime

>>>>>>>>>>>>> every lupe song ever recorded

 

[Foxmulder]

eminem easily let me shut this thread down real quick


[Verse 1]
I've created a monster, 'cause nobody wants to
see Marshall no more they want Shady I'm chopped liver
well if you want Shady, this is what I'll give ya
a little bit of weed mixed with some hard liquor
some vodka that'll jumpstart my heart quicker than a
shock when I get shocked at the hospital by the doctor when I'm not cooperating
when I'm rocking the table while he's operating (hey!)
you waited this long now stop debating 'cause I'm back,
I'm on the rag and ovulating
I know that you got a job Ms. Cheney but your husband's heart problem's complicating
So the FCC won't let me be or let me be me so let me see
they tried to shut me down on MTV but it feels so empty without me
So come on dip, bum on your lips fukk that,
cum on your lips and some on your tittts and get ready 'cause this shyt's about to get heavy
I just settled all my lawsuits fukk
YOU DEBBIE!

lyrically lupe ain't seeing eminem on his worst day in terms of rhyming man.

 

[Billy Ocean]

Both incredibly overrated, but if I had to choose I would pick Eminem.

 

[Mr. Negative]

Prime Em.

I've met only a few people that agree with me, but I got Em in his prime on MMLP and D12's Devil's Night. Just a crazy amount of straight spitting all over.

As far as metaphors and storytelling, then yeah. Lupe EASILY. As far as everything else? Not even close.
