    He is.

    Years ago he called him the Ali of rap and some of you claimed it was just because the God was signed with Dre.

    He's not anymore.

    common knowledge he's a rap savant. doesn't mean he didn't craft mostly silly songs.

    That’s a quotable? That’s what makes him a lyrical genius?

    I'm still wondering why Em won't make music with Rakim or any other rapper who respects him. Instead he follows these record labels' orders and makes pop rap. I know there's a market for that stuff, but for a person who "respects'' the artform as much he should be making tracks with guys who paved the way for him.

    Why should I value Rakim, Nas, and Jay-Z opinion about how nasty Eminem is when Lord Jamar and The Coli.com says he is trash??? Explain please

    lord jamar never said Eminem is trash.

    he says hes a great lyricist but his music is garbage.

    basically the general urban consensus on Eminem.

    From 99-03 this was true. Everything after Em has put out is :scusthov:

    This is true of almost every rapper. 5 years (if they're lucky) of prime material and then a bunch of meh or wack shyt. Of course if you're into a particular rappers style of music you give them a bit of a pass on average material, but its true of your favorite rapper too.
