So how is Em considered one of the best lyricist of All Time...

[the cac mamba]

lets be honest, a lotta punchlines are forced trash too i dont need them to define a rapper

i mean theres the legends, L finesse, banks, cassidy, fab, etc but i would never say punchlines are necessary to be a lyricist

 

[Donald Trumps Twitter]

fukk up already


Nobody says Eminem the best lyricist anymore. His time ran out

 

[Renegade47]

punchlines are overrated as shyt

 

[be back in a bit]

"i'll stab you with the sharpest knife I can grab, come back the next week and re-open your scab."

He's said some good stuff.

Either way who cares, the GOAT lyricists aren't about punchlines anyways. Nas doesn't even use em really.

Sage Francis is a better lyricist.

[Amestafuu (Emeritus)]

Corny

Only c00ns and cacs consider that cornball great pure weirdo rap bars like " I'm rapping with swollen bowling ball in my bag you need a faq to come tear a new hole in my ass." Rapping about killing and raping his mom and baby mom.

He was backed by Dre
He is HipHops Elvis (almost went out just like Elvis as well )
He deservingly is perhaps one of the most wittiest MC's to ever come into the game
He created his own style/lane that up till that time no one had heard before(on that level at least)
White people lloooooooooove him.
