This era is about punchlines and wordplay two things Eminem is horrible at

eminem has an incredible flow and is funny and has crazy multiples. Those definitely CAN work in this era, but if we line up bars he would fall extremely short

Hollow is just kind of annoying to listen to, he has the Boosie effect to where you have to tune out (in hollows case) his voice constantly cracking

I don't know about that. Unlike most mainstream emcees, he has battled, and is rich and in control, he can stop everything and actually prepare. He could devote 100% to crushing whoever he battles. He has to be considered dangerous.

The problems with Em coming back would be nuthugging plus although he has wordplay and all that, will fam have cringeworthy bars? He'd need to find some SSLP/MMLP Em in him to really go in as far as aggression and wittiness.

Watching again, Daylyt treated this exactly like his B Magic battle. He still showed he could rhyme. He had bars. He just ain't really battle. I like the energy Rex had. Felt similar to what he had in the house. I ain't mad as y'all about it while acknowledging how his third is a bad look especially cuz they don't know fam. This was definitely all about the match up. His fukkery definitely gives his opponent material which is good in a way.

:dwillhuh::mjlol::lolbron::patrice::wow:

I might have to switch my vote to Hollow off that one alone :ehh:
nikkas love calling eminem lyricall beast with no recipts for that shyt. Back the late 90s/early 2000s? Hell yeah

Last decade though? Not at all. He masks his lack of bars behind crazy flows. He still he crazy multis though.

I been calling eminem average for over a decade, all he does is yell or use the weirdest voices instead of just spitting
but nikkas don't wanna hear that shyt cause his rapid-fire flow makes em go crazy

meanwhile he been mad average lyrically
after Joe's voice on the mic, imagine em's battlevoice after listening to his last album :mjlol:

His battles back then been fire, he can battle tho

Eminem would get killed in this format of battle rap

Can't be serious...have you ever watched Scribble Jam?



What format are you even talkin' about? TS or Smack or KOTD?

I really wish Em would battle just one more time...maybe Mook because Lux doesn't deserve it...Mook or Hollow

nikkas need to stop with this "so n so would get destroyed" shyt because y'all favorites are lookin' real shaky right about now
