Eminem being a better lyricist is the reason. Half of the garbage he put out on those albums was for shock value.

And I admit most was garbage and he knew it.

But when he was on mixtapes and released underground leaks, the shyt he said was mind blowing.

Listen to those Green Lantern mixtapes.

Eminem got skills my nikka. :francis:

The same reason most people consider Jay-Z better than Nas or Drake better than Kendrick..

When you go with the "numbers don't lie" theory or get into the popularity over substance game, you gotta ride that sh1t till the wheels fall off...

Respect the game, YALL the ones that made the rules

Wayne is nowhere close to being in the GOAT conversation. Drake? :comeon:

But I agree that Eminem's catalog is :trash: for the most part.

I've said numerous times how Encore was one of the WOAT rap albums of all time.

And none of his albums have aged well. The only other person in music who was overrated so much for mediocrity was Elvis.
