Eminem is top 5 of all time for me personally, but I am slightly biased as he was the first rapper I got into. Which is what quite a few white guys my age will probably relate to.

I like rap to the extent of Eminem, don't really have any favourites. Does Drake count?


Why do you like Eminem, but no other?

As there are far less threatening rappers out there. De La Soul, Tribe Called Quest, Rakim - to name a few.

So it must be because he's white.

Drake doesn't count. He's a singer. And before people start referencing Jumpman and any rap songs from Comeback Season (which is actually a solid tape). Ed Sheeran, Chris Brown and Justin Bieber all have bars, but they ain't rappers.

Eminem is not the goat.


I do listen to your Hip-Hop opinions, it's one of few things I do actually give you credibility for.

Name your top 5 please (OAT)

This reminds me of the Mike Tyson fans I know. Mainly just the Pakistani ones from Barking. They shop at River Island too.


I love your generalisations, so on point.

Do they all have the same trim? (Similar to Augero's). Also boast about how much they bang gym and how much money they make?

Also, a recruitment consultant rang me earlier, was a guy though. He sounded good looking.

Why would you need to know about the others?

After Eminem, they're just a disappointment...

Nas biggie eminem kendrick. fifth one im stuck between pac Jay Z cole and a few others like big l.

I'd put jay z fifth because hes been there for a long time.

Also drake back in the day was pretty op, he changed his style tho but him and wayne were really good.

I did think about GZA but realised I don't listen to enough outside of that one album. That one album is top 5 though.

Even listening to Wu Tang he was the one that stood out the most. Man could rhyme anything.

Listen to kendrick properly people and not just king kunta and swimming pools. Also I prefered method man to gza on the album. he always outdid him on the songs.

Andre 3000 I aint listened to enough to put him in a top 5.

Jay z has the issue that he constantly churns out crap now which ruins his legacy. eminem the same.

Lupe fiasco also has the same issue and he turned too much into an overconscious self righteous prick to put him in the top 5 even though he produced two of my favourite albums.

Also kendrick destroys ice cube lyrically.

Similar to me.

Also, what was the last song, verse or freestyle that Em banged on?

Method's the most famous, which is why people seem to jump on him the most.
