to those who think eminem is one of the greatest rappers of all time

This thread is specifically about Eminem and rap music. It didn't take long for certain users to hijack a thread about a topic they clearly know nothing about to whinge and pull out the race card. ^^^

You wont get much reasoned discussion out of him. He doesn't know much about rap, he just likes going around promoting his notion of 'the truth' and obstinately pestering anyone that doesn't concur.

lol did u purposely leave out tupac?

the fact is eminem has been rapping like 15 years more than big L yet big L still takes a dump in his mouth. have u heard his '98 freestyle?

'ask beavis i get nothing butt-head'.

eminem can't drop lines like that rofl. ur not among the GOATs unless ur dead and black, it's the sad truth

edit: srsly if u don't know what i'm talking about



1:40+, eminem needs to get on his lvl

so clearly written

Keep digging your hole. You didn't refer to anyone except white people generally:







No, I'm saying that making unfounded blanket statements of an entire race based only on their skin colour is racist, which is what you did. We both know that people of all skin colours think Eminem is the greatest - you tried to make it exclusive to white people in order for it to be offensive. It back-fired. I am now bored of repeating myself and watching you dig a deeper and deeper hole to try and desperately worm out of it (although it has been comical). Night

Your op is true. I even had a white English teacher (A level) who said he hated rap music, and didn't know any rap artists, but had Eminem's album.

I stand by my statement that only a white person would consider eminem the greatest rapper of all time

Nice deflection, confirms that you know I'm right.

Even though I've listed black rappers who think he is...

We're going in circles. What are your favourite hip-hop tracks of all time, out of interest?

You can really hear the influence of Rakim in Biterphobia more than any of his early material. It's interesting how he finds his own style so quickly; just a few years later he had already written, recorded and produced the SSLP - he didn't hang around.

Who are your favourites besides Eminem? Do you like Akala?

Only white people consider Eminem to be the greatest rapper ever

Honestly. I mean, even though I don't know much about rap, I know enough to know that white people involved in it need to have a certain level of black consciousness. It's not just a flavour, it comes with a political history and racial context that only an ignorant or racist person would deny. To name Eminem the greatest rapper is like naming President Kennedy or Bono as the most important black equality activist in post-Medieval history.

I don't know much about rap

Akala is boss, but I only know a few of his songs.

Oh do they. Well then they would probably reject the greatest rapper of all time mantle themselves.

cruel.

...So which one are you, ignorant, or racist.

Have you heard Find No Enemy? It's pretty relevant to this thread - doing away with racism comparisons:

To educate is to draw out what is within
Are we not all the same under the skin?

There is no either/or - ignorance is a prerequisite for racism. I am both informed and open-minded and look beyond discrimination.

Now please answer my question: what is the relevance of skin colour to musical superiority?

I only know shakespeare, fire in the booth (dunno if that's an actual song or a freestyle) and comedy tragedy history

To act like there is no White priviledge in music is the most ignorant thing that you could do.
