How do you rate Eminem as lyricist?

[SkillspayBills]

I rate him as one of the top 5...maybe top 3 GOAT. Point. Blank. Period. No debating.

I swear you only come in to threads to say something negative bro. Be a bit more positive bretheren, it works wonders.

He's genius.

In my opinion the best part of the song is the way he completely eviscerates people's double standard of him when he touches on himself in comparison to other white rappers. Like he said, other dudes like Paul Wall, Bubba Sparxx, even that new homo Machine Gun Kelly never have the fact that they're white brought up in conversation - Because they aren't threats because they suck.

Well, maybe they don't suck (I think they do), but they're not in the conversation as to who the best emcees of all time are.

But whenever you have that conversation it's only a matter of time before some (rightfully) mentions Eminem, and the first thing you hear back in response is that he's "the best white rapper".

Like, WTF? I'm talking rappers period, man. We're not racially segregating emcees here. Nobody says that sh*t about other non-black GOATs like Big Pun : "Oh, he was the best Puerto Rican rapper."

Double standards.

Em is a monster.

The thought process that goes into these songs is next level.

But sadly, 'cause he white, he'll never get the full cred. Truth.

Hes Top 5 dead or alive

[Since 1985]

Eminem is easily one the top lyricist of the modern era. He is right up there with Tupac and Jay Z imo. He is easily the best lyricist out at the moment imo.
