eminem is an enigma, something of a shape shifter, a constructor of elaborately self-referential personas whose penchant for self-exploration can often take the form of snide, self-consciously juvenile lyrical play, bracingly bitter tirades or ice grilled hip-hop classicism.



when he dropped this single "Rap God" off his new album(MMLP-2) some few weeks ago, he finally confirmed his status as the modern shakespeare of hip-hop. the incisive lyricism, delivery & the technique displayed throughout hasn't been seen yet in the entire hip-hop industry. is he really the rap god?

just sit back & enjoy this.....

in Dre's voice HELL YEAH!.
some people doen there are mentioning ,lil wayne, rick ross, drake in the same vein as eminem?? ! WTF! nas, jayz, rakim, tecn9 are acceptable comparisms but drake?!! lol..he wouldnt last 5minutes in a gang war

IMO he is

Ok

An emphatic YES

" Why be a king when you can be a god "

G. O. A. T........ greatest of all time!!! #oga shift

Hell No

For me not even in the top 10. Is he better than Nas, Method Man, Raekwon, Talib Kweli and many many more? I remember his 1st major single "my name is". What a joke of a song. How da hell do you sing that and go on to be the Rap god?

The only reason he blew was the colour of his skin. I remember my former oyinbo manager saying "I dont like rap music but I like Eminem".

The dude is a legend. One of my best top 10 best rappers of all time. He takes rappers on a road trip with his fast bars and sharp lyrics that cuts through all kinda genre. He's a shape-shifter, capable of coping and blending in many genre of music.

However he's not a RAP GOD, but he's lyrical GOD and benchmark for these wack àss boring kids like 2chainz and co to learn from. On a Good day, he's as dópe as dópe could get but he's not a RAP GOD

Still got mad respect for him .. He blends comical punclines like JUST LOOSE IT, with emotional cool vibe rap that brings out the emotional part of me like BEAUTIFUL, STAN, NOW THAT I'M GONE, SORRY MAMA, SING FOR THE MOMENT, NO LOVE and co to fast raps that you have to pause and listen well to get its deep rooted meaning. One of the greatest rappers dead or alive, who's seen it all, started from the ghetto to the TOP.

Yup. Some people don't like Eminem just because of his skin colour (it helped him though but he's d0pe) and they say he's too mainstream. I see no Emcee near Eminem lyrically.
Eminem - Rapgod

pappilo: Hell No

this is racism in disguise

I will have to say he's one of the best out there, I think Bone thugs are the best. I love Eminem's comical lyrics and rhymes, the guy is just brilliant.

VECTOR IS RAP GOD

A funny thing happened on the way to my potential.

If kendrick should hear this...then you are in trouble!

Hmm....speechless...

It's a fatal mistake if you think I need to
be overseas / And take a vacation to trip
abroad


Nice play on words here. A “trip abroad” is a
journey to a foreign country. But Em doesn’t
have to go on vacation to “trip a broad” (as in
actually making a female trip and fall for him)

^^^^was it his skin color that gave him this ability??

yeah eminem,my favourite rapper

obadiah777: For caucasians who are not hip-hop heads he is

forget that shiyte..
its funny considering all the so called good rappers all hail him. listen to his lyrics without the bias you already have about his skin color. eminem is drugs

He's the greatest of all time. #rapgod

" They said I rap like a robot, so call me rapbot, But for me to rap like a computer must be in my genes, I got a laptop in my back pocket School flunky....pill junky/but look at the accolades these brung me, full of myself but still hungry..."

No
