if im looking like this and asking my legion of sexy 35-45 year old twitter gals im definitely feeling like i've won

Name names

Em stole his whole style from masta ace

you're right HUMBLE (rest in peace jimmy wopo) had drastic consequences but tyler has always held down a core graphic of suburban kids - give or take a few when he started getting into chords and s*** - that always stayed fairly level headed and respectful of rap

this is a cheap take but dj quik - trauma is a better eminems album than anything he ever did

Em brought a ton of money and attention into hip hop. The genre as a whole got more acceptance from the mainstream because of him, think about the Elton John performance at the Grammy's. He wrote a good amount of 2001 and helped maintain Dre as one of the biggest most relevant producers in hip hop. Without that we don't have Game and Kendrick. He revived 50's career after 50 got blackballed and we saw how big 50 got. Kanye even said Eminem pushed him to become a better producer when he was coming up, Jay said he's a massive fan. I understand some people may not like a white boy getting a lot of shine but you can't deny what he brought to the game

Em also spoke on a lot of social and political issues like ye gets praised for "George Bush don't care about black people" but on a lot of his songs Em was talking down on Bush and the wars

eminem was also mainlining kool keith even though he never really mentioned it
'I listen to Eminem’s lyrics sometimes, sometimes he says a lot of wild stuff,” Keith said. “It seems like he has a lot of issues with himself, a lot of stuff more family stuff and personal but the other stuff…'
from keith is probably the kindest yet deadly thing u could say in response to a hiphopdx nerd asking you about him

all stated that heavily Em influenced their music

that's just rappers too

and Masta ace? really? lmao b we get it you really don't like Eminem

I don’t hear em’s influence in any of their music

you just completely invalidated your opinion. out

We still care about what Benzino has to say?

I mean he made benzino famous for one

what????

Without Em you're taking out Watcher, Forgot About Dre, What's the Difference, Bang Bang, and Let's Get High. so 20% of the album and 2 of the top 3 or 4 songs off it.

And you're saying Up In Smoke would've been as big if you took off a headliner that sold 6 million albums in the past year and won Grammys?

Benzino been washed

There’s other writers credited on those songs you know ? Apart from forgot about Dre a lot of that don’t sound like his pen

are you like a baby in childcare who needs things fed to them or did you spend the entirety of the 80s and 90s or your consideration of that time just thinking 'wooo this party music rocks'

Snoop said the same s*** tho he not the only one who think that

And yes everything Snoop did >>> everything Em did but we could save that for another day

Im not even defendin Benzino no more
just Em hate in general

yeah i'm a baby in childcare

Doggystyle is arguably the best hip hop album of all time
