Tupac is the greatest, Canibus does not suck, NYdream™ you're an idiot, and this question is being asked on a predominantly white board, so ofcourse we're going to have the sheep say "Eminem". That's like asking a white crowd, "Who invented Rock n roll?" They will all say, "Elvis", even though it's not true. Tupac is the deepest and most spiritual poet ever imo. Who do you think made rock? It was definetly Elvis. I think it goes: Eminem Tupac imo I actually consider Johnny Cash a pioneer of rock myself. But thats just me...

The lack of Tupac is mind numbing. This thread is awful. Tupac was a positive visionary who's music is actually studied and revered in colleges across the states. The man was a true poet. Saying Eminem is better than Pac is a crime. Im white and i hardly if ever listen to rap and i must say Pac was ing amazing. I unfortunately have heard alot of Eminems work and it is so juevinile and vulgar its sad.

You are right, no one can have an opinion because it is a 100% true fact that Tupac is the greatest rap lyricist ever. Go jerk off to some Carlito matches.

but if you hardly, if ever, listen to rap how would you know Eminem is trash?
You say you have listened to a lot of Eminems work and it is so juvenile and vulgar..well by all means please explain your extensive knowledge of Eminems work from Infinite to Relapse... What songs besides singles have you heard?

As much as I like Em, Tupac is the best rapping lyricists. He has so many great verses in songs, my favourite is from Running, it goes something like that. .
Still I'm having memories of high speeds when the cops crash As I laugh pushing the gas when my glocks blast We was young and we was dumb but we had heart And in the dark would we survive through the bad parts? Many dreams is what I had, and penny wishes No hesitation in extermination of these snitches Envious bitches they still continue to pursue me A couple of movies now the whole world trying to screw me Misery is all I see that's my mind state My history with the police will shake the crime rate My main man had two strikes, slipped got arrested and flipped, he screamed Thug Life and emptied the clip, got tired of running from the police.
Not to mention so many great rhymes in Dear Mama, Keep Ya Head Up, Changes, Life Goes On, etc.
I also loved the start of his first verse in changes were he says, Still I see no changes, wake up in the morning and ask myself, is life worth living should I blast myself.

why is it LOL at saying Eminem... please tell me... what is so funny about people saying Eminem...the guy who RAPED Jay-Z on that Renegade track....you know lyrically...the same Jay-Z who was "pretty damn good"....explain. Most of Eminems raps are jokes and just stupid "disses" on other famous people.

Notorious B.I.G. FTW.
Tupac is WAY over-rated.
