Yeah, I like him a lot, too. I don't know that I'd consider him one of the best in the world, though. |

Alright, in all seriousness. Can someone tell me why Lil' Wayne is considered to be SO good? I don't listen to much rap, but all the songs from him I've heard, were really just him talking and saying words. I don't know why he is supposedly "the greatest"

Immortal Technique is good, but I can't listen to a lot of his material, because every song has some kind of political message and that just gets boring after a while. I wish he would rap more in the style he did on the song "Obnoxious"

I wish he would rap more in the style he did on the song "Obnoxious" I actually really like his song, " You Never Know." Very well-written. |

I don't know why he is supposedly "the greatest" For the simple fact his lyrics are insanely good and the way he has a flow and rhyme |

Does anyone these days realize how overated weezy is? kinda like Jack Johnson, right? ...umm anyways. Eminem only became so popular because he was white? That is probably the most ridiculous rap related comment I have ever read on this board...and I have read some pretty bad ones. Eminem is one of the greatest freestyle rappers ever and one of the best writers imo. "Yo, speed racer, 97' burgundy Blazer Wanted for burglary, had to ditch the mercury tracer I'm on some low ish, I'm fed up wit the being broke ish I'm not to joke wit Bitch, I don't sell crack, I smoke it My brains dusted; I'm disgusted at all my habits Too many asprin tablets and empty medicine cabinets Loosing battles to wack rappers 'cause I'm always too blunted Walkin' up in the cypher smokin', talkin' like, "Who want it?" Thug and crook; every drug in the book I've done it My 9's at your frame,is that your chain? Run it Who wants to die of an overdose of excessive flavor? Aggressive nature got me stickin' you for your Progressive pager Spectacular, battle rap manufacturer Stole your mom's Acura, wrecked it, then sold it back to her ( Right right right ! ! ! ) (( Ding ! ! ! )) The doctors you'll need after our battle are known as psychiatrics I'll tell the nurses to hold a bed for you, and I'ma make sure you come back for it So barricade your infants, put up some extra fences A woman beater, wanted for repeated sex offenses ( Ooh ) ..Take em' on long vacation trips Kidnappin' em' and trappin' em' in abusive relationships Mess up your face and lips Slit your stomach and watch your gut split Gut you wit that razor that I use to shave my nuts wit ((Laughter)) Mama don't you cry, your son's too far gone I'm so high, I don't even know what label I'm on I'm messed up, feelin' like an over worked plumber I'm sick of the crap, what's Dr. Kevorkian's phone number? ( Ha.. Hot ) " that was his wake up show freestyle back in the day... ..that isn't talent? So confused. |

There's no denying Eminem's talent, but if he was black he wouldn't have reached the audience he has, and he wouldn't have sold half of what he did.. he admits that himself.

Without a doubt. He admits it in "White America" that if he were black he probably would have sold half. But to say he has no talent at all? That is just ridiculous. Put the white thing aside. Listen to the lyrics. He is without a doubt in the top 10 rappers of all time in my opinion.

kinda like Jack Johnson, right? How is he over-rated? I don't think I've heard anyone say he's some sort of guitar genius. He's an average guitarist who has a very calming, "chill" style that a lot of people like. No one's proclaiming he's the best at anything... |
