@@MrStaano one of Eminems biggest haters🤣 watching a video where the topic is Eminem just to shit on him... for someone who doesn't like Em you sure do listen to him a lot🤦🏾♂️🤣
Everyone has a there top 10 but there is only THE top 10. And it’s- 10. Ice Cube 9. Big Pun 8. Notorious B.I.G 7. GZA and Inspectah Deck 6. Andre 3000 5. Tupac 4. Nas 3. Rakim 2. Lupe Fiasco 1. Eminem
Eminem has collabed with Nas, Jay-Z, Lil Wayne (twice), Busta Rhymes, Biggie, Tech N9ne, and not a single one of them “touched him” and avoided being outshined. Busta came close on “Calm Down,” but Em left Earth. People want to put certain rappers ahead of him that he got the best of when going head-to-head + outsold + has more accolades than, and it’s all because of his skin-color. I say that as a black man.
Biggie don’t count he was dead and em music not as good anymore lyrically he can rap but sonically I don’t care for it now this last album I like but for ten years that shit was on mute no important subject matter just a bunch of bars and rapping fast that shit got old after recovery
@haezeushawkins436 😂😂It means he's too good at it ,better than your favorite rapper. RAP is Rythm(Rhyming) and Poetry(Wordplay ,Punchlines etc) Eminem does excatly that and is better than the Top 5 Rappers at it. People listen more to the Travis Scotts, Drakes, NBA Young Boy, Juiceworld etc I hear no one bumping Nas ,Jay Z sometimes, My Goat Pac is played more than those 2 but also not like How they play Drake or Travis. Music is subjective, you got people who don't like rap tune in because of Eminems insane lyrically ability, even though they still don't like Rap. That argument is abused when it comes to Em but not other rappers 😂😂Nas continues to release but nobody listens to him ,Jay has been ghosting. I'm attacking these 2 most because they're brought in the argument to downplay the White Boy.
Busta Is one of my favorite of all time and he once said eminem is the goat. Lil Wayne basically went bar for bar with Eminem imo. He called Em a monster lol
@@haezeushawkins436 your crazy em still be dropping gems. Em really only missed once and that was with revival. Em put out one bad album and run y'all mouths like he wouldn't put belt to ass with y'all favorite rappers.
@@haezeushawkins436 literally almost every em album has had crazy substance and story driven records on them y'all just be sleep. Relapse was a conceptual album so was music to be murdered by. Relapse was like a horror movie in music format it was genius. To say em just be rapping is the craziest misconception I've ever heard.
Agree with his first statement 110% Eminem is easy one of the greatest ever. I have ppl in my top 5 I prefer to listen to than him but Eminem is better lyrically and that's what makes them a great or should be lyrical ability, otherwise their just singers.
there are definitely 10 better lyricist if thats your criteria p. the fact that he as to be in the top 10 even is a reach . people overrate by default of there not being many white rappers
I think Eminem is great, and very good lyrically, but being lyrically astute isn't the only thing. Content wise Eminem could be a lot better. Lyrically, Aesop Rock is a touch better than Eminem too. And then other white rappers such R.A. the Rugged Man, El-P and Tom Scott(of kiwi rap groups Home Brew, @Peace, Average Rap Band and Avantdale Bowling Club) all have more earthy content that shows that they're aware of their place in hip hop and is more palatable to POC. And I'm saying this as a white guy, and a fan of Eminem and hip hop period.
Aries did bring an important point that many people fail to think about, which is Eminem doesn't have to be your "favorite" rapper, for him to be in the top 5 or top 10 conversation.
Still hip hop culture as in blk people don't put him there. You non-black people put him in that spot and your opinions don't have credibility in a culture that is not yours. Hence" Not like us" being the cultural hit
There’s rappers you can respect their craft and abilities and not love them, I don’t love nas like that as I’m a jay z fan but I know he’s a top 10 cause I have ears and can break down the words and hear the flow
This. The fact people to make exceptions and qualifiers to include Eminem in the top 10 shows that he may not belong in it. Eminem is arguably the best with pure wordplay, if we ignore what is actually being said with the words but just focus on how words are rhymed, schemed, manipulated etc. But there are other rappers that are elite at that, but will be listened to by people who won't care for Eminem's music. I use metaphors like sports and TV shows for Eminem- he's like Game Of Thrones and Friends. But the culture likes The Wire, Martin, Fresh Prince...
Theres a difference between your top ten and an undeniable, unquestionable, factual top 10. In this hypothesis. Everyones opinion on who they listen to and who the dopest is is completely different. I dont listen to Nas all the time besides his old stuff n hes top 3 to me, n ive seen him live n hes incredible.
When I used to be a gangbanger in High school back in early 2000s, I used to argue with my bros about Eminem. I used to play Slimshady LP and they’d clown me😂

@@davruck1 benzino really mgk are u kidding me? Dr umar who hasn't build the school that he promised and lord Jamar that's known for just hating Eminem?
Im not a stan, but dude he pretty much cemented himself as the best. Its undeniable at this point, 25+ years in the game, he adapted to new era's, wordplay is insane, puts on upcoming talent, pays homage to people before him, yeah you might not like the content in the music and the subject matter in the albums but hes telling his life and his talent with words is a master class act, hes had like 10 magnum opuses. Also he obviously doesnt do it for the money, he genuinely loves this game and everything about it and its all he has in life. He put his entire soul into his body of work.
I think what’s make Eminem great is not only the ability to be super lyrical but also the talent to write good songs that the world could relate too. He was unapologetic in telling his life story no filters at all, you could be super lyrical and get stuck in the underground scene as the dopest and never get out of there, the perfect example is Canibus. Eminem is the greatest lyrical Artist that hip hop has ever seen, give this man his flowers.
In terms of raw talent and skill, Em is absolutely a Top 10 emcee. He’s also an excellent and prolific producer. But when it comes to the last 20 years on the mic, his sole truly solid album was Recovery. He’s had legitimately embarrassing albums bc the bar was set so high and the shock value shtick/pop culture references had played out. He still has 3 undeniable classics (SSLP, MMLP, TES) which may all be masterpieces, plus a few of the greatest guest features of all time - Renegade (he didn’t body HOV imo but he killed those verses) , What’s the Difference?, Forgot About Dre) - and some legendary beats including Renegade. Plus the 8 Mile Soundtrack was dope as was D12’s Devil’s Night. He’s also had a hand in preserving and expanding 2Pac’s legacy so props to him for that.
I guess they said "fuck it" with the 'Black Russian Podcast' after they realized it was just the same thing as their interviews, except Vlad was now on camera. Podcasts are usually weekly episodes, not once in a while like the normal interviews. Also, it should be two co-hosts going back and forth, not Vlad asking the questions and Aries responding like the typical interview. They really didn't change anything.
Temporary. Somebody save me. Guilty conscience 2. I am black black. Im bumping these 3 songs everyday. Eminem is a genuis that album is thriller every song is a hit.
@@AllLifeHacks007 Hes popular cause hes dope asf thats why, theres alot of dead rappers that are already forgotten that will never b on Pacs level prove me wrong
Most people are emotionally attached to their favorite rapper. Most of those people do not know how to critique actual bars and how to determine their value individually. The average person today is not intelligent enough to understand the art that has always existed and elevated in rapping. Cassidy would always say "they don't known the science" 😂😂
Nobody ever had to try n force Pac, Spice 1, Ugk, 8ball n mjg, ect on me. Where alot of us on here come from we like shyt we can relate to. Eminem got hella lyrics but I don't listen to nun of that in the house or ridin round in the car simply cuz I cnt relate to it like that so for me it'll never be a complete package
and that's what I'm trying to tell ppl nobody's hating on eminem it's just that majority of ppl don't relate to his music as soon as black man says he doesn't like eminem they are saying because he is white but the fact of the matter is eminem songs it's not about social issues or what's really happening to black ppl worldwide I want somebody to tell me what song he sang educating non black ppl about black history or the hood isn't that what rap was about back then
Em is definitely top 10. A lot of stuff he says goes over my head but u can’t deny his skill and that’s what it’s all about RAP ABILITY. And all due respect to Aries, Jayz not touching Eminem.
@@SuperKillerdog Jay z may of had a bigger impact in New York or other parts of the us but as far as globally Eminem brought so many more fans to the genre from all over the world. also impact shouldn't be the be all end all its about who can rap better and Jay z cannot rap with Eminem he couldn't way back in 2001 and he definitely can't now
“can’t even touch” doesn’t mean a perfectly even match, it just means close enough lol but one thing Jay has is a voice that isn’t annoying, flow that hasn’t been obnoxiously staccato for the past 15 years, and subject matter that isn’t weird as hell
@@justinbryant6031 That's cap! Jay-z's vol 2 album went 5x Platinum in 98, before Eminem became mainstream. Hip Hop was already world wide before Eminem. Biggie & Pac's album went 10x platinum in 97 before Eminem came on the scene. I respect Eminem but you stans that don't know hip hop just say anything. Jay Z was already worldwide famous before Eminem in 99. Do your research. He did not rap better than Jay Z on renegade, Nas said that as part of a diss record! he definitely wasn't serious.
Em always pays homage to all these rappers that are said, “Can touch him.” That’s another reason what contributes to his greatest, he has genuine respect and admiration for the greats before him. His lyrical ability has only gotten better as the years passed. 👊🏽
All of the people he named except Biggie has said Eminem is the best lyricist that they have ever heard. I'm black and old enough to back when Hip Hop started and Eminem is the best lyricist I've ever heard and I'll argue that til I'm outta breath
Out of the many many many conversations about eminem no one has ever once brought up how musical he gets with syllables and that's what the difference is
1.Em is the most talked about rapper in the last two decades. 2.Has sold more albums than any other rapper in Hip Hop history. 3.He's the most listened to rapper on every continent excluding Antarctica. No other rapper has these accolades. That's not Top 5, that's the GOAT status!
Eminem has technical ability. But for many people it comes down to Content, why he’s not in their Tops. It’s not necessarily insanity, or hate, or militance. It’s preference. Black Thought or Pharoahe Monch can rhyme technically perfect, plus content. But, then people will say he doesn’t have the accolades or stats. AZ too, and he inspired Eminem style early on. It depends on what your metrics are.
When I heard Em's verse on psychopath killer I flipped out. That was mind boggling. I know he has a lot of other songs with insane verses that are great too like Best Friend. It's like you need a phd in english to be able to understand some of his bars Truly a legend
EMINEM has had impact on Hip-hop Culture at all. He makes words rhyme thats it! His words dont mean anything and has had a tremendous amount of help being that he is white. He has white fans that know nothing about Hip-hop at all and dont even necessarily like black people but they only listen to Eminem's music. Now, Eminem is definitely talented and I did a list today where he's in my top 20, actually the 11th best Rapper Of All Time. 1. Tupac (Everybody knows It's Not Even Close #1) 2. Nas 3. Lil Wayne 4. Kendrick 5. Jay Z 6. Biggie 7. Rakim 8. Andre 3000 9. J Cole 10. Drake 11. Eminem 12. DMX 13. T.I. 14. Kanye 15. Jadakiss 16. Big Pun 17. Ice Cube 18. Big Daddy Kane 19. Scarface 20. Big L 21. Rick Ross 22. Snoop Dogg 23. Missy Elliott 24. Lauryn Hill 26. Lil Kim 27. Nicki Minaj 28. Tech N9ne 29. Krs One 30. Method Man 31. Red Man 32. Q-Tip 33. Black Thought 34. Pusha T 35.

I'm not American, but I understand American culture and history. I've studied it since I've been a child. I'm also the child of immigrants myself in my country and I understand the struggle of being ''a minority.'' Having said that, I never agreed with the way a portion of people speak about Eminem. They act like Eminem is ''just for white people.'' Meanwhile his music has spoken to a worldwide audience of a very diverse background. White people, brown people, black people all over the world listen to his music. Meanwhile the discussion gets reduced to ''nobody in the hood listens to Eminem.'' Bro, ''the hood'' is barely 1% of the world. So a rapper only matters if specific hoods in the states listen to an artist? What kind of nonsense is that. I feel like the people that keep saying these things need to realize that hiphop has evolved. Its not ''theirs'' anymore. It has become a worldwide genre. You can't gatekeep it as something from the hood. Thats like trying to gatekeep classical music to a handful of European orchestras. Nowadays you have orchestras and theatres worldwide. People need to accept that rap's origins were in African-American neighborhoods, but that its now worldwide. You can also have a German come up in the rap scene one day outrapping everyone. Thats what happens when your genre grows.

Eminem is number one lyricist for me, but rap is not just that, anyway my top ten is: 1- Eminem 2- Tupac 3- Kendrick 4- Big 5- Nas 6- Drake 7- Wayne 8- Jay 9- 50 Cent 10- Snoop It’s about my taste
I love how I hear, black dudes don't bump Em. Man, nearly every reaction video is a black person. Em transcends color anyway. Good for him. Love him or hate him....25 years is sealed. The dudes dope.
they did a reaction vid on Em cause they themselves are trying to also get views you do a reaction video to a top selling artist you typically are going to get more views.
I’ve been listening to Eminem since infinite. I was in high school when the slim shady LP and Marshall Mathers LP dropped and remember vibing to it. It spoke to us as HS students. I remember listening to his word play in crack a bottle and was seriously blown away by his ability to make words sound like nursery rhymes or the way he dissed Mariah or Canibus. I used to dance to crack a bottle at clubs in Tokyo. I analyzed the hell out of his lyrical wordplay and outside of Kamikaze album, I’m not feeling him anymore. His content is repetitive and not speaking anything new. Maybe im too mesmerized by his old content and the timing of it in my life. The timing of it now just doesn’t flow as well. I’m not saying his wack but his music just doesn’t speak to me like the way it does. The song “beautiful” legit got me thru hard times and sing for the moment propelled me to where I am in my personal life and career.
Talking about his substance abuse, talking about the loss of his loved ones, talking about politics of the bush administration, talking about the hypocrisy of white people and free speech. Just say you don’t listen to him like that before making ill informed comments
Not saying R.A. is better to Em, but Vlad has interviewed R.A. a few times and couldn't name him. R.A. is at the very least a close second white rapper. But yeah, the gap between 2 and 3 is pretty large.
Took me a while to figure out why they don’t admit em is dope. It’s all about content but if you’re real, his skills are insane and there’s only a few in history who can join him. Sales or no sales vs em.
Sometimes Em would say something & his stans would go "ohhh shit did you catch that part" & I be like "nah ninja & stop rewinding the sht to catch every little Bar"
Eminem definitely top 10. I don't care what nobody says. Nobody puts words together like him. Dude can even make several words rhyme together that don't rhyme at all... tie syllables together like nobody. All while using metaphors, punchlines and changing up the flows throughout. He may not make the best "songs" but when it comes to rappin he's an elite wordsmith... It is what it is...
Also people gotta understand Biggie had 2 classis albums historical plus not only that he wrote the whole Junior Mafia album and he wrote 90 percent or more of Lil Kim album HardCore and that was a classic how do u have 2 classic albums and then write bars on other albums for your friends to rap them
3:24 I absolutely disagree you have Necro, Ill Bill, Mr Hyde, Everlast, Goretex, Danny Boy, Slaine and Vinnie Paz who I personally like better not only for there talent but for there consistency. I’m sure there white emcees who are dope who I haven’t mentioned or slipped my mind.
i love that tenacity Larry Bird had!!! I've played competitive sports all my life and I'm the same way you better put your best against me and believe I'll be coming for your best without a doubt
These people are trying to force people, to accept Eminem as the best rapper like rap was garbage until he came along, they're doing the same thing with Caitlin Clark, she hasn't won anything.
Yall must have been born yesterday. No one forcing people to say he the best Eminem. Just because people respect his Art, don't mean they forcing it. The Clark comparison is just dumb. No one ever said Em Was the Goat back in 99, 00, 01 etc... Like come on. The dude is just nice. He don't have to be your favorite but if you a fan of actual Rap, no way you say he not one of the best.
I still got Nas, AZ and Rakim ahead of Em with ease but that's just me and I'm a white boy from NYC that grew up in the Park Hill projects when WU started
I hate when people talk about Em's sales like it means something. Em can make an ASMR fart album and it's guaranteed to be top 3 selling rap albums of the year. Em's an exceptional rapper but we all know why his sale are what they are. Same reason 50 Cent explained why white movies are shipped to 3200 theatres while black movies are only shipped to 1600.
I am from Dagestan, I just wanna say, get over it. Em is a last of those generation of superstars on the level of MJ and the beatles. So yeah, he’s always gonna sell the most records. It’s been that way since the eminem show. He appeals to all cultures on a global level.
When Vlad asked Aries what lyrics can he rap of his favorite artist we spit the same verse at the same time! Niggas bleed just like us-Biggie. That was dope!💪🏾
Eminem missed that ''cool' element that is a part of a being a rapper, but on the technical front he checks literally every box, flow cadences, rhyme patterns, schemes, punchlines, simalies, metaphors, double/triple entendres, its just that lack of cool causing him to not resonate with a lot of us black dudes, they would much rather listen to Jack Harlow, who is clearly not as technical but he sounds like rapper, not just the topics, its just a feel, even conscious rappers like Common have some type of ''cool"
@@CinematicTactics yea you lost me at jack Harlow lol how does em not sound like a rapper when he's literally a rappers rapper lmao some point of you ppl just be saying shit atp to discredit em
If there's any WB Hip-Hop artist the black, brown, or any other minority in the Hip-Hop community respected & cool with. It was "Mac Miller" who unfortunately isn't here with us anymore on earth. There's also a good reason behind why they'd choose Mac. No matter if you didn't dig Mac's music or not. You'd be hard pressed to deny that Mac was as cool as they come & put out nothing but positive energy vibes to almost everyone he met & talked too. Just keeping it a buck here! ✌️😉.
Clearly a lot of yous don't know about 99-05 Em, the guy was the fucking tornado,hurricane and freaking earthquake of the whole rap game, from cool to the way he was dressing, rhymes to beats him and 50 were crushing everyone then after he simply matured that's why he ended up not resonate with anyone anymore people grow up and change so obviously not gonna tap in very close with younger generations, I think he should have retired 4 years ago I mean he can still produce and that's more than enough.
I was born in the 80s, Em is not in my top 20 all time. He's not even my fav white rapper. He do sale alot of albums and he is skilled, but me and none of my people ever said "yo put dat Em on"
@@Dezzyyx no BS narrative...you got that wrong and if you have then you talking about mainstream through "hip hop history" cuz anyone who's listened to enough rappers OVERALL knows in their right mind Eminem is NOT top 10 let's cut the BS
He is defently top 10 alltime for me it isnt about sales or anything 1.Notorious B.I.G 2.Nas 3.Jay Z 4.2pac 5.Eminem 6.Big Pun 7.Big L 8.Jadakiss 9.Redman 10.Prodigy Btw love how Aries gives Biggie his props in every interview for me is the nicest MC ever dude sounded like God created him to rap.
Eminem is so dope that he puts food on other artist's table by simply expanding hip hop in general. Not to mention that lyrically Eminem is a beast that has been endorsed by the best known lyricist ever such as Rakim, KGR, Kiss, etc...he's top 10 even if he's not on people's top 10...think about it
Eminem does things with the craft of rap that not many rappers can do, for example, just listen to his verse on All I Think About... Listen to Relapse. The lyrical gymnastics of it all. The way hes bending words, the way he's rhyming sounds, the sharpness of his flow switches and delivery... Theres just no comparison, white or black. Theres no debating that Eminem one thousand percent qualifies, even as the number 1 RAPPER of all time. If you deny that then your reason is obviously because of his race. So yes, Eminem automatically stands out because of his race, but make no mistake, it's the raw skill that elevates him in the conversation.
lyrical dexterity is cool for battle rap but we still have to feel the shit hes saying like wit 2pac . 2pac didn't have to do all of that stuff but had so much substance and real lyrical content in is songs
Although I didn't care for the slim shady LP when I heard my name is I thought it was so cringe and when I seen dre in the video I was like damn maybe dr dre did fall off. I became a fan with the Marshall Mathers LP not my favorite but it showed me dude can actually spit, then the Eminem show was classic. I bought everything from obie trice to d12 albums but as I got older I start to realize to me just my opinion Eminem is not a great song writer. Lyricist? Yes! But I out grew the subject matter. Eminem is a dog on the mic but so is a lot of rappers who are actually good song writers. That don't get the push or benefit of the doubt that Eminem gets from beefing with a Brittany Spears to dissing your own mom on a track are things no other artist could get away with and be taken seriously. It's not because he's white I say this again I'm a fan but the pedestal ppl put em on is to much sometimes. They're artist out there that push the culture forward that actually added something to the game that's still used today.
Swear on everything..summer 2002, family was driving back from the beach. We were in rural SC, and we were all pretty damn hungry, weren’t seeing much, Dad saw a waffle house sign off the exit, “alright, we’re stopping here.” We pull up, probably 8:30am, and there are a gang of bloods in the parking lot. Idk somewhere between 10-20 dudes in the parking lot across a few cars. Moms isn’t having it lol, Dad plays it cool, “it’s fine, just walk by and let’s go eat, we’re fine.” We get out the car, and Eminem’s new album, The Eminem show is playing loudly from one of the cars. We walk in, Dad looks at me, “bet you didn’t expect to hear them playing Eminem” 😂😂😂
IMO Ren from the UK is in Eminem ball park of skill but is still young. For an unsigned artist he is insane. Him and Ez Mil give me hope for the future of hip hop.

Eminem has collabed with Nas, Jay-Z, Lil Wayne (twice), Busta Rhymes, Biggie, Tech N9ne, and not a single one of them “touched him” and avoided being outshined. Busta came close on “Calm Down,” but Em left Earth. People want to put certain rappers ahead of him that he got the best of when going head-to-head + outsold + has more accolades than, and it’s all because of his skin-color. I say that as a black man.
Biggie don’t count he was dead and em music not as good anymore lyrically he can rap but sonically I don’t care for it now this last album I like but for ten years that shit was on mute no important subject matter just a bunch of bars and rapping fast that shit got old after recovery
@haezeushawkins436 😂😂It means he's too good at it ,better than your favorite rapper. RAP is Rythm(Rhyming) and Poetry(Wordplay ,Punchlines etc) Eminem does excatly that and is better than the Top 5 Rappers at it. People listen more to the Travis Scotts, Drakes, NBA Young Boy, Juiceworld etc I hear no one bumping Nas ,Jay Z sometimes, My Goat Pac is played more than those 2 but also not like How they play Drake or Travis. Music is subjective, you got people who don't like rap tune in because of Eminems insane lyrically ability, even though they still don't like Rap. That argument is abused when it comes to Em but not other rappers 😂😂Nas continues to release but nobody listens to him ,Jay has been ghosting. I'm attacking these 2 most because they're brought in the argument to downplay the White Boy.
Busta Is one of my favorite of all time and he once said eminem is the goat. Lil Wayne basically went bar for bar with Eminem imo. He called Em a monster lol
@@haezeushawkins436 your crazy em still be dropping gems. Em really only missed once and that was with revival. Em put out one bad album and run y'all mouths like he wouldn't put belt to ass with y'all favorite rappers.

"The funny thing is that through all the excitement, they Range got towed: double parked by a hydrant".
Agree with his first statement 110% Eminem is easy one of the greatest ever. I have ppl in my top 5 I prefer to listen to than him but Eminem is better lyrically and that's what makes them a great or should be lyrical ability, otherwise their just singers.
And this is why we don’t take your opinion serious
there are definitely 10 better lyricist if thats your criteria p. the fact that he as to be in the top 10 even is a reach . people overrate by default of there not being many white rappers
@@davruck1and that is why you’ll always be fighting an uphill battle in which you and people like you will never win 💯
I think Eminem is great, and very good lyrically, but being lyrically astute isn't the only thing. Content wise Eminem could be a lot better. Lyrically, Aesop Rock is a touch better than Eminem too. And then other white rappers such R.A. the Rugged Man, El-P and Tom Scott(of kiwi rap groups Home Brew, @Peace, Average Rap Band and Avantdale Bowling Club) all have more earthy content that shows that they're aware of their place in hip hop and is more palatable to POC. And I'm saying this as a white guy, and a fan of Eminem and hip hop period.
Aries did bring an important point that many people fail to think about, which is Eminem doesn't have to be your "favorite" rapper, for him to be in the top 5 or top 10 conversation.
Still hip hop culture as in blk people don't put him there. You non-black people put him in that spot and your opinions don't have credibility in a culture that is not yours. Hence" Not like us" being the cultural hit
How can I put someone in my top ten if i don’t even listen to them 😂
There’s rappers you can respect their craft and abilities and not love them, I don’t love nas like that as I’m a jay z fan but I know he’s a top 10 cause I have ears and can break down the words and hear the flow
Actually I think you’ll find most people have one or 2 people in their top 10s that they respect but don’t necessarily listen too
I didn't like watching Tim Duncan play, I found him boring. But I still put him in the top 10 cause I respect his talent and championship mindset
This.
The fact people to make exceptions and qualifiers to include Eminem in the top 10 shows that he may not belong in it. Eminem is arguably the best with pure wordplay, if we ignore what is actually being said with the words but just focus on how words are rhymed, schemed, manipulated etc.
But there are other rappers that are elite at that, but will be listened to by people who won't care for Eminem's music.
I use metaphors like sports and TV shows for Eminem- he's like Game Of Thrones and Friends. But the culture likes The Wire, Martin, Fresh Prince...
Theres a difference between your top ten and an undeniable, unquestionable, factual top 10. In this hypothesis. Everyones opinion on who they listen to and who the dopest is is completely different. I dont listen to Nas all the time besides his old stuff n hes top 3 to me, n ive seen him live n hes incredible.
When I used to be a gangbanger in High school back in early 2000s, I used to argue with my bros about Eminem. I used to play Slimshady LP and they’d clown me😂

@@davruck1 benzino really mgk are u kidding me? Dr umar who hasn't build the school that he promised and lord Jamar that's known for just hating Eminem?
Im not a stan, but dude he pretty much cemented himself as the best. Its undeniable at this point, 25+ years in the game, he adapted to new era's, wordplay is insane, puts on upcoming talent, pays homage to people before him, yeah you might not like the content in the music and the subject matter in the albums but hes telling his life and his talent with words is a master class act, hes had like 10 magnum opuses. Also he obviously doesnt do it for the money, he genuinely loves this game and everything about it and its all he has in life. He put his entire soul into his body of work.
I think what’s make Eminem great is not only the ability to be super lyrical but also the talent to write good songs that the world could relate too.
He was unapologetic in telling his life story no filters at all, you could be super lyrical and get stuck in the underground scene as the dopest and never get out of there, the perfect example is Canibus.
Eminem is the greatest lyrical Artist that hip hop has ever seen, give this man his flowers.
In terms of raw talent and skill, Em is absolutely a Top 10 emcee. He’s also an excellent and prolific producer. But when it comes to the last 20 years on the mic, his sole truly solid album was Recovery. He’s had legitimately embarrassing albums bc the bar was set so high and the shock value shtick/pop culture references had played out.
He still has 3 undeniable classics (SSLP, MMLP, TES) which may all be masterpieces, plus a few of the greatest guest features of all time - Renegade (he didn’t body HOV imo but he killed those verses) , What’s the Difference?, Forgot About Dre) - and some legendary beats including Renegade. Plus the 8 Mile Soundtrack was dope as was D12’s Devil’s Night. He’s also had a hand in preserving and expanding 2Pac’s legacy so props to him for that.

You CANNOT deny Eminem’s lyrical skill
Em is definitely top 10. A lot of stuff he says goes over my head but u can’t deny his skill and that’s what it’s all about RAP ABILITY.
And all due respect to Aries, Jayz not touching Eminem.
He is and Jay Z has a bigger impact on hip hop than Eminem! Record sales don’t mean much.
@@SuperKillerdog Jay z may of had a bigger impact in New York or other parts of the us but as far as globally Eminem brought so many more fans to the genre from all over the world. also impact shouldn't be the be all end all its about who can rap better and Jay z cannot rap with Eminem he couldn't way back in 2001 and he definitely can't now
“can’t even touch” doesn’t mean a perfectly even match, it just means close enough lol but one thing Jay has is a voice that isn’t annoying, flow that hasn’t been obnoxiously staccato for the past 15 years, and subject matter that isn’t weird as hell
@@justinbryant6031 That's cap! Jay-z's vol 2 album went 5x Platinum in 98, before Eminem became mainstream. Hip Hop was already world wide before Eminem. Biggie & Pac's album went 10x platinum in 97 before Eminem came on the scene. I respect Eminem but you stans that don't know hip hop just say anything. Jay Z was already worldwide famous before Eminem in 99. Do your research. He did not rap better than Jay Z on renegade, Nas said that as part of a diss record! he definitely wasn't serious.
@SuperKillerdog Jay is extremely overrated. He has 1 album since 2013.
Em always pays homage to all these rappers that are said, “Can touch him.” That’s another reason what contributes to his greatest, he has genuine respect and admiration for the greats before him. His lyrical ability has only gotten better as the years passed. 👊🏽
I agree with Arie.
All of the people he named except Biggie has said Eminem is the best lyricist that they have ever heard.
I'm black and old enough to back when Hip Hop started and Eminem is the best lyricist I've ever heard and I'll argue that til I'm outta breath

Out of the many many many conversations about eminem no one has ever once brought up how musical he gets with syllables and that's what the difference is
1.Em is the most talked about rapper in the last two decades.
2.Has sold more albums than any other rapper in Hip Hop history.
3.He's the most listened to rapper on every continent excluding Antarctica.
No other rapper has these accolades. That's not Top 5, that's the GOAT status!

His latest album is hella cringeworthy though.
@@Doer231 That's your opinion and you're entitled to it.🤷♂️👍
And thats because of his complexion.
Eminem has technical ability. But for many people it comes down to Content, why he’s not in their Tops. It’s not necessarily insanity, or hate, or militance. It’s preference. Black Thought or Pharoahe Monch can rhyme technically perfect, plus content. But, then people will say he doesn’t have the accolades or stats. AZ too, and he inspired Eminem style early on. It depends on what your metrics are.
The people of Metro Detroit will always be proud of what Marshall and Paul have built.
When I heard Em's verse on psychopath killer I flipped out. That was mind boggling. I know he has a lot of other songs with insane verses that are great too like Best Friend. It's like you need a phd in english to be able to understand some of his bars Truly a legend
EMINEM has had impact on Hip-hop Culture at all. He makes words rhyme thats it! His words dont mean anything and has had a tremendous amount of help being that he is white. He has white fans that know nothing about Hip-hop at all and dont even necessarily like black people but they only listen to Eminem's music. Now, Eminem is definitely talented and I did a list today where he's in my top 20, actually the 11th best Rapper Of All Time.

@@patrickoleary2247 don't be upset
I'm not American, but I understand American culture and history. I've studied it since I've been a child. I'm also the child of immigrants myself in my country and I understand the struggle of being ''a minority.'' Having said that, I never agreed with the way a portion of people speak about Eminem. They act like Eminem is ''just for white people.'' Meanwhile his music has spoken to a worldwide audience of a very diverse background. White people, brown people, black people all over the world listen to his music. Meanwhile the discussion gets reduced to ''nobody in the hood listens to Eminem.'' Bro, ''the hood'' is barely 1% of the world. So a rapper only matters if specific hoods in the states listen to an artist? What kind of nonsense is that.
I feel like the people that keep saying these things need to realize that hiphop has evolved. Its not ''theirs'' anymore. It has become a worldwide genre. You can't gatekeep it as something from the hood. Thats like trying to gatekeep classical music to a handful of European orchestras. Nowadays you have orchestras and theatres worldwide. People need to accept that rap's origins were in African-American neighborhoods, but that its now worldwide. You can also have a German come up in the rap scene one day outrapping everyone. Thats what happens when your genre grows.

I’ve been listening to Eminem since infinite. I was in high school when the slim shady LP and Marshall Mathers LP dropped and remember vibing to it. It spoke to us as HS students. I remember listening to his word play in crack a bottle and was seriously blown away by his ability to make words sound like nursery rhymes or the way he dissed Mariah or Canibus. I used to dance to crack a bottle at clubs in Tokyo. I analyzed the hell out of his lyrical wordplay and outside of Kamikaze album, I’m not feeling him anymore. His content is repetitive and not speaking anything new. Maybe im too mesmerized by his old content and the timing of it in my life. The timing of it now just doesn’t flow as well. I’m not saying his wack but his music just doesn’t speak to me like the way it does. The song “beautiful” legit got me thru hard times and sing for the moment propelled me to where I am in my personal life and career.
I hate you mom+I hate you Kim+Dissing pop artists= one of hip hop's GOATs.

Eminem missed that ''cool' element that is a part of a being a rapper, but on the technical front he checks literally every box, flow cadences, rhyme patterns, schemes, punchlines, simalies, metaphors, double/triple entendres, its just that lack of cool causing him to not resonate with a lot of us black dudes, they would much rather listen to Jack Harlow, who is clearly not as technical but he sounds like rapper, not just the topics, its just a feel, even conscious rappers like Common have some type of ''cool"
Damn you all prefer Jack Harlow over Eminem ?
@@CinematicTactics yea you lost me at jack Harlow lol how does em not sound like a rapper when he's literally a rappers rapper lmao some point of you ppl just be saying shit atp to discredit em
If there's any WB Hip-Hop artist the black, brown, or any other minority in the Hip-Hop community respected & cool with. It was "Mac Miller" who unfortunately isn't here with us anymore on earth. There's also a good reason behind why they'd choose Mac. No matter if you didn't dig Mac's music or not. You'd be hard pressed to deny that Mac was as cool as they come & put out nothing but positive energy vibes to almost everyone he met & talked too. Just keeping it a buck here! ✌️😉.
Clearly a lot of yous don't know about 99-05 Em, the guy was the fucking tornado,hurricane and freaking earthquake of the whole rap game, from cool to the way he was dressing, rhymes to beats him and 50 were crushing everyone then after he simply matured that's why he ended up not resonate with anyone anymore people grow up and change so obviously not gonna tap in very close with younger generations, I think he should have retired 4 years ago I mean he can still produce and that's more than enough.
What cool
Element did he miss?
Orange and black tigers look WAY superior. They fucking natural but metaphor still works.
I was born in the 80s, Em is not in my top 20 all time. He's not even my fav white rapper. He do sale alot of albums and he is skilled, but me and none of my people ever said "yo put dat Em on"
I agree with Aries, I got Em at number 6 all time
If he IS in your top 10 rappers (ALL TIME) then clearly you haven't listened to enough rappers
saying this to aries spears of all people is wild, maybe he's just that guy and some of yall can't stand a person giving Em his flowers?
Eminem already ripped your favorite rappers on a track.
This is exactly how I feel when people say that Eminem has a classic album.
I have. All hip hop history. Funny how you people come with BS narratives
@@Dezzyyx no BS narrative...you got that wrong
and if you have then you talking about mainstream through "hip hop history" cuz anyone who's listened to enough rappers OVERALL knows in their right mind Eminem is NOT top 10
let's cut the BS
He is defently top 10 alltime for me it isnt about sales or anything
1.Notorious B.I.G
2.Nas
3.Jay Z
4.2pac
5.Eminem
6.Big Pun
7.Big L
8.Jadakiss
9.Redman
10.Prodigy
Btw love how Aries gives Biggie his props in every interview for me is the nicest MC ever dude sounded like God created him to rap.
Respectable top 10
How the hell is jay z better and pac better
Pac can't write like em .. jay can't flow like em , even his music is below mid
PAC wrote dear mama, none Eminem songs come close to that.
Jay Z flows better and he does not need to write.
@@SuperKillerdog lmao
Facts: Eminem outselling your favorite rapper yesterday, today, and tomorrow.
Eminem is so dope that he puts food on other artist's table by simply expanding hip hop in general. Not to mention that lyrically Eminem is a beast that has been endorsed by the best known lyricist ever such as Rakim, KGR, Kiss, etc...he's top 10 even if he's not on people's top 10...think about it
4:03 "ALL OF THEM GET THE FACE" 🤣
Eminem does things with the craft of rap that not many rappers can do, for example, just listen to his verse on All I Think About... Listen to Relapse. The lyrical gymnastics of it all. The way hes bending words, the way he's rhyming sounds, the sharpness of his flow switches and delivery... Theres just no comparison, white or black. Theres no debating that Eminem one thousand percent qualifies, even as the number 1 RAPPER of all time. If you deny that then your reason is obviously because of his race. So yes, Eminem automatically stands out because of his race, but make no mistake, it's the raw skill that elevates him in the conversation.
lyrical dexterity is cool for battle rap but we still have to feel the shit hes saying like wit 2pac . 2pac didn't have to do all of that stuff but had so much substance and real lyrical content in is songs
Although I didn't care for the slim shady LP when I heard my name is I thought it was so cringe and when I seen dre in the video I was like damn maybe dr dre did fall off. I became a fan with the Marshall Mathers LP not my favorite but it showed me dude can actually spit, then the Eminem show was classic. I bought everything from obie trice to d12 albums but as I got older I start to realize to me just my opinion Eminem is not a great song writer. Lyricist? Yes! But I out grew the subject matter. Eminem is a dog on the mic but so is a lot of rappers who are actually good song writers. That don't get the push or benefit of the doubt that Eminem gets from beefing with a Brittany Spears to dissing your own mom on a track are things no other artist could get away with and be taken seriously. It's not because he's white I say this again I'm a fan but the pedestal ppl put em on is to much sometimes. They're artist out there that push the culture forward that actually added something to the game that's still used today.
Swear on everything..summer 2002, family was driving back from the beach. We were in rural SC, and we were all pretty damn hungry, weren’t seeing much, Dad saw a waffle house sign off the exit, “alright, we’re stopping here.” We pull up, probably 8:30am, and there are a gang of bloods in the parking lot. Idk somewhere between 10-20 dudes in the parking lot across a few cars. Moms isn’t having it lol, Dad plays it cool, “it’s fine, just walk by and let’s go eat, we’re fine.” We get out the car, and Eminem’s new album, The Eminem show is playing loudly from one of the cars. We walk in, Dad looks at me, “bet you didn’t expect to hear them playing Eminem” 😂😂😂
He’s not .. so I’m insane then😊
Yes you are he is not top ten but top 5 - 4 = 1😂
Yes u are
Insane coupled with bad taste, oof 😬
….and jealous.
Omg so quirky
IMO Ren from the UK is in Eminem ball park of skill but is still young. For an unsigned artist he is insane. Him and Ez Mil give me hope for the future of hip hop.
Eminem is just the white version of Redman
and yet Redman don't get the respect he deserves.
You said that like its a bad thing lol
Aries spoke nothing but facts on Em!!!
Em not one of my favorites but based on skill, catalog & longevity how can he not be top 5?
