Here’s a serious question: Does Eminem consider himself the greatest of all time? In a medium where participants regularly call themselves “The Best Rapper Alive” or give their albums self-referential titles like The G.O.A.T., for an emcee as accomplished Marshall Mathers to dance around the topic stands out like a green hat with an orange bill. We dig into Slim Shady’s relationship with the throne in this edition of The Breakdown.

white people have accepted tiger woods as being the G.O.A.T in a white mans sport ... now black people have to accept eminem being the G.O.A.T in a black mans rap game
Reply
Incredible point. Never considered that.
Tiger woods is mixed, not just black.
Wait, I think I read that wrong. I thought you said haven't accepted him. Not sure I agree with him being accepted as the goat of golf.
+Varon varonil one drop rule, varon. One drop rule.
+HiphopDx Do u think that "rule" make sense?
He IS the greatest. We just mad he's not a brother. If he was black, we would probably build a statue of this nigga. He would be in black history books.
Not true....he would be in the top 20 if he was black.
I don't agree...but you make valid points in your opinion.
Nope....doesn't make sense to me! But I can see how it makes sense to you! Judging from that verse you posted, if your into that kind of shit, I can see how it's the greatest thing you've ever heard.
Are you high? Em is number 1? Get fuck out with that shit. Em is not in the Top Ten
give me ur top 5..
I love that this was a recommended video from 2 years ago and Eminem now has a song called "Greatest" 😂😂
Boi what are you circling on that paper
Rakim said it himself, if em was black he would be the next muhammad ali...
Instead hes gotta settle for being the hip-hop Bruce Springsteen.
Why do you people only give af about what legendary rappers say, if it compliments to Eminem? Most of you never even heard of Rakim.
Poor white people.
Since they were very successful in rap, they probably know more than normal people what it takes to be a good rapper... kinda common sense tbh
"Common sense?" 2Pac said Scarface was the greatest rapper, Eminem said Redman was the GOAT, Big Pun said Kool G Rap was the GOAT, Justin himself said 3K was the GOAT, does anybody give af?
It goes
1. Eminem
2. 2Pac
3. B.I.G.
ik right big and pac won't come close
no biggie is not top 5
where is pun at though
Em isn't over PAC or bigger. White boy isn't in the top ten.
Rakim
2pac
Biggie,
Krs one
Nas
Jayz
Andre 3k
Big pun
Big L
Common.
Maurice Fulton its a joke
his only challenge has been himself, that's why he's pushed so hard
Janzer let's not forget about Royce da 5'9 every song they do together Royce either matches him or he out bars him, not taking away from Em, em holds the number 2 spot on my goat list Royce and Styles tie for first
Royce da 5'9 is close if not on his level.
Pac released more quality material and he died 4 years into his career. And Poetically and emotionally, Eminem is NOT touching Pac. He may be a better rapper in the technical sense, but Pac is just the better artist. They both speak their minds, but Pac’s poetry is beautiful, dark, harrowing and dope all at once. Eminem has 3 classic albums, Pac has 5, plus a couple of stellar posthumous/side projects (Better Dayz, Resurrection, Thug Life Volume 1 etc.). Eminem fell off after 2002, and I honestly believe that record vendors should offer refunds to the unlucky individuals who purchased Encore and Relapse.
Listen to chloraseptic remix.. Ppl only compare Eminem to Eminem.. N not anyone else... Cause thats funny..
I Am Gelo
His songs with royce yela slaughterhouse other rappers mixtapes are still great. better artist doesnt mean better in general. pac was better storyteller. em can rap with diffrent styles flows talking about diffrent topics etc k rhino released 7albums in a row in only 1yr. pacs first albums/songs arent that special like his work after 93
Em isn't the goat because Em from the future is. Em can't claim the title because he still wants to improve; It's a trap, once you're the greatest the only way left is down, But em raps to beat himself on his last album. Sure he's had his bad tracks, but his improvement is consistent. Em will only admit his status when he reaches his skill ceiling and he'll never admit he's reached a skill ceiling, as Kamikaze proves: He'd rather crash and burn than fade away or take a single step backwards. Other rappers reach a point and stop because they've earned their accolades and wealth, but em doesn't want to settle. He wants to be on top, he wants the notoriety and respect, he wants to not just be a god, but the king of the gods, to be recognized not just by his fans, but also by his haters. He wants the world to begrudgingly admit he is the best.
Jayfoe what u said
Totally agree, soon as you say you're the greatest you have reached your own pinnacle, you are conceding you are as great as you will ever be. I also believe that a true great competes with themselves above all else, Em has to be better then yesterday or it's Em of yesterday that is the goat, not Em today.
@@Isundir u think Em is the dopest lyricist?
Copy paste
Word
I've been a Hip-Hop fan since the 80's, and sometimes it's hard to figure out where Em lands on my Top 10 list. Maybe it's my age, but it's hard to put him in front of Rakim, KRS, Big Daddy Kane and Kool G Rap. But man, what a career he's had. He was the biggest selling artist of the 2000's including every and any genre. 2 diamond albums. An Oscar. 10 or more Grammy's. He even "fell off", disappeared for 4 years and came back with a few of the best selling rap albums since 2009. He's definitely in the GOAT conversation.
so with you on that
so with you on that
Thank you ! Finally someone making sense. Honestly i dont think people give KRS and Rakim enough props, they are hands down at the top, for me better than eminem.
Now this is a respectable, objective comment.
Or Kool G Rap.People have seem to forgot about Kool G Rap and Big Daddy Kane
I don't think Eminem thinks that he isn't the best, he just doesn't want to claim being the best. If he is the best, why be better. Its the chase of becoming a god he likes, not the sitting on the throne.
A isGood Well said. I think that's exactly it.
A isGood I think he knows it but will never claim it, he will simply keep outdoing everyone he can till he dies haha
I think this is well shown on his track Rap God where he constantly raps that he keeps trying to outdo himself and that his only competition is himself. He knows he spits bars hotter than anyone in the industry so he don't have to claim the title, the title will bestow itself upon him, and then he will outdo that title.
Personally I don't think he cares.
Rakim is better than Eminem both lyrically and flow wise
"Let's do the math: if I was black, I woulda sold half
I ain't have to graduate from Lincoln High School to know that"
- Eminem - White America
If he sold half he would still be one of the best selling hip hop artiste
@Jeremy Dixon I'm not sure you understood the concept of the question
Jeremy Dixon that’s not even fair even coming from Em cause Em has a 180 turn around in content if he’s black, let’s be real.
Jeremy Dixon If he sold half he will still be on of the best selling hip hop artist. Most of his Reactors are black
I see you didn’t finish the quote
A look at a timeline of Eminem's stunning quotes, rapping ability, unrealistic and unmachable lyrics, word play and rhymical supremecy
*The only MC with 2 then 3 certified diamonds singles*
*The only artist with two diamond certified albums*
*Only hip hop artist with 6 Grammy's for best hip hop albums*
*The only artist with an Oscar for best original song in hip hop genre*
*The best selling hip hop artist*

10- It's gettin' even harder
Tryna feed and water my seed, plus teeter-totta caught up between bein' a father and a prima donna baby mama drama, screamin' on her, too much for me to wanna stay in one spot, another day of monotony's
Gotten me to the point I'm like a snail, I've got to formulate a plot or end up in jail or shot
Success is my only motherfuckin' option failure's not (lose yourself, 2002)
11- His palms are sweaty, knees weak, arms are heavy
There's vomit on his sweater already: Mom's spaghetti
He's nervous, but on the surface he looks calm and ready
To drop bombs, but he keeps on forgettin what he wrote down, the whole crowd goes so loud
He opens his mouth, but the words won't come out (lose yourself, 2002)
12- The criminal cop killing hip-hop filling a minimal swap to cop millions of Pac listeners
You're coming with me, feel it or not

You Bizzles forgot Slizzle does not give a fuck
(Till I collapse, 2002)
13- Now I would never diss my own momma just to get recognition take a second to listen for who you think this record is dissing
But put yourself in my position, just try to envision
Witnessing your momma popping prescription pills in the kitchen
Bitching that someone's always going through her purse and shit's missing
Going through public housing systems, victim of Munchhausen's Syndrome
My whole life I was made to believe I was sick when I wasn't
'Til I grew up, now I blew up, it makes you sick to ya stomach

So you could try to justify the way you treated me Ma? (cleaning out my closet, 2002)
14- My head hit's the pillow, a weeping willow, I can't sleep, a pain so deep it bellows

15- I'm just Marshall Mathers (Marshall Mathers)

(marshall Mathers, 2000)

So expect no apologies

17- We touch I feel a rush
We clutch It isn't much but its enough to make me wonder what's in store for us It's lust its torturous (space bound, 2010)
18- But sometimes this shit just seems everybody only wants to discuss me so this must mean I'm disgusting but it's just me I'm just obscene ( without me, 2002)
19- My words are weapons,
I use them to crush my opponents, these words are weapons, I never show no emotion
My words are weapons, I use them to kill who ever's steppin' to me my words are like weaponry on a record (words are weapons, 2004)
20- I'm so bad
I'm so good that I'm so bad
I guarantee I'll be the greatest thing you ever had
Cause you ain't never met nobody like me
And you ain't gonna wanna fuck nobody else again
(so bad, 2010)
21- Lucky you, 2018 (2nd verse) a highlight of what rap was like
22- I maybe a little too fast paced and racy
Sometimes the average listener rewinds and plays me twenty times
'Cause I say so many rhymes, it may seem
like I'm goin' too fast 'cause my mind is racing (never enough, 2004)
23- Rap god, 2013 (complete song) 1,560 words in just 6 mins(now in genius world record) a truly self acclaimed rap god

His catalogue covers everything..you forgot best work out songs. Or that falls under motivation.
Yeah , but it goes Tupac than Em. No debate about this,
Someone's desperate for a T-shirt
he doesn't brag or own it because he is one of the most humble artists in hip hop
Looks like he said 90% right there in your quote. That means he thinks 10% are better than him? That sounds like he under sold his skill. Pretty humble for a rap god if you ask me.
He released a song called "G.O.A.T" not so long ago. Hes a lot more humble now that hes off drugs, but he knows how great he is.
He reckons his talent, because come on, look at where he is now. But he is pretty humble. Look at his annotations on Rap God on Rap Genius.
+Bars Man McGee but in that song he was saying he's one of the goat. he wasn't saying that he WAS the goat.
ROOFUS THE DOG "Im the GOAT" "Im" "The" "Goat", Greatest of all time is a singular term.
What if he's just humble
Or horrible
Trent Payne well his rap voice is more interesting and satisfying lol
Trent Payne nah you tripping. If em really wanted to he could have a verse the could kill someone. Even if revival was not his best album even tho I liked it
Not really
Rory D'Alton no that’s Kendrick
Em's verse on renegade was the definition of internal rhyme
he's Royce & he's the King of Detroit! and i'm just a.. (Royce da 5'9 featuring Eminem - Renegade)
Who's here after Em's 2019 verse on Logic's track, "Homicide", where he officially called himself "THE GOAT"?
..."From the east coast
to the west,
I'm the ethos, and I'm THE GOAT.
Who da best?
I don't gotta say a fuckin' thing though,
'cause MCs know!"
raverone909 it could still be tongue and cheek
@erik bray on GOAT, he never says he is "THE goat". He only says he is "A goat", or "ONE OF the goats". This is an important distinction.
@erik bray Oh man.. are you gonna feel dumb after reading this... If there's only 1 goat, why would Em himself break it down to school you when he says, "And for those of y'all who don't know what a goat is, it means the greatest of all time, and I consider myself ONE OF THOSE, so thank you very much. Here it goes." So wtf are you even debating here? All of this is null and void anyway, since he came out in Homicide as saying, "I'm THE goat". So sit down. And before calling me a genius sarcastically, why don't you take a trip to the genius website where you'll find that Em's comments on "best rapper is white/best golfer black" is Em quoting a narrative that Chris Rock made public, and now he's catching all the flack off of that. Educate yourself, clown.
@erik bray You must be trolling or don't know how to read, because I directly addressed that as a quote from Chris Rock. It's literally in quotation marks, on genius. You click on it, and it goes into detail: Chris Rock is widely attributed as the originator of this ironic quip, and while it actually may have been Charles Barkley or someone else entirely to come up with it, Rock made it popular by using it as a joke in his shows.
So Erik.. again, I don't even know why we're arguing here. I believe Em is THE goat. I just think that he's danced around the idea in playful ways without actually saying it.. up until Homicide. Anything beyond that is interpretation/speculation. I don't know what your point is, or what you're even doing here besides semantics.
@erik bray That's okay. Bye Felicia. And to anyone else who reads this, if you are also confused by what Erik commented, and see my point here, go ahead and give this comment a like. Let's let that determine who's wrong.
em is without a doubt in the goat conversation. Yeah he is white but color doesn't and shouldn't matter anymore. To me he is #1.
he will be the greatest of all time in my opinion no matter what anyways.
eminem to me is the goat i'm entitled to my opinion.
NAS
1 eminem 2 big or nas 3 jay z
People who support nas, get out of here. He had one hot album then fell off. You know what makes a g.o.a.t? Someone who changes the game, and becomes father to the new generation of rappers after him. All the artist we're hearing right now have the upmost respect for Eminem, or biggie, Tupac, but Eminem is the father right now.
So many mcs got butthurt when he named dropped artists and they weren't the names he dropped, being a rapper I would definitely feel like I reached a level of greatness if Eminem said my music was dope, over nas. He has the track record, the success, he's respected.
Eminem doesn't claim to be G.O.A.T. because he has too much respect for his heroes and peers. #FAX
What do you not understand about "tongue in cheek?" All that bragging is just a joke
Edwin Corbin or he can't back it up.
What is fax? It that suppose to be facts?
he literary has a song saying he calls him self on of the goats
Edwin Corbin u fucking idiotic moron, He did wit yo dumb ass #THISISFAXULILBIHHH
I’ll make a very honest statement here, in America you might consider some black rapper a GOAT but outside of USA people know Eminem much more and he’s a legend and GOAT. He brought the whole world to the scene. Respect.
true to that
Tell me how much hiphop do you listen to. And how many other artist do you know? Eminem is popular and mainstream but that doesn't make him the best.
wiseguy 26 I ain’t needa tell you shit who the fuck are you? 😂
@@AnshSingh-vb2kn Thanks for proving my point. My comment clearly struck a nerve for a reason kid. Em is top 5 but many of his fans don't listen to hiphop or listen to very little of it. Posers thinking they can give an opinion on something they're completely ignorant of. 😆
wiseguy 26 got some more paragraphs to fill? Well not today ma man. I am in no mood to argue with someone stupid 😄 have a great day
he literally made ''rap god'' and nobody said anything about it. Imagine if Lil pump says he is the rap god, people would be furious.
People will always refuse to accept Eminem as a GOAT, simply because he's white. That's literally the only/main reason. His ability to tell a story and structure memorable, relatable verses is enough to respect.
No its because Tupac exsists.
typical story coming from a white boy. obviously he's all u listen too. I came name 20 rappers better than em
like no other rapper ever did that,lol
Daniel Stellhorn no he not,the reason you say that is because you wasn't a big hip hop fan before watching 8mile. You say black dudes hate but you disrespect a whole culture before and after him that's better and I can name them. White just champion em because he's white,thats the bottom line.
+elyons83 I can name 20 rappers I listen to you probably never heard of. Fuck off with that racial shit
The fact he doesn't say it, is the reason he is. When someone thinks their the best they slack, hes still cutting himself no slack and calling out any areas for improvement when he is already the most skilled rap artist alive. He is definitely the greatest of all time so far...
Nah
definetly not true.. top 5, maybe.. but not the greatest
the way I see it, confidence can make or break you. if you claim to be the goat, I imagine you're working your ass off to make it so, not slacking off
he does say he is the greatest. wtf are you on? giving him props for something you say he didnt do when he did? typical blind bs.
70% of hip hop fans were introduced by Eminem
White people
Apart from black people, mostly it's because of Eminem that brings rap to mainstream to the universe . That's the truth even if you don't want to agree 💯
@I say shotgun, you say wedding that is what I'm saying, before he join the game, it was not a popular music . It was just within the community or in America. But Eminem took it to the whole new level. He made Mainstream.thats my point. so he influenced majority of the people regardless of what generation.
@I say shotgun, you say wedding you are wrong. Maybe you are jealous. It is just in US that he is not considered to be the KING. apart from the jealous black, He is definitely the God of Rap
@I say shotgun, you say wedding my point is, he is the king because nobody in the game does what he does and it is only because of him that Rap became mainstream
It's funny Em says "If you aint tryin to be the best, why you rappin?!?" His favorite rapper Reggie (Redman) NEVER claimed to he the best type of rapper.
I'm waiting on that Nas is the goat video
not by this nerd "journalist" lol im with you on Nas tho
Nas has used ghostwriters, he is disqualified
+Red Forman no he didn't that was a rumor that got ended quickly
nooooo
Cube ,nas and jay never had writers just a rumor that many know is false
We all know you're not really circling anything
hahaha! That's funny. Thanks for checking the show Chandler.
NO THANK YOU MAN!!!!
HipHopDX if you actually listen to the never released cut of G.O.A.T by Marshall Mathers that is just now seeing the light of day the first verse he says for those of yall that dont know what a goat is it means the greatest of all times and I consider myself one of those so thank you very much here I go
That part was on a snippet released like waaaaaay back though. Point still stands though.
I love your use of large words in your vids. It really makes me have to think about what you’re saying and engages me in the video. Great stuff 👏👌🏼
I respect how he respects the kings of rap: Biggie & Pac
I bet this dude can do a great Obama impersonation
hahahahaha xD fr
Lol this made my day. I wish he would try though.
Damn that comment made my morning hahaha
Ha! Just seeing this! Not as solid as it should be.
at least eminem writes his own lyrics
Black Jew Nat T well if u can't write English wtf do you know about lyrics
Eminem is clearly the GOAT, no one can stand a chance against him
Big L? I'm sorry, but Big L only released one project when he was alive "Lifestyles Ov Da Poor & Dangerous", we don't really have that much of a sample size from him, it's just like claiming Biggies the goat when he only has 2 projects, meanwhile a guy like Tupac had two terrible projects before he had three great ones.
MAD ILAD Well, if you can’t write English, wtf do you know about lyrics?*
Shut the fuck up mate, you’re just being a fucking hypocrite.
who do you think eminem is? lil pump or what?
Does Em consider *himself* the GOAT? NO.
It is way too surreal for him to consider himself better than the guys he looked up to. But he will one day have to face facts.
jaap ten dijk he literally wrote a song about it called goat where he says hes the goat in every single chorus.
jaap ten dijk true

Man i love your vids cause i love hip-hop and you seem to love talking about it just by the tone of your voice.
Wow. First time on this channel. This guy is friggin awesomely well thought out and composed. Anything he brought up that could be debated could only be debated by someone who actually put in some serious time, research and thought. This was a great video.
Thank you, Micah. We have a new episode dropping later today. Check it out.
Looking forward to it. Just got done watching your Mumble Rap discussion. Man,You're gonna takeover RUclips. Compared to a lot of other professionally hosted RUclips shows, yours has got to be one of the best. You might give Sway a run for his money of you havent already.
Sway's the illest. I had a chance to interview him back in 2010 before my first hosting gig. I asked him for advice because I was nervous. He told me to "Keep it brief. Talk to the crowd like they're your homies and let the DJ do the work." That's basically my approach to the breakdown each week. He's still setting the bar.
Yea he's great. Good points he gave you, and you're doing it well. To the point, well prepared/presented, and on top of that I noticed you have a knack for bringing your content back around full circle, which gives it some fortitude.
HipHopDX Hey why don't you talk about Big L? He's been "dead" for years but can you still talk about him? Can you do a breakdown about Big L?
gotta put Em on Rap Rushmore
ExtraOrdinary MUSIC yep
no you dont.
He's a b-level artist whose excellent at freestyle, I never heard em's shit played on he streets by black peoples. His music won't live forever like PAC or biggie. Hell his shit almost dead and he's still here.
Trent Payne good rappers music doesn't live anymore it's all about that gay ass 21 savage and bullshit artist like him
2Pac, The Notorious B.I.G., Eazy-E and Eminem
He may not always talk about Eminem but when he does its in public . The most jelous rapper in the world . Lord Jammar
This is the second video I have watch of you guys (first one being on Will Smith) and love it. I llove the format, the presentation, the content and the passion you each half. Well done to all involved and thanks for sharing and educating
Most awarded, most popular, best rapper of all time. Eminem ladies and gentlemen. Variety of lyrics, unique words, perfect flow, sick beats, word plays, speed, best voice in the game, whispers - sounds good talks - sounds good , screams - sounds good. Also the voice modulation makes songs more attractive. He puts so much emotions in them. You can hear the pure hate in disses, pure love in songs to Hailie. You can also hear the fucking voice cracks in for instance Difficult or When I'm Gone. He perfeclty expresses his emotions with the voice and lyrics.
Can spit loudly and quickly, making you feel like he has infinite amount of air in his lungs, even after his 40th birthday. Examples? Rap God, Best Friend. There you go.
Those are some of the reasons he got himself to the Guinness's World Records Book twice, was nominated for a reward over 700 times and won over 500 times including an Oscar and 15 Grammies.
That's why he got himself 23 million subs and over 9 billion views on YT VEVO. That's why he was the best selling music artist of the first decade of 21st century.
That's why he still is the best selling hip-hop artist of all time.
That's why he is the Rap God. That's why he is the best rapper of all time and it doesn't matter if you like it or not, if you admit it or not, if you hate him or love him, if you like another rapper more.
Eminem is the best rapper of all time and that is as obvious as the fact you will die one day.
Just pointing out he now has 3 albums that have lived for 300 weeks on the Billboard 200. Less than 20 albums have ever lived that long. It means people loved it and new people keep wanting to hear it and buy it. As an example Thriller by Michael Jackson JUST got 300 weeks and it's the bestselling album of all time. Recovery, TES, and Curtain Call are his albums and he's the only artist to ever accomplish this.
Livia Kai caz he’s white and majority of America is white lmao trump won the election even if the music isn’t that good more white people will say he’s the goat just because most of America is racist that’s facts idgaf what anyone says
hasan ahmad You can't claim to not give a fuck, when clearly fucks are given on your part. If the majority of america was black, then eminem would not be selling so well, correct? Does that mean black people are racist?
If yes, then all people are racist.
If no, then we must conclude that he is just that good, and despite his skin colour people love his music.
Either way, you lose and your argument is fallible.
@@hasanahmad4684 why the fuck do you have to bring skin color into this?
hasan ahmad that’s the stupidest thing I’ve ever heard, name me a rapper with better flows and rhythms
hasan ahmad racist
I love how excited you are about talking about this stuff. It is infectious.
i did this retrospective many times and jumped to this conclusion u just said every time
I am a black person, and I truly believe that the thing that he says at the end about "Do we except a white person as the GOAT of hip hop" as racist. I believe that all people should be truly equal. I'm opposed to all white supremacy and racism towards black people, but I'm also opposed to things that favor black people in any way like affirmative action. Everyone should be 100% equal, no favoritism at all. His saying that about white people leads to black people growing up having a resentment toward white people. And black kids having a resentment toward white kids are just as bad as a white kid hating a black kid.
Just my thoughts. Don't get mad :)
Will Rambo whites haven’t hated in decades. They’re exhausted and afraid
Cave Man I think that's only true as a percentage. There's still plenty of awful people in the world D:
Yet you'll overlook the fact that affirmative action has a whole has benefited WHITE WOMEN more than any POC. Sure on an interpersonal level, it would be great for people to get along, but there are still too many systematic issues, implicit biases and history to simply go the kumbaya route. To see people as individuals is great, but don't be so naive as to let that attitude blind you to the bigger picture.
Will Rambo.. respect my friend. Respect. Period.
Thank you for saying this.
If you told a black dude in 1996 after 2pac and biggie died that a white guy would come along and sell more records lol
They would have believe you because they know white America wold eat that shit. Black people know better then that. that why when ask a white person who they think is the 9 out of 10 would say Em, Black people know better then that shit
A lot of black people in hip hop that are emcees and normal people outside respect Eminem because Eminem respected hip hop is a black genre a culture, he knew he was lucky, but he also knew after him there will never be another great white rapper. I respect him as a human and as a emcee to the fullest in my opinion he deadass is the greatest ever to be alive because after he dies, there will never a emcee who is as important as he is except Nas and after him Rakim. Trench, Big Daddy Kane, etc. are greats too but they never have captivated the world the way Eminem did. Eminem and Tupac are both equally important Eminem is as popular as Tupac they both changed the world and in Hip Hop, sad thing is this generation of ignorant niggas hate listening to Tupac and Eminem especially Emimem because their drugged up brain from popping all that E cant comprehend his level of complexity in lyricism, and for Tupac they hate to hear real shit real shit to bring awareness to black folks. And im deadass sure, if Tupac were alive today, he would love and respect and work the fuck with Eminem without a doubt. Tupac like to hear the words in rap not the beat, so those who bash Em lowkey for being white but go over and listen to ignorant rap music that has nothing but the beat popping Tupac won't mind verbally bashing those of his skin color that encourage, support, and love ignorant rap music. Tupac hate ignorant rap music, so Eminem's work would be judged fairly and be respected a lot by Pac simply because Eminem remained a lyricist and there's always been a message in his songs, some fictional stories like Stan, and like personal ones which he has dozen of them for ex. "No Love" (which I feel like he can't beat that) but he lowkey cant say he the greatest alive or is rap god because once he claims he is i feel like he has done what he needed to do in HH and that he has nothing else to prove to the world which might make him feel not interested in the art and craft of Hip Hop.
Sorry for that long shit doe smh
whites take our culture run with it become praised and make more money
vanilla ice sold multi millions. so ur point is?
Looks like he is the G.O.A.T now with the classic kamikaze. Which bought mayhem into the rap game. 🐐
Kamikaze is anything but a classic
@@luisrios2949 Nah i would say Kamikaze gave him the GOAT status, he literally made the entire rap game shook
@@yure3124 I know it did but kamikaze is a mixed bag, kendrick had the game shook with each album he's dropped
Luis Rios Well Kendrick is amazing but he cannot be in the GOATs conversation...he has a long way to go..drop several classics at least like other greats. What he was trying to say..he is still shaking the industry 20yrs later in the game..that is legendary !
@@cikumwaura2378 I know he isint GOAT material yet but consistency is very important , and that's something that eminent lacks , and when talking about people who who have been in the game for as long as him, Kanye is far more consistent
That's a dope ass collage behind you bro... Great video too.
I've said Eminem was the best for years now. Just pure skill man. Everyone has their own opinion or way of seeing things but to me...no one can fuck with Em.
I agree.
Ice Man No. Not by a long shot. And I fuck wit damn near every artist you just named. Never has anyone bodied more tracks than Em.
Ice Man And Kendrick more skilled? You have got to be shitting me. That's just disrespectful.
+Ice Man thats just a big NOPE
+Ice Man The only one of those Kendrick has over Em is storytelling. Other than that you're stupid and no one else on your list is fucking with Em skill wise either
Eminem has been rapping since 1988
Great job bro, you nailed it.
Yup. Since he was 16.
The thing I love about Eminem is how relatable his music is how you can connect with it I love that about him listening to cleaning out my closet is 100 percent relatable to me and how even listening to Eminem ever since I was a child I sometimes even find more of his music tbh he is really is the goat 🐐
Well kamikaze is out how so he definitely thinks he’s better then everyone
He is a better rapper than everyone...
Nas
@@niggato23 nobody mentioned Nas foh
you're one of those people who came out of nowhere and didn't even bother to listen to revival and the history of kamikaze
He is
I'm honestly getting super tired of all this race bullshit. I don't care who you like best and why, just cut the shit with race. If you can't let a white rapper be the best or up there, because he is white then you don't love hip hop and you should leave. Everyone understands where hiphop started and its background so on and so on. The thing is HIP HOP IS GREAT MUSIC! of course people are going to want to make music of any kind as long as its good music.... On top of that hip hop is dying and one of the biggest reasons why is the fucking community. Yall are straight killing yourself is it is so sad to see. Stop pushing people away based on not living the in streets or not being black, because when people see how hostile this community is they are just going to give up on the music. On top of all that, it is even more important that people like the community, because this is one of the most community driven music genres. hip hop is about telling stories/ your feelings while showing off you flow and lyrical prowess. its one of the best things when i find another person who loves the same artists that i do and we tell each other lyrics that gave us goose bumps, because hip hop is supposed to do that and bring people together. Fuck man all yall out here saying "i love tupac!" Then completely ignore half the shit tupac was trying to do/say. I can guarantee if tupac could see the hip hop community right now he would be shaking his head for to many damn reasons..
You basically just describe what whites has always done and still do to this day
The Infamous I mean, i am white (kinda i am half) and don't give a fuck about what anyone that i don't know does. What you do with your life is your business not mine you know. Just kills me that people straight are killing their own community for whatever reason.
We're not killing our own community though and I or anyone else don't have to like nor care about Eminem and his music whatever the reason maybe
And for you to tell people they aren't hip hop fans and that they need to leave for not liking Eminem when you yourself probably isn't even that knowledgeable about hip hop outside of Eminem is ignorant
Eminem is not even in my top ten not because he white but because there are ten rappers I prefer over him and I don't care for his music end of story
Again you can't tell someone to stop liking hip hop just because they don't like Eminem for whatever reason you don't own hip hop and you don't decide what makes someone a fan of it
SO WHY YOU'RE SITTING HERE TYPING THINGS IN ALL CAPS CHECK YOURSELF
also making assumptions about what I like and childish insults is the first thing to make me not take you seriously
Just because I don't agree with your opinion doesn't mean I listen to "mumble" rap
Also if rap is the only genre of music you know I feel sorry for you
The Infamous I mean i know rock, because of my dad. For the most part hip hop has been my life though. I'm typing in all caps, because you clearly were not reading what i typed and the shit pisses me off and, if you don't like ANY rapper for any anything, but their lack of skill or flow/ style then again you do not love hip hop. Stop pretend to be a fan of hip hop if you don't understand the basic fundamentals about and can't look past the fucking skin color of someone.
Eminem is the greatest lyricist of all time and is the only rapper to touch of every category of rap , from funny radio songs to rock/rap to diss tracks to pop music , etc. this man can be argued as a goat. What more does this man need to do ?
the greatest lyricist of all time is nas
thedondon911911 why are u arguing with yourself
imagine this video after his new album lol
He still hasn't claimed the crown though
hotsizler305 He did actually on Homicide Ft Logic
hotsizler305 bro he literally said “I’m the greatest” in Greatest. Check the chorus
Imagine this video after his last album "MTMB side B"
Being humble is a part of being the greatest. It keeps cocky from growing legs and running a marathon through your career.
It's kinda sad that we're living in a microwave and cellphone era growing faster than lightning and still so afraid to say that a white dude.... who shares the same inspirations as the greats and arguably as bad and maybe a worse upbringing than most; is in fact the true God of rap.... he's a fuccing lyricist[I .....I WISH I COULD TYPE SCREEM!!!!] WHAT CAN'T YOU HEAR WHEN YOU HEAR HIM CREATE..... YOU have to sit still to ingest the content of his content... I'm a black male from south central la, nwa fan, street fan, long listed felon, 3children /3baby mama's... with no smuttt on my rep. 😄etc....etc.....I been in the thick of it since the beginning. I'm not afraid to say.... that as of now..... he is the rap God!!!!! And the bar has been placed pretty fuccing high....
Thank you for the commentary
he is the rap god indeed
Preciate you bro. Hes top 5 in my book for sure. Nas might take it for me
Eminem is not thd greatest . stupse

In the works now
😀😀
ahhh shuckie shuckie
I'm trying to find the right angle for KRS. He's so heavily documented. Any thoughts?
Cause Hip Hop always disrespects its elders unlike Rock Fans who embrace the elders
Eminem definitely in G.O.A.T conversation. He's in my top 5.
I love how this is show is more academic than most. Very nice to have people who actually seem educated and well-read (or listened in this case) talking about a subject that people often make opinions about with no information at all.
Dude, where can I get those pics behind you from? That Ice Cube one is so dope!
EM top 10 but he ain't better than Nas, Pac, Biggie, Andre 3000 and Rakim
Again with the Andre 3000...overrated
+Rick Harding that's why we think em overrated,yall have no respect
MAYBE nas, but biggie & Andre 3000?
3stacks is underrated wtf are you talking about?
+Tv Sab5 hell yes 3k
Strictly going on wordplay and the way he makes words do whatever the fuck he wants to do, Em is the best by far.
If you want to measure a rapper by wordplay, surely you'd have to concede
MF DOOM is the GOAT
Eminem is the G.O.A.T. Thats a fact. If hes not claim it, we do for him (as fans). He is the rap god just as much as dionysos was wine god.
Scott V finally someone in these comments that sees DOOM as the wordsmith he is. Gotta give a shout to Aesop as well though he is a little more scattered than MF. Em is superb with the way he uses words and rhymes so consistently, but he cannot string together a verse as effortlessly than DOOM
MrSkeezymak W
I was gonna say something about DOOM but you guys already did. For me it's a toss up.
Those pictures in the background are amazing, link to buy them?
Dope that you reference the Evil Twin bar. Cause that's probably one of the favorite verse in that album
He's the Mozart of rap. It's pure obsession at this point. When you rhyme articulate PHRASES and not just the last word of a line.... you are by miles.... the GOAT .
Cygnus Vismund Eminem isn't unique in his ability to include internal rhymes in his bars. Where Eminem exceeds is doing this while telling a story. Other artists do this too, I'd argue just as well as he does. Eminem is fucking amazing, but he isn't the only person that uses a complex rhyme scheme in any way.
BRH BinarySloth that's true but he include double intender in it too
Almost every line have a meaning
BRH BinarySloth name them
A SomeBody mf doom, earl sweatshirt, mos def, kendrick, daylyt, big pun, treach busta rhymes. Most great rappers do this , including me, and im dead average
A SomeBody rakim started doing it before em even rapped
You can't elect yourself the GOAT, the people do, and Eminem is the GOAT
Josh Martling I agree, Eminem is a goat. But Pac is the Goatee! Pac beats Eminem by 2 letters.
I agree handsome
Michael jackson said he was the king of pop
Trent Payne I don't think those rappers like game, 50 , snoop the list goes on are white suburbans, find another way to make your point
Trent Payne ok listening carefully and then im done , you said white suburban kids listen to Eminem, I said not in these exact words your personal data is wrong because most rap artists great ones say Eminem is a great MC. Ok,and btw you don't know what snoop listens to .
who are the paintings of the two people in the background at 6:15?
One has a big gold clock around his neck, the other has a gold chain?
where can I get those pictures behind you?, they are so cool. and nice video btw.
Eminem is great. anyone who say he sucks is doing it for attention. they want a lot of comments and feedback from others
silvertoothtiger20 I could argue he has been sonically inconsistent bud
silvertoothtiger20 stfu
Sleepy Bone found who he was talkin about!
Shock same with u
Eminem is really good but he is like the usher of rap, really talented but without Michael Jackson he wouldnt have the foundation, em wouldn't be em without 2pac, biggie, nas ect
Eminem is the GOAT. i dont care if he is white he is the best of the best
But gangsters are on youtube comment sections calling other people "gay" lol eminem may not be the best in your opinion but at least present facts when you argue XD
African conservative GTFOOH
Trent Payne okay Trent. That's like the whitest name ever
Flombae the fuck is wrong with you.
Trent Payne so what people listen to in the hood says whos the goat? That makes no fucking sense. Skillwise you can debate who is the best rapper with only 2: nas or em. And that would probably be eminem.
I would love to see second video on this topic :)
This guy is always so excited about hip hop, it just makes me happy to watch.
legacy on mmlp2 is one of his best pieces of work imo
RedChevelle that’s one of his most underrated songs. Almost Famous,Marshall Mathers,Rock Bottom,and Bad Guy are excellent too. I figured Bad Guy would be more popular than it is given that it’s the sequel to Stan but I guess it’s not.
Check my page then, I have a video showcasing my remix to legacy. No lyrics, just a beat

Calling yourself the GOAT has no meaning. It has to come from your peers
Yeah but most of his peers are blacks that can’t accept the truth of the matter. They can’t stand that not only is he better, he’s so much better than the best black rapper ever...I was a huge Tupac, Biggie, WuTang, etc. fan but the truth is none of those guys scream genius. They give an aura of top notch talent. Eminem...dude is a genius. He’s Good Willing Hunting if the rap game
LMAO Eminem is boring, nerdy lame type shit without passion. Nobody bumps eminem and it is not because he is white but he is just cringe. He self proclaim himself to be lots of things etc. I mean, Kendrick did say.. Be Humble
@@DigThugDoug 😂😂😂😂😂😂.....smh
Biggie is the greatest..
@@DubElectroDR lmao you're whack.
Great video and love the shirt! Talking about the GOAT while wearing the GOAT.
Its sad that because em is white and rhymes like a madman, people (black people) don't want to give him the GOAT title. Like what more does he have to do. And by the way, I'm also black.
AIRG01
when did ra say em was the best?
Listen man eminem is on another planet. Canibus and all those guys are dope but non of them can outrap em. Get over the fact that he's white. If a guy can rap his off, give em his respect and move on. The things he says are absolutely ridiculous.
King Isaac
Em is on another planet? Nah if anybody is it would be canibus considering his subject matter. He started the whole 100- 1000 bar songs so out rapping em isnt a factor. Em is good for technical rhyming and internal rhymes but his content isnt out of this world at all. Its quite worldly in fact.
I heard crazier stuff in hip hop but maybe its how em delivers it to ppl.
Maybe its because hes white you guys dont take notice when black mcs rhyme out of the norm like tech 9 or bis, heck shia lebeouf just killed nearly every rapper today in a freestyle.
AIRG01
Where is the vid?
93avarice lmfao go ahead and give me another song like stan, 3am, my darling, when I'm gone, mosh ?
Skin color doesn't matter , Em is the goat
Yemeni Guy if eminem was black he would be a nobody... GO LISTEN TO HIS FIRST ALBUMS AND PICTURE A BLACK RAPPER... lmaooo he’s definitely not the goat... he’s great yeah but not the goat
Walter Taylor Facts 🙏🏾 Em is trash
He not the goat but he a legend for sure
Rakim even said if he was black he’d be the Muhammad ali of rap so kick back homie
Eminem an Legend but not the G.O.A.T because we all remember what happened when he got dissed by 50 Cent
I think the reluctance of calling himself the greatest of all time IS what actually solidifies him as the greatest of all time. Humility and letting his work speak for him.
@@techCUISINElord Jamar us that you? God damn!
Those pictures in the background are dope. How do I get them?
We need Rakim: The Greatest Rapper of All Time
He's more of an emcee than rapper . He focuses on rhyme more than the meaning.
Finally someone with sense!...
Not exactly sure what that has to do with being the GOAT, Rachit. In my eyes he is the most qualified of that title and the best to ever touch a mic, whether you call it emcee or rapper he was a master of both. He had the technical lyricism of a true emcee since Paid in Full, and he covers dozens of socio-political issues on Dont Sweat the Technique with songs like "casualties of war" and "teach the children"
Rakim is the GOAT . No disagreements here .
BlackMusicGenre respect my dude
"Is hiphop ready for a white rapper, to call himself the GOAT"?
Seriously dude?
look, I don't wanna seem like I'm an ass kissing fanboy, but Eminem isn't the greatest rapper of all time nah, he's the best selling ARTIST of the last decade and I'm not even talking about rap no more, he sold more than Michael Jackson at that time plus u can't Ignore the fact that Eminem is the first rapper to take rap out of the hood. I know rap was on TV way before Eminem, I'm talking about global shows and record selling. I don't need to state that lyrically non of nowadays rappers can fuck with Eminem, just name a rapper, take his latest album and put it against one song from Eminem's latest album.......
finally, its 2016 I think its way too late to ask if hiphop is "ready" for a white rapper to be the GOAT cuz that has been proved years ago...
Chance would give Eminem fits. He's so nimble and lyrical and melodic and imaginative... all the things Em is but with more soul.
I think Earl is the best. But "best" is really all subjective
Are you drunk? Michael Jackson wasn't even the #1 selling artist at that time, Outkast released the #1 selling rap album within that decade so Eminem wasn't even the most popular. Also "Eminem took rap out the hood" I guess Tupac doesn't come to mind for you, does it, Neither does Biggie and The Roots and Outkast. Name 1 album that compares to Eminem's last album lyrically...How about Tetsuo & Youth. Mural alone is more lyrical than any song Eminem has ever made. Just stop.
+Alex Fon Alright brah first things first Outkast never sold half the records Eminem did, They only had the grammy in 2003 for their album, so thats one year Eminem won like 14 grammys within that decade x"D. With all respect to Pac and biggie but have you ever heard of a Pac or Biggie world tour? nah. Thats what I meant by Eminem Took rap out of the hood. He's been world touring since 2000. Finally idk why but whenever Eminem is brought in the greatest lyricist of all time conversations people bring up Lupe Fiasco, in my opinion Lupe over complicates through his lyrics to stand out and he had that style for a while now and obviously didn't gain half of Eminem's fan base he's not even that mainstream nowadays.....
+Stephen White found it.
Yo how are u so hyped all the time ??? Love it
Kayne West: God has sent me
Eminem: What did i do?
Eminem is the Rap God. Period. He doesn't need to wear the crown cause he above that.
Fuzzy Wuzzy Angels no
Fuzzy Wuzzy Angels Tupac is better than him
Biyamin nah
Biyamin I don’t think so
Lmao pac can’t be comparable to these mortals lol no one comes close to him
Ok and here's by brief argument for him being the goat. People pick one rapper who they feel wins lyrically and then another for flow and another for storytelling and a other for cultural impact, battling, speed ECT. I've never heard ONE person used to take Eminem down in all categories. If you need to gather a collection of people to take down 1 MC how is he not the GOAT?
Livia Kai this is stupid? Eminem doesnt take down anyone in all categories either?
Yea he does. You can't deny his lyrical and storytelling abilities. And if you're saying he didn't have a huge impact on music culture as a whole, then I don't think you even know who you're talking about
Yes I know there are many rappers better than eminem. Just not many that are better than him in all those categories
Jerry Williams Many acclaimed Rapper's have said for Em to get the respect and acceptance he has, he had to be as good or better than the best. Here's a few names that list him top 5 or have said he's one of the best ever. Andre 3000, Rakim, Jay-Z, Kendrick, Nas, Cole, Kanye, Wayne, Redman, Lupe, Akon, LL, Snoop, Tyler, Earl etc etc. He's the ONLY non black guy who has consistently been put in goat convos. That's earned and earned the hard way.
He has repeatedly been praised in various areas like Freestyle's, Battling, Features, Disstracks/Beefs, His work with his groups (D12 & BME), speed, 1000 flows, storytelling and as a top tier technical lyrist. When ppl talk sales they like to forget he outsold Every artist from Every genre in the 21st century. His catalog is still one of the most consumed in the world because his music connects.
He still lost the battle to Everlast..lol
I love how articulate this entire channel is.
Love your videos.
Eminem will never be the goat cuz he's already the rap god. He's got nothing more to prove
if Eminem was black he would be called skittles
The Real Mexican Rapper I’m dead
The Real Mexican Rapper you ruined it.
The Real Mexican Rapper no he would be called Reese’s Pieces
I don't get it
If Em were black , he'd be the next Muhammad Ali ...- RAKIM
I want that artwork you got back there!
Where can I get that artwork behind him? Daaaamn. Or even just the image?
He's humble. thats why he doesnt say he's the GOAT. And I dont think that reason is a reason at all for excluding him from being the GOAT. You dont achieve a title like that by calling your own self that. Its the opinions of others that decide who's the GOAT. Im not making any claims myself but Im pretty sure most would consider eminem the GOAT. You can't show me one rapper who doesnt respect eminem's extreme talent. If they dont they're most likely hating. He's receive more appraisal than just about any other rapper that I know of.
Yeah i was just about to say that. He made GOAT in 2007 when kanye west and lil wayne were huge but during this year Em was heavily on drugs and couldnt make a good song for the life of him. In his 2010 song talking to myself he claims that he wanted to diss kanye and wayne because he was jealous of them and their success. His song GOAT was purely made out of jealousy and from being insecure. Just the truth. Not hating though, eminem is no doubt in my mind the best mc to touch the mic.
I saw that interview too! Well put.
I think everybody has two personas in life. You have your work persona and who you really are, because fact is that most people wouldn't be working at the places they work at if they didn't wear some kinda facade to work masking who they are.
On the mic Em's ready to kill it every time. When he's not working... he's humble as fuck. I think he has a strong sense of loyalty to the game and those close to him; including those he looked up to growing up. I love it when he always compliments the veterans and shows his respect.
Every great athlete thought/think they're the best during their time, I think the difference between some is they let that go to their head and their work persona becomes their life persona. Having the ability to disassociate oneself between the two 'personas' is what I think Em is able to do very well, which leads to his humbleness. I mean... how annoying would it be if Em had a comparable persona to that of Mayweather...?
DanGotBars lol I actually like GOAT, it was a good song
DanGotBars Tupac has gotten more praise than em even biggie not to mention others like Nas and Jay Z really not hating on em but you make it sound like he's the only one he's far from it
SmokeyTheBear 7 those guys have received tons of praise yes but i think em tops them.
Eminem has said many times he considers Redman and Andre 3000 the GOAT
On evil twin, he removes them from the top 4
when redman was on shady 45 radio he sang a different story. He was praising redman,go check that out
Already did. Its a major part of our Redman: The Greatest Rapper Of All Time video. Go Check It Out.
***** already did
yea,andre 300 really?Reman,both legendary but goat?But everyone is welcome to have their opinion
2pac the face of hip hop GOAT there wil be no one better than 2pac
THE GOAT HANDZ DOWN...!!!
I LIKE TO GET INTO THE BEST OF A CERTAIN DEMOGRAPHIC BEFORE EMINEM CAME ALONG I LISTENED TO TUPAC AND MY FAVORITE BONE THUG WAS BIZZY BONE... ANYBODY WHO'S LYRICS HIT MY MIND AND SOUL LIKE TO TUPAC OR RAPPED AZ FAST AZ BIZZY DID & WAZ ACTUALLY SAYING SOMETHING FOR ME WAS WORTH SITTING BACK WITH MY STEREO OR HEADPHONES ALL THE WAY UP WITH MY FINGER ON THE REWIND BUTTON SO I COULD DECIFER THE THE LYRICS SO I COULD REALLY UNDERSTAND AND FEEL IT LATER WHEN I SING ALONG LATER TRYING TO SOUND LIKE THA RAPPER ON THE TRACK...
I HAVE DONE THAT SAME THING TO EVERY EMINEM SONG FROM THE BEGINNING & TO ME NOTHING COMES CLOSE... AZ A HARD CORE BIZZY BONE IT'S BEEN TRICKY FOR ME TO SAY UNTIL THE LAST 2 ALBUMS EMINEM HAZ DROPPED...
THE GOAT IS EMINEM....!!!!!
Hey bro those paintings or pictures on the wall are sweet. where'd u get them??
That's an artist named Dale Edwin Murray.
Series is called DEM Hip Hop Heads.

Em is technically the greatest of all time, without question.
I don't wanna hear "MF Doom" this, "Lupe Fiasco" that. Nah, bar for bar, Em is the most complex rapper of ALL TIME. Period.
in what way is Eminem more complex than mf doom?
MF doom is way better than em in my opinion
Em has waaaaayy to much horrible songs to be considered the greatest. multiple terrible albums as well
Bad albums ? I don't see any bad albums
ImVxpour wooow. If you dont see any bad eminem albums, then you are truely bias. Most of you people never even listened to rap until you seen a white boy that you can relate too. Meaning that you arent a hip hop fan, you are a eminem fan. Every album except marshall mathers LP (which was a classic), and maybe the eminem show which was so so,was bad. you are extremely bias
His dedication to word scheme is always understated. He, at least, is able to claim GOAT status in that area (at least out of all the rappers to get big).
I was introduced to rap through Eminem, and today has been 6-7 years since. Ive discovered tons of new rap from old-school new-school “your neighborhood mixtape god” school Ive listened to it all. Still my opinion hasnt changed, he is still the most lyrical, technical to ever be on a mic. His new shit may not be as good but you have to give it to the guy, he’s at least in top 5 right now and there’s no changing that.
