Me and my friend had a heated argument about this. I'm a fan of both and think they are both great. People hate on Kanye because of what he did to Taylor Swift and forget about the talent he really has. If I had to choose who is better I'd go with Eminem. People hate of Kanye because of the Swift thing and people hate of Em because they say "he's gotten soft". Real Em fans understand why because we know about his best friend Proof getting killed and Ems addiction to drugs. If you look at Em in his prime you could easily say he's one of the best of all time. The albums after The Eminem Show were all just decent except for relapse in my opinion was a little bellow average but that was when he was out of the music businiess for like 4 years so he needed some time to get better. Although people didn't like it but Recovery was a step in the right direction. I think that the next album that Em makes is going to be his best. If people remember about what happen to Nas they will know what I'm talking about. Similar think happen to Nas, people thought he was done and washed up but he bounced back and make Stillmatic which is probably his best album. I love Em and Kanye but Em is better. Again no disrespect to Kanye, dude is a beast and people forget that.

"Real Em fans understand why because we know about his best friend Proof getting killed and Ems addiction to drugs."





Doubt it....i think it has more to do with him being a hypocrite....thats why he's soft...because he's a half-way Sellout....



Nas didn't bounce right back....Jay-Z made his career....Nas would of put out Stillmatic...and nobody would of cared...thats fact...not opinion. I lived through that time...and lived in queens....even queens was saying "Nas is that dude....but Jay got this" before Ether came out....In short...it was more hype than skill that made Nas relevant to the high ranks within genre again....



Kanye is a beast....but his best stuff was co-written by Rhymefest....even with that said you still gotta go with Eminem here...

Eminem knew racism. Black people hated him and theory he can no longer rap. Kanye lives, soaked and breathes racism. Kanye keeps racism alive. era! i'd desire to care the colour of your epidermis. Weasel is what he's!
