When was the last time you saw a black dude givin Em CRAZY props??... I'm almost positive I'm around more Ns than YOU... And I can def tell you, cats aint been *#+%** with Em for a while... !##% my white homeboys gave up on him a WHILE ago...
Its usually just some (white) internet creep givin him crazy props...
@ American Gangster being "half decent"
But I'm sure you thought Recovery was dope tho...
YOU right... Racism is a TERRIBLE thing

I don't really understand the whole "black people don't listen to em" argument. So? Does that mean he sucks because the black people you know don't listen to him? Since when is the black community the only ones that can rate hip-hop albums. And its proven that middle-upper class whites are the ones that buy the most rap albums. So if you want to make a lot of many as far as selling albums is concerned it would be in your best interest to appeal to that demographic. That's why Wayne and Drake actually move albums while Distant Relatives and Reflection Eternal won't see half those sales.Originally Posted by Harlem On The Rise

Music is 100% subjective so its cool and all that you personally aren't an Em fan. And if you don't think MMLP was a classic that's fine but i don't think American Gangster, or Kingdom Come or even Vol 3 was a classic. All just a difference of opinion.
FTR im 22 i was there when mase thought he was doing it. Harlem World was a mediocre album thats all dude ever did. But i was kidding i have no real problem with mase lol

I think people just say Illmatic wasnt a classic and AG is garbage for the attention. Thats the only resolution I can come up with..

Buying the MOST rap, and listenin to the MOST are 2 different things... Of course everyone knows white kids are the ones buyin this %!!#, thats why %!!# like Eminem will ALWAYS sell and REAL %!!# like Distant Relatives won't... The last thing white people wanna hear is blacks telling one another "Africa Must Wake Up"... But as soon as we wanna sell drugs to one another, shoot up %!!#, and party in the clubs, yall in the stores coppin...

MMLP is dude's only classic followed by 2 very good albums. INFINITE was a lyrical powerhouse but the production was awful (besides the infinite track itself)

I know the point he's trying to make, but he's just stating generalizations.
How does he know what I want to hear?
I mean, he said himself that he was buying Relapse, and I don't think he's a white kid.

I was talking to my boys and their deliveries are similar and it makes that song sound real good. Some real @$%$ is being said on that one.

I am white and I do not relisten to Em albums because I am not easily shocked anymore. Em has an amazing gift with words, but if it does not sound good to someone's ears, why listen?

at Ross being amongst the best rappers alive right now.

He makes good music, but shouldn't be mentioned with that list of 5.
Put Lupe on there too.
