Paul Rosenberg looks like he should be out collecting debts for bookies and mob bosses.

Kanye should have gotten it. But it's based off of sales and not actually quality. *kanye shrug* and I'm out...

   Don't really think Kanye's body of work matches up to Ems either way.

Quality or Sales, Eminem wins either way. I'm actually glad FOR ONCE the best rapper sold the most. In this lollipop DIY Hip Hop era it's surprising...it shows you that if you make quality *@$+, sooner or later people will start buying. We gonna act like EM was a multi-million selling artist from the get go?

Yeah, exactly. I thought my point was pretty clear from the first post anyway - Kanye's three albums that can actually be considered within the Hip Hop genre don't stack up with Eminems catalogue in quality or in sales. Also, million, yeah, I think people forget how much he had to fight in the underground before he finally hooked up with Dre and started selling. Best rapper ever, nah, I wouldn't support that, but Soundscan artist of the decade doesn't seem like a stretch at all.

I enjoy listening to both of them, but I don't see how, in this particular case (The Soundscan award), or with their respective catalogues, you could take Kanye over Eminem. To each his own, I guess, the award has already been given out anyway.

i'm not talking sale-wise, Em has that in a bag...but quality wise...nahhh...Ye has 3 classics under his belt and changed the game up every time around...Em has been re-hashing the same **@# for the past 10 years plus a couple of not too impressive to flat out wack albums under his belt
