In my book, they both fail.
Let them say we lived in the time of Boxer, Emperor of Terran. Let them say we lived in the time of Nal_rA, Dreamer of Protoss. Let them say we lived in the time of Savior, Master of the Zerg.

Even if you don't like Eminem's lyrics, it's undeniable that he's skilled at rhyming. While it's true that anyone can rap, not anyone can rhyme well. It's difficult to come up with multiple syllable rhymes for each line while remaining coherent. A lot of people who hate rap don't realize that.

Some of his rhymes are quite witty too, like
"Flavor with no seasoning, this is the sneak preview
I'll diss your magazine and still won't get a weak review"

Actually that's a horrible rhyme lol. First of all, it barely if at all makes coherent sense, second of all, it's just plain weak and contrived, and third of all, a fourth grader could rhyme "preview" and "review". AND OMG HE MADE "SNEAK" AND "WEAK" RHYME TOO

True he actually knows how to rap, but his skill is incredibly overhyped.

Try Louis Logic.


This whole "beef" thing between Eminem and Mariah Carey is simply laughable and childish. Does anybody remember 2Pac vs. Biggie? "That's why I fucked your bitch, you fat motherfucker"

There are more things working for those two lines than you mention:
--structurally: they're each made up of a pair of phrases of similar length
--consonance: seasoning/magazine to end the first phrases (backed up by reason / season [different definition from seasoning in this line] / freezing)
--assonance: this/diss/still

The words used to finish a line (and therefore the rhyme) don't need to be unexpected in order to not be weak or contrived. When talking about a specific subject, like he is with the magazine review process, it's nice to end the line with something that is relevant to that subject rather than some random word. It's predictable, but in a good way. It gets the listeners involved so that they can hear the line in anticipation of it ending with the expected word. When you've got other people on the mic, which often happens when people are freestyling on radio shows or on the stage with their group, everyone can't help but say that last word with the guy. Everyone in the crowd is probably doing the same.

The words aren't incorehent at all. The verse is one of self-description, proclaiming how awesome he is. He's just listing things about himself, coming at all different angles. The first phrase of the first line stands alone. It means he is flavorful as he is. He doesn't need anything added to him, like you'd add seasoning to meat, in order to make him palatable. The rest of it is pretty clear if you know how magazine reviews work. The magazines get pre-release previews of albums so that they can write a review that'll be ready for the release of the album. Eminem is saying he can diss the magazine in the preview he sends them and they'll still say it's great.

And I can't believe you'd bring up 2pac/Biggie. Yeah, 2pac's track was probably the best we'll ever hear, but nobody wants people to fucking die over this shit.
"Fucking up is part of it. If you can't fail, you have to always win. And I don't think you can always win." Elliott Smith ---------- Yet no sudden rage darkened his face, and his eyes were calm as they studied her. Then he smiled. 'Witness.'

LOL i am still laughing from Nick Cannon's response to eminem:
Cannon calls Eminem "Slim Lamey" and offers a challenge to him. "Man to man, let's meet up and deal with this like adults," he writes. "This is my invitation to you, whenever and wherever you like sir. So when you come out of your introverted hiding place and ask your bodyguards if you can go out and play by yourself, I'm here Pimp!"

Did he just admit to being with her for 6 months and only nailing her ONCE?


LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL

And he thinks he's hanging shit on HER? hahahaha

eh the other way around.

Well, maybe I don't understand this rap shit, given I don't listen to it...

But I'm pretty sure he says that she made him put up with her bullshit for six months and only opened her legs once. I don't know how else to interpret that other than that he was with her for 6 months and they only had sex once? And if that's the case then the fucking joke's on him not her...


put yourself in nick cannons shoes: would you want people to know that you're girlfriend isn't giving it up to you? i dont know if nick gets it/got it faster than eminem did, but the fact that eminem basically made nick cannon look like a fool because it leaves nick cannon with nothing left to say (which people would assume that he is hiding the fact that mariah carey won't open her legs for him either) OR leaves nick cannon to tell everyone he hit it already (in which would disrespect mariah carey) to save his manliness. Would you wanna be in that position? or would you want to be laughing in eminems position while squirming in laughter b/c he is overwith and done with her/owned her lyrically? eminem also protected himself by manning up and telling everyone anything that mariah carey has on him, so she has no comeback really.. leaves mariah in a state of awe/shock. yeah, i dont think you've been in much drama in life huh? lol

Yes because challenging a poet to a fight when all you do is workout and have mangasms at your own reflection in the mirror make you super tough. Srsly the weakest link always resorts to "omg ur saying smart mean stuff, I punch you pussyface!" Whenever I read someone switching from verbal argument to physical challenge I lose respect for them, not gain it.

Anywho this is all hilarity in my opinion but I honestly can't care about someone's life whom I don't know personally. I do lean towards liking his song but mainly because Mariah trying the fancy cat high class whore routine has never impressed me. She is an amazing singer and looks good but there is just no substance there.

No, he's really not. Those were weak rhymes. Even Mariah had better ones in her song. Those rhymes belong on a G-money or Master P cd. Rhyming preview and review is really really stale.


oh c'mon, how can you say this is weak?

Listen, girly. Surely you don’t want me to talk about how I nutted early cos ejaculated early and bus all over your belly, and you almost started hurling and said I was gross, go get a towel you’re stomachs curling.


most fucking hysterical and cringeworthy line in hip hop this decade.

man, em's no big pun or biggie and use analogies or clever rhymes, but can no ever put up a diss as wicked as em. no one looking for aesthetic values when delivering a diss.

Em is awesome. Any of you nerds saying you wouldnt nail mariah in a second are out of your minds. And his lyrical talent and flow is top notch; I love how people just sit in their towers.
