I can't believe this is a question.
August 22 2013 - from Berlin to Paris, 400€ spent just for Eminem. IT WAS WORTH EVERY SINGLE CENT!

He's still an excellent lyricist. Really, the only things that have changed are his voice and his style. And even his voice hasn't changed ALL that much. I have confidence that Em can drop a truly classic album by the time he retires

Came back to annihilate, the game's in dire straights, as I await
Word on Satan, as I drop, fall to my knees before this Quija board and I pray
Now I lay me down to sleep
I do this shit in my sleep, I’m sleepin' now, imagine if I awake

To me? Yes.

But it's kinda unfar because some rappers do stuff better than him, but still. SSLP/MMLP/TES >>>

It would be better to ask who are the 5 best rappers of all time. Would easily be Em, B.I.G., Rakim, Nas & Tupac.

He is my favorite rapper. However, I don't think he is the best ever, at least not yet.

Eminem is my favorite rapper and I wanted to vote for him and he's working towards being the GOAT IMO but I voted for Biggie Smalls. Ready to Die was a hell of an album and Biggie was dope as hell. All a matter of opinion though.

I voted yes, because im a Stan, but im not one that will not criticise him. However i can't see anyone comparable with him, he has ranges of subject matter and manages to execute them lyrically perfect. I suppose 2pac is the only other rapper i would consider, but for me its Eminem.

It's idiotic even to think that sales aren't important.
All the greats Eminem,LL Cool J,Rakim & Eric.B,Nas,Jay-Z,Tupac,Biggie have a lot of sales and this is a big parameter to be in the Top-10 ever.
Sales=Success.
To be the greatest you must have it all.Impact,Sales,Skills,Classic albums,Popularity.
Eminem has it all to a greater extend than anyone and that's why he is the GOAT.

Can't decide between the two.

@SatansAngel
You opened a thread Em's classics vs Pac's classics with no points.
Just trolling.
If you believe that Pac is the GOAT then you kidding yourself.
How old are you and consider Pac the GOAT?
At Pac's peak most Hip-Hop people considered Big Daddy the greatest.Pac considered GOAT after his death.Reality!
Eminem considered GOAT alive.After the Eminem Show a lot of people considered Em the greatest ever.

I'm old enough to remember everything.Youngsters like you consider Pac the GOAT because he was a rebel.But his impact wasn't bigger than Em's.

Eminem is the most important Rapper in Hip-Hop history.Made people all over the world to love Hip-Hop and not only in USA.

Tupac had a big impact only in the USA.Eminem has a big impact all over the world.

And at Skills you know and any Tupac homer that Em destroy him.

Pac was great because he was rebel but this doesn't make him the complete package like Eminem.

And as about the albums...Em's MMLP and Biggie's Life After Death are better than any Tupac's album.

I don't even know where to begin with you. Tupac was much more powerful than Biggie and Em is more entertaining I'll give you that. But I don't LEARN anything from listening to Eminem. His music annoys me sometimes. I want intelligent music......

You sir have earned yourself a.....

AND LEARN from listening to Tupac??Hysterical!
You learn a lot if you listen Big Daddy,Rakim-Eric.B,Eminem.Miles away from Pac all of them.
But you know you are a young fan who don't know anything about Hip-Hop.
Just waste your time to trolling.
NO POINTS!

P.S.Go now to listen Soulja Boy.You will learn from him!
