Worry I'm not Mike Jordan
Of the mic recording
Hovi’ baby you Kobe, maybe Tracy McGrady
Matter fact you Harold Miner, J.R. Rider
Washed up on marijuana
Even worse, you a Pervis Ellis
You worthless fella
You ain't no athlete, you Shawn Bradley

[Rattle1]

Cole shouldn't be on the list, not yet, and did he really forget to talk about Nas ?

[PAINKILLƎR]

Cole shouldn't be on the list, not yet, and did he really forget to talk about Nas ?

Why can't he? He can compare himself with current players, nothing wrong with that.

lol @ Drake being LeBron.

If you want a truthful perspective on Drake, see: DMX video on him.

I'd say Em is more like MJ too... Jay-Z doesn't fit that I don't think... as he's not like WOW AMAZING; he can make some great music and be a great MC but nothing he's done is like OMG GENIUS, where as Em has / is consistently that, even if he's not on top form, it's weirdly unique / original...

Em is MJ because they're both like, the most naturalistic and awe-inspiring who ever did it. It's like they were born to do it.

Drake shouldn't be mentioned. He's a cheerleader.

I have accepted the fact that Eminem will forever and always be the undredog, the one that people will always complement but never appreciate.

That's why I don't bother discussing those things anymore, it just won't change.

That's true. People go on about 'he's overrated' all the time... like fuck.

He's mentioned because people know they HAVE to mention him, but he's actually underrated because nobody wants to feel like a dick sucker or that they ARE overrating him.

You couldn't name one song by any other goat that's half as genius as Em's top tracks.

"Stan"? are you kidding me. The voice acting and realism alone >> it's another level of artistry.

"Lose Yourself" is like MJ dunking, like 'holy shit', only he could do that. Even Nas' or Jay's best songs, none they've done are literally SO back to front near-perfection with almost every line, the rhyme complexity, the consistency, the gusto... just everything at once.

Let's not forget how fucking memorable practically all of Shaq's press conferences were.

He even kicked a freestyle in front of the team at the reception when the mighty Lakers won it for the second time in a row!

I swear I remember Shaq saying in a press conference he personally told Kobe he was his favorite player too... then the journalists laughed & then he said he wasn't kidding at all.
Things went horribly wrong from there on & a few years after that when Shaq won it with Miami there was that freeby... Kobe tell me how my ass tastes though.

[Fleka]

Em like James because of his versatility.

[Just Silver]

Shaq is offenseless

[eXceL]

^ yea that must be why he averaged 30 something points per game

[Francesco]

Eminem = Wayne Gretzky
A record that will never be touched

I definitely agree with that!

[*ShadyHouse*]

I would've compared Em to Kobe tbh

[BlueberryWun]

Em definitley would be the Micheal Jordan of Hip Hop. Just based on achievment/sucess, all round diversity, longevity and because he trancesnded Hip Hop
