    I don't think Future Thug or Drake have released an album as good as Cheers by Obie Trice and that didn't even make much noise when it came out. I've tried to enjoy Future but that auto tune intolerable.

    Kevin Gates is good tho

    As for Marshall he's our generation's Mozart or Picasso I don't think you can honestly say he's over rated.

    People actually think like this? Wtf. bro. Nah. They're try-hard trolls. I'm not buying that they sincerely hold these preposterously implausible sentiments about this overrated f---. Zaytoven is our generation's Beethoven. But that other s--- you just said, you should chop your fingers off for that exaggeration.

    But
    ^^^^^^^^^^

    This agree with u he definitely is our generations Mozart, Picasso, Beatles, Prince


    It's just a common opinion his fans have and this not even a diss but @Jay Zeus but for u to get so angry, immature and act so weird over Eminem fans opinion on him being this generations Mozart or Picasso. This shows Eminem, his fans and most people in the world who do consider Eminem the best artist hold so much power over u to get so angry over a common opinion from Eminem fans


    That's sad when it would be better to just act mature and respect others opinion even if u disagree with it

    No I believe he is as do most people who are fans

    He makes music I enjoy more than any other artist if we talking albums like The Eminem Show, Recovery, MMLP 2 records like Beautiful, The Real Slim Shady, Mockingbird. So me enjoying these projects and records more than any other artist from any other genre. Is because of Eminem's song writing

    But I know he definitely is not top 15 rapper I can admit this no need to lie and pretend he

    But he makes things I enjoy in music the best such as hooks and songs overall songs

    These posts and trolling is so r-----ed

    I do like Call Of Duty but I like Fifa more

    I don't yell at kids

    I don't and never ever have drank Mountain Dew I drink Hennessey, Ciroc, and Alize

    And I don't consider myself a stan because I have always admitted h--- The Sequel, Relapse and Infinite are terrible albums. His featured verses are terrible

    But this song is about loving his family

    Love songs dedicated to his daughter and how much she means to him and the struggles of parenting







    Love song dedicated to his mother and how much she means to him after all they been through



    Love songs dedicated to his ex wife and how much he loves her even after all they been through like divorcee














    These songs are the complete opposite to 'edgy' as u can get












    So u can fool yourself with the trolling but u can't fool the rest of the world

    Not to mention the type of songs u describe I dislike but love these songs and songs like this

    Your average Eminem fans likes and listen to and is a fan of his because of a song like Mockinbird. This was a top 10 hit more successful than any 'edgy' song

    Eminem is the most overrated because his super fans make his casual fans hate him.

    NO CHANCE.

    If anything he's one of the most underrated - he's overrated in terms of infatuation by some who maybe don't even understand half of his s--- - sure. But all of his credit is valid & more, and almost as a response to that infatuation / fan girls, he gets sh---ed on by hip-hop too.

    But he's not rated nearly enough for how impressive his thinking is at his best. How amazing his writing is. Not nearly enough, and given all that he's capable of - from storytelling, to politics, to introspection, to straight rap-about-rap, to inspiration... And he does each one of these things (at his best, again) amazingly well.

    That's just topics & lyricism, not even getting in to the 10,000 incredible styles he's invented, mastered, and the levels he's taken vocal performance to in rap. His intensity, the clarity and the energy... Like nothing before. As Sean Heaney once referred to his 'verbal energy'. He can be as powerful as like a proper voice artist, and convincingly enforce so many emotions and make things so dramatic.

    Given how many layers of talents he's got, and the levels he's taken rap to and evolved it... in so many directions... he rarely gets any of the praise deserved. MMLP is a pure masterpiece, and one of the most clever, powerful concept albums ever made. Yet even when it gets mentioned, Jay-Z or Kanye's s--- gets mentioned as if it's better (lel), their simplistic attempts in comparison. It just gets mentioned like 'oh yeah, that was a good one'.

    Which brings me to my next point,

    I'm a big fan of Kanye. But in response to this title - NO - KANYE is THEEEEEE most overrated rapper (by a country mile) and potentially artist ever. I think he's actually sold the critics on his self-praise. The amount of praise he gets like 'OMG ON THIS ALBUM HE ATTEMPTED TO ANALYSE HIMSELF A BIT, AND SAY SOMETHING ABOUT HIS FAME... AND HE PUT SOME STRINGS ON IT. THIS IS GROUNDBREAKING!!', it's completely absurd and out-of-whack with what he actually creates.

    And this is why serious poets & intellectuals are not praising Kanye like they did / do Eminem, as a writer and a thinker. I think Ye's greatest s--- will be looked back on like 'oh, that was cool, and he had an impact... but wow we were blinded. It's not that great', and Em's greatest s--- will be looked back on like 'wow, that guy was unreal'.

    Lol bro you ok??

    You sound like really pissed off that people rate em and you don't? lol.


    These threads always make me laugh man. Holding picket signs to protest someone who you apparently think sucks, yet you're willing to put that much the energy and time into trying to convince other people to jump on your bandwagon? lol.

    You're stanning fam. You're just as bad if not worse.

    Let it go.

    Go listen to all your favourite artists man and forget Marshall ever existed if it makes you feel better.

    What I can never work out is??? why you people all so mad?

    I don't like Drake much. never have. I don't hate him though neither. It just is what it is. I aint about to waste me energy trying to drum up support for my own opinion. What's the point??

    lol.

    People gon like what they like. You bitching aint gonna change s---.



    I feel sorry for you people that you can't just seem continue living your lives without all this irrational animosity.

    You peoples infatuation with hating someone is borderline more disturbing that those that are lifelong stans TBH. Your'e just as obsessed. lol.
