    Overrated doesn't mean bad because 5 of the 6 are elite rap artists

    Mine are:

    1. Lupe(ive seen him overrated time and time again despite not being highly consistent enough as a lyricist/artist, still a good artist)
    2. Jay(this one is obvious, more duds than quality and most of his stans don't even listen to him. )
    3. Canibus (one of the most overrated lyricists of all time)
    4. Eminem(inconsistent discography, too many duds)
    5. Raekwon/Wayne(tie, both inconsistent af but dope af)

    Jay
    Eminem
    Nicki, most of her verses are about her a--- the only one I've heard that was good was the one on Monster
    Big Sean
    Gucci Mane but I still fw him

    Possibly Lil Wayne he's really hit or miss imo

    Honestly the only reason he's still hyped up is because he's white, all his stans are white. He's the white man's champ even though he sucks a--- now.

    You don't see rappers from the 90s that were amazing but s--- now with a giant fanbase of stans.

    That's definitely a part of it, and that a good majority of his fans are from places where the only rap they hear regularly is him.

    Any other rapper given Eminem's career outline you would say their name today and people would be like "who? He still make music?"

    Nah nah Jay Z and Lil Wayne been rapping since the 90s and I dont believe in that white privilege bs, his fanbase has become gigantic because he has been really poppy since Recovery with 3 of his biggest hits. And dont forget When I'm Gone he maked that goat track after Encort and that s--- f--- in the a--- some albums of your so appreciated irrelevant rappers

    Big Sean is the Fabolous of this era, overrated af for being "underrated"

    Eminem is too easy of an answer he's objectively the most overrated rapper of all time
