    Eminem had his first three albums and no matter what revisionist writing there is, "oh actually it didn't age well, actually it's really bad", they are still hall of fame albums at the end of the day. They had everyone bleaching their hair, trying to dress like Eminem, live like Eminem, everything. A massive, massive echo.

    None of the s--- he's put out since -- that's nearly 20 years -- has had that impact or is really remembered by most people.

    If I'd go out on the street and ask someone about MMLP2 or Revival, they would not know what I am talking about. None of them are still in conversation, outside of ex-USSR countries.

    Kanye's had College Dropout, Graduation, 808s, Dark Fantasy, Watch The Throne, Yeezus, Pablo, and Donda, albums that people will & have not shut up about, and are all leagues better and more interesting than even Eminem's best albums.

    Creatively, this guy is constantly said to be the McCartney, Wilson, MJ, Prince of hip hop & pop. I have never once heard Eminem mentioned in the same vain.

    I love

    MBDTF, Graduation, 808s, Yeezus, WTT & KSG

    SSLP, MMLP, Devil's Night, TES, Relapse, Recovery, h---:The Sequel & Side B

    So yeah, Em. Kanye's first two albums have songs that I love but I never really go back to his early stuff

    Not everyone like mbdtf, the reason i didnt mention it right now though, is because im gonna give it another chance when i get to that album on my reviews, knowing it’s his most popular album. In my memory thou, it’s an avarage album, but way better than everything he released after it

    Em lost popularity since MMLP2 days, but Ye also has been overrated since he became lazy. People are trying to keep him up there but his music started to be weak with TLOP, now he just a glorified Khaled even if it hurts saying it.

    Donda is as big as it is because of the events and being a Kardashian lol. Cause the project isn't great at all.

    Both goats, but I think Em's quality is slowly going up again, while Kanye's went downhill.

    Why is albumcover to mbdtf so terrible?
    ”Lets make a disgusting albumcover. So disgusting it’s actually pointless, cause we have to censor it. Now it’s a picture we cant even see what it is, so lets do third edition with a random cartoongirl drinking something. Makes sense. And lets use these pointless covers on the album that is supposedly the best album kanye has made and later would be named the best hiphopalbum of the 2010 decade..

    Not at all, y’all can have your preference, who really cares. But hip hop is an American culture first and foremost, so when’s it’s spoken about who’s the best; who’s running the game; all that s---. The answer lies in the culture over here and that’s just facts

    bro, I know you came up on Em and so did I. It was a right of passage as people of our generation, I’ll be the first to say he’s the reason I love rap music and was the first artist I stanned, I downloaded every song of his I could find.

    but it’s just facts in 2021, Kanye > Em. When it comes to discography

    In 2021 as in only 2021 and not other recent years? Sure because Em hasn’t dropped an album this year. If we’re talking recent years altogether? Is Ye or JIK better than MTBMB? I don’t think so lol. Wouldn’t even say they’re better than kami

    Eminem’s Highs are much higher but Kanye has consistently had more better albums. Ems got 3 good albums. Kanye’s got more than that.

    You said “in 2021” idk what 2004 has to do with 2021. I assumed you meant their actual most recent projects. Because I don’t see how ye’s last 3 albums are much better than Em’s. But if you meant it as in all time then sure whatever.

    Do i really have to live in america to have knowledge or understanding about hiphop culture? I know it very well, been listening to it since mid 90s and there are several great rappers from america i have listened to since then.. why is it so hard for kanyestans to realize not everyone likes his s-----y music.

    I feel you, the 1st artist I remember stanning was 50. I do think Eminem's recent work is better than both JIK and Donda (although I do need more time with Donda), Kanye for sure has the better discography overall. You could argue Eminem had the higher peak, but Ye's consistency throughout his career is pretty remarkable.
