    Lol, the posts in this thread are so black and white (not meant the way some will think it is btw lol)

    'Bad guy > anything kanye wrote lately'

    'I am a god > better than any eminem song post hiatus'


    Etc etc.. smh @ some fans of both. Obviously Kanye's career s----s on eminems.. but imo prime eminem and kanye (who had a prime that's like 80% of his career) are really close.. both amazing

    Good thing consistency is key. Eminem has struggled to make good music for the past decade now. Kanye has put out numerous solid projects in that same time span. Oh & I'm far from a Kanye Stan lol just go back a page or so & read my posts.

    Define "lately." Bad Guy is what? d--- near 2 years old now.

    Uhhh 6 years ago was 2009. I'm guessing you're referring to MBDTF which came out in 2010. I don't even think MBDTF is a great album. With that being said, it's better than anything Eminem has put out post hiatus.

    They have different careers.

    Three months Dec. 2015, 2016 meaning six will be passed since Kanye last great album...yet I still see "Eminem didn't release anything good in a decade"...Ye is getting close too

    i agree, i like both artists but to say the highest selling artist of rap in his prime is worse than ye is a joke.

    mmlp is one of the greatest albums of all time

    Uhhh Watch The Throne? Cruel Summer? Yeezus? None of those projects are bad. Are they great? No but they are solid contributions to his discography. Eminem has put out numerous bad to sub par projects in the past decade (Encore, Relapse, Bad Meets Evil) that's the difference.

    Its high points are great but overall, I wouldn't call it a great project. It's a good album though.

    I think that Em beats Kanye by far both before his break and after. Though, Encore as a whole vs Kanyes today is probably a win for Kanye, even though it had some dope tracks on it.
