    I'm old. I've lived through both eras. Eminem was in a different stratosphere than Drake ever will be. There's no discussion.

    Out of curiosity (I was old enough for the Eminem era, caught most of Jay Z era) was there anyone before em you would say came close in terms of popularity?

    It really doesn't hurt "me" (A former Huge Eminem Aficionado, mind you.) to have to realize and accept that Eminem in his prime was pretty much a music superstar and the type of notoriety he garnered in his prime is both unprecedented and rarely duplicated or even properly emulated. I might like and prefer Drake music more right now, but I'm not blind. And Em has the upper-hand advantage for a few reasons. Let's not ignore that those factors have aided in facilitating his success, regardless of how controversial and polarizing he could be in his Mid-To-Late-20's.

    Tupac in 96, DMX in 98-99 were the closest. I think.

    Actually you know what 50 Cent in the late 2002/first half of 2003 was the second biggest thing I've ever seen in my life.

    He sold more than them you idiot. You are thick as s---. The guy was the biggest musician on the planet accept it. He was played on radio nonstop here and I'm in Australia. MMLP was until last year the fastest selling album of oat with 1.7 million in a week. Just stop man.

    Broh,2010 Eminem is probably as or even more popular than Drake(Recovery best selling hip-hop albuk of the decade), 00-03 is one of the biggest acts in music history in terms of popularity.

    He didn't sell more, he sold more in the 2000 decade. Britney and nsync sold much more than em pre-2000. That's theonpy reason you think em sold more? The record you are talking about, the 1.7 in a week l, is for a SOLO ARTIST. nsync acrually sold 2mil in tgeir first week. Do some reading. Anyway I am talking about RADIO lmao

    And what about your 1.7 mil you're pushing? It means nothing since nsync sold a lot more.
