Eminem and it's not even close. Kendrick in his prime isn't half as good as Eminem was in his prime. I hate the guy now but there was a time where he literally couldn't release something less than perfect if he tried.

wow at this pool,if eminem was black this wouldnt even be a discussion,alot of racist prick in here riding kendrick cause of his color skin.

eminem stan>>>>> all kendrick discography.

first eminem 3 album(including devils night) is the best streak of classic a single artist had in music history, so proud I was old enough to witness this,didnt appreciate it enough at the time tho, had so many great artists back then, if kendrick was from that time hed be an average at best(kind of a nelly style rapper) and in no way signed to aftermath.

incomparable really. 99-03 Eminem had this unique ability to seamlessly blend commercial/pop appeal and hardcore traditional lyric-centric emceeing. His flow, bet selection, content, hook-writing ability and creativity created quite literally the perfect storm, everything came together at once. Kendrick is close, no doubt (I still think that just from the first few listens that TPAB may very well be a contender for another album of the decade, along with GKMC). but he may there are some things he just will never be able to do as well as Shady.

Yeah but most people including myself like to think that SSLP was his "important" debut, where Eminem finally found himself and showed his personality as a rapper to the world.
