    Match his record sales, level of success, global popularity, transcend beyond hip-hop into being a pop icon, match his Grammy awards, become as wealthy as him, have as many fans as him around the world?

    Is it too short sighted to just say no?

    A lot of it has to do with his race I'll admit that as well. But a lot of it has to do with his delivery that kinda shocked everyone at first too.

    I can't see anyone surpassing Em's sales and considering how popular Em was in his prime, i can't see anyone surpassing that either but you never know.

    It's not stanning he really is a Pop Icon God

    Stanning or blatent stanning
    Well what i will say is i wasn't a big Eminem fan until The Eminem Show until he started making emotional songs and the whole singing thing. I was a fan initially through My Name Is the song being so catchy drew me in. But when he started making soulful songs with emotion. But still maintaining the slim shady element on some songs that's when i was like wow i'm actually a big fan

    So The Eminem Show is my fave album, MMLP 2 second, MMLP 3rd, Recovery 4th, Slim Shady LP 5th

    As for the music, Adele is bigger than Em now but as for hip hop ain't no way any rapper can top Eminem at all. He will always be the biggest rapper ever.

    Go back to you last 10 threads

    90% are why Eminem is the GOAT.

    wtf is wrong with you, be creative for a bit.

    Half the songs on Encore are great while the other half are weak. The weak songs on there did have really catchy hooks though but u always guaranteed that from Eminem but everything else about them was not good

    The hooks on Relapse are great but everything else was poor besides Beautiful which is 1 of my fave songs ever and Deja Vu and the two bonussongs were great too

    @trivio what is your opinion on haters saying the emotion on a song like Beautiful is 'fake emotion'?
