Best overall? Arguable...

Eminem has mad talent but that doesn't make you the best rapper ever.
For example, Mike Vick had the most talent an NFL quarterback could have and he wasn't the best.

^Bad analogy. Vick is fast and has a strong arm but couldn't throw a football through a hoola hoop from across the room
... but besides the analogy,you're absolutely correct.

^Even though Rakim said Em was the best rapper... riiiiiiiight. __s need to stop speaking for other ppl. How do ANY of us know what Jay, Nas, the R, orhell...CHINGY think or whether it's disrespectful or not?

It'd prolly go something like Reggie, Jay-Z, 2pac and Biggie, Andre from Outkast, Jada, Kurupt, Nas, and then him.
And yes, agree with most talent ever (I think the gap is pretty wide), but he's put out too much trash material in Encore...and you know its gotta be badif it outweighs all of the heat he's spit throughout his career.

Basically that there is proof when he's on top of his game he can't be touched. Bar for bar he will obliterate anyone. He has it all. Flow (), delivery, lyrics, punchlines, metaphors, storytelling, etc; but he just doesn't use it for the right reasons (making those corny songs). You want me to down it down anymore for you?
So basically as I have stated many times before in regards to Eminem, he's the Vince Carter of rap. Talent for days but never really focusedenough to channel it properly or even better yet in the right direction, which leaves him with no championships. You call sometime with that outline thegreatest rapper of all time??

^That's a flawed argument over a flawed outline.

Forget the tracks champ. You can't put any Eminem album in a Top 25 list, how bout that. Just about any Joe Schmo can make a hot 16, forget that,give me something that will last a little bit longer, give me a classic album, or better yet, give me a flawless album. Easier said than done. Talent wiseEminem is better than Common, but I would take a Common album over an Emimen album.

So it's INCONCEIVABLE that a top 10 artist from your list could be somebody else's number 1? You think that there is such a HUGE gap between your #10and your #1 that you couldn't POSSIBLY imagine Eminem ANYWHERE near the top of your list, let alone say... at the top of somebody else's list?Let me get this all the way straight... YOU MEAN TO TELL ME...out of the thousands of rappers -- past, present, and, future.... ahh !$*@ it...

Unlike most of NT, I agree with the thread starter. I'm not his biggest fan, but I do think he outshines even my favorite emcee. (Jay)

Top 15 to me. If he puts out another great album, he might move up.

He has no classic albums
He has very dope @ the beginning of his career but he got worst as time went. So on that note i rank him maybe top 25, some somewhere between 15-25
