So were alot of other people. Yeah he had hits and sold records, but during that run Em dropped MMLP, Nelly Country Grammer, and so many others sold crazy records you could argue that a bunch had a bigger run than him during the same time

50's buzz has yet to have been topped by anyone in the industry. Period.

Crazy that I haven't seen that many Eminem posts here. His buzz was off the charts. He had the type of buzz that had soccer moms in middle america talking about him. Not to mention he put out two diamond albums in a 3 year span, a very successful movie and critical success to go along with it. You guys remember when he murked Jay-Z on "Renegade?" He was not only a great white rapper but he also brought alot of controversy due to his lyrics and opinions on gays. Being affiliated with Dre only seals the deal. Eminem HAS to be No. 1.

I STRONGLY DISAGREE.
You mean Snoop Doggy Dogg's buzz has yet to have been topped by anyone in the industry. Period.
50 Cent ranks directly below Snoop, and that's not discrediting 50 by any means. Doggy Dogg took the world
by storm. From his start, not only was he the sole face of Death Row Records, he was the sole face of
gangsta rap. What's undeniable was the fact that he had no mixtape, no album, nor did he have a solo
song to garner this tremendous buzz. You really had to live in that area to fully understand. Doggy Dogg's start
was/ is the biggest buzz hip hop has ever seen. Ever.
It all started from this one line right here.
Cause it's 1-8-7 on an undercover cop!

In your most humble opinion who out of the "elite" tier of rappers throughout the Rap game still has a significant impact right now in 2014? Present day, **** album sales just off the strength of quality of work and they're position within the industry of which they earned.

Jay. That's pretty much it to me.
I think people grossly exaggerate "impact" and "influence" when it comes to certain artists.
Jay showing these dudes what they can do around the music, and even his deal with Samsung etc, is on another level.
My understanding is that him and his team also quarterbacked the Beyonce album release. Columbia was brought in at the last minute, but they had already recorded the music, filmed the videos and set up the strategy.
Dude is on another level in that respect. "Quality of work" you could argue (Might be Kendrick or someone like that then).
But I don't think anyone who's still rapping has a higher "position within the industry".

I was only 10 when snoop came on the scene. I do recall him being very popular. Probably some of the first explicit songs that I knew by heart.
