Nemo Posted April 7 Share Posted April 7 there are many male rap legends, as it's a male-dominated genre. but none have come close to the globality and heights of success as eminem (fun fact: he is the highest-selling artist to debut after madonna @Rap God). why is this? and i don't want to hear that it's because he's white.

Gorjesspazze9 Posted April 7 Share Posted April 7 Marshall hates when people try to label him that. He has said multiple times that he would never call himself King of rap. He is however the most successful, Longest Lasting Mainstream rapper who is consistent at pushing his pen. Most notable lyricist don’t have half the catalogue or longevity. Nearly 50 and he is still out rapping his competition. Hiphop legends, top tier MC’s and Veteran Battle rappers still acknowledged it. Arguably the best 3 album Run in Rap history and has Generation-defining hit singles. 20 years later and his craft has only gotten better. Rap God is actually his response to this topic, and how he pokes fun at the thought of everyone calling themselves king of this or that. Link to post Share on other sites

Chaos Angel Posted April 7 Share Posted April 7 He’s the most successful but he’s not the “king of rap” That’s Kendrick (or at least it will be with his next album). The only other options are André 3000, Jay-Z, or Nas. I would say Eminem is in the lower half of the top 10 skill+discography wise, which is still great. Link to post Share on other sites

MrDog Posted April 7 Share Posted April 7 Why people make threads not knowing anything about the discussed topics? Lil Wayne is the rightful king, he has the credibility from both sides. Nas is coming second (very close). Link to post Share on other sites

If you take into account that he's the only white rapper with a multi platinum album in US since 1999 the "only because is white" excuse is funny. Link to post Share on other sites
SLIME Posted April 7 Share Posted April 7 So close that would be Lil Wayne! 💕But I think you have to acknowledge he's a top tenner. Like him or not Link to post Share on other sites
