[@n2k970]

he is 100% not the greatest lyricist of all time rap was already global before even infinite came out (public enemy was doing international tours in the 80s) ill give you inspiration, but lauryn hill inspired some of the biggest and greatest artists not only in rap but in r&b and pop as well. not to mention saying “most people don’t listen to her” is foolish, she rarely put out music to promote messages instead of self indulge in fame. also, i can assure you 95% of people’s opinions on eminem aren’t changed much by the fact that he’s white. all this being said, em is still a legendary mc, but acting like he’s some sort of hip hop god and that #80 is offensive is just lame
