Well this thread is pretty much over anyway. Eminem is not gonna get a classic, so we might as well discuss other things.

Redman top 5 pen game OAT?

MMLP is a shoe in IMO, it's not flawless, non-skip but it had it's moment...hell hist first 3 joints kinda had their moment, but MMLP was that peak popularity wise and creatively. I voted yes on TES but that's borderline, but again it was a spectacle and didn't show any drop off of momentum from MMLP while still managing to sound quite different. You ask most Eminem fans what's their favorite album and you may never get them to agree, shyt some people will swear by infinite, I think that's a good sign.

Personally, I wouldn't call it classic BUT Relapse should have at least been on this list. I'd actually say just off the production package and cohesion I will listen to that before I will TES. It actually could have been a classic with a few small, common sense tweaks, and is wild underrated IMO.

Let's discuss why its right that the geto boys are considered in a different stratosphere to eminem.

I don't think the Geto Boys as a group are significantly better than Em tbh

Scarface tho....definitely

Mmlp and tes are his classics. Production wise and skill wise. Sslp sounds dated in many areas and some of those tracks are way too corny even for Eminem. Tes is borderline but I'll give it him cuz I'm feeling nice today. Rest of his catalogs including relapse :camby:

West Philly aka Illadelf aka Tha 215
Wiggaz & c00ns still pretending Moonshine Mathers aka Rass Kasper aka Remy Mayonnaise aka LL Cac J aka Trailer Park Thoughts aka Bologna Rhymes aka Masta Albino aka Saltine Doggy Dogg has anything even remotely approaching a classic?

With them god awful suicidal depression beats, lyrical miracle meth addict spiritual bars, & horrible fast food music tailor-made for pathetic sambos & middle America crackers thirsting for a white angst savior who vocalized their serial killer wet dreams & incestous rape fantasies?

fukk a classic. That wack ass wigga only has one great (4/5) album to his name (TES). Outside of that he's most famous for being lyrically humiliated by our Flow Lord and Lyrical Savior Hova Da Gawd on his own shyt (Camel haters hate when u acknowledge that Renegade was originally an Em song, thus making Nas Lost's Ether claims even more retarded).

I used to think there was something clever about eminem, then he made a bunch of albums to try and replicate his older work and demonstrated a complete lack of understanding of what was good. Hence its clear to me, he fluked it. All he can do is rhyme words. Geto Boys put the South on the hip hop map. There are levels between them.
