If You Have A Problem With How Eminem Raps, You Should Feel the Same About Talib

Honestly Eminem is more in pocket than Talib is. Em doesn't fall off the beat nearly as much as Talib does. So I don't have a rebuttal for the "cramming a lot of words in a bar" argument. I prefer Em's flow more, but his content is largely unlistenable, and I don't like his choice of beats. I like Kweli's content & beats a bit more. Neither guy has a good rapping voice, but to me Em's voice is worse.
They have great rapping voices, bro.

You saw that too? He's one of the most self loathing people here.
i could give you an entire month and you wouldnt be able to find a single post of me saying that. stop with the lies man. I say music on mainstream radio by white artists never glorifies murder, dope selling,etc like urban music does. Am i wrong?

It might be unpopular to acknowledge but Talib Kweli can't rap on beat for shyt.

A couple of honest, unbiased posters in here. Im not a Talib hater at all. He's one of the nicest lyricist ive ever heard but dude falls off the beat ALOT. and he crams alot of words into his bars to the point where it sounds like he's trying to "catch up" to the beat. Yall hate when EM does it but Talib does it more.

Ive NEVER posted a white rapper saying that. :dwillhuh: Thats a straight-up boldfaced lie:pachaha:

and you had the nerve to say "STAY posting":wow:
:pachaha: I ain't gonna lie, I exaggerated, I've only seen you say that specifically one time, but I know you said it :francis: It was some corny no-name white rapper, I think the name had "dope" in it. Obviously you ain't gonna help me find it :francis: But I know for a fact you posted it and praised it for it's positivity compared to music from black rappers.

Then the fact that you're one of Eminem's biggest supports on The Coli, and when a black rapper DOES make a positive song you claim he's selling out, it's easy to look at these threads like :patrice:

motherfukkers is exposing themselves because if u don't rap or do research about rap techniques don't have no credibilty to me to talk about music.

because motherfukkers don't know how to count bars or know time signatures or bar measures and it's obvious because all talib kweli is rap on beat.

Don't bro me, I'm not white.

On what planet does Em have a good voice? Remember we didn't even hear Em until he was like 25. What grown men you know have voices like his? It would be pretty difficult to walk into a room full of strangers and get respect sounding like that. His talent is the way that he puts rhyming words together. In terms of just putting a high volume of coherent rhyming syllables and words together while staying on beat, Em may be the best ever.
Talib's voice isn't as bad, but he sounds straight childish going back to back with Mos.

Besides, you have EJ Manuel in your avi, I can't trust your opinion.

preciate the honesty man. Hate when cats straight up lie about stuff. I dont even listen to any white rappers besides Eminem so that definantly wasn't me. I have 6800 posts here on the coli, no more than 20 of those posts have been dedicated to Eminem . Ive barely talked about Eminem my entire time on The Coli, so that makes me "one of Eminem's biggest supporters on The Coli":mjlol:. I think Eminem is a highly talented lyricist. One of the best to ever pick up a mic. Yes i do. If that makes me a "c00n" so be it:manny:. And ive NEVER claimed a black rapper was a "sellout" for making a positive song:mindblown: Where are you getting this from!!!! Dog you got me confused with another poster:dead:.
