Jay-Z or Eminem, who's better overall?

[B-Mint94]

When you compare them discography to discography, Jay has the edge. Both of them have very high highs and pretty terrible lows.

Both of them have very high highs and pretty terrible lows.

jay's lows are nowhere near eminem's last 15 years tho

even kingdom come and blueprint 2 was listenable

Never came out, pretty relevant to how the game is now.

shyt like this is why I love the coli

thanks breh

And to answer OP, they're both pretty close - both top 10. Em was better at his peak but Jay gets the nod because of Em's falloff.

Em was not better at his peak. Jay dropped the blueprint and black album at ems peak.

You can judge people by their albums, singles and Billboard charts but I'm always gonna judge em on their ability to put words together

Blueprint is a personal favorite but Jay never had Em's technical skills.

No one judges music like that. You're not the goat singer just because of range and the gap between them on metaphors and wordplay, etc. is far greater.

Jay of course and this myth about Eminem destroying him on renegade is dum, if anything he slightly ended him. nikkas out here talking like jays verses were duds
