What is your definition of critically acclaimed? Because his earlier albums most definitely got strong reviews. He won the best rap album Grammy more times than anyone else. And is easily the highest selling rapper ever.
None of that mean anything to me far as where I'm ranking him myself, but yall obsessed with these "objective" measures which actually not objective at all.
I was typing too fast, I edited my post, I wanted to say that his industry accolades mostly consist of mtv awards

Once again…I’m still having a hard time talking about rappers and accolades being an arguing point
Nah...he never had great reviews. You can check by yourself, he doesn't have a single album with critical acclaim (in comparison, all of kendrick albums have earned universal acclaim status, meaning they all have higher score than 81/100 on metacritic, with 2 of them being the 2 highest rated rap albums by critics ever - Tpab has 96/100 and DAMN 95/100, in comparison Em's best albums average scores are in the 70/100). The fact that Eminem albums got panned by critics was actually a discussion among Em fans, they were saying the critics were against him.
As for his grammy awards, thats cool, I agree that 15 grammy is a lot...but...

If we take off PAC and Big who were lost too soon…
Who is added?
With Jay, Nas, and Kenny you need a least 3 classics

I was responding to someone saying Eminem was very commercially successful (I agree) and one of if not the most decorated rapper as far as industry accolades (strongly disagree)

Acclaim by cacs apparently is all that matters but I guess that's all they have cus the music sucksNobody in real life gives a damn if an album is critically acclaimed.
