Who is better eminem or tupac
Forum Entertainment : Music Who is better eminem or tupac
ill go for eminem because he rapped about reality and stuff in his life and all what tupac did was start beefs and rap about how proud he is to be a gangsta
1st this is a ridiculous thread.
2nd Tupac was a lyrical genius and was living during a time of political turmoil towards the black community.
Tupac didn't rap about "Reality and stuff"?

tupac plagiarized from huey newton a lot.
eminem in terms of skill. sheer skill.
Tupac in terms of social impact which is a huge part of what Rap is.

Look, if you're going to tell everyone how Tupac wasn't all that great and how Eminem was "so much more real" and way better than Tupac, don't start a thread where people can discuss it. It really takes the fun out of the thread.
Also, "plagiarism" isn't the same as "reference." Tupac dropped Huey's name for a reason.
Eminem's extremely talented, but we're talking about Tupac here. I mean, TUPAC F**KING SHAKUR. The man's a legend and is in a totally different league than 99.9% of all rappers today. Sorry, Eminem, but my vote goes to Tupac. Guy was legit.
Anyways, I full-heartedly agree that this thread is ridiculous, wanamingo.
Eminem is my favorite!!!
Tupac is worlds better then Eminem lyrically, i used to like Eminem back in his Slim Shady days because he was a lot more quirky and creative with his rhymes, now a days he feels like a copy clone of all the rest of the generic mainstream rappers.
Still Eminem still does not have as many truly meaningful songs as Tupac had. You can argue that they have different syles of course though.

If you look at any band/group they have all taken from other artists so in my eyes that's a moot point. Hell you can even say the same about Eminem taking lyrics from Grandmaster Flash. I think Eminem was even sued for plagiarism, Tupac wasn't.
All Tupac did was start beefs and rap about being a gangster? Really? Have you actually listened to Tupac? That whole Bad Boy/Death Row beef wasn't just him starting that. Look it up.
Skill and flow wise I can't really decide which is better. I much, much, much prefer Tupac over Eminem. I think mostly was because there was a lot I could relate to in his music when I used to listen to it a lot.
Eminem has no equal.
Please explain why you think he has no equal. I can understand that lyrically he has songs that are really good and flow wise he's above average. I can see him being a person's favourite rapper but in no way is he the best. I'll give you the nod on how he's sold the most albums out of all the rappers of the 21st century though in a time when Justin Beiber sells three million albums in a year that stat does not mean much to me.
Justin Beiber IS A JOKE!
That's why I used him as an example as to why record sales mean nothing. I want to know why you feel Eminem is the best.
No rapper in the business today can put together words that shouldn't flow but do when he is the orchestrator.
Really? You ever heard Busta freestyle? What about the Hilltop Hoods? There's also Mos Def, KRS-one, Nas, Outkast, etc. I understand Eminem is your favorite rapper and I would put him high on my list lyrically but he is not the best. I've seen K-Naan do a battle rap that would have put anything I've heard from Eminem to shame. If you feel that Eminem is the greatest then that's your viewpoint and what I say won't make a difference. From what I've seen and heard I'll never agree with it.
