He's put out a lot of good material but a lot of bad **** too, whereas guys like andre3000 have a better argument for GOAT because every single thing they touch turns to gold. (my opinion anyway, i can see why people might think em is the GOAT though)
Imagine old Andre and Em rapping together on a track back in like 1998

But the fact andre has released pretty much 0 trash is a marvel to me, you don't need to release the most great material to be GOAT imo, just enough material to display your ability, but i think not releasing trash defiantly harms the GOAT argument for em. If he had retired after the eminem show this may be a different discussion.Em has way more gold though. I can't even name all the verses or tracks he has released on his albums or other artists. He just has more great material than any other rapper. And I really like old Outkast.

Southernplaylisticmusik, ATLiens, Aquiemini and stankonia are classics in the rap world, and speakerbox/love below went diamond.. considering the concept i find that remarkable, andre is just so creative and doesn't have to stick strictly to rap. Only point against him is no solo album. Andre has done a TON of features since outkast though and he always makes the guys he raps with sound basic, good examples are rick ross 'sixteen, and T.I 'sorry' (and i like T.I a lot).
Still all subjective and as i said before i really rate Em too, just not a fan of the last couple of albums bar a couple of songs. Although i thought his verse on caterpillar was fire and felt like the old em, and 'framed' was alright too and felt slim shady-esque. Your opinion is fair enough here though and i understand it, it's really close for me but i think i prefer andre/outkast.
But yeah i agree, would be fukkin amazing to hear, i'd like to hear outkast as a whole with em, em + big boi + andre 3000 would be amazing.
Looking forward to listening to this album after work, hope it lives up to the hype in this thread

first song and fuarkkkkk... didnt listen to one song off of the last album.
Paul wants me to chill, y'all want me to ill
I should eat a pill, probably I will
Old me kill the new me, watch him bleed to death
I breathe on the mirror, I don't see my breath
Possibly I'm dead, I must be possessed
Like an evil spell, I'm E-V-I-L (evil, but spelled)
Jam a Crest white strip in the tip of my dicc with an ice pick
Stick it in a vice grip, hang it on a spike fence
Bang it with a pipe wrench
While I take my ballsack and flick it like a light switch
Like vice-president Mike Pence

It definitely is subjective though and i agree that i wish Em hadn't released so much trash. For example Encore is like 70% trash with some gems that make you wonder why the fuk he would release that album with some of those chitty songs. A lot of his choruses have been cheesy too since The Eminem Show but like i said that's just how Em is and some of his choruses and singing parts are actually good. But he is diverse.

And yeah, i agree with the last part, i think em just tried to get too poppy and let a lot of producers interfere in his music that had no business working with him. Also probably best for him to leave the politics out, but then he wouldn't be Eminem.

A lot of his recent stuff has been chit but there's been a few flashes of the old marshall so fingers crossed. His verse on caterpiller was absolute fire, and 'Framed' gave me an old school slim shady feel.

i wonder if these established rappers have hatred for the soundcloud nu-rappers. they had to come out of the ghetto and prove themselves in rap battles while soundcloud guys just get high and mumble into their laptop microphones. lol.

But in all seriousness, read those lyrics to yourself out loud without actively rapping along to them like Eminem does. Any grown man who calls that "good music" is an embarrassment. Not only is a 45 year old rapper being vulgar on the level of a potty mouthed teenage punk kid, but it's the classic lazy rap that's not saying anything and is just stringing words together to make mostly random, nonsensical rhymes. Don't get me wrong, Eminem has made plenty of clever songs in the past (excessive vulgarity aside), but this trash is nothing to write home about based on his standards from 1996-2002.

The fact that he has struggled to get beyond that crap besides making about 20 different Hallie themed songs and that pity party Beautiful song you mentioned is pretty pathetic when you compare him to a lot of other greats.What do you want a 45 year old to rap about?

Again, I'm not just saying he sucks. Just that he has sucked for about 15 years or so.
