Battle of the Rappers: 50 Cent vs. Eminem

[Donatello007]

Well my friend was watching me do a quick update here the other night and noticed the battle of the bands threads and he was like "Wheres the rap?" And i was like i dunno. And he told me to do one so now i am. I would say eminem because i think that he has the most integrity of any rapper.

[cqb101]

I'm not even gonna vote, cuz I can't stand rap.......

[malignant]

im not even going to vote because im sick of the battle of the bands and all the others....=]

oh..and 50 and eminem arent bands.

ok, flame me !

I agree, they aren't bands...they're crappers......

[malignant]

i had to edit my post..i realized he put rappers...heh.

[Donatello007]

I figured that not too many people would like it. I am multi-partial to rap and rock in general. I just did this to see if there was anyone else like that here.

[Taloniss]

Eminem. Fifty Cent is overrated.

[Donatello007]

Eminem. Fifty Cent is overrated.
I agree.

[Reznorite420]

[Mars-Chan]

I can't stand it either.

[That Matt Guy]

I like old school rap. Run DMC, Public Enemy, etc.

Eminem is the man. 8)

50 Cent is cool, but if it wasn't for Em and Dr. Dre, he probably would still be in underground.

[R-iZZy]

Screw all people that would think commercial rap is what represents hip-hop. But anyway... I'd say Eminem. He actually had illness to his flow, back when he released the Slim Shady LP and the Marshal Mathers LP. Eminem Show sucked... and 50 Cent is highly overrated. Those shots to his face made his intelligence as high as mine (which isn't too high... heh, felt like making fun of myself).

50 has catchy songs, but he's highly overrated. He has no punchlines, multi-schemes, just simple rhymes that attract Eminem groupies. If he didn't have Eminem's name on his label, he'd be nothing. Eminem is nice and all... but he's falling off...

Royce Da 5'9'' is just a black and better version of Eminem... so if he were in this poll, I'd definitely vote for him (he is my favorite rapper of all-time).

[Morp]

yuck.... rap.... :dead:

[Tetsu Deinonychus]

I agree. I don't like rap either. Especially Not Eminem. I normally wouldn't post here (I consider it rude to insult the thread topic), but I had to say the following:

I don't know who 50 cent is... but he has a real "two bit" name if you ask me!!!! :lol:

[JameO]

I don't like rap anymore but I used to love it before. So I liked "old school" rap like Matthew. I will go with Eminem. 50 Cent just doesn't click with me. Although rap these days is going down the drain. It is just getting worse. It is just like talking about what they did recently. Just becoming horrible. Rock has meaning and is enjoyable to listen to. I don't like hearing how they rape people and raping your own mother? Come on man talk about something sensible.

[HorseTechie]

*clears throat - mod voice booms*

Tsk... if ya don't like rap, then don't bother coming ta this thread. It's just a vote between the two. Tsh... na we ain't gonna have another bash fest going on in here.

Now then... I still vote for Eminem's MUSIC. My husband as taking this liking to Fifty 50, and well, after listening to the whole album twice through on a long road trip.. it about drove me nuts. It all sounded the same. The same beat, and the same rapping rhythm. I like Eminem better cause he has more variety in his style, even though it's about killing bitches.

That's normally my philosophy too, but I just HAD to make that pun!!! :P

Wow... thank you for putting the biggest stereotype to the hip-hop game. Seriously, do you think REAL hip-hop heads enjoy Bizarre (who mostly talks about that sh*t) and his wack lyrics? You see, you're too blind by the media, because all the media reveals to the mainstream are commercial artists, such as gangstas, men who worship their rides and jewels, and men who rape pitbulls and whatnot.

Tell me, have any of you guys heard of Canibus? One of the greatest hip-hop artists with a vast vocabulary and multi-scheme, a graduate of Yale, and is very intelligent. "Lyrical Eclipse" is a mix of his best lines ever. Or maybe you guys have heard of Royce da 5'9''? Very great metaphors used, great flow, and some of the best lyrics you'll ever hear. Just hear "Life" from him and you'll get a whole different perspective on hip-hop.

If you guys keep mistaking commercial rap as true hip-hop, then yes... you're going to hate it. But geez, make sure you get ALL the facts right before you go placing a tag on the whole genre, especially the two guys I listed above that are trying to stay true to the game. Not artists saying the dumbest sh*t just to get sells. Even though Eminem is one of those commercial artists, he still has a very unique and favorable rhyme-scheme, so I'll give him his props too. But that only goes along with the Slim Shady and Marshal Mathers LP.

[Eternelle]

I'm not a big rap fan, but I like quite a bit of Eminen's stuff. Though I have to say that I find 50 cent's In Da Club to be addictive....

[heretic888]

Eminem urinates on 50 Cents.

[Voltron]

Rap was great when they rapped about their sneakers and stuff. Now all rap is about money, women, and drugs, and how good the rapper is at getting one or all of the three.

[That Matt Guy]

The Fat Boys were the greatest rappers of all time.

[Tetsu Deinonychus]

Now all rap is about money, women, and drugs, and how good the rapper is at getting one or all of the three.Yeah, IMO 1980s/early 1990s sneaker & dancing rap is vastly superior to modern "gangsta" rap. That's when I lost interest actually, when it stopped being M.C. Hammer and similar rappers rapping about dance moves and coolness, and started this whole "Gonna blow you away on Saturday you $$##$$#%$()*" type stuff.

[That Matt Guy]

They don't even rap about killing people anymore. Now it's pimp this and pimp that.

Come on. Truefully I used to love rap and listened to everyone. But you got to admit there is no real meaning in rap. It is just off the top of their head or just plain stupid stuff. I voted for Eminem since I used to love it and I voted for him. That is my opinion on rap not due to media and many other people I know that used to like rap. Now it is just going down the drain. I pick rock over rap anyday and everyday but if you like it then good for you but I think most people should realize that most rap is all about ladies and killing and some sort of dancing and drinking and being naked? Oh well.

[Edit: Ok about those two guys above. They actually have some meaning but still. There are still some stuff about them that don't fit. There are very few people that "follow" the hip hop scheme. Sorry if I went a bit overboard.]

[Tetsu Deinonychus]

No need to all-out-bash rap in a rap music thread.
I wouldn't even be posting here if I wasn't checking to see if someone noticed my pun, and agreeing with Voltron that the old rap (stuff about dancing, and women with ample bottoms), is far superior to the modern rap (stuff about killing and raping people). I definately don't like the current stuff, but I'm glad somebody does.

I do agree with you that it's gone downhill, and I would choose rock over rap anyday as well, but no need to announce it to the rap fans.

BTW I'd also take Jazz and/or Blues over Rock just about anyday. :wink:

I did not mean to bash Rap. Just saying that it mostly is about that. And I have never heard alot of Jazz or Blues so I can not decide on that topic. :P Sorry if I said something stupid or wrong. I was just trying to prove my point.

[Tetsu Deinonychus]

Point made. :)
Actually, I do agree with you, but I was just a little worried you might offend some of the rap-fans here.(which of course should be the ones enjoying this thread, will someone please acknowledge my pun so I can stop reading this?)

[Raven]

I use to like rap, but than I started getting tired of the useless talent, and people talking about biches and hos, and every song sounding the same, other wise I would of chose eminem, but I dont think its not that cool to dis your mom, and talk about how your going to kill your x-wife, 50 cent all I hear about him is how many times he was shot.
other wise, I think the only group I like thats rap is outkast.
but thats my opion, hope that dosent offened any one.

Outkast is great. But nothing beats MC HAMMER. *CANT TOUCH THIS*

[Tetsu Deinonychus]

Yeah, Hammer's the king!

[Raven]

:lol: he was before he lost his house

[Tetsu Deinonychus]

So, he's a homeless king!

[That Matt Guy]

Hammer isn't homeless! He's a preacher now.

[Raven]

ok so he lives in the church

[That Matt Guy]

Thats better.

[R-iZZy]

I wonder if his choir wears big shiny pants.

[HorseTechie]

Actually.. yes, I so agree than old school rap was way better than the stuff they call rap today. The early 90's classics is what got me to like it in the first place. :nod:

[Leo656]

"Baby Got Back" was definitely one of the 5 or 10 best songs ever.

[That Matt Guy]

I really don't consider MC Hammer the pinnacle of "old school" rap. Run DMC were way cooler.

[Tetsu Deinonychus]

YakidK was my fav! :D

[R-iZZy]

Heh... I loved Kriss Kross, jumping like a mad lunatic to that song when I was little.

[HorseTechie]

Kriss Kross..? *lol* Damn.. that was the shortest lived rapping trend. Still remember how they used to joke about how those guys wore their clothes backwards.

I thought the stuff MTV would put on those collected albums were cool too. Think they called them Jock Jams... until the prefabricated hip-hop bands started to take over.

"Yo... O-P-P! Yah, you know me!"

[Leo656]

I was definitely down wit' OPP. Naught By Nature is STILL the shiznit.

For all you wrestling fans, y'know Shane McMahon's theme music, "Here Comes the Money"? You know... "Ching ching, bling bling cut the chatter, you aint talkin' money then yo' talkin' don't matter..." Well, that's Naughty By Nature. Betcha didn't know that. :)

[The Stryker]

OH OH!! i knew that mr.leo656 sir!

do i get a nWotech hat now?

[Leo656]

If ya really want one.... :lol:

[The Stryker]

YAY!!!

[XERO]

What about Kid N' Play?

The House Pary movies were so cool! :D Plus, Martin Lawrence was funny as hell!

[Stone Ill]

Rap sucks..end of story.


Well, except for Run DMC. You don't mess with that. :D

LMAO... I knew that already. I still play "Hip Hop Hooray" when I drive. Naughty By Nature is just the shizzle dizzle (ugh... pimp talk). I was definitely down wit' O-P-P too! YEAH YOU KNOW ME!!!

What about Kid N' Play?

The House Pary movies were so cool! :D Plus, Martin Lawrence was funny as hell!

HELL YEAH!!! The House Party series is probably the best series ever. Even that unknown 4th installment of House Party (which had iMX as the stars, instead of Kid'N'Play) was okay for terrible acting. It was still funny as hell. It was strange to see the light-skinned girl kissing on Kid instead of Martin, when you've watched the Martin show. But man, those movies are the best. AND THE THIRD MOVIE HAD THE NINJA TURTLES!!! LOL...
