Battle of the Rappers: 50 Cent vs. Eminem
 
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.

malignant 09-13-2003 09:45 PM

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

Donatello007 09-13-2003 09:51 PM

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.

His music i meant. Him as a person, God no.

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 09-14-2003 10:11 PM

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 09-15-2003 12:20 AM

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

Tetsu Deinonychus 09-15-2003 03:29 AM

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 09-15-2003 05:26 AM

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 09-15-2003 12:36 PM

*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 09-15-2003 06:37 PM

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 09-16-2003 01:15 PM

heh
 
Eminem urinates on 50 Cents.

Voltron 09-16-2003 10:20 PM

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 09-16-2003 10:50 PM

The Fat Boys were the greatest rappers of all time.

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 09-16-2003 10:58 PM

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 09-17-2003 09:55 AM

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 09-17-2003 10:22 AM

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 09-17-2003 10:34 AM

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.
