Eminem > Lupe Fiasco. True or False?!
Question: wow, i can not believe this is a serious question. Lupe isn't bad by no means, but come on. Do you really think that he compares to Em's flow/delivery/word play/creativity/sales/wit/entertainment value/ect./ect.? My goodness, as much as the "black community" hates to admit it, Em is one of the greatest of all times. Plain and simple. And to all the kids or people with short memories who say Lupe is better just cause he is moving units right now, let him and Em drop a new album on the same day and see who out sells who.

False..Eminem has done more album's,but at least lupe never fell off,unlike eminem who is becoming a has been..
i like em both
Hip Hop fans talking about Eminem fell off...that's because he hasn't come out with an album in what...2-3 years..and Hip hop fans move on to "Who's most popular" so fast! Eminem don't have time to make an album every year due because he has to promote his last one with TV & concert appearances throughout the year(or 2 years) than it's his time to rest!
Anyway I think Eminem is better than Lupe...Eminem is much more clever with the lyrics plus he's an REAL MC that can battle on stage. Lupe has the words & topics to raise some eyes but Eminem got the creativity with lyrics.
Edit: I Agree with Cool Guy!!!!!!!
As of now...true...
true
I love Eminem,always have and always will, but Lupe's s just so much better than Eminem
As far as flow and punchlines are concerned, I will say yes. As far as making more quality songs, I am going with Lupe Fiasco.
False
I like both of them.
But Lupe is more creative.
I really think Eminem is running out of things to say at this point in his career.
he can't talk about his mother or pop stars anymore like he did before.
But I think if he does drop another album then it will be good.
hes been through alot these past few years so should come out with some great material.
His last album was good but just not that great.
Right at this moment, False
But over the span of their careers, true because Eminem is a hip-hop legend
False. I never could get into Eminem. His music is different, but he's a head case for real. Lyrically, Lupe is much more "rational" to me.
can't say. it jus depends.
true!!
false
eminem is more well known than lupe fiasco
Lupe is wayyyy better.
haha good question...
as far as actual rapping goes, I will say Lupe Fiasco with little reservation
as far as importance to the Hip-hop world it is Eminem without a doubt.
as much as i love Lupe Fiasco, as much as I am a Stan for Lupe Fiasco I will recognize the that there wouldn't even be the term stan if it wasn't for eminem, overall I would say Eminem> Lupe Fiasco
breaks my heart...
This is a very broad question/statement. Ill answer it in every aspect.
First of all, at his peak, Eminem was 4x as hot as Lupe will ever be. They are two TOTALLY different sounding people. Eminems sounds like a diary of a crazed, insane, drug addicted serial killer. Lupe something that can usually cheer you up. He sounds alot like Kanye.I personally think Lupe is alot better. Every song sounds completely different. Eminems beat are all the same, and he steals alot more beats then you'd think. Toy soldiers...the whole kids chorus is taken from Markita's song "Toy Soldiers". Eminem is over. That type of music, is waste. People have enough problem of their own, they dont need to hear a millionaire "rap" about his mother, daughter, and wife. Rap is slowly going back to how it used to be with Run DMC...very upbeat and clear. Kanye and Lupe are running it right now, and I dont think they are planning on stopping anytime soon.
true
Lupe ain't even in the same category as eminem...anyone who thinks so either has to be a really young and just following who's out right now or jus plain retarded...this comparison or whatever it is..is stupid cause Lupe had two albums and neither one of them have done well..but doesn't mean he's not a good m.c. though..but he isn't close to eminem...not even on the same planet
Right now...yup
True
true em is still a more diverse mc than lupe may ever be lupe is good no doubt but he could never be as good as em
