I think most of them don't even "consider" Eminem as "rap"

Let's just say if/when I do a list... even if it was Top 50 ... Eminem never will make the cut onto my list. I listened to his first three albums back when they came out. I was hooked on Stan when I was 13 or 12 or what not. But hell, that probably has more to do with the Dido sample than the track.
But to not consider him rap would be ridiculous. He's definitely a rapper, just one that I have no affinity for. Him and Lil Wayne sit on the bench. Subject matter is probably what it is. I can't relate, I don't want to relate to hard drugs and/or domestic violence and/or violence etc.
