It's not opinion. Liking them is opinion. I still like eminem but he's not a good rapper. It's fact, you can't argue fact. Saying eminem is a good lyricist now is like saying the sun doesn't exist.
Whether or not i like him or his style now is 100% opinion and totally irrelevant to what makes him a good rapper. But being good lyrically isn't opinion. It's fact. It's a technical issue. I really don't like Big L but he is/was without a doubt one of the greatest lyricists rap has ever seen. If someone asked me if he was a good rapper i would say yes, he was a strong lyricist. That is fact, denying it is like denying evolution. But i still don't enjoy listening to him.
All i'm saying is that as a lyricist eminem has fallen off big time and is very weak (this is undeniable fact, if you know anything about lyricism you'll swallow your pride and agree).
Whether or not his music is catchy or entertaining or if you enjoy it is completely your opinion and i don't mind, everyone is entitled to have one.
