Eminem is simply amazing. esp the eminem show. altho i am a sucker for the Beastie Boys!

Hard to say to be honest. Different people at different times, but overall I would have to say Em's got it.

EL P is a beast, but Eminem has to take it. (not listened to every one in the list admittedly). His rhyme scheme is insane.

Hands down, Eminem get the white rapper award. White rappers don't really move me all that much but when Eminem opens his mouth, I can't do nothing but respect him because he can spit a rhyme so phat ,off the top of his head that most rappers couldn't do if they wrote it down and memorized it. His skills are amazing, his talent is impeccable and his longevity is undeniable.

my pops like Eminem greatest ever

SyyykkE!!

Definitely EMinem...The others don't even deserve to be listed in the same category as EM

Ill Bill, he's actually relevant in 2011 too.
Aesop Rock is up there too.

I think we all can agree the poll/thread would have been more interesting without Eminem as an option. He's good, no doubt. But this natural assumption that no one else is better than him is pretty f*cking sad.
