Not to downplay amything you said because i agree with half. But that is also your opinion. Hip hop is the culture. It has different elements within hip hop:
1. Art/graffiti
2. MCing/rap
3. Djing
4. Breaking/dance
Rap is the main component of hip hop when combined MCing.
This is coming from someone that saw it in the womb up until its birth and even now as its raped for profit. If a vote is good enough for the POTUS then its good enough to determine the greatest rapper of all time and sir the masses has spoken. 2Pac. Tbh eminem is top 5 at best. If you dont trust my word ask around and do your own research into who the peoples choice is.
Yes, and as I said it was my opinion. We're speaking of music, so I thought the Hip Hop reference would be taken as Hip Hop music , not the culture as a whole. I'm very familiar with it all, but thanks for the condescending tone. I said they were both Top 5, never gave the order in which I place them.

Tupac? Lol, not even close, it's just said cause he's dead
Thats your opinion. But the opinion of the hip hop community is 2pac. Period. This is ATS deny ignorance. Look it up yourself. 2pac is that now and he was rhe best before he even died. Your talking lyrically but rap/hip hop is not just about the rhyming words. Eminem is one of if not the best lyricist ever but his words hold no weight. There's really no debate here. Your statement should have started as in your opinion....
Sort of like the kobe jordan debate.
I've already told you At least, a thousand times in these rhymes I appreciate the prayer but I've already got, God on my side

The devil is an interchangeable metaphor in the song I think. It can be tied to whatever "demons", as they say, one battles I guess.
