Story behind Snoop and Eminem relationship--

[Sikotic™]

Its wierd how you can't have both Strret respect and be popular among everyone. Its like one or the other.

Eminem will eventually prove the haters wrong.  People comparining him to Vannilla Ice and Hammer??  Eminem puts out full albums of bangin tracks.  Hammer and Ice put out wack albums with one hit song.

And Eminem made ONE song for the radio on both of his albums.  My Name Is, and Slim Shady LP, but because of his incredible talent and large fan base, he was able to get a few more songs to blow up.  

If Eminem and Snoop got in a beef I would be with Eminem.  Because Snoop would have to be a hater to get in a beef with Eminem.  Snoop's not going to do that though because he's smarter than that.  And that's why  he came back and apologized.

Eminem is going to be around a long time.  He will have both hardcore fans, and even non-hip-hop fans, because his music has a universal appeal.  He has a pulse on what's going on right now in American society the same way 2pac and Kurt Cobain did.

Eminem doesn't need to go back to his "Just Don't Give a Fuck" days.  He needs to continue to evolve.  Much like Dre has done.  Daz is a good example of an artist who hasn't evolved, I know alot of you still like him, but not as many like him today as back in 95.

Techniec is right... Eminem is a fucking PHASE he is nothing and i think he will be totally gone in maybe 3 years... im getting REALLY sick of people riding his nuts... to me EM is SOOOO overrated

eminem has MAAAAD respect in the hardcore hip hop community, sure, plenty peeps is frustrated at the shit hes coming with at the moment but the fact remains that hes an ill ass emcee,

i mean, who can battle eminem and win?

ras kass
xzibit
crokked
cage
canibus
pharoahe
chino
kurupt
mad skillz
mos def

maybe those peeps and like a fwew more, but not many, damn sure not snoop(as much as i love his music)

eminem has amazing skills, and some of the most advanced wordplay and rhyming patterns in hip hip EVER... so he COMMANDES respect from everyone, surehe got haters....but most people can recognise  the skillz...

im just one of those cats who wishes hed bo back to his old flow saying some funny shit that shocked you and made you laugh (rather than disapointing you and making you sick)

props to Trauma, those quotes were on point, thats the REAL eminem

As I'm not an MC and Hip Hop is far less popular here than in the US will someone explain to me how you win a battle? What happens? Do they both rap at the same time or what?

[infinite59]

My understanding is that if two artists are battling, one spits rhymes for a minute trying to diss the other, and then the other rapper tries to pick up from where they left off and diss them back for about a minute.  They go back and forth and usually the crowd will decide who wins the battle.  Try to get ahold of the footage of Eminem at the Rap Olympics.

Another thing to do if your freestylin is cyphering, where your chilling with your homeboys and you try to pick up where the other one left off, and you pass it around.  This isn't a competition like battling, this is more like biulding your skills and chilling with your boys.  Here in Kansas City there aren't many hip-hop heads and the one friend I do have that's a head H20 Proof doesn't freestyle.

That's cool man I find that I don't have a problem with lyrics or nuttin but my voice sounds wack (i think)
I know Tanjint used to have that problem

[Sikotic™]

The area I live in no one is into rap. All my homies that were into rap all moved to San Diego (lucky bastards).

How can you not know what battleing is? Nevrmind, It doesn't matter...

Oh.."Fuck Off" was released on Kid Rocks "Devil Without..." CD...

When it's all said and done in 10 - 15 years time when the smokes cleared
Two figures will be standing there
Snoop Doggy Dogg and Dr Dre

^^^Guess you were wrong!

^ I would have agreed with you based on Encore but since then he's stepped his shit up. Don't get me wrong, his shit hasn't been flawless and sometimes pretty weak, but he's still miles ahead of Snoop.

I love Eminem and I love Snoop.  I just wanted to expose a common misconception people had at this forum that Eminem was a fad and that he somehow wouldn't be around in a few years.  Time has proved me right and them wrong.
