EMINEM lyricist of the year ???

[RivieraIII]

Here are the nominees for Lyricist of the year at the next Source Awards:
1- Eminem
2- Jay-Z
3- Scarface
4- Prodigy
5- Talib Kweli
Now, that's a TIGHT fuckin' choice to make but I believe Eminem should (and WILL) win (which would be a unique feat: back to back "lyricists rings" from The Source). According to the magazine, we could listen to one of those dudes accapella. In my opinion, it's really a battle between Em, Scarface and Talib Kweli for "rewind button" material (no dis to greats like P or Jigga) but this year Slim REALLY laced it when it came to sick wordplay (The Way I Am), storytelling ability (Stan) and whatever else. What y'all think??? And who do u think was slept on this past "Source" year?? To me Sticky Fingaz was...

Talib Kweli deserves it more.

[.:N-Imy:.]

Yeah Em iz a great lyricist and all but it's about time other people got recognition for their work. SO I hope Talib Kweli wins it.

[ZILLA THA GOODFELLA]

Man, Em got it year, it should be talib or scarface.

[West Coast Veteran]

I Hope Scarface Wins.

Jigga & Talib Kweli Should Come Next.

I want Eminem!

Explain To Me How Em Was The Lyricist Of The Year Last Year, I Say His Lyricism Fell Off Big Time Last Year.

I'd Vote For Scarface Or Jay Z Before Em In this One, I Think His Last Year Wasn't Nothing Great (I Can't Think Of 1 Song That Stands Out Big That Was Just Tight).

[Trauma-san]

Does The MMLP Even Count As Last Year?

I think talib kweli should win it but we know he won't get it. The system is fucked up.

yet another eminem post...cling...(sword) i bring ruckus to tha next god who step to me with dis bullshit...

[ImmortalOne]

Talib is probably the best lyricist on that list. However, I hope Scarface wins it, cuz he is a VERY underrated MC, and hasnt won an award yet [to my knowledge]. His album "The Diary" is a hip hop classic.

Ive never cared for Eminem, and never will. To me, he's an very average lyricist and I cringe when i hear someone say he's made a classic album.

Mos definitely. Talib won't stand a chance but at least Scarface should win it. His shit is real.

[Don Jacob]

who should win it?---talib
who will win it?---probably jay-z or eminem

[Scribe]

I do hope Talib wins, but it'll be pretty unlikely.

[Hittman]

I'd prefer Scarface to win it.

BTW I think I misunderstodd bez post becuase he said that he wanted Eminem. Hopefully that wasa mistake.
