Flow-Snoop
Delivery-Snoop
Lyrics-Em
Subject matter-Em

Now thats Doggystyle Snoop not current Snoop...If we're talking current Snoop Em beats him in all categories...I rather listen to Snoop cause he's my favorite rapper but I have to admit Eminem is on top of his game right now...

Says it all for me pretty much... as well as that comment about snoop being more than a rapper. The Dogg has his paws on everything. But you know it all depends on individual songs. Some snoop songs have better subject matter and lyrics than em while some seem to be about well... nothing.. he's just having fun

Oh and Snoop's 31, not near 40. Peace *update* Em's turning 31 this year too!

now there's a surprise (at least for me)

How does eminem win for impact? LOL Snoop prolly had the most impact on rap of the last 10 years then any other rapper man besides maybe dre, if it wasn't for snoop and dre the west would not have been NEAR as big as it got. and eminem hasn't done nethin that has impacted the game as much as the chronic and doggystyle have.

LMAO, where have you been? Do you know what impact means?

actually i do knwo what impact means and i'm pretty sure everyone will agree with me when i say that snoop has done more for hip hop then eminem ever will and has secured a place as one of the people who impacted rap the most in the 90's.

Snoop Dogg '92-'96 > Eminem > Snoop Dogg Present

Snoop Dogg's impact on HIP HOP far outweighs Eminem's by a landslide. Yes Eminem has impacted media and so on but who really gives a shit about that. Back in '93 Snoop was as big a star as Eminem is right now taking into consideration HIP HOP wasn't as large then.

1. Snoop Dogg was the main reason the West Coast was on top of HIP HOP in the early 90's.
2. He had influenced countless rappers styles including The Notorious B.I.G.
3. Snoop and Dre are responsible for getting "hardcore rap" played on the radio.
4. He influenced the HIP HOP style of dress by popularizing flannel shirts, khakis, Chuck Taylors and hockey jerseys to a national level.
5. The popularization of marijuana in hip hop sky-rocketed after The Chronic dropped. Dre said the title of his LP was the idea of Snoop. No one but Cypress Hill and Redman discussed marijuana until Snoop came in.

There's a lot more but too lazy to sit here and think.

Eminem's influence:
1. Allowed white rappers to become a commodity in rap music.

I'm having a hard time with Em so can someone help me list how he impacted HIP HOP other than being the media's pet and sales. I'm talking about changing the game.

snoop dogg was a product of the times in the 90's. gangsta rap was at an all time high and dre had the midas touch... Eminem however, came straight out of left field. nobody ever thought at that time that a white rapper could be succesful.

i believe 2pac had the most effect on west coast credibility. "california love" had people doing just that...showing california love. snoop was just the opening rapper for that.

as for classic, yes doggystyle is a classic, just like mike tyson was a heavy weight champ. but that was the past, we all know eminem would rap circles around snoop now and then.

the only reason why eminem doesn't have a classic cd is the subject matter... i can't relate at all to a drug whore of a mother, a rolling stone father and so on and so forth.

and to be honest i won't vote for either of them, they both have ups and downs, my vote goes to dre for finding two outstanding rappers whose styles are so varied and both have given us hours of timeless music (well that has yet to be seen with eminem's)
