You need to know when you're time is up. I wouldn't care if I never heard another song from any of them, including Dre.Eminem is twice as big of a legend and twice as big of a name and he gets bashed here all the time.I made this post for the West Coast section and this is a West Coast forum, so that's why I was suggesting a tribute to the West Coast legends. I wouldn't expect people to hold a non-West Coast artist in such high regard... but me personally, yeah, Eminem is a legend as big as anybody other than Pac....As for Kurupt, a lot of you weren't even around when that Dogg Pound album dropped. I mean...I was already in the 8th grade year of school by that time.. I just can never forget man, I had been out the night before, all night with my homies, messing around with this girl Tasha from my school.. and then in the morning Suge, Daz, and Kurupt were on MTV talking about the coming Dogg Pound album. And Kurupt and Daz were always just like Snoop's homies, they were down to Earth. They weren't like superstars, and here they were about to go double platinum. That was just one of my all-time Top 5 moments in hip-hop. There was a lot of controversy at the time about Death Row gettin dropped by Time Warner, and rap gettin shut down. And here they were puttin it down and the album came flawless.

shit is sickning right? dude claims to a legit member of the hip hop culture and his love for africa stems from hip hop but yet his knowlwdge of the overall culture is like a fragment of whats out there.he claims to be a rugged battle tested mc w a sincere love for the culture.BUT only if that culture involves the nwa family tree or KRS ones dusty ass. got news for you slick your missing about 20 years (2/3 of hip hops existance) why dont you go pay some dues brian....go watch beat street and krush groove listen to some tla rock and mc shan...buy a melle mel album, go back and listen to paid in full and long live the kane. go listen to public enemys first two albums you prolly wont even know who im referring to with out a google or wikipedia check. you are the wolf in sheeps clothing. you are a culture vulture parading around like your this diplomatic hip hop purist. your blind baby...blind to the facts of who you are baby.
Eminem is not twice the legend of Dre....quite the contrary, actually
Quote from: NIKCC on April 28, 2014, 11:38:15 AMEminem is not twice the legend of Dre....quite the contrary, actually Hands down. Em's popularity quintuples Dre's. Not saying Dre isn't literally right under Eminem & doesn't have more to do with the landscape of Hip Hop all-time. But in the eyes of the rest of the world (honestly can't even lie...probably because like all of Europe Em is white), Em means more. Probably due to Em's impact for the last 14 years & Dre just becoming more & more irrelevant everyday since The Marshall Mathers LP dropped.

It's all perception. I agree if you compared resumes, Dre has done way more to be considered a bigger legend. But Eminem has the relevance, the ethnicity & the actual bars to be worldwide considered a bigger player.
