Eminem is the best rapper EVER.

uhumm...nooo? music know-it-not-much-at-all fuck no when you resort to hitting every style and flavor of rap song to appeal to as many people as possible on your, what, 5th album(?) just to sell as many records as possible, when common's on around his 8th rapping dope as ever on the same politico-emo shit hes been doing. plus, he didn't even write lose yourself by HIMSELF!?!? that song sucked ass as soon as spaghetti was used to rhyme. its not even that serious being a soundtrack joint. the movie was good though...

currently im listening to people under the stairs

What the h e double hockey sticks is politico-emo? I don't like dividing rap into subgenres but if you're going to, don't use anything with "emo" in the title especially to label a great mc like Common.

emo's short for emotional sorry if i went off on a tangent...i was bored and up late. i don't like sub-genres myself, i was simply labeling SOME of his content (common being one of the most excellent rappers, probably of all-time. he is in my top ten) however, rappers such as atmosphere (also an undoubtedly talented rapper, who i also spend money on) bare the emo label, because they speak of emotions.

Well I don't like any rap being labeled with "emo," but if any of it is going to be it should definitely be stuff like Atmosphere or Sage Francis.. they are good lyricists but really aren't in the same league as Common.

I think Sage Francis' project called "Non-Prophets" is pretty good. There are some fun lyrics in there, such as "why can't we all just get along... stick and beat the shit out of eachother with it" and "my shit so hot plumbers unclog my toilet wearing oven mits" lol.
