Eminem is a better rapper than Lil Wayne

Yum. My opponent has made this fun. For that, I applaud him. "Ok, my opponent has made a good point. I tried to sneak that one in there and my opponent has called my bluff, and for that I commend her. But I've been thinking man... Eminem has had some terrible lyrics over the years, particularly recently. So I suggest that I post the worst two Eminem lyrics I can find, and my opponent post the worst two Lil Wayne lyrics she can find, and we'll let the voters decide which is crappier." Before I post Lil Waynes "lyrics", I would like to make the point that those verses from Eminem's songs were both from Encore, his 2nd worst album, and the album was basically fun. "Just Lose It" shouldn't be taken seriously at all. Fair enough. Here we go. CRAPPY LIL WAYNE LYRICS #1 Ok, hello it's da Martian Space jam Jordans I want this sh** forever wake up and smell the garden Fresher than the harvest Step up to the target If I had one guess than I guess Im just New Orleans Um. What? Not only does Lil Wayne have terrible delivery, his lyrics don't even make sense. Try to make sense of this. If you could, that's great. But what does "space jam jordans" mean? I get that Michael Jordan was in the movie Space Jam. But that's it. And then Lil Wayne "want[s] this sh** forever wake up and smell the garden"? Again, what? And then he goes as far as to say he is an actual city! Madness, I tell you. Pure madness. CRAPPY LIL WAYNE LYRICS #2 "I'm a lion roar I'm a dinosaur" No comment. "Eminem's a whiner. He cries about being broke and stuff, he's worth $100 million. Oh, he's addicted to drugs... boo hoo, so go to a rehab clinic and fix yourself up. Lil Wayne raps about the cool sh*t in life, not the boring depressing stuff. Eminem is hardly a role model and anybody looking to Eminem's raps for moral guidance should probably go see a real councillor. In conclusion, Lil Wayne beats Eminem because he raps about cool stuff like blunts and chicks, and not about depressing stuff like your mother not loving you." May I remind you that Lil Wayne has a song called "Whip it like a Slave"? And the subject matter matters when you rap, just like lyrics. But simply rapping about blunts and hoes doesn't make you any better. And addiction is a terrible thing, you just don't go to a rehab clinic and get fixed up; if it was that simple, we wouldn't have any druggies PERIOD. "My opponent goes onto Contention 2, where she admits that most people are idiots, and that there are bound to be anomalies in everything. I contend that Eminem is one such anomaly in the music charts, and therefore that my opponent's Contention 2 is rebutted. Popular =/= good." Ok, I agree. Sales aren't really a deciding factor in who's a better rapper. BUT, 80 million albums doesn't mean nothing. My opponent then says, with respect to Contention 3: "Clearly, Dr. Dre's intervention in his life was what he needed to get past the skin color. Had Dr. Dre not signed him, we would not know Eminem today." "This is a plain admission on my opponent's behalf that Eminem is not good enough to make it in rap without the aid of Dr. Dre, purely because of his skin colour. But there are plenty of white rappers, not quite as popular as Eminem, but popular nonetheless. Hell, Jauqine Phoenix has started rapping. If Eminem can't make it as a rapper without a big shot producer's help, then he can't be good. Lil Wayne started his own career." My opponent states that there are plenty of white rappers out there trying to make a name for themselves, and are relatively popular. BUT, how many of these existed before Eminem bursted on the scene? If my opponent can give me one example of a successful white rapper before Eminem's time, then my point is invalidated. And Joaquin Phoenix was only noticed as a "rapper" because he was a famous actor beforehand, and starred in big Hollywood productions, eg Gladiator, The Village, Walk the Line, etc. "Contention 4: Lil Wayne looks cooler and more like a rapper than Eminem. This is very important because image is a major part of the rap game, you've gotta have the look, and as I'm about to show, Eminem does not. Here's a few of Lil Wayne: http://media.photobucket.com...... http://blogs.phoenixnewtimes.com...... http://the189.com...... Now look at that dude man, pure rap. Smoking bulk yahndi, big dreadlocks, covered in tattoos. Now let's take a look at Eminem: http://www.smh.com.au...... http://www.smh.com.au...... http://www.judiciaryreport.com...... I think we've seen about enough. The guy looks like a homosexual. And I mean lesbian. This man should not be rapping, he should be hosting the View." Let me provide you one photo that will PROVE Lil Wayne is un-cooler than Eminem. Just ONE. http://nahright.com... :OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO Are you telling me that a rapper that kisses dudes is good?!??!?! I don't see Eminem kissing men. Vote for Eminem.
