    I would have to go with
    “my face is pale, but you look like you seen a ghost”
    or
    “You couldn’t make this crowd through up their hands if they swallowed their fingers”

    Eminem is the GOAT battle rapper and freestyle rapper, not to mention GOAT overall.

    I’m not too familiar with his battle rapping material, apart from Infinite. I’m gonna go check out some s--- now, though

    Easily his best battle rap lines:

    "I got so many ways to diss you that I'm playful with you
    I'll let a razor slit you, 'til they have to staple-stitch you
    And everybody in this f---in' place'll miss you
    If you try to turn my facial tissue to a racial issue
    Nobody's hearin' you, you're a wack liar
    d---! All your white jokes just backfired"

    Disorderly Progress What's cookin?

    The two you mentioned are dope as s---.

    His Infinite puns are actually great. He was better than than he was in 2010, 11, 12... Probably up until some of MMLP2 and post s---, but can still come out with some rough stuff.

    But them Infinite puns...

    "I'll run your brain around the block to jog your f---ing memory"

    "I stop the alphabet at s and got it down to a T"

    "I shout with a slang simple as ABCs, skip over the D's and rock the microphone with ease"

    --

    From actual battles though...

    "I'm bout to make this mic short circuit
    This beat is wack as f---... this s--- fits you perfect"

    Was very dope.

    --

    Have noticed that with all of Em's various styles... it affects his writing quality too. I don't actually believe it's an ability thing or his lifestyle or anything, but depending on the style - changes how he phrases things and that affects the type of line that he writes which can be amazing or wack.

    Like for example with this new style, the Campaign Speech s---, some of the stuff is coming off weak because he's writing all backwards and inside out because he's trying to sound like this weird literal smart-a--- and it results in these kinda Canibus type worded lines.

    Whereas the 97-99 SSLP era style... due to the type of delivery and vibe he came with, it led to a more a casual and blunt type of writing, leading to just fire coming out of his chops.

    What you need to do is work on your freestyle before you come up missing like snoop dogs police files.

    I'm not really an expert but battle rap has evolved a lot since back then, a lot of dudes are better than him

    Yeah, but if Em focused on battle rap , he could shred..he's got too many tools in his bag of tricks too break opponents down. Most battle rappers are good at 1 style. It's chess vs checkers...In a best of 5 showdown , my bet is on Em..
