    Tyler the Creator. Maybe not musically but you can definitely hear it in his attitude. Not giving a f---, saying what's on his mind. Tyler always been a big Em fan

    He was shot in 2000. He wasn't signed to shady for 2 more years. His buzz was crazy before he signed. Labels had a bidding war trying to sign him

    Idk what the exact number is but at the time he only had two offers. One for 1.3 million from Universal and another from Shady. I never heard him mention any other offers

    His buzz was crazy. He also had his beef with Ja Rule and Murder Inc after his shooting which was very serious. Labels wanted no part of that. From what i know, and i could be wrong, the bidding war was between Shady and Universal, thats it.

    In my opinion, I don't think it's a matter of who would be famous and who wouldn't without Shady. I think J Cole, Kendrick Lamar, Hopsin, 50 Cent, etc. would be successful without Eminem. I think the artists would be drastically different though. Kendrick and Cole still probably would have had a cultural influence, but I think it would have been expressed differently. All of this actively affects upcoming rappers as well.

    bigtrucks87, dude's not at all famous, but he's dope as f--- and has fat beats and busty rhymes. he's like the modern day eminem, he's telling stories in his songs and appreciates lyricism. check him out on youtube if you have time.
