Most hip hop fans can respect his legacy

I never really met that many people who disliked Em until I got on this site.

i dunno, i can stil leasily listen to his old stuff and love em...i know they are edgy but at the same time its pathetically easy to tell how talented he was

yeah man. Like imo hes now a living legend and I see so many fans ect say this.

He is often called one of the best ever by other rappers

was randomly listening to TIC today when he said that line

i find it interesting, half the people think he gets much more respect than he deserves, others think its not enough

what do yall think?

i think he got the respect he deserves at the time, but people slowly starting to rob him away from it...like shi--ing on his first 3 nowdays

He has an unparalleled amount of respect from other artists - just listen to interviews about him. Fans are wishy washy, they hop on the current trends and roll with it. Anyone who respects the culture has to respect what em did for it. Also that 3 album run was nothing less than legendary, don't let a forum where 90% of the people who dog him were 2 when he was big dictate your views. He was/is bigger and more polarizing than anyone we've seen and probably anyone we will see. He's carved his spot on raps mt Rushmore by popular consensus.

I'm not taking away the talent, I honestly still think he has it. But when it comes down to being a pure lyricist, he's one of the best but the subject matter and content of his songs is what has been ruining him for years now.

For what he did for hip-hop for sure. He's now seen as a living legend by fans and his peers

s--- always happens whenever an artist/group breaks away from the sound they got big off

people are always looking for new styles/sounds and complain when someone does the same s--- over and over, but when it's their fav they throw a s--- fit. people don't know what they want

He gets the respect that he deserves. He's the most adored rapper of all time. The treatment he got in South America, he could get in any other continent.

It wasn't really the music he put out at the time that stopped me from listening to him. Even around that time, I couldn't even listen to his older work. A lot of the s--- he was saying was "cool" and/or "edgy" at the time, but once you hit a certain age, it's just lame and immature.
