View Full Version : Who are you rooting for, Eminem or Canibus?

Since the interview thread was posted...

Both are two of my favorite MC's, and Eminem is much more well rounded... and even though Canibus seems like a dick according to Em's interview, I think I'm rooting for the underdog - Canibus.

I really want to see 'Bis go all out (and Em actually... which is why this would be such an ill battle if it was done properly), and maybe get some foothold in the industry again. He never got the right start, or a fair chance. He came off an underground rep like Em, but pissing off LL fucked his whole career up.

im rootin for canibus..

he should him diss em hard.. this could get interesting

i wanna hear some "2nd round knockout" shit

I Love That
06-14-2002, 07:49 PM
^Ditto... I'd like to see a combination of 2nd Round KO's potency, 100 Bars verdal wizardry, and the Live LL Diss's humor.

Eminem's main advantage for a diss is his sense of humor and colorful delivery. Canibus CAN be funny though... Rip the Jacker had hilarious lines, but the beat and delivery just didn't work. DL "LL diss (Live)" or something like that, and you can hear him originally perform it acapella in front of a crowd... the shit was hilarious.

Definitley Eminem...Eminem is my favorite MC, rapper, artist of all time. I think how Canibus started beef (probably to jump on Slim's dick and get his fame) is pathetic. He took Em's successful hit and dissed it and made a song out of it.

I heard there's more to their beef than Canibus's song, they met or something but so far I'm rootin for Em! :cool:

I'm rooting for Eminem, Canibus is dope, but that last album, although some of it was good (Boxcutter) most of it was crap. I think Canibus has lost it a bit. ):

Man, sorry to say but not since Tupac recorded HIT EM UP has anybody brought as much flavor and power to a diss then Slim Motherfuckin Shady! Have you heard "Girls" or "Quitter"? When Slim wants to kick beef and make em feel it, he gets it done with some fucking authority. Canabitch or Canabeef or Canaworms or whatever his face is, can sit on the park bench with Dillated Peeples, Insane Clown Poseurs, Shrimb Bizkit and Scared Whitey Ford! Eminem brings business in his rhymes, he doesn't say shit, just to hear himself rap. Eminem simply cannot be touched. I've heard all of the attempts to counter him and they are all shallow and uninspired, as if they're yelling fire in a crowded theater and not doing shit. The fact that some of you are backing Canofpiss in an Eminem board is a diss in itself..A diss-grace!

Eminem has a deeper history of battling than Canibus btw.

How can you compare one of the most versatile and developed MC's around to one of the most one dimensional, inconsistent rappers to ever come out?

You're SpAnKy, aren't you?

Without Me alone is better than 3/4 of your favourite songs. I guarentee it.

Your explenation of why pop is bad was worse than what I would have expected from a 7 year old. Thus, callin' Hailies Song and Without Me "poppoppop" doesn't say anything negative about either.

-NinjaMic-
08-27-2002, 04:29 PM
lmao... he mentioned Without Me. Too bad xzyled isn't still around. I could just link to the arguement me and Amanda had.

Without Me is like a sadistic version of M.E.T.H.O.D. Man.

Insane flow, better lyrics than 90% of tracks today. Provide a real arguement.

...and singing = pop? Damn, I never knew that.

Did you know that Pharaohe Monch & Tonedeff can and have sung? Lemme guess... Pharaohe Monch is wack too? ...and Tonedeff is pop, right?

lol Canibus tried to sing on Hate U 2/Luv U 2.

Crossover appeal is an advantage and a testament to versatility.

...and you can't tell me Canibus isn't on that "this is lyrics, this ain't no R&B, rap and bullshit" mindstate.

Everyone has their own idea on what an inch is... until the ruler comes out.

You can have an opinion that he's pop, but if you don't have any proven and rational reasons behind said opinion... it just makes you look assinine.

Or if you in turn don't have any reasoning to why 'pop' is bad, then a statement like 'he's wack because he's pop' could never mean anything, or hold any value.

Paramount
08-28-2002, 05:46 PM
Sure Eminem has some songs that may come off as pop when you listen to them, thats using the general definition of popular music.
But eminem as well as many other rappers have an are using rock an Roll samples and even Rock and Roll beats. Why is it focused at being pop when it could easily be transfered to saying

"ohh Eminem is a rock an Roll retard, he's not a rapper"

Hip Hops branching out a fuckload more right now so of course the shits gonna have a different sound. Especially with Eminem, his voice isnt really Raspy and deep like alot of people precieve hardcore rap to be. For an Example, just because he doesnt sound like Canibus or R.A the Rugged man Doesnt mean he's all pop.

Canibus is a great MC, i respect Canibus very much. Just look at some of his lyrics from songs and freestyles, alot of the shit is amazing. I believe he's anchored by Bad beats and hooks as well as the beefs with LL and eminem, plus his upsettin physical appearance. dont kid yourself, how you look is very important in the music industry.

and Calling Eminem a Pop Princess has to be one of the more stupid things that can be said.

And i really dont know if this will make since but it did to me, and thats all the matters

Eminem is the best in D12. Nobody really has much of a voice in the crew to begin with, and only Proof can match him lyrically - at least on a multi-battle rhyme level - he also outshines him on freestyles - but mic presence, flow, concepts, diversity, cadence, and quality of albums (especially taking into account the fact he HAS a huge liberary of quality solo material) ...? Eminem takes it.

What seperates music from noise? There must be rules to music for it to be music.
You can only play the major scale in certain ways.. would it be opinion if I criticized you for playing it wrong?

Why do you learn English and Literiture at school if there isn't rules? Music/rap is an extension of [the English] language, yes?

Next time you have to hand a poem in at school, ask yourself whether it's being marked on quality or the teachers opinion and extend that to music...

lol @ finally seeing this and watching Hellbound get whored

Ya I agree, at this point in time I think Canibus would take it, I'd root for Em so he can prove that he isn't done lyrically anymore, but who knows. I hear that Canibus isn't beefing anymore though.
