What skills do these artists have that allow then to cross ove to other genres. Is it their skill or their character or both? If so what skill as an artist is their best?

    Eminem had a Dre cosign and gained notoriety for being a white boy that can format multi-syllabic rhyme schemes similar to that of G Rap.. thing is, his albums and songs are garbage, and a lot his content is despicable.. not to mention Em attributed a lot of his success to him being white..

    Jay, Nas, Common and Outkast have multiple classic albums under their belt..
