This thread isn't about wether Eminem is the best or sales or popularity but is there a more creative Artist in Music a complete Song maker like him?


Eminem Writes Lyrics, Produces Beat's, Mixes his tracks, performs & Sing's his Hook's, put's out Hit Singles, Executive Produces his Album's, play's the Keyboard, Programms Drum machine and does the engineering in the Studio


Even Ghost Writting if you look at the Chronic 2001 Dr Dre himself said Eminem Wrote alot of the records on that Album


You gotta look at live performance too so many Artists don't tour regularly but Eminem always tours when he put's out an Album

    Kanye West


    See Kanye West doesn't really perform Hook's or Sing on the Hook's like Eminem i'm not saying Kanye West doesn't ever do Hook's but he definitley gets features for Hook's and he will use Auto Tune as well


    Also Kanye West had help with Lyrics too Jesus Walks wasn't Written just by Kanye it was Co Written with someone else


    Kanye also samples more than Eminem as far as Beat making


    And i'm not sure if Kanye Mixes tracks either

    Not true if you check Album credits a Song can be Produced by someone but someone else could have got credits for MIxing or someone could have got credit for Programming the Drum machine


    Then you got your engineers in the Studio


    My point really is Eminem does everything and that's how it's been since 1999 when The Slim Shady LP came out

    sampling is a staple of hip hop.

    Em isn't even touring. He said it's too much of a temptation in his sober lifestyle. Shut up about Em already you already know what peoples reaction is gonna be. If Eminem is so great how do you explain songs like "? ." How could anyone ever like the song "? "? I will give though that I like Em as a producer, I know Im in the minority but hes had some moments of greatness in producing.

    I named Jesus Walks but i know Kanye has had other Song's were people have Co Wrote it with him like i said Kanye will get people to do the Hook's on his Song's too


    Eminem Writes all his Song's, Sing's his Hook's, Produces the Beat's, Mixes the tracks, does the Drum Programming, Ghost Writes for Dr Dre

    I am aware Sampling is apart of Hip-Hop but you are more creative if you make a Beat from scratch like Eminem does


    It is easier to Sample


    You named one Song where Kanye is performing/Harmonozing the Hook but Eminem Sing's not just Harmonizes but actually Sing's almost every Hook on most his Song's where as Kanye uses features for Hook's alot

    He's done hooks though. On every album. Without the Autotune.
    Also Kanye West had help with Lyrics too Jesus Walks wasn't Written just by Kanye it was Co Written with someone else

    And the rest of his catalouge that just ? on Em?
    Kanye also samples more than Eminem as far as Beat making

    He also makes more beats than Em with and without samples.
    And i'm not sure if Kanye Mixes tracks either

    He does.

    I haven't heard Kanye West feature to do a Hook apart from that Camron Song



    Usually when Eminem features on a Song he will make the Beat and do the Hook to and Mix the track

    Is this what you're seriously holding on to? He does hooks when he makes a beat. I know you like Em, but damn. You can't convince me to think like you. If you think Em is he most creative, good for you. I respectfully agree to disagree.
