He's a phenomenal lyricist.. no doubt. But the problem is that most of the shit he says has no real meaning to it. Ok, he said some crazy rhymes and did some crazy schemes... but he didn't say anything of substance that I actually care about.. Most of the time he doesn't say anything important. He's got SOME tracks.. but.. most are trash. For me personally, I'd rather listen to a rapper talk about real shit and rhyme and scheme in a much deeper connected way. When Nas raps about the hood.. you're going on a fucking journey to the hood... when Big L dropped Ebonics you learned some real shit... shit like that.. ect ect. Em definitely has his place in rap.. no doubt, but I just find it hard to care about half the shit he rhymes about anymore. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Depending on if you care/cared about whay he was saying that’s a whole other thing. He just came out with this a 2 years ago big l is dope tho for sure. But yeah em is mainly just lyrical acrobats at this point. But where would big l be now? Either retired or likely doing the same Edited August 17, 2022 by ghostz Quote Link to post Share on other sites
