Worst musical artists, ever?

We’re going to have to agree to disagree–Eminem’s lyrical skill and delivery sounds like cat shit smells. If you like that, more power to you.

Then again, my idea of good “hip-hop” is old school Public Enemy.

I love PE, 3rd Bass, Gang Starr, Main Source, Ice Cube… and I think all of these cats would duff their caps to Eminem’s skills.

Cite? I’m having a hard time visualizing 3rd Bass or IC giving props to Marshall Mathers.

Then again, maybe you know something I don’t. I didn’t care for Duke Ellington at all when I was 14.

All righty… here you go…

@Ice Cube

The reason I’m cool with Eminem and all the success he’s getting is because he’s a credible MC. He can rhyme and do all the things you got to do to be credible out here. I’m talking about the music, lyrics, and the flow. It’s all put together right, so I have no problem with Eminem. I mean, before him we had the Beastie Boys. Put it this way, that’s just the history of America. A white cat takes something invented by the black community and gets rich from it.

Metro Times: Do you think 3rd Bass opened the hip-hop door for Eminem and other white rappers?

MC Serch: Absolutely. There is a cross-reverse color line when it comes to our music. People didn’t see white — just a dope group. I love that my ghetto past is that genuine. People don’t know that I’m white. It certainly gave people a barometer to judge what’s real and not real. You can’t deny Em’s talents. He would have gone far regardless.
