EMINEM VS.WOODIE(WHO HAS BETTER LYRICS?)

[Dizz]

i aint tryin to dog anything, im just sayin thats my opinions, and i respect and noe that what i say may feel like bullshit to someone else, so i aint tryin to hate or nothin..

 

[Tim]

keep it real in his raps

What do you mean by "keep it real"?

 

[FATAL NYGHTMARE]

ok let me clarify sumthing....lyricz have to do with rhymin ability. wut you are talkin about YOUNGZTAMATT iz cong content. when you say lyricz, i think of wordplay/rhyming schemez. say content and i think of wut tha rapper iz rappin about. i guess yall think differently but almozt everyone i know thinkz tha same why i do....
Eminem - better lyricz.
Woodie - better content.
there you go.
and Chrisdogg i dont believe you know wut itz lyke to struggle in lyfe, judging on your responsez to Eminem'z "selling out". when you struggle lyke i did (LYKE I AM) you'd make a radio friendly song in a heartbeat if it would bring your standard of living up. fuck wut anyone sayz or thinkz about you, az long az you can take care of yourself and your familia, you aint sellin out.
altho when you bytch out and make gay ass songz over and over again, juzt annoyin tha hell out of everyone (Ja Rule, Puffy, Fabolous, etc....) then you're nothing more than a bytch.
if i made muzik and needed money to survive, id make ONE radio friendly song and tha rezt would be true to heart. u wouldnt see me dancin around on everyone'z video and makin handfulz of songz that suck ballz juzt bcuz i can. fuck that.

Exactly, I'd sellout in a second so my family didn't have to struggle. Fucc what someone else thinks. Do you pay Eminems bills? Are you going to feed his daughter? If he can't pay his bills and gets evicted are you going to give him a place to live and food to eat? I didn't think so. So let the man make his money. Also who is to say that the music he makes isn't exactly how he wants to make it and if it is, then how is it selling out?

 

[YOUNG BREW]

ALOTTA YALL NEED TO UNDERSTAND THAT NOT EVERYONE HAS THE SAME POINT OF VIEW AS YOU.....NOT EVERYONE IS ONLY MAKIN MUSIC FOR THE MUSIC..ITS NOT EVERYONES GOAL TO STAY UNDERGROUND AND BARELY MAKE ENUFF MONEY TO SUPPORT THERESELF......MOST LEGITAMENT MUSICIANS ARE IN THIS TO "MAKE A LIVING"..

EMINEM WOULDNT BE KEEPIN IT REAL IF HE ONLY RAPPED ABOUT SHIT YOU WANNA HEAR....HES RAPPIN AND CREATING MUSIC THAT HE LIKES FIRST AND FOREMOST...NOW..THATS NOT TO SAY HE DOESNT COMPROMISE AND MAKE CERTAIN SHIT TO APPEAL TO THE MASSES...BUT HE WOULDNT BE A SMART BUSINESS MAN IF HE DID OTHERWISE.....ITS LIKE ANY PROFESSION YOU CHOOSE...YOUR GONNA HAVE TO COMPLY TO THE CONSUMERS NEEDS..IF YOUR SELLIN CARS OR ANYTHING FOR THAT MATTER..U GOTTA TELL THE CLIENT WHAT THEY WANT TO HEAR..MIGHT NOT BE WHAT YOU WANT TO SAY..BUT IF THE MONEY IS MADE..WHY DOES IT REALLY MATTER?.....

IF I HAD THE CHANCE TO MAKE A MILLION DOLLARS FOR A SONG THAT SIMPLY DIDNT CONTAIN PROFANITY AND HAD TO SEND A POSITIVE MESSAGE...YOU A DAMN FOOL TO THINK I WOULDNT.

LIKE IVE SAID B4..I DONT EVEN LIKE EMINEMS SHIT..I DONT LIKE MAINSTREAM AT ALL FOR THAT MATTER...IM INTO NOTHIN BUT UNDERGROUND CALI SHIT...BUT YOULL NEVER CATCH ME KNOCKIN SOMEONES HUSTLE...IF HES MAKIN MAJOR BREAD..THERES NOTHING YOU CAN SAY

 

[mExIcaNox4]

yeah there is just so many tymes u can make a song bout rollin on 24's or my girl part 60 lyke p. diddy-mainstream 2 centavos

underground foolz hella struggle to make a cd come out some them gotta work a full tyme just to feed there family-my 2 centavoz on underground foolz

i also believe you don't know about my life first of all. have you ever eaten top ramen for weeks on end cause that's all you could afford? i lived on welfare for more than half of my life. that's why i joined the military cause i was payin for myself to live since i was a youngsta and the gov. been payin my bills since i was a kid anyways. when i moved to my dad's house, after i got a job, all he payed for was rent and shit. believe i took care of myself and been starving. and with someone as talented as eminem, he didn't need to go the route he went with his songs man, for reals. he got alot of talent and he could have dropped just a regular song off his album and sold millions, the way he sold out to me is, he came with some pop shit instead to drop the album. the rest of albums ain't too much like that. he could have sold enough albums on the fact that he is rollin with doctor dre, he's white, and he's got serious skills. who knows, maybe he is so happy with all those singles he has dropped that were pop shit, and if he is, then i can't hate on that, but i have a real serious feeling after hearing him talk about them songs, that he ain't too happy wit em, you dig? and he prolly just flat out a different dood than me. the glitz and glamour ain't important to me. i wanna have people hear my music, but at the same time i wanna be able to go to the store to get milk for my kids and shit, be able to pump my gas, cause that is more important to me. if you never saw my face in a magazine or on tv but you still loved my music and supported it, then that's cool with me, but i guess he is different. i can understand he needs to feed his daughter and shit, but he could have done it on the raw talent that he has instead of some shit like "my name is." if he would have dropped gulity conscience instead of my name is, he would have got alot more love and i don't think that would have been a sellout move you dig?

while were on the subject, who's gonna go see 8 mile? i think it looks like a good movie

Probably will.

 

[YOUNG BREW]

ill watch that shit when it hits cable..i never go to the movies

havent heard much about it except that its basically like eminems story

 

[CHRISHOGGALYPSE]

eh homie, go to yahoo.com. they got a trailer for it, basically shows you what it's about.

 

[og MS]

EMINEM JUST RAPS ABOUT SOME MEANINGLESS BULLSHIT
______________


listen to STAN... and tell me thatz meaningless bullshit. That man is a lyrical weapon. To be able to pen a song with a storyline such as that is raw.


Woodie is the homie and been the same since day one. Shit he got a chunk of money when he signed with Koch and called me and asked if i was ok and if i needed anything. That's a true homie. Money didnt change him. He still lives the same way and raps about the same everyday occurances.

[Tim]

SOMEONE PLEASE TELL ME WHERE EMINEM COMES TIGHTER THAN THIS.....

The first verse I post he does. Also

"I feel like I'm walkin a tight rope, without a circus net
Poppin perkaset, I'm a nervous wreck
I deserve respect; but I work and sweat for this worthless check
I'm bout to burst this tech at somebody to reverse this debt
Minimum wage got my adrenaline caged
Full of venom and rage, 'specially when I'm engaged
and my daughter's down to her last diaper, it's got my ass hyper
I pray that God answers, maybe I'll ask nicer
Watchin ballers while they flossin in they Pathfinders
These overnight stars becomin autograph signers
We all long to blow up and leave the past behind us
Along with the small fry's and average half pinters
But playa haters turnin bitch like they have vaginas
Cause we see them dollar signs and let the cash blind us
Money'll brainwash you and leave yo' ass mindless
when snakes slither in the grass spineless"

or

"My life is full of empty promises and broken dreams
I'm hopin things look up; but there ain't no job openings
I feel discouraged, hungry and malnourished
Living in this house with no furnace, unfurnished
And I'm sick of workin dead end jobs with lame pay
And I'm tired of being hired and fired the same day
But fuck it, if you know the rules to the game play
Cause when we die we know we all going the same way
Cause it's cool to be player, but it sucks to be the fan
When all you need is bucks to be the man, plus a luxury sedan
I'm comfortable and roomy in a six
But they threw me in the mix with all these gloomy lunatics
who walk around depressed, and smoke a pound of sess a day
And yesterday went by so quick it seems like it was just today
My daughter wants to throw the ball but I'm too stressed to play
Live half my life and throw the rest away"

THAT'Z WHEN THA HOMEBOYZ COME INTO PLAY, my boyz stepped up and helped me when i needed. since then im outta tha slumz and im livin lyfe lyke a normal ghetto hoodlum. ill never go back to thoze wayz, id do wutever it takez to stay away from that way of livin. if i had to "sellout" and make bullshyt muzik, then so be it. havin people such az yourself criticize my muzik aint shyt compared to all i stated above!!!!

i didn't go through and write all the bad shit that has happened to me either, but that ain't what this is about. if you wanna trab sob stories we can do that too. i been through alot of that shit. parents to strung out to care if you are there or not, that ain't what i am sayin, i guess you didn't read it right. what i am sayin is, he could have dropped like 10 different songs on the slim shady lp and made it big and still sold millions!!!!!!!!!!!!!! he could have done without puttin out the real slim shady off the marshall mathers lp and still made it big and maintained his street credibility. he had released the slim shady lp before he met Dre but they added like 3 more songs to the album when he hooked up with Dre. Dre was stunned at how good he was so you know the shit would have worked for him regardless, but they put out that bullshit my name is track for what?????? suburban america that's who and that's why i say what i said eNe. don't trip on me. i am sure we have both had struggles and horrible memories. if you want to start a contest on who has had a life that has been less desirable, than make another thread homie
