Apparently Jay Z isn’t an Eminem fan. He recently told Music One how he really feels about Slim Shady and you can check out a few quotes below.
He said, “I don’t really understand the appeal of the dude… He dropped a few hot verses back in the day, but he’s been mad average for many years now. He is probably the most overrated rapper of all-time, but he did really well targeting his audience. He is a genius in that sense, but in the bigger scheme of things, there are a million rappers who were and are light-years ahead of him.”
Jay also doesn’t like the fact that he’s sold so many records, “When you really think about it, it’s ridiculous that Em has outsold so many rappers with real talent. 2Pac, Nas, Big and Kanye and myself would rap circles around him. I am not trying to take away from his talent, but in all reality, his catalogue can’t match mine.”
Just to put things into perspective, Eminem is not just the best selling rapper of all time, he’s the second best selling male solo artist ever. Eminem has sold around 44.91 million records worldwide.
We can’t wait to see how Eminem responds.
Jay Z's ego is light years ahead of his own talent. And Kanye is a fool.
Only – Envy -! Do not care about people with this feeling in the heart.
Weird considering he's always paid huge homage to Em. Unless I see a source for this I call bullshit.
What a tool, is he bringing out another shit album and trying to stir up some shit for extra sales ? Never been a fan of his
What he, Marshall Bruce Mathers III has accomplished is almost beyond human belief (since he is one he proves it human possible) but I think ALL males in his line of work shit their pants when trying to compare themselves. The numbers speak for themselves! Djiizes, the man is a genius! Emmazing.
Racist
I agree and disagree what jay.
I agree the em. Is a lil. Overrated. I mean. His new new stuff is ok. But for years with was STUPID. IT REALLY WAS.
But as far as jay. Goes. Him EITHER HE HAS NO REALLY PUT NEW SHIT. OUT AT ALL. WHEN I WHEN TO THE ONE THE RUN. TOUR HE DID A LOT OF ((( OLD SHIT))) BEYONCE IS THE ONE THAT I'D MAKING THAT FAMILY MONEY. JUST SAYING
Did he really say Kanye is better than eminem… Da fuuuq????!!!
BIG L was light years ahead of jay-z but that ain't none of my buisness
Em has sold around 100 million records worldwide! Approximately 45 millions in the U.S alone!
jealous much jayz? lol……
Jay Z who?
Jay-z is a hater, if it isn't him being glorified or him being able to use you to his advantage, he can't handle others having more success then him. Even kanye is more talented than Jay, all Sean Carter has is business skills and money but let's be realistic he has no humble heart or real character! Plus Slim would man slaughter him lyrically!
Just saying em puts it down way better
Obviously someone is insecure! Wheather eminem is 'overrated' or not it's not jay z's place to say shit! Maybe if he concentrated on his own music rather than talking about other peoples then maybe he might not get outsold! Meh actually he probably would! Douche!
EMIN3M IS A LYRICAL BEAST! GET DA FUK OUTTA HERE WITH THIS SHIT!
EMIN3M IS A LYRICAL BEAST! GET DA FUK OUTTA HERE WITH THIS SHIT!
CHECK THIS DETROIT ARTIST OUT….YOUTUBE/LIVETILDADEATHOFME!
Hahaha Hova your over I hope em shows jay what's up jay z was ok and New York loved him cuz big just died but in a battle come on I don't even think he would say that duz he not remember everlast, canabitch, icp
Binzino had a mag to try and stop em no luck he killed them all like where is ja rule not screaming like he's PAC shit 2pacs mom got eminem to finish and produce some 2pac shit not jayz plz make a song thro that nigga jigga in a trunk with Stan's wife and let the grave diggs deal with him
If i never hear jz again. Id be a happy man.
i hope eminem comes at jay-z with a diss record…. oh do i hope he does!
That holy grail shit was wack. As fuck not one hot song on that whole album. Let me use Justin Timberlake to revive my failing rap career
Fuck M&M
Jay -z is a bitter nigga sucks he needs the devil to help his ass be successful coward
The only thing big about jay z is his lips and ego ,not to mention beyonce is keeping his fame above water ,if it wasnt for beyonce we wouldnt behearing much of that name .and dont be mad its the fans hes relating to more then you cause you a punk tryna sell a leather jacket with you lable for that i mides as well buy bubba gump jeans haaa
please jay z continue to tell me how you sold crack on the streets when you were younger. The only reason he's still relevant is because of who he's married to.
Everyone knows the only way Jay Z could even be 1/4 a talent Eminem is, is if Beyonce writes his songs for him. Eminem is the KING of rap. Just saying
Never been a Jay fan n don't plan on it changing. His albums suck . Eminem is wayyy better
Lol hahaha ha jay needs to stop rapping he's new songs sucks ! Blue print 3 was crap ! Yeah em's relapse was crap too but he even said it was crap in the first place so.. theres that jay-z is just hatting
Big L rest in peace !
Ha iight Jay, you asked for it. Em's one of the greatest lyricists of all time. You've been below average since The Black Album. Kanye better? NOOO. Tupac wasn't better either. You can make the argument for Nas and Biggie. I couldn't even put Jay or Kanye close to Biggie or Nas lmao Jay thinks if he says he's the best enough people will believe it.
Its funny to me cause nobody talk about any of them rappers Eminem knows how to capture an audience because he's good. How else would he capture?? What an idiot.
Nas served Jay Z proper. I hope M makes jay Z cry and they get it on video.
Did JAY Z REALLY just say Kanye West is better than Eminem? Jay-Z is a fucking retard.
Stfup jay z you song is sucks Eminem is white and the best rapper ever …
Kanye? Rap circles around slim? Smh please…. in what alternate universe can kanye rap?
Bam, that hit him right in the dick! Lol
Lmao jay wouldn't have a deal if big L didn't get killed
I would love if we could get a good old fashioned rap beef between these two. Eminem would shred Jay Z worse than Nas did.
Jay z career done now once Eminem dogs him is next album !!
To all of you who believed this, I have a bridge in Brooklyn that I'd like to sell you…
I don't think you guys understand where Jays coming from. He's talking about being a rapper in general. Your overall look, style, creativity, just how you come off in general. He's not talking about a rappers lyrical wittiness condescending personality. Jays not down with the corny shit. He chases the paper. He's a fucking hustler, a genius. An entrepreneur, not a poet. An overall cooler person than Em.
I happened to like many of eminem rap songs. I like two of Kenye and none of Jay-Z.
First he makes song with him (Renegade).
Then he gets crushed in it.
Admits that he got crushed.
Says in interview that Eminem is overrated.
Fuck outta here.
This is fake.
Never heard jay dis em. Why would he allow someone in his camp make music with em if he had a issue. Trying to get bullshit started
I don't believe this shit one bit.i would like to hear it from his mouf.em and jay z have the upmost respect for one another….I think somebody wrote this article for views.
Jay-Z is funny. Cuz he collabed with em before. Now he hating all of the sudden lmao. This is bs. I respect the greats. Eminem has made the biggest impact in hip-hop and the entire music industry. Jay-Z can't come no where near close to him.
Because he white that makes him the best .you stfup
Jay Z??? Oh the former crack dealer married to Beyonce.
Eminem has sold 45 mill in the U.S. alone. Worldwide is double that get your facts straight publisher.
Jay z is one of the worst rappers i can think of, hes up there with the likes of pitbull, etc. his lyrics are wack i mean is he high or something?!
I bet Jay Z has something to do with big L's death in the first place
just like I believe P Diddy has something to do with biggie smalls death
Em will kill jay z in a song just to prove his point
Jay Z bahahaha. … He doesn't even compare to Ems turds lol…what a joke
Amen
This article is fake
It's quite funny that jay z's side hoKanye said 2pac was the most overrated rapper of all time.. Jealousy really is a curse.
This isn't true it's just to get you dumb ass people mad…. It's well known Jay is a huge fan of Em dick heads
I would love to see j and Kanye compete in a rap battle with em haha!!!
also did a song with him called ''Syllables'' which is even more recent.
At least Eminem raps about real stuff. Not just name brands, how much money he has, or how many chicks he can get. Real life.
