There is only 2 songs that I didn't like on this album. WTP and Seduction. I'm not really feeling the chorus for Cinderella Man or Love the Way you Lie but **** is good. Has anybody heard the bonus track Here We Go? Guy is bananas.
Even the though joke was kind of, mellow. I agree, Eminem is in a different league than both of them. Probably the 2nd best rapper in the game.

I mean Jay-Z is a good rapper and all...But I just don't like his style of flo. A lot of the time it just sounds like he's talking. Doesn't really carry the passion like Eminem So in my opinion Eminem>Jay-Z
Fail. Eminem is way better than Jay-Z. Half the time Jay-Z is just spitting incoherent **** that only makes sense in his head. He is talented, but he doesn't have near as much versatility as Eminem, or the lyrical skills. Now if you would have said Nas, it would have been hard to argue.
Some people don't like his flow, but must do. He is by far, the most successful rapper. I'd give the lyrics department to Em but not the flow (I hate when he sings his hooks), sales or ability to constantly make singles.
LOL how is it a fail if most people widely consider him the BRA. I'll counter all you claims. Spit incoherent ****? I've understood every one of Hov's songs I've ever listened to, I've never had to look up the lyrics, we're talking about Jay-Z not Master P. Doesen't have versatility? Two (out of many) very different flows. <object width="480" height="385"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/96sFW-3vGv4&hl=en_US&fs=1&"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/96sFW-3vGv4&hl=en_US&fs=1&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="480" height="385"></embed></object> <object width="640" height="385"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/etl9kkIGaHo&hl=en_US&fs=1&"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/etl9kkIGaHo&hl=en_US&fs=1&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="640" height="385"></embed></object> Yes he doesen't have the lyrics Em does, I'll admit but people need to remember that Jay-Z hasn't actually ever written any of his songs, he comes up with them on the spot and memorizes them. Illmatic is my favorite all time album. If Nas wouldn't of flopped on Nastradamus until Hip Hop is Dead he would off been number one on many peoples minds.
Jay-Z should feel fortunate that Eminem was on drugs therefore releasing sub-par material (encore) and even relapse, Em's mind wasnt yet clear, was still flushin them out. Everyone in the rap game should feel threatened with Recovery. Its rediculous.
I refute your claim that drugs makes for bad music. There are tons of great albums that have been completed while on drugs. But do agree Eminem is way better then Jay-Z. I would even say that Kanye is better, but I put production value along with rapping. And speaking of Kanye, has anybody seen his Wikipedia page for Good Ass Job. Kanye is not the only producer on it? WTF is this mess. One of the producers is Soulja Boy...........please be wrong.
