8 Mile got everybody into rap battling to the point that the market for it swelled over night

Battles had been a thing but the consumer base wasn’t established until after 8mile.

I’m tryna hear some 808s not no men talking in silence

That battle rap corny

You’re gay

But does Eminem study battle raps for a living like Drake?

Don't worry people don't forget

I completely agree w this.. another reason why em is definitely a solidified legend regardless of what these insecure losers on this site think.. they can't rewrite history s*** doesn't work like thst..

he tried really hard to kill it with that total slaughter bullshit

dude had judges announcing who won the battle like its f***ing american idol or sum

He really the GOAT, haters in shambles

the only people influenced by 8 mile is those cringe white battle rappers in australia and s***

Disagree.. ur fav rappers favorite rapper is Eminem.. there's no denying it

they are not battle rapping

u sure?

I just meant by Eminem in general

A number of hip-hop and pop artists have cited Eminem as an influence, including Crooked I, Tech N9ne, Logic, Lil Wayne, Nicki Minaj, T.I., B.o.B, Jhené Aiko, 50 Cent,263 Usher,264 Earl Sweatshirt, Ab-Soul, Freddie Gibbs, Kendrick Lamar,265 Ed Sheeran,266 Lana Del Rey,268 Big Sean,269 J. Cole,270 Skylar Grey,271 Bubba Sparxxx,272 Asher Roth,273 Machine Gun Kelly,274 Yelawolf,275 Hopsin,276 Tyler, The Creator,277 Hollywood Undead,278 Chris Webby,279 Chance the Rapper280 Stalley, Royce da 5'9", Joe Budden, Tony Yayo, and The Game.281 Rap pioneers David Banner,282 Wiz Khalifa,283 Talib Kweli,284 Kool G. Rap,285 Redman,286 Kurupt, Dr. Dre, N.O.R.E., Rakim, Busta Rhymes and Jay Z have each called Eminem one of the greatest rappers of all time

lol this cap even tho OP is a twat

He wasn’t really influential tho. His style / production has never been distinct enough for him to be very influential. And influencing guys like Hopsin, logic, joyner Lucas isn’t really a good thing

Ew those "artist's," keep

Got a p**** in his feelings over some s*** I don’t even remember

nah bro I disagree entirely.. Eminem has inspired so many rappers like look at that list and I'm sure there's even more that aren't included..

If u don't like Eminem that's fine because his music ain't that great but he's solidified himself as a legend

U guys both cool, no arguments just positivity !

ok so keep Wayne, Kendrick, Cole, Drake, etc etc?

U just hating at this point n in denial cuz u don't fw eminem lol .. like I said the revisionist history is zoomer s*** n ppl who have no knowledge of rap
