Explain how Eminem is still relevant even though he is worse than 50 then. And I don't really disagree with you, 50's music was kind of basic and unremarkable compared to people like Wayne or Kanye. But Eminem has been atrocious for years, maybe even since his first album, yet people still love him... I think him being white was a massive part of his success but it can't explain why people are still so obsessed with him all of these years later, because s***ty acts like Vanilla Ice, Mackelmore, Machine Gun Kelly, etc. are all irrelevant. Except for Mac Miller ofc, because he actually made good music
Because Em was actually talented in his prime. It's the same reason people give Wayne passes.
Their primes were insane and its enough respect still left over to keep a float.
Not to mention Em rarely drops
