I am not a rapper

Rap, although not very popular with my parents' generation, is my favorite genre of music. I think the all time King of Rap is Eminem (not because of our shared skin color, I have legitimate reasons). Eminem, or Marshall Mathers came from a broken, poor, horribly dysfunctional family, making his ride to the top even more impressive. First off, his flow is unmatched, containing speed but always in control. His lyrics contain thoughtful content (although this can be masked by his vulgarity occasionally) about his past and current situations, and political and social problems. He was also the first GOOD white rapper, and changed the game forever. There will always be arguments that rappers such as Tupac, Biggie, Jay-Z, or even Kanye hold the title for best rapper, but in my opinion Eminem raps smarter and made much more of an impact than any other rapper in history.
