Dublin Ireland here and I play Rakim on the speaker all the time. Untouchable rapper poet
Rakim’s flow is absolutely ridiculous. Like he was born rapping. He attaches to the beat like nothing ever seen before.
wait till you here lupe's "hurt me soul" the way he carried rhymes and attached them to the beat and melody was fkn ridiculous
@Tomas Diaco hes better than eminem from far
The one true GOAT
@NEW WORLD well this is not about white supremacy wtf? I dont think hip hop is about skin color, i disagree that you think i say em is goat cause of the industry says it. I am saying it. About rock genre I think Chuck B is Goat and beatles and the stones, but it is about each person opinion. Like I said I think em did everything to be a goat, a lot of songs with so many themes, his life, we can see him growing up as a person and dad and everything is reflected in his songs, all the connection between people and his art is amazing. Also his lyricism has evolved so much. He is in another level. He reaches technical perfection like old school rappers like rakim, jeru the damajah etc. He is surrounded by the best artists, idk man thats what i think, no need to get upset. Of course we can argue about lyricism between the R and Em cause they are fuckin insane, playing in other league you know. In th3 end is not about who is the best, just to enjoy and keep spreading hip hop culture and love.
Rakim has the cleanest flow ever (clean as in smooth)
If hip hop was a person, it looks like rakim.
Perfect representation 🔥🔥
Lol no Eminem is hip hop he’s the king
@@urbanistgod man stop it please. Dont compare rakim to em. Em is product of rakim.
Brian Dwi Em was certainly influenced by Rakim but his talent and rap skills are definitely better. Rakim is more like a poet while Em is an incredible lyricist and master the flow
@@urbanistgod Stop! Rakim is better than Eminem, however, Eminem is always a lyrical legend
