What the fuck is the title "best rapper in the world" even mean?
Lyrically?
"I'm not afraid, to take a stand, everybody, come take my hand."
Yeah. Lyrical genius.
And he can't be the most talented in the world at just rapping in general.
Yeah, take his lyrics from the chorus of one of his most mainstream songs. That's definitely fair.
You know what, the only people who doubt Em are the ones who never listened to him freestyle and never heard his old shit. Songs like Guilty Conscience, Stan, Just Don't Give a F, stuff like that. THAT was fucking amazing, lyrically. Even most of his stuff today is pretty damn good lyrically, but you took the CHORUS of ONE song and tried to make it a point. I don't care if you like him or not, I really don't, but that just made you look like an idiot.
Oh, here's a FREESTYLE (yeah, a real on the spot improv freestyle) that he did in 2009.

Listen from around 2:54 on. You can say that you don't like his voice or his style or whatever, but saying that he isn't a lyrical genius is pure stupidity.
