    Fort Minor isn't a group. If it was a group, then the tracks wouldn't be appended with (featuring Styles of Beyond).

    Thats preciselly my point, i believe mike is more "art talented" (i like eminem too ).
    Mike is growing and learning and getting feedback all the time, he just made the score for the raid, he paints, he make those shoes designs.
    I typed a "show" because eminem is now inmersed in the world of production (with a black suit) imo.

    Well it depends on how you define better. What makes Eminem better than Jay-Z? Is it by his lyrics? How he delivers them? The message he portrays? The fact that he's white? (Not serious with the last one).

    I am a huge fan of both Eminem and Jay-Z.

    To me I base my opinion of Jay-Z being better than Eminem through his lyrics. Jay uses double and even triple entendres quite often. There's meaning behind his songs, especially of late, even if you don't think there is.

    Eminem is great. However it's a bit of a reach to say he's underrated given the amount of success he's had since he signed under Dr. Dre.

    Yes, my concerns about Shinoda's rapping after hearing the single have been greatly alleviated :)

    In terms of Mike's raps I think It's going down, Waiting For The End, Papercut, Blackbirds, High Voltage, and Faint (demo) are his best lyrically.

    I'm sorry if I can't understand sarcasm in a text. I try not to add any inferred tone into things when I read them, unless previously specified. For example, my sister always adds her own imaginary tone to my texts, so when I just say "K", or "Sure thing", she assumes I'm being a dick about it and yells at me later. So I just read everything monotone to avoid confusion.

    unless the guy was trolling or being sarcastic.

    out of all his albums only one of them went to #1. and most of them sold crappy, plus no one remembers anything but U can't touch this

    Now Bliss, why would anyone possibly say that MC Hammer is untouchable?
