The difference is MMLP, TES, and SSLP are regarded as rap classics by blacks and whites.
Y'all can miss me with that "only preteen suburban white boys listen to Eminen" or, wait, "40 year old construction white construction workers". I'm a black female in her 20s and have been a life-long fan of Eminem and I know PLENTY of black people who love him. Just because you don't like him, which I wouldn't expect many from a predominantly gay forum to, doesn't mean that the masses don't. It's clear they do. White people aren't the only ones out buying his ****.
By the way, Eminem is highly respected by his BLACK colleagues.
As I said to Jose.

Black people do like him, but I'm saying, let's not try to brag about Eminem selling 100x as much as every other rapper and sweeping award and act like it's not because a major part of it is that he's white.

'Can't Hold Us' was a huge #1, and 'Same Love' will be a classic purely off the fact it's a pro-gay anthem from a Rapper who released it at the height of his career.
They are all still blinded by nostalgia telling themselves he is sill the same talent as he used to be 10 years ago but a decade later and he still hasn't found anything new to rap about
The joke is that Michael Jackson is a raging pedophile (it's not really a joke, since it was true),
and he would have watched "Charlie Bit My Finger" at least 40 million times.

Lollipop only went #1 in the US and top 5 in New Zealand. It's 5x platinum in the US. Lose Yourself went #1 in over 15 countries and top 10 in like 20. It won an Academy Award and a 2 Grammys. Like, really? Quit trolling, Damien.

Can't Hold Us was a huge #1 yeah, but that doesn't mean it'll be a classic by that logic most to every song Katy has gotten to #1 will be a classic as well and Same Love will maybe, possibly, only be remembered by a couple of suburban gay kids if Macklemore becomes remembered

Oh, i know Lose Yourself is bigger and more memorable than any Wayne song. Was just messing with you.
Still love Wayne though!
