Eminem reveals his list of GOAT Rappers on No Life Shaq Question.
Eminem shared his picks for the best rappers of all time on Twitter over the weekend. No Life Shaq, a YouTuber, sparked the debate with a video series in which he encouraged rappers to share their favorite emcees. The popular Youtuber Shaquille Davis aka No Life Shaq, who’s famous for his reactions to Hip-Hop tracks, DM’ed 30 rappers asking them about their GOAT rappers list, “Who is the greatest rapper of all-time?” he wrote. He made a video where he reveals who did not respond to his message, and Eminem was one of them.
Eminem responded on Twitter with a list of rappers he considers GOATs, but the inclusion of Redman twice probably confirms that his opinion of the Def Squad member hasn’t changed.
Eminem has previously revealed a list of his favorite rappers, rapping in his 2002 song ‘Till I Collapse’: “I got a list, here’s the order of my list that it’s in / It goes, Reggie, Jay-Z, Tupac and Biggie/ Andre from Outkast, Jada, Kurupt, Nas, and then me.”

However, Eminem publicly reveals a long list of the greatest of all-time rappers according to him in response to the tweet by No Life Shaq. KXNG Crooked, who also featured in Eminem’s list, also reacted to it with a Gif. Check out the GOAT Rappers list by Eminem in a couple of tweets below.

Eminem added some more in a later tweet, including LL Cool J, Nas, Joyner Lucas, Kendrick Lamar, J. Cole, Andre 3000, Rakim, and Big Daddy Kane, after realizing he had missed a few.
Eminem would be on the road right now touring in favour of his astoundingly good 2020 album, Music to Be Murdered By, under normal circumstances. Slim Shady, on the other hand, has found plenty of ways to remain occupied even amid the coronavirus outbreak. He subsequently discovered a house invader in his living room after donating Mom’s Spaghetti to Detroit health care workers. Em had previously written a poignant essay in which he paid respect to Tupac, calling him a “true genius.”
Plus redman, LL, nas, joyner, kendrick, cole, andre, rakim, kane…

Em first entered the G.O.A.T. debate in 2002 with the song “‘Til I Collapse.” He spit, “I got a list.” “Reggie [Redman], Jay-Z, 2Pac, and Biggie/ André from OutKast, Jada, Kurupt, Nas, and then me,” says the rapper. He’s provided with an update, albeit in the rap game, 18 years later.
Em recently expressed his admiration for Pac, describing him as the “greatest songwriter of all time.” On SiriusXM’s Shade45, Em said, “Debate what you want about MC skills and all that, because he had that too.”
No Life Shaq has been DMing 30 rappers to see who they consider to be the greatest of all time. In addition to Eminem, he received responses from Joyner Lucas, Method Man, Polo G, Tech N9ne, Hopsin, and others.
In his 2002 song “Till I Collapse,” Eminem rapped, “I got a list, here’s the order of my list that it’s in / It goes, Reggie, Jay-Z, Tupac and Biggie/ Andre from Outkast, Jada, Kurupt, Nas and then me.” At the start of 2020, the rapper dropped his new album, “Music To Be Murdered By,” as a surprise.
“‘Til I Collapse” was released in 2002 on his fourth studio album, The Eminem Show. It is the album’s 18th song and has the hook performed by American rapper Nate Dogg. Despite never being issued as a single, the song has charted multiple times throughout the world and is one of Eminem’s most played songs on Spotify, with over 1 billion listens as of February17, 2021.
Em highlighted the upcoming rappers he thinks are the most promising in an interview with Variety earlier this year. “We had Young M.A. on the album [Music To Be Murdered By], and she’s definitely one of the new artists that I’m super excited about — every time she puts something out, I listen,” he told the outlet. “And the guys we have signed to our label, Griselda, that’s exciting. YBN Cordae, he’s dope.”
Now No Life Shaq also shared a video on it with the title, “EMINEM REPLIED TO US ON TWITTER & GAVE ME A HEART ATTACK.”
At the start of 2020, the rapper dropped his new album, “Music To Be Murdered By,” as a surprise. NME noted in its review of the album that Eminem was “getting old disgracefully,” and that “the 47-year-old has surprise-released another album.”
Throughout the epidemic, Eminem has been donating money to coronavirus relief programmes, and he recently issued a rallying appeal to his hometown of Detroit to conquer the virus.
