Eminem's dominance without having to rely on club songs

In an interview with Angie Martinez, Chris Rock revealed that Eminem is not in his Top 5 Rapper List because Em does not release any music that Chris rock would want to listen to in the club.

Pot-Kettle
Eminem has been in the game since 1996. He is considered the best selling artist of the 2000s, he was the first rapper to win three consecutive Grammy's for Best  Rap Album and he was the first rapper to when an Academy award for Best Original Song (Lose Yourself).  

My top five comedians list does not include Chris Rock, right now:
1. Kevin Hart
2. Louis C.K.
3. Hannibal Buress
4. Joe Rogan
5. Russell Peters

Seasoned Vets
Chris Rock has been in the game since 1984. Rock has won an Emmy Award for is HBO special, he has also won 2 Grammys for his comedy albums and he created the successful sitcom: Everybody Hates Chris.

Similar to the way that Chris Rock explains to Kevin Hart (video below) that he is "actually famous" Eminem can do the same to hip-hop's current top five: Nikki Minaj, Drake, Lil' Wayne, Kanye West and Kendrick Lamarr.  They are relevant right now yet they all understand their roles when Eminem's name is mentioned.  



Respect
Nicki Minaj ask, "Who had Eminem on the first album?" On the track want some more. Weather rock meant to disregard M&Ms legacy or not, we can all use the reminder every now and then.
