Micah Parsons calls Eminem the most influential rapper of all time Posted on March 3, 2023March 3, 2023 By Remy Gelenidze American football outside linebacker for the Dallas Cowboys of the National Football League Micah Parsons has recently weighted in “Jay-Z VS Eminem: Who had bigger impact on hip-hop culture” discussion.It all started when former professional basketball player, Jamal Crawford, who played in the National Basketball Association, drew the parallel to hip-hop to rank his top five NBA players of all time and used Eminem and JAY-Z’s impact as an example and said: “In my top five, the dominance outweighs the number. You can not change the game and say this person has more points than me, he is better. It is beyond that. Jay-Z’s affect on hip-hop is bigger than any album sales Eminem will have. That is just how it goes.” It seems Don Canon does not agree. 50 Cent also stated his opinion when The Hip-Hop Wolf Instagram page posted Crawford’s interview and asked fans if they agree to the statement or not. Under the comment section, Fifty replied: “Ha, bulls–t.” with Sneezing Face emoji.No Jumper podcast host Almighty Suspect also denied Crawford’s statement: “Bro, I can name like six Eminem clones right now. Hopsin, DAX, Logic, MGK, that white McDonald dude that white dude who’s is making If-I-Was-Black songs. Joyner Lucas is one of them too. That’s the six. I’m not naming rappers that look like Eminem. I’m naming rappers who are actual clones of Eminem. I just named six. Tell me, name me, six Jay-Z clones.” Battle rapper Math Hoffa avoided the question with a clever answer: “[Bigger impact had] Whoever mutually inspired both of them. Like LL Cool J, Rakim, Bigg Daddy Kane. Em said he was inspired by AZ.”Micah Parsons seems to be the most straightforward and frankly in sharing his opinion on Twitter: “Eminem really might be the most influential rapper I ever heard!.” Check the tweet below:Eminem really might be the most influential rapper I ever heard!— Micah Parsons (@MicahhParsons11) March 2, 2023 RELATED ARTICLESMark Wahlberg: Millyz & Token are Next; Eminem is GOATMarch 16, 2026Black Child Speaks on Eminem and 50 Cent’s Beef with Ja Rule and Murder Inc.March 15, 2026Eminem’s “Without Me” Hits 3 Billion Streams on SpotifyMarch 14, 2026Tom MacDonald mentions Eminem in 3 songs off his new albumMarch 14, 202650 Cent drops unreleased song, teases new album titleMarch 13, 2026Papoose name-drops Eminem again in a new 50 Cent dissMarch 12, 2026Share this: Share on Facebook (Opens in new window) Facebook Share on X (Opens in new window) X Share on Reddit (Opens in new window) Reddit Share on Threads (Opens in new window) Threads Share on WhatsApp (Opens in new window) WhatsApp Share on Pinterest (Opens in new window) Pinterest Share on Tumblr (Opens in new window) Tumblr Share on Telegram (Opens in new window) Telegram Share on LinkedIn (Opens in new window) LinkedIn Eminemjay-zMicah Parsons
