The Game defends Eminem against Dr. Umar comments

The Game has recently sat down with DJ VLAD where the Compton rapper responded to Dr. Umar saying Eminem can’t be one of the greatest rappers of all time because he’s white.

“I don’t agree with Dr. Umar. with him saying that. Eminem is undoubtedly one of the greatest rappers ever for obvious reasons. Again, Michael Jordan probably can’t even f–kin’ dunk from free-throw line today so if we wanna say Eminem’s not great today motherf–kin’ Jordan can’t f–kin’ jump from the free-throw line.” said The Game.

Then he continued: “We all get older but that does not mean we don’t respect or don’t understand the magnitude of what somebody did when they were at their beginning and at their pick. So Eminem is for sure one of the best rappers ever. I don’t give a f–k if he’s white, black or whatever. Dr. Umar seems to be pretty educated and he also has an opinion and a platform. I respect his opinion but I don’t got to f–king agree with it. And I’m not even… I have not seen Eminem in 20 years and we had our little back and forth which is all good. Still it is what it is. I’mma keep it a buck. I’m not gonna lie. Eminem is one of the greatest rappers of all time. You can take this sound and use it against me but I don’t give a f–k. It is what it is.”

“But Eminem respects me at the end of the day. If you ask him and he’s going to be honest, he gonna tell you that he respects me and my pen game. He knows what I’m capable of and that is what it is. Dr. Umar had an opinion and I don’t disrespect it but I don’t agree.” The Game added. You can watch the new interview after the jump below:
