Melle Mel: “I can easily beat Eminem in a rap battle”

Iconic rapper, Grandmaster Flash and the Furious Five’s Melle Mel has recently set down with DJ VLAD where the two talked about battling Eminem:

“I would easily beat Eminem in a battle. It would be the easiest thing I ever did. Easy. Technically he is a great rapper but I’m the greatest. I know how to write it. When I put it down it’s gonna stay down. It would be the easiest thing that I ever did. And when people bring that up, just say ‘you can’t beat Eminem’. I’ve been doing this all my life. I don’t even write how I used to write but still, easy. Rap is my destiny. Everybody that’s out there rapping, they all trying to do something that I did 40 years ago.” said Melle Mel.

Then he continued: “Rakim was one of the rappers that could rap when we were rapping back then. He definitely is and he changed the game. He was rapping different but when I heard Eminem rapping, I could rap the same. The game didn’t change. It wouldn’t stop nothing. They toss around greatness to much. If you want to be great you have to change something.

“Eminem is great rapper why there is no 50 great white rappers? Why nobody saying who is top 50 white rappers? Cause Eminem changed nothing. I’m not saying he is not a good rapper but what I’m saying is what I did was greatness.” Melle Mel added.

Nasty C tells Eminem not to pay attention to his recent video

Couple of days ago South African rapper Nasty C, who is signed to Def Jam Records did an Instagram live for his fans where the rapper threw some shades at Eminem.

“I can spank Eminem. The reason I say this cause recent Eminem is not really relatable. He is dope and bars are out of this world but he is not relatable. If you are rapper, you go crazy over it, if you are normal person it’s like you get at the end of the verse and you are like ‘what he just said? what the f**k was that.’ Me, on the other hand, I can do both. I can totally make no sense to a normal person or I can be super relatable. I can spank Eminem. I know you guys don’t believe that but don’t doubt me like that, dawg.”

In his recent Instagram story, Nasty C apologized (kind of) to the Rap God and asked him not to pay attention to that video: “Dear Eminem. I love you. If you see the video gong around right now, do not pay no mind to it. Just laugh about it and move on. Ngyak’saba.” Reportedly the last word in Zulu language means ‘I am scared.’ Check out the screenshot of his story below:

Royce 5’9″ tells his thoughts on 42 Dugg, Kash Doll, Boldy James & other Detroit rappers

Detroit has produced renowned figures in hip-hop from Eminem to J Dilla, and the current scene is buzzing with fresh talent. Genius recruited with Royce da 5’9″ to give his take on some of the new rap music coming out of his city and decide which artist deserved his cosign.

“I love 43 Dugg, man. He’s real. He’s bad a** lil ni**a. Just to be honest. He personifies a very common voice in the community even though he stands out like a motherf**ker. He has been himself. He has been as Detroit as f**k. That’s our Queen. I love her.”

“Kash Doll is my baby. I love her. She could do no wrong. She is her. Super consistent. Never heard anything that I needed to criticize. I think once Kash Doll starts releasing her albums people will be able to appreciate her lyricism a lot more. She’s on her way. She kills everything she is on. She is lyrically talented.”

“I like this kid BabyTron. He was at my studio recently. I just met him and I felt like I was meeting Lil Baby. I like what he’s doing in terms of sonically, the direction he’s going. I think that’s interesting direction for young Detroiter to go. I’m not really with the whole rapping-off-beat-on-purpose thing. I can’t listen to that but I like the fact that they are trying to do something different.”

“Boldy James is one of the best Detroit rappers right now. I know Boldy personally and I know he can do this s**t standing on his hands.”

“BabyFace Ray will go pop sooner or later. I f**k with him and his movement real tough. He has always been focused. That’s not Detroit sound. That’s just him.”

“Weeze, this little ni**a is crazy man. I love ‘Law N Order’ beat. I don’t even know where the hell they getting these. I love his approach and my cosign is Weeze.”
