The Game Stands Up for Eminem Amid Dr. Umar's Comments
The Game recently engaged in a conversation with DJ VLAD, addressing Dr. Umar's comments about Eminem's status in the rap pantheon due to his race.
Disagreeing with Dr. Umar's stance, The Game unequivocally asserted Eminem's position as one of the greatest rappers of all time, regardless of his race.
Drawing an analogy to Michael Jordan's basketball prowess, he emphasized that greatness transcends age and physical capabilities, highlighting Eminem's enduring impact on the genre.
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.”
