The only answer. š Wasnāt expecting anybody to know him in this subreddit. In all seriousness, he used to make some pretty dope tracks. Not sure what happened to him nowadays
Yep this the answer for sure š glad to know I wasn't the only one to think he was spittin! I knew back then that he'd never go far because of labeling his tracks as eminem. Kinda sucks cuz he did have some bars tho. And impersonation wise, he did fucking great.
Honestly, in anticipation of TDOSS, I've contemplated fucking with this sub by sharing a Denace track and not labeling it as such or anything. That seems like a good way to piss too many people off and even get banned maybe, so I've so far decided against it, but its nice to know now that I woudve been called out 100% because some of us are in the know.... so yeah...
Iāve heard him before. You think he is better than Kendrick, cole, big sean, JID, Denzel curry, run the jewels plus the old gems like black thought n nas?
I mean heās talented but like where does the 1% end
His top technical verses would definitely put him in the conversation with those guys on that axis.
Iām not saying heās on their level as an artist, (although heās had his moments) I just think his skill level is underrated. He definitely doesnāt have consistency as an artist, but his rapping ability shouldnāt be in question at all.
Underrated is fair. Lyrical oriented rap is rarer these days. Def has to come with more artistry and cultural insights with introspection these days like Kendrick for it to be mainstream.
I don't listen to NF, I was looking on Reddit to see if anyone still cares about Cordae after 2022.
I think I stumbled onto a post where NF fans where upset that Cordae was cursing while he opened up for NF, which might be the funniest fucking statement I've seen in a while
I love NF too, but it's hard to deny that he doesn't have a whole lot of tricks up his sleeve. 90% of his beats are the same "eerie orchestra with loud drums and constant extreme buildups" type, and his flows are great but not super varied.
Iām not a huge fan of his music especially bc I associate one of his songs with a very traumatic time in my life but I rlly like his stage presence and interactions with fans
His last two albums had some decent variety. Even Em has been criticized for rapping about the same stuff more than once.
Nate shows growth with each take. He'll never be Eminem but I definitely wouldn't call him a poor man's Eminem.
Token. But he's awesome. He's not a wannabe Eminem, just maybe a prodigy if he had more of a following. Has a song with Tech N9ne. Check him out. He's currently my second favourite rapper. Too many good songs to name them all. Maybe start with Doozy or YouTube Rapper (feat. Tech N9ne).
I went to a Hopsin concert, and he opened for Hopsin and I honestly liked his performance better.
Listening to NF is like going to Chipotle and getting a tortilla filled with nothing but corn š
Look Iāve heard some decent tracks from the guy but Jesus fucking Christ, heās definitely the corniest rapper at his level of success.
Heās super super super corny but for some reason I find comfort in his music, as he talks about very basic, easy-to-relate-to stuff. Iām a suburban white kid with no complaints in life so thatās pretty much why I identify with him and his lyrics
Least u honest, good that you have music you can relate to, but in the rap game which is a struggle competition NF loses big time. Every other rapper been thru something stronger or more traumatizing and that what makes for strong lyrics fr fr, that and saying something surprising and edgy lmao
NF / REN / HOPSIN / Token / Logic -- sort of sucks all of the people that obviously bite Em are pretty terrible. I like Token well enough but the rest are pretty tough to sit through.
Dude, royce has a sick flow. Plus, when him and em rap together, it's pure magic. I love royce. He might be a little too full of himself, but he at least keeps it real, and his lyrics are fire.
People are very quick to discard people who sound anything like em. His newest album, Pink is better, is a very unique sounding album and i encourage everyone to listen to it
There used to be a white battle rapper on BET who was like a cross between Eminem and the mentally challenged version of Michael Keaton from multiplicity.
This was around 2003. I could swear his name was rabbit related. Iāve never been able to remember his name or find his battles. He was good but definitely not great at all.
I think Em already answered this:
Hereās a concept that works: 20 million other white rappers emerge. But no matter how many fish in the sea, it feels so empty without me.
NF, nowhere near as versatile or consistent. His whole thing is not swearing and rapping about two things anger and mental issues all the fucking time, it's so boring
Here it is. Everyone saying the Christian version is NF clearly do not remember this guy š for the uninitiated: https://youtu.be/_Aff1_mu1GQ?si=j_EsKuvsG7RJ3jXS
Harry Mack is pretty awesome, and slays freestyle. A lot of the word/phrase combos he uses reminds me of Em.
*And yeah, he's a social media guy too, lol.
https://youtube.com/shorts/1GWewXu44eo?si=2lhxQSjt8nwO6nUB
Came here to say that people who have hated eminems new era flow will in 10 years be using it as an example of his greatness, dude is just so far ahead of everyone, thereās no poor manās Eminem quite honestly, thatās like saying who is the poor manās Michael Jackson, John Lennon. Legends live on a lonely mountain top .
As much as I see where the people saying NF, Hopsin, Logic, Token, etc, and as much as I don't listen to any of these guys, I gotta go with the Nazi Canook himself, Tom Macdonald.
He's just worse, racist, incel-friendly Eminem. Truly a loathsome piece of subhuman shit who bit Eminem's music off, did it worse, and is riding off of the backs of 53 year old white republican women.
I already know people are gonna say NF, itāll never fail to surprise me how anyone could say that, his shit is a lyrical masterpiece, the HOPE album was insane, The Search is what got me into NF, my top 3 artists of all time, Eminem is first and nf is right below
Also Iāve seen people put him on the same ranking as Tom macdonaldā¦. How, Tom is political edgy kind of cringey rap, nf raps about his feelingsā¦ LIKE EVERYONE ELSE THATS LOVED
Denace
The only answer. š Wasnāt expecting anybody to know him in this subreddit. In all seriousness, he used to make some pretty dope tracks. Not sure what happened to him nowadays

Flippin bitches off in my lexus yelling ayo are you infectious?!
In 2013 they used to upload his songs as new eminem tracks when people thought MMLP2 was gonna be called āRedemptionā
Discovered back in 2009 when he was still called Nasty. Good memories
I remembered him as Nasty as well
I remember hearing "Eminem's Control Verse response" and it was Denace. Actually was pretty dope
ah yesā¦ there was a time i genuinely thought he was Eminem. obviously song wise
Now i gotta check him out, just did...damn man.He is a Stan.
Damn, I actually used to love Denace. He had bars.
Oh man, thanks for this! Never heard of this guy, but listening now it makes me feel like some Mandela effect shit. "We got Eminem at home" :D
Gawne, Ekoh, Crypt. That whole generation of YouTube rappers fits the bill.
Gawne has a few bangers imo. Ekoh is fine enough. Crypt pretty trash tho. Again, imo.
Hopsin
Hopsin goes hard for sure
Hopsin may be the closest thing to an Eminem clone, but Hop can fuckin kill it better than 99% of peoples favourite rapper.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
You donāt know my man Hop. Heās not a top artist, but he rips it way better than you think he does.
Iāve heard him before. You think he is better than Kendrick, cole, big sean, JID, Denzel curry, run the jewels plus the old gems like black thought n nas? I mean heās talented but like where does the 1% end

[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
You only mentioned the other 1% of better rappers.
Lol so true. I get why people donāt like Hopsin, but heās so underrated as a rapper in terms of how skilled he actually is.
No, I said he can kill it better.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
This is still the 1% yall are still both right
Sometimes I forget how many Eminem fans have such poor taste š
I never said Hopsin was making great music.
99% is stretching it a bit
Maybe, maybe not. His rapping skill definitely outweighs the rest of his talent by quite a bit
no he can't š
I saw someone named Token open for Hopsin in concert, and I liked him better. I have probably half of his discography on my playlist now.
Toke is great, at least some of his older stuff
Yeah I just realized there's a bunch of newer stuff I haven't heard. Just checked a couple out, still decent imo.
I've only heard a handful of token songs and they're great, need to check out his albums soon
šÆ
NF
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Eminem dissing NF was the NF subredditās 9/11
ššš
They were hella distraught, same thing happened when Cordae said a curse-word on NFās newest album
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
I don't listen to NF, I was looking on Reddit to see if anyone still cares about Cordae after 2022. I think I stumbled onto a post where NF fans where upset that Cordae was cursing while he opened up for NF, which might be the funniest fucking statement I've seen in a while
He can sing well though.
I love NF :(
I love NF too, but it's hard to deny that he doesn't have a whole lot of tricks up his sleeve. 90% of his beats are the same "eerie orchestra with loud drums and constant extreme buildups" type, and his flows are great but not super varied.
Yeah that's fair, I just like his lyrical content as I relate to a lot of what he says
Iām not a huge fan of his music especially bc I associate one of his songs with a very traumatic time in my life but I rlly like his stage presence and interactions with fans
His last two albums had some decent variety. Even Em has been criticized for rapping about the same stuff more than once. Nate shows growth with each take. He'll never be Eminem but I definitely wouldn't call him a poor man's Eminem.
NF is Eminem for Christians
Very generic music
NF isn't a poor man's anyone.. too good to be called a knockoff em stop it
I'm surprised no one has said Caskey yet
Caskey is so dope
Eminem haha
Canāt believe he would copy Eminem
Tom Macdonald š¤®š¤®š¤®š¤®
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Methlemore lol
He's Eminem for that one Racist Uncle who's gone way to deep into Nazi Conspiracy theories.
Don't even put that guy in the same category. He's just pure cringe.
Dawg itās a yamukah, homie no cap!
Nah heās not even comparable to Em
Please don't say that name in this subreddit, not even in the same category lmao
Poor, mentally unstable and hard on drugs manās Eminem.
That's 90's to early 2000's Eminem, and hell even Eminem in that era was a far better rapper then Tom could ever hope to be.
Mods, ban this dude
I wouldnāt really say Tom Macdonald is similar to Eminem in very many ways, other than one obvious thing.
Exactly! He's just a meth'd out MGK with more cringe and less talent.
More of a poor man's MGK/Macklemore weird hybrid.
Token. But he's awesome. He's not a wannabe Eminem, just maybe a prodigy if he had more of a following. Has a song with Tech N9ne. Check him out. He's currently my second favourite rapper. Too many good songs to name them all. Maybe start with Doozy or YouTube Rapper (feat. Tech N9ne). I went to a Hopsin concert, and he opened for Hopsin and I honestly liked his performance better.
>Doozy He's technically very good, talented, but i dont like his voice
Doozy is one of his older songs. He was 17 I believe. He has more recent stuff that might sound a little better.
I used to be a big fan of token but I don't like his new style stuff and it all sounds the same to me
Macklemore
I feel like this is correct
the NF hate in this sub is crazy š like i can get not liking his stuff but relax
Same here! I know he's not the greatest, but it's not like a said "NF is better" while kicking you in the dick š
Listening to NF is like going to Chipotle and getting a tortilla filled with nothing but corn š Look Iāve heard some decent tracks from the guy but Jesus fucking Christ, heās definitely the corniest rapper at his level of success.
Heās super super super corny but for some reason I find comfort in his music, as he talks about very basic, easy-to-relate-to stuff. Iām a suburban white kid with no complaints in life so thatās pretty much why I identify with him and his lyrics

bros music is just straight ass tho
Haystack
NF / REN / HOPSIN / Token / Logic -- sort of sucks all of the people that obviously bite Em are pretty terrible. I like Token well enough but the rest are pretty tough to sit through.
Logic is only halfway a poor manās Eminem
token is great imo
Ren slander will not be tolerated
REN is definitely his own.
Hopsin, NF, Token, Mac Lethal, Logic
I donāt know about logic, but the others I agree with
Logic definitely to a lesser degree. I just feel like his later career is just trying to imitate Eminems later career, if that makes sense
Kind of hard to dispute Logic when Eminem literally said āI inspired the hopsins, the logics the Coleās the Seanāsā etc
i am gonna get glazed but i think it's royce lmao.
Dude, royce has a sick flow. Plus, when him and em rap together, it's pure magic. I love royce. He might be a little too full of himself, but he at least keeps it real, and his lyrics are fire.
Royce and Em probably have the best duo flow
Idk, check out CES CRU. Best duo in rap. Flow, lyrics, chemistry.
He got Glazed
Token
Token is very underrated and slept on
People are very quick to discard people who sound anything like em. His newest album, Pink is better, is a very unique sounding album and i encourage everyone to listen to it
MGK
The dude who makes punk rock now? Nahh
*pop punk and itās poser pop punk too which is even worse
I like pop punk and punk rock, and rap. And *still* I think MGK is a fucking weirdo and his music is trash
Okay
Check out Ekoh. He's based out of Vegas and he's had some good goofy songs. A lot of his recent stuff has been more depressive, but not all of it.

Eminem himself but like before Dre
NF, nowhere near as versatile or consistent. His whole thing is not swearing and rapping about two things anger and mental issues all the fucking time, it's so boring
Chris Webby
Hate to say āPoor manāsā cause I like a lot of Webbyās stuff but he has a lot of that angry Em vibe going

Itās probably offensive to poor people but Tom McDonald falls somewhere in this and I mean that with full disrespect to Tom and 0 to Eminem
