Based on these criteria, I prefer Eminem, because his best songs display a higher level of (what I consider to be) lyrical talent than Wayne's best songs. Of course, not everyone will agree with me on this, so it comes back to personal preference.

^^This, Maybe i'm just old as fuck but saying Wayne is musically better is just because you've become adapted to the bullshit that most music is today, and if you're saying he's lyrically better then you're on crack...Def comes down to preference but yeah i don't really fuck with Wayne, he has a couple catchy jams, but dude don't even write his own shit....fuck him #TheEnd
