Most Lyrical Rap Song

A lot of people believe Eminem is overrated, but they often admit that this is a great song. I personally like his later music as well, but people for some reason tend to go all hipster on it and talk about how stuff before 2005 is so much better, so here you have it, the greatest rap song off all time.

Best Rap song ever. First rap song to win an Oscar award and it also won grammy awards for best solo performance and for best song.

White People Gonna White People. This song is not the most lyrical of all time. It's not even Eminem's most lyrical song. You culture vultures are irrelevant and have the Rap IQ of a damp mop. The clown who cited awards like Grammy's is the prime example of a clueless white biased idiot. Awards/Sales have no place in quality review of hip hp culture, a culture to which you do not and never will belong. - SAMOKiiNG

your cool

Holdin' an M-16, see with the pen I'm extreme
Now, bullet holes left in my peep holes
I'm suited up with street clothes
Hand me A.9 and I'll defeat foes
Y'all know my steelo
With or without the airplay

Nas is the Greatest Rapper of All Time, I don't know why, but when I listen to Nas, I feel that everyone other rapper is just massively overrated and that the people who think those rappers are the best don't know rap and are just biased...

Eminem isn't even that nice...especially compared to NaS.

This is hip hop. Culture Vultures overrating EM on every rap thread are the reason why they are rejected from the culture on a permanent basis. IF they knew anything they'd have another white rapper to D ride by now. Total disgrace. Lose Yourself? LMAO not even EM's most lyrical work. #Paranormal white culture vulture trash - SAMOKiiNG

Tells a great story, amazing putting the words so brilliantly together like this - roblist

It's in my opinion the best story to be told in a song and it's the lyrics that paint this picture in your head.

This should be #1! No Doubt. Listen to it an you will certainly agree.

Almost made me cry

This song is genius,

One mic 11th seriously, it should be second to stan not 11th what are yaw'll smoking

This should be the only EM song on this list. Get these white culture vultures a new culture to try belonging to. Rap isn't for them. This is a great lyrical song, Lose Yourself is just a pop-alternative rap rock song that sold a lot of albums & movie tickets, metrics that are meaningless to lyricism. - SAMOKiiNG

A song with great emotion and emphasises on day to day struggles

The story that set it off

Tupac is the best, no boubt, but he could never write a song as lyrical as this. Most lyrical rap song of all time.

As terms of lyrical this song deserves to be much higher, along with Nas and biggie and Em

One of the few rappers to talk about actual problems not just sex drugs...

Any song from Tupac has a real lyrical meaning.

Amazing song and lyrically should make top 5

Common is a great lyricist! This song was definitely the greatest hip hop song of all time

Great song, Nas is a lyrical genius
