So yes, Eminem is still well ahead.
However, in terms of influence on hip hop and pop music as a whole, I think Kanye is above Eminem and it's probably not close. Unfortunately, that's a lot harder to measure.
Kanye likes to claim that his music wasn't about gangster rap and that's why he was sidelined for... a couple years... meanwhile, Dre not only made NWA and Snoop Dogg but managed to convince the entire rap world that a poor white kid with drug problems and abuse issues was the next huge thing by doing things that nobody had ever thought to do before.
I love his stuff, Revival, Kamazake, Music to be Murdered by - I probably know 10 songs almost by heart.
But there's no denying that it's been a very different decade for Mathers and not everyone likes it.
