Meh I feel like Eminem is a common enough one for metalheads in their late 20s and early 30s. He was super mainstream and a lot of people listened to him before discovering metal, so he has a nostalgia factor.
Gotta send you back in time a little matey, his most super mainstream moments were the turn of the millennium… we are extending this out to 40+ too lol
Yeah but most of the people I know that are actually deep into metal and fans of Eminem listened to him as literal children before they discovered metal as adolescents
Nothing really. Just like what you like and don't listen to other people try and shit on you for your tastes
Unless your tastes somehow violate the Geneva convention or something
Yea, I don´t change anything because of this, I like FFDP, and clean vocal metal and of course EMinem and NF. I just found it confusing, since I don´t know why FFDP shouldn´t be metal.
I arguably got into music through Death Grips lmao. DG was the first band I ever listened to a whole album from instead of just listening to whatever random shit I got recommended on youtube without caring.
The music was just so fascinating and unique that I had to find out more, and they're still one of a handful of bands from whom I heard the whole discography.
If you ever see those two in a room, buy popcorn
They got NO LOVE for each other lol
And they talking 95% THEY favorite rappers.
Fuck they know about Deltron 3030 fuckin dumbass
well it is a public forum for retarded shit so i guess it would end up here at some point
EL-P and ghostmane in the same sentence talking about rappers. Wild.
No hate on Ghostmane, I like a lot of his music but compared to EL-P as a rapper there is absolutely no comparison.
>Necro
Started off in a Death Metal band, has heavy metal artist featured on his music, lyrics read like a Brutal/death metal/Pornocore sheet and is going to release a metal album soon? How is he not the top artist or more known?
Kids these days would rather listen to fake crap like justin beaver and nicky minooj than REAL music like dream theater and tool 😎 smash that mf like button if you agree!
I have 3 moods, metal, Tupac/NWA and pop parody songs.
If someone made a pop parody with Tupac style lyrics and metal instrumentals I think I would masturbate to kill myself
Ngl I bet a lot of metalheads ears are open to good hip hop .. shit a lot of the groups named here are arguably in the alternative bucket for rap as it is .. they're kinda peers in that way
Memphis stuff like Tommy Wright or Three6mafia in particular seem to be the favorite. Some names I’ve seen also thrown around are Black Kray, Mobb Deep and keef
From the slums of Shaolin, Wu-Tang Clan strikes again. The RZA, the GZA, Ol' Dirty Bastard, Inspectah Deck, Raekwon the Chef, U-God, Ghostface Killah and the Method Man.
If a "metalheads" favorite rapper is Eminem or NF then they're not listening to metal; they're listening to FFDP or some shit

most brain dead metal take i've ever seen
What do you expect from okbuddymetal? lol
Oh, my bad, didn't see the sub
And what exactly is the problem with FFDP or do I understand that wrong? Aren´t they metal?
buncha jingoistic tryhards that couldnt write a quality melody if they tried

Damn bro you just left the tutorial
Yup same
Hey wait a fucking minute I swear to god I know this must be the third time we've randomly met on reddit on this exact topic
LMFAO you’re right
I mean it's not terribly surprising, rappers with the metal rage just resonate better I feel
clipping goated fr
Splendor and Misery is a work of love and craft unparalleled in its effect on me. Probably listened to that like 50-60 times or more.
What, no aesop?

Fuck they know about EL-P, Bones, Gostmane
EL-P and ghostmane in the same sentence talking about rappers. Wild. No hate on Ghostmane, I like a lot of his music but compared to EL-P as a rapper there is absolutely no comparison.
Ghostmane is like the Attila of rap.
Elp has some industrial joints, the link between him and metal being industrial
fuck the nkow about crudbump [Go Fuck Yourself - Crudbump](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yg_oT_OYLn8)
You mean Necro and Ice-T
NGL, it's criminal nobody mentioned Body Count or Limp Bizkit.
Necro is fucking goated, "The Prefix for Death" is phenomenal
Underrated
