Eminem Says Tupac Is the Greatest Songwriter of All Time

Eminem is known for his lyrical genius, but in a recent statement the celebrated rapper admitted his penmanship will never rival that of Tupac, who he believes is the greatest songwriter of all time.
During his recent “Music To Be Quarantined By” set on his Shade45 SiriusXM Channel, Eminem spoke of his admiration for the late rapper and explained why his lyricism was so exceptional.
As he prepared to play "If I Die Tonight" from Pac’s 1995 album Me Against The World, Shady said "Okay, this next song is from an artist that I feel like might be the greatest songwriter of all time. Debate what you want about MC skills and all that because he had that, too. This is one of them songs by Tupac that, to me, was like, he was showing you I can write heartfelt shit and I can write lyrical, crazy shit, too."

Pac could write gangster shit and he could write emotional shit. The same dude that wrote Hit Em Up also wrote I Ain't Mad at Cha. Pac had range and the ability of a true poet.
