Irv Gotti Says Jay-Z Is Better Than Eminem

    Irv Gotti doesn't agree with Vibe's recent ranking showing Eminem as the number one rapper in the world. Irv first wanted everyone to know this has nothing to do with Eminem and the Murder Inc/Ja Rule beef from the past stating "This has nothing to do with the beef. I don’t really feel like I have beef with Eminem. This has no hatred or nothing. This is just my opinion on it." [watch here]

    Gotti says "they had him as the #1 rapper. Sh– like that kinda pisses me off. You know why? Because let’s take Eminem’s records. Watch my analogy. Eminem is a great artist, no doubt. He puts words together, he’s witty, a smart lyricist, a great lyricist. But how can we say the guy is the best rapper alive? Look at Hov. He makes real records. Every one of Eminem’s first singles is some clown shit. He’s clowning. Is that the #1? That’s not my #1 rapper, man." [watch here]

    Irv then went on to say that Eminem's singles aren't the only reason he thinks Jay-Z is better than Eminem. Gotti says Eminem wouldn't have a chance against Jay-Z, DMX or even Ja Rule in a battle. "They would have put you under pressure. All that ‘off the top,’ they would have put you under pressure. I been to battles with X, Jay and Ja, that was some real shit. Homie, you wouldn’t been able to survive. These niggas was going with written shit. In your grill. X [would say,] ‘I don’t walk, I stalk, living foul.’ Saying some shit you wouldn’t been able to withstand." [watch here]
