I’ll say this. They both went in on the song in their respective way. However, IMO the highlights of RENEGADE is it featured Eminem on a verse, Eminem on the production side and it’s the ONLY feature on a Jay-Z album. We have to admit…‘Em’s verse was probably one of his MOST profound and serious verse from Em off the hills of the D12 album. We also have to remember…it wasn’t until May ‘02 before we got another album from Em too. His last album dropped in ‘00.

@@okey7118 False. Jay Z had an Eminem song on his album that had the feel and sound of Eminem and led to the popular sentiment that Jay got murdered on his own song. Eminem's verse isn't just spectacular, the beat sounds lie it was made for Eminem. Because it was. It was was made by and for Eminem. Renegade is the perfect example of the difference between the greatest rapper(Jay Z) and the greatest hip hop artist(Eminem).

I wonder if those people who think that Jay-Z held his own have ever actually bothered to analyse the song. Jay-Z's lyrics were just basic "I had a tough childhood on the streets, but now I made it". On the other hand, Eminem's lyrics covered everything. He attacks organized religion and religious hypocrisy: _While I'm wavin' the pistol at sixty Christians against me_ _Go to war with the Mormons, take a bath with the Catholics_ _In holy water, no wonder they tried to hold me under longer_ He attacks politicians for trying to censor rap music: _Who could inherit the title, put the youth in hysterics_ _Usin' his music to steer it, sharin' his views and his_ _merits?_ _But there's a huge_ _interference, they're sayin'_ _you shouldn't hear it_ He attacks the media for labelling him (and rap music) as a bad influence on society: _But that ain't the case, see,_ _it's a matter of taste_ _We as a people decide if_ _Shady's as bad as they say_ _he is_ _Or is he the latter, a gateway to escape?_ _Media scapegoat who they can be mad at today_ He attacks society for its failure and hypocrisy: _And I got nothin' to do but_ _make you look stupid as_ _parents_ _You fuckin' do-gooders, too_ _bad you couldn't do good at marriage_ There's simply nothing in Jay-Z's lyrics that come even within touching distance of Eminem's lyrical mastery on this song. Nothing at all!

No, a lot of niggas was saying Em had the better verse. Ironically in the barbershops. As I got older, Jay definitely didn't get bodied on that. It was Em flow that was captivating

Hov’s verse on Renegade was one of the best he ever wrote sine the imagery was so vivid, he literally took us through the hood without riding around. You had prime Em on the other side with the smoothest flow with rhyme patterns that fit perfectly to the beat while telling this detailed story of his struggles with fame and the backlash he received. Bias and relatability aside technically Em’s verse was better, he was rhyming whole sentences, every syllable while telling an intricate story and made it sound so natural as if he’s just chopping it up with you in a regular conversation. That’s the highest level of emceeing imo. Em’s verses were so much more memorable, you literally learn them after 2 listens because of how musically appealing they are to the ear, it’s hard to explain. I may sound like a Stan but that’s really not the case, but prime Em was simply the complete package. His more recent stuff I rarely go back to, his delivery is corny, the voice is annoying, the super lyricism is forced, the humor is gone and the subject matter can be terrible at times. Most of Hov’s music aged like fine wine and his consistency is amazIng. I hold both in the highest regard and they’re definitely top 10 if not 5.

Hell honestly they should have pushed either Everyday Struggle or definitely Unbelievable over Big Poppa aka Warning which is a tight song but isn't as energetic as the other two.

Jay-z got on the song with those em verses already written. The original song was with royce. It was just remixed for jay with no new eminem lyrics. So jay already knew what em said and just put his verse to it. I assume jay didn't care what em did on the track. That is part of the reason royce had a problem with eminem.

Hov murdered that recorded his verses are underappreciated because of Nas even I was influenced by that thought process because I was a big Nas fan when I was young and I still am just now I know how to think for myself when it comes to music.

Jay z verse is relatable because he was talking about struggles in the hood Em talked about how America viewed him as an artist and his influence and pointed out the hypocrisy of them saying Em is a bad influence on youth This is all about perspective

Jayz murked that song. He wasnt trynna sound melodic like eminem thats why casuals think Em won. He even gave you a lil taste of a sick melodic flow with “Do not step to me I'm awkward, I box lefty An orphan, my pops left me And often my mama wasn't home Could not stress to me, I wasn't grown”. Jay definitely barred the track to death🔥

I never understood that perception of Eminem killing Jay on Renegade. Eminem has the novelty of being a VERY talented and skilled white artist and it subconsciously makes him look special to some black people. Both had good bars. But when you think about it, Jays music in general and verse on renegade ages like fine wine. Eminem’s music in general and renegade verse aged like milk.

Really appreciate Math's take on renegade. It's an all time classic, both killed it.

I always liked Lil Wayne’s Sqad up version of Renegade the most.

I can’t believe ppl think E did better on that song….J’s verse was totally more relatable, E with the “….Latter Day Saints against me…” flow type stuff….the “…you didn’t do good at marriage…” SMH. Stoppit. J’s struggle I felt fs….

Nobody was saying Eminem killed Jay Z until Nas said it on Ether

Thank you! Finally, someone is speaking REAL FACTS

anyone know where Matt's hat is from? as in the Brand of the hat?

That song is an exercise in "Flow vs Content" ...but that might be hard for some of the audience to understand, I suppose.

I got Hov over Em on Renegade. Hovs verse was too fire. It touched the soul.

Eminem is overrated! He even said if he was black he would have sold half. Nobody is listening to that lyrical miracle bs 💯

The fact that people say Jay-Zs verse was better because they "relate more" to Jay-Zs verse shows what Em did because they expose their bias. Im black by the way.

@@lesegom7172they both displayed vivid lyricism. Some people prefer melodic sounding raps. That’s not what Jayz was going for. He briefly displayed it in his second verse with “do not step to me I’m awkward I box lefty an orphan my pops left my momma wasn’t home” . A casual rap fan will always prefer melody but it’s cool

@@aj9730 Yes, but I don't feel it the way I feel Jay on the track. While I get it and it's impactful what Em says on the track his amazing wordsmithship distracts from the content the more I revisit it. Jay's seems more emotive there's an element of distress to his delivery which I'm starting to like more.

this finna be a great interview

It's undeniable Jay went to the realms with the bars.... Thing is Eminem kinda lives there. He may have spat amazing verses but so did Eminem - Eminem just packaged it a lot better

Jay-Z's verse define my whole teenage years I don't relate to Marshall Mathers

When Renegade became an Eminem B-side on the lose yourself single . No other artist does that. Em’s beat , Em killed it and took it back .

Em on delivery, flow, rhymes Jay on substance, content They both killed it. Then Nas turned it into a debate. Funny tho, since Em gave that to Hov when it originally belonged to Royce

Renegade originally was a song Eminem did with Royce Da 5'9"

This is always been an Internet shit, when two or more people decide to get on a song or make music together whether they’re singing wrapping or playing instruments. They’re trying to make the best possible it’s not a competition.!!

Yes

I think they both handled business but that “Do not step to me I’m awkward I box lefty” psh that line went stupid and that’s just one line

Do not step to me, I’m awkward I box lefty, often, my pops left me an orphan.. my moms just wasn’t home
