Yelawolf is without a doubt the better artist. If you want to try to argue that Obie has a better catalog, that's a different matter. He put together solid albums, and Cheers was great. However, Yelawolf is starting to hit his stride, without a doubt...he's definitely more creative than Obie Trice has ever been or ever will be.
Trunk Muzik Returns and Arena Rap alone (what, 17 songs?) are more interesting and original than anything Obie Trice has ever put out.
Couldn't really have said it any better...

Catalouge - Obie>>>>Yelawolf
Lyrics - Obie>>>>Yelawolf
Flow - Obie>>>>>>>>>>Yelawolf
Hooks - both's weakness but Obie doesn't try sing and sound horrible trying to like Yela does
Delivery - Obie>>>>Yelawolf
Beat selection - Obie>>>>Yelawolf
Are you kidding??????
Catalogue should be even. Yela hasn't had the opportunity Obie had to shine at one time.
Lyrics? Cmon....
Hooks is where you really got me, Yela has GREAT hooks. Have you not heard Tennessee Love?
Delivery....Again, Obie is almost always the same. Yela is 100x more creative and flows better than Obie ever will.
Beat Selection also has to be equal, Yela has rapped on some preeeeetty awesome beats.
