There was already a thread about this.

Anyways, imo Lose Yourself > One Mic.

Yeah. It has been a therad like this...

I must say Lose Yourself.
I love One Mic too, but there is something with Lose Yourself that has caught me, especially the beat and the chorus. And of course the lyrics, but that did One Mic too.

id say one mic

lose yourself is excellent no doubt, but i think the once mic beat is better than lose yourself, i think the different flows on it add something extra to the track that lose yourself doesnt have, lose yourself does have a better hook though

I agree, like I dunno... it just one mic is just so much more powerful than lose yourself and I think it's mainly cause of the beat. lose yourself's beat was good but it just wasn't great.. one mic on the other hand had a dope beat... lose yourself has a better hook but one mic's hook is still cool IMO and I really love the transition from calm to aggressive in the 2 verses thena cool piano comes in for the third verse where he starts aggressive, and it's amazing..

One Mic is probably my fav rap song of all time, but lose yourself is not far behind.

Sorry, but you're wrong. You're talking about OPEN mic.

ONE mic is from Nas' Stillmatic. :y: :y:

lol at all you guy's that has said that one mic is better

lose yourself is way better, then anything in the whole fucking world, it has everything in it!!
the beat is ill as a motherfucker!!
the lyrics, damn just damn!!
the emotion was dripping from it!!
plus this track is one of the few tracks that gets something in me to arise from it's ground, like till I collaps, it makes me wanna do something, like write a song or go out and exercise you know, this kinda song makes me get a smile on my face, for just existing, and I get the shivers running down my spine each time I hear it.

but one mic is a fucking very good song, but not to be compared with something like lose yourself.
the greatest is hated

^ i'm sorry to tell you this but lose yoruself is not the best song ever, first of all it's not even eminem's best song ever.. sure it was his most popular but it was not his best..

One mic IMO is probably in nas' top 3...

sing for the moment IMO is better than lose yourself, but even then i choose one mic over it...

One Mic is a great song, not many people here even understand it.
