Why is it that every time some insufferable, internet-tryhard gets slapped around in cyberspace, their first reaction is to respond with, "LOL U MAD!@!@@!!??" I think I have the answer: You clearly cannot articulate a coherent rebuttal. Nothing that you've typed after my breakdown of your tasteless and uninformed post has even been on-topic, let alone valid.

But why does it matter who's more relevant?
You really just asked that? It matters because nobody cares about 'bus anymore. NOBODY. Joey has a name and a huge fanbase. Canibus has.. DZK?
You came in and said Canibus was begging for attention from some relevant rappers. Which isn't the case because he didn't even start the beef.
Canibus is holding on to any form of relevance that he can muster. Dissing Eminem AGAIN after almost a decade? Really? Open your eyes, you ignorant fuck.
And I wouldn't even call Slaughterhouse relevant. What did all of their last solo albums sale? under 10k first week for all of them.
Yeah, slaughterhouse isn't relevant.. They're only signed with Shady Records, have a huge fanbase and have 4 of the most lyrical rappers out today. That's surely irrelevant. Also, Joey's last album sold 15k first week. The first SH album sold 18k it's first week. That's great for underground. His (Joey's) mixtapes sell more than Canibus's last album.. Go figure. Yeah, irrelevant.
The only thing "relevant" about them is they're signed to shady records. They cant and wont sell shit without Eminem. No lyrical rappers sell in todays market.
I just proved you wrong up above this.
Canibus' isn't relevant because people don't like his style.
No fucking shit. Really? People don't wanna hear some old fucker sounding like he's got a cock in his mouth, screaming over an out-dated instrumental about aliens, Jupiter and the apocalypse?

You just ethered your entire argument with that statement.
Everyone wants catchy hooks and banging beats. Which Canibus doesn't deliver,
Hooks. Hooks = Catchy. Hook = to HOOK someone in. A hook is supposed to get stuck in the person's head. That's the point of it. Canibus doesn't deliver; really? Of course!
hes said multiple times he wants people to focus on the lyrics.
How can you focus on lyrics when everything about him is out-dated and his he has a voice for silent film?
So how is that trying to be mainstream?
For someone who so valiently defends 'bus's on honor, you know absolutely nothing about him. Canibus spent his entire career trying to get another deal after being dropped.

Dumb fuck. IF you're going to argue with me, atleast have some knowledge about the subject.
He sold over 200k first week on one of his albums back when lyrical rap was "relevant".
Joey went gold on Def Jam. What's your point?
But its not anymore and Canibus is still lyrical which means he isn't trying to become mainstream at all.
How does the fact he didn't change styles = he hasn't been trying to go mainstream his entire career? You fucking idiot. One does not equal two.
So I want to ask you this, Do you think relevance = skill?
If NOBODY wants to hear it (including most underground heads) does it = skill?
Joey is skilled. SH are all skilled. Joey destroyed this shit. Bus can't touch Joey. Period.
