I think I might be missing something here...
nobody on the planet can do
what he can do and
communicate the way he can.

I agree.
The way he communicates is unique, obviously. It's why he's so popular.
If what he meant was that nobody is a better rhymer than Em, then that's arguable.

How is his communication unique? Show me an example. Also an example of him doing something that "nobody on the planet" can.

I'm going to have to answer your question with one of mine; if you heard a random verse on the radio, would you know if it was Em?
Or if you saw a lyric sheet, would you be able to say it was Em's? I would, and I think a lot of people on here would too.
I can't explain it any better than that.
As for examples of Eminem doing stuff that other people.on the planet can't, I'd say having a worldwide bestseller 10+ years after your debut, I'd say being every bit as popular now as he was in his prime.
I'd say all that just to annoy you, because the question is open to misinterpretation and those aren't the answers you want.
I'd do this because I think you're annoyed with cws' apparent belief that Em is the best rapper to ever exist and that other rappers can't come close, a sentiment which I think annoys you because you listen to other lesser known rappers and have a slight contempt for those who do not. A sentiment which would be understandable if Eminem isn't arguably the best rapper to ever exist.
I'm reasonably certain that I didn't fully satisfy your demands, but...meh.

^ I coulda sworn you were a dude.
Anyway, that's my point. If you can tell, then he's unique.
Maybe I'll wait 'til I'm less...inebriated to try to make my point.

Um, that's kinda my point.
Every artist has something that makes them special. Nas does, Pitbull, Flo Rida, Shawty Lo. A certain, I dunno, je ne sais quoi?
That's the thing Em has that other rappers don't, the thing that Drake has that can't be replicated.
I think we're misunderstanding each.other, somehow.
From where I'm sitting, it's obvious af.

I really don't know.
If I did, I would be popular af right now. If I were to guess, I'd say technical rhyming + compelling backstory + eloquence + mystique + sex appeal + race
It's hard to put a finger on exactly

Yeah probably, it's rare to find artists with identical voices. Also probably because he's the only radio artist who actually tries.
kkaniff wrote:if you saw a lyric sheet, would you be able to say it was Em's?
what? no. how would i know what em's lyric sheets look like?
kkaniff wrote:I can't explain it any better than that.
swing and a miss.

Eminem alone wouldn't have been able to do this. Much of his success is due to Interscope and Dre's promotion methods. It's why Em can drop something as shitty as Recovery and still be #1 for weeks. He doesn't even have to try. At that point my neighbor's retarded stepdaughter could do it.

I'm not, it doesn't and I don't.

these artists are about as special as jimmy valmer.

...the ability to tie his shoes without bending his knees?

eminem is the best ever. it's not arguable. and he knows it. some people can not realize it, and that's fine with me and with him. his new material (yes sometimes subliminally) disses other mainstream rappers (those he considers his competition) up and down in a way he's never done before, not just with his words but with his attitude and flow, and again, some people can not see that and it's fine
