the dude that started this is a dick, becoz if sales related to how good u are that would mean that nelly is better than people like talib kweli, rakim, mos def and a whole bunch other artists that are lyrically sick. And the reason eminem has sold more is becoz he's white, i aint gonna deny that he has got skills. another thing bout Jay-Z is that he dosent write his lyrics, he does it on the spot - that is talent.
