Cleveland rappers? Only Cleveland rappers I know of who are mainstream are Bone Thugs.
I actually had a chance to battle Eminem before and I totally handed him his ass on a platter, see for yourself:
Eminem:
(Grabs a microphone and starts rapping, but is rudely interrupted)
Look little nerd, I'll drop shit on you like a bird
It's absurd to think that you literally heard a thing fig...
Me:
Yo, yo, yo, yo.... shut up. your voice is so high pitched
when I first came in, I thought you were a bitch.
you had a shitty childhood, so what? now you're rich,
find a new excuse for sucking, like your severe genital itch
People think you're hardcore because you lived in a trailor home
well fuck them, I live in a giant house like the one in home alone
Go back to your white trash life and horrible body odor.
I don't feel sorry for you, I'm rich so fuck the poor
Eminem:
Yo.. You have nothing on me because I admit my weakness,
When I was 10, I'd go behind the monkeybars and play with my penis at recess
Also, when nobody's looking, I change the way i dress.
I steal tu-tus from my little daughter and prance around like a princess
I was a stupid kid and up until I was 15, when I ate, I wore a bib
Even when I was 16, someone came to my trailor and babysitted
See that? All those things about myself, I've admitted.
That means you have nothing on me, at least nothing legitimate
Me:
monkeybars huh? too bad that's not your only flaw
you forgot to mention what you did behind the see-saw
The movie you were in sucked, it wasn't even real freestyle
rich bastard, what'll the sequel be called? 90210 Mile?
i'll kill your daughter as a favor to give your raps more flavor
you'll be breathing hard like darth vader while you run like Ralph Nader to save her
yo Eminem.. you need a visit from the lyric fairy
maybe she'll leave you a pen and paper with a rhyming dictionary
you speak worse than an ambassador from a foreign embassary
don't mess with me, i'll go nuts like Stephen king when he wrote Carrie
Eminem:
Uhh.. damn dude.. that shit was 'ill. Where you from?
Me:
Shut up, don't talk to me.
Eminem:
I'm serious dawg, those rhymes waz tight.
Me:
Yeah? Blow me. (drops pants, takes a shit on eminems shoe, and walks off stage).
