“This is going to my African fundamentalism," said Umar on The Joe Budden Podcast. "No non-African can ever be the best of anything African. It is an insult to the ancestors, it is an insult to the race and it is an insult to every Black person ... We gotta stop naming non-African people as the best of any aspect of our cultural power because it is an insult … I can acknowledge Eminem’s talent, but for you to put him at the top, that’s white supremacy."

It's not the first time someone has disqualified Em from being GOAT because of his race

Melle Mel is one person who went with that theory, which led to a feud between him and the 8 Mile rapper.

What do you think about Johnson's opinion?
