Eminem is the talk of the internet right now. Who would have thought that in 2018, the man would be praised (and shamed) as severely as he is right now? It's pretty safe to say that he's redeemed himself after disappointing a large number of folks with Revival with his true revival happening on the surprise Kamikaze from last week. Alongside the hype surrounding the album comes people trying to go head-to-head with the living legend. The most fearless opponent so far has been Machine Gun Kelly, who strapped up and released his own diss track against the "Rap God." Others are going another route and trying to imitate him, which has proven to be a pretty difficult task in the past.

Many consider rappers like MGK to be sons to Eminem and with the OG's rapid-fire approach acting as a mainstay on Kamikaze, one man tried his hand at copying Shady's flow in a video that has now gone viral. If you ask me, the clip of Chris D'Elia rapping like Em is ridiculously cringe-worthy. However, a decent chunk of people believe he nailed the impression with over 66K retweets on the original post. See for yourself and let us know if you think he did a respectable job.

In case you missed it, Eminem dropped his video for "Fall" earlier today. While the visuals were highly welcome, we're still waiting on a response to MGK. Maybe it'll never come and this is just a repeat of "Adidon?"
