Why Would Sada Baby Not Rank Eminem In His Top Five From Detroit?

Eminem is the most prolific and successful rapper of all time. His stats can’t be faded. When it’s all said and done, we’ll be retiring his number in every stadium he’s ever sold out.

With over 100 million records sold worldwide, an Oscar for Best Original Song, 10 No. 1 albums, more than 1 billion streams on Spotify, two top 100, all-time best selling albums, Marshall Bruce Mathers III is the highest selling rapper of all time. His top five status should be firmly cemented.

John Boyega’s latest role in the movie Detroit adds a new layer to his already storied career of just a few years.

Boyega plays Melvin Dismukes, a black security guard mired in the middle of police murder and attempted cover up during the 1967 civilian uprisings in Detroit. Dismukes was a complicated character whose actions after the event led to many of his African-American counterparts at the time labeling him an Uncle Tom. Dismukes would eventually move to the suburbs after receiving countless death threats.
