Premier League footballers as rappers: A Thread
Arsenal - Eminem

Were unstoppable in the early 2000's, but seem to have completely fallen off with only a handful of competent performances in the past decade. Still have millions of fans who somehow believe in them.
Aston Villa - Nas

Been on a consistent downward spiral since the early 90s before hitting rock bottom in the last half decade, couldn't create a good rhythm if they tried.
Bournemouth - 6ix9ine

A genuinely tragic club, who somehow spent a few years in the spotlight. Seem to be going back to where they belong.
Brighton - Tyler, The Creator

Half of their fanbase is in the LGBT community. Are infinitely better than where they were at the beginning of the decade.
Burnley - French Montana

Shithouse their way into good positions every year. No creativity at all but still chart relatively highly. Their sheer existence annoys everyone else.
Chelsea - Kendrick Lamar

The most successful of them all in recent years. Have had a couple years off but hopefully will be coming back stronger than ever
Crystal Palace - DaBaby

They just exist, and they use the same formula every time to just exist. Consistently shit but manage to stay in the game somehow.
Everton - Coolio

Both managed by Dons. Truly living in a Gangstas Paradise
Leicester - Skepta

Managed to extend their brand beyond the UK after putting an incredible run together. Are incredibly solid and are looking to get better, despite not yet topping that year
Liverpool - Black Thought

Simply the best at the moment. Whether that be as a group (The Roots) or through individual brilliance, nobody seems able to be better than them right now.
Manchester City - Rick Ross

Everything about them screams money. Very luscious style and genuinely very entertaining
Manchester United- J Cole

Not bad in the slightest but their fanbase is one of the most braindead, clueless and deluded on the planet.
Newcastle - XXXTentacion

Really depressing 90% of the time. Easily has the best fanbase I've come across.
Norwich - Migos

Woeful. Their individual talent will go on to have better careers than the group itself.
Southampton - ASAP Rocky

Had a great run up until around 2016 but seem to have fallen off a bit. However, the best seems year to come.
Sheffield United - Danny Brown

One of the most innovative tactical forces in recent times and mostly works. Have taken everyone by surprise with their relentless energy and consistency.
Tottenham - Death Grips

Were brilliant throughout the past decade but have gone quiet the past couple years, need new energy breathed into them
Watford - Ludacris

That one you forgot existed. Completely irrelevant but still very good on their day and seem to be quite consistent
West Ham - Playboi Carti

"Sometimes maybe good, sometimes maybe shit" - Gennaro Gattuso

More shit than good as of late
Wolves - Lil Baby

A new force to be reckoned with. Lack of adaptability and depth may cost them in the long run, though
