I'll take that one line over every single thing Lil Xan ever spat.
But that's just because I care more about the art form than the culture, so perhaps Lil Xan is more "interesting" at the moment, but he's clearly, obviously, no-argument-about-it less talented than Em.
Indeed, that's my biggest problem with Eminem. He's a brilliant writer and an exceptionally skilled rapper, but his taste in beats sucks and he desperately needs some fresh subject matter. He's rarely found a good use for his formidable talent, and that's what I find so frustrating about him.

That’s not even a logical pun. That’s not a thing they have in common. If he can’t think of a way to connect “dick” with “suck” in a way that actually brings the two conceptually together, he’s not that clever.
That’s a missed opportunity right there. That’s what that is
