What is the meaning behind “So you’ll be Thor and I’ll be Odin You rodent, I’m omnipotent”? Rap God by Eminem

Like those who oppose General Zod, other rappers should kneel in front of Eminem because their skills are inferior . While he mentions Krypton (home to General Zod & Superman) from the DC superhero universe, he corrects himself and refers to Asgard – the Marvel equivalent and place where Odin reins supreme. In Asgard, Odin is the Allfather- the closest thing to a chief god. Thor is Odin’s son. You can be a god, but Eminem is the greatest god of them all – you’ll always suffer in comparison. As for Superman, Eminem has had a long history proclaiming himself as the Man of Steel , doing the opposite , and is already a character in Marvel Universe , having chilled with Iron Man. Note: He pronounces this line’s final word “om-ni-PO-tent”/“omni-potent” when it’s actually pronounced “om-NIP-o-tent”. This allows the word to fit the rhyme scheme and emphasizes the word “potent”.
