#KnoxHill you know I am here for the informative breakdowns(which are indeed spot on 🤗) and listening to Eminem from back in the day whether he spits: factual, comical or must needed disses 😱💯
I did lol. With the sheer lyrical rhyming, his transformation from encore to relapse and recovery afterwards, along with the honest and serious tracks on it, relapse em is probably my favorite em. Relapse is one of my favorites hands down.
@@KnoxHill 2009 BET Cypher freestyle ft Mos Def, Eminem, Black Thought.. one of the greatest freestyles of all time..three lyrical giants went crazy and nuts in that freestyle, react to it knoxxx
This is easily my favorite freestyle from Eminem. So incredibly dope and flawless. I miss the Relapse era of Eminem tbh. Keep up the amazing breakdowns, Knox! You have the best breakdown channel on TH-cam, imo. You genuinely get hip hop and the art behind it 💚🦦
@@wooshbait36 it’s not pre written it’s pre memorized , he memorized multiple bars then mix and matches them off the top. Learn what you’re talking about before you speak
@@wooshbait36 What do you mean pre-written? He's a rapper so he obviously prepares bars before hand for different types of beats. That's the difference between a real MC and the other trash out there in the industry.
@@glibglob8755 Yep, you're right. I never heard of the movie but I looked it up out of curiosity and it all ties into the previous Dracula reference keeping with the horror theme.
Facts. And it may or may not also be a callback to a super old D12 song where Em said "Cancel the hash sh1t, I'm fillin' my glands full of acid, two hands full of a$$, dancin' with Angela Bassett, make plans for the caske+, your h3ad lands in a basket, a d3@d man's in the plastic, I got red hands and the mask fits.."
No you’re so wrong 😂 it’s the character Angela from NIGHT OF THE DEMONS. An 80’s partly camp flick where this girl named Angela gets possessed and then there’s like a full 10 minute dance scene where she’s just grinding and writhing and grinding. It’s a pretty famous horror dance scene among horror fans to this day, and the movie is actually known for it. It’s equal parts funny, seductive and stupid, and I fckng love it 😂 And she also gets great one liners. The character and dance was so popular among B movie horror fans at the time, that they put Demon Angela in the second and third installments too. The film was originally before my time, but I love to watch old horror movies. 🖤 this film and character fits perfectly with the relapse horrorcore theme Eminem was on in this freestyle and at this time period. It’s definitely the character Angela from Night of the Demons 👍🏼
@@chedar1328How Stella Got Her Groove Back isn’t a horror film. It’s a chick flick and definitely not what Eminem was referencing. He’s referencing the character Angela from Night Of The Demons, and her famous dance scene. So, wtf are you talking about, Vampire In Brooklyn??? 😂
I grew up listening to Eminem in the '90s and early 2000. Yes, I also listened to all 2Pac, Biggie, Reggie, Rakim songs etc, as well as the rest of the West and East Coast. They were all great, some of them more than others, but the way this man changed everything, the amount of success he had, the unmatched talent with words...I mean he did not only reach the "suburban kids" of "White America", it also crossed the fucking ocean and got here in Europe where I'm from and conquered it lol and then he took the rest of the world as well. Simply the goat.
I concur!! So awesome to witness your growth as an emcee bro. I see you’re a true student of hip hop improving over time with catching all the technical parts in schemes and knowledge of the game. You surprise me sometimes lol. Kudos brother I look forward to seeing you blossom even more!!!
Knox Hill, Eminem was talking about Pinhead from Hell Raiser. Pinhead started out human but solved the puzzle box, then it opened up and pulled him into another dimension where he became the leader of the Cenobites. The cenobites were a type of demon from that other dimension. And the reason for Eminem’s pin cushion line is that Pinhead in his Cenobite form is bald with needles sticking out of his face all over like a pin cushion.
The "started off on the wrong foot, or should I say, fake leg, made out of wood?" gets every time and I've seen this freestyle dozens of times. Great job Knox as usual! :)
Minor correction: He says "once a again it's the sinister cynical *minister* shady" So it makes it just that much more impressive then it would be if he said *mister*
For hip hop fans at 17:35 for those who heard Kendrick control verse. He takes that exact same flow at one point in that verse when he says "Judgment to the monarchy Blessings to Paul mccartney You called me a black Beatle I'm either that or a Marley" It is literally the exact same cadence as Em's part here. Clearly influenced
In this case? Em travelled to another dimension during the break between beats and came back with that thirdfreestyle. You can see it in the room. Everybody's looking around like "Is he okay? Is he gonna stop? Should we stop him?"
Bruh this freestyle is vicious. Could you imagine if em and juice got on 1 of these freestyles together. Like juices 1 hour freestyle. With pockets of em curving the direction of the song. My god. That would shatter the game! RIP JUICE!
Listening to you reminds me of when my big bro used to show me old hip hop and how my big bro used to explain it all to me.... He doesn't anymore and I wish I could go back to that time! So I thank you for this! I know you'll likely never see this but thank you homie!!!
Em paints with words for those of us that can see it....the mans a gift...we're lucky hes has a team around him to keep him level...or ......hed be just like every other artistic genius of our history....that energy never burns for long........cant wait to see the reactors catch up to the albums they hated when they were sleeping....🙏
FINALLY!!!! I feels like ive been waiting to see this reaction forever! Amazing breakdown! The way you reacted to this freestyle brought me back to when I first saw this and made me think of my initial reaction to the crazy and absurd mind bending bars! Keep up the good work!!
This man is from another planet. To be able to come up and spit like this for about 8 minutes is just insane.... another great job from Knox! Much love from Sweden! Btw, still waiting for Eminem - Music Box. Bonus track that I belive alot of people have missed that is just a masterpeice! Keep it up man 👍👌
Could see the admiration in your eyes and Westwoods, Westwoods was watching on like a girl in loved he was so amazed. The first time I heard this tho I was that amazed, better than 90% of the WRITTEN stuff and today
The "severing 3 toesies" bar is about a girl who was basically being tortured by 3 guys (if I remember correctly) and she was alive and lived thru it, but they cut 3 of her toes off and she played dead the whole time so they wouldn't keep torturing her. Literally didn't flinch or cry or anything while they did it. I forget her name, but I remember the story
the Rosie tosies line is like ring around the rosies, pockets full of posies, but instead he’s chopping tosies, it’s a meta rhyme. Nerofins and he put nerve ends into his syrup because he’s eating the people he just unalived. the headlines” reference also is saying cutting heads off effectively. It’s also layers so it’s a triple entendre, that’s why it hits even though it goes over our heads.
You should check out K'naan, he's a rapper born in Somalia, moved to the states as a refugee from the war when he was a kid. Good shit. I'd recommend starting with 'Whats hardcore' from the album 'The dusty foot philosopher'
Bro , this freestyle kills rappers period.. man just the way thst he can do this shit is so fucking amazing.. it's even better when y can catch everything at the first take.. I love reaction videos because I like seeing people react to stuff that I caught on the first take lol.. it's epic
Long time subscriber, first time commenter. You missed a bar, sir. When EM said the Jason mask was off that was also a throwback shout out to the last line of Criminal. I love your breakdowns. Also just want to give a shout out to Cliff Beats, and Stevie Knight. Y'all got me covered with breakdowns. I love the music and your content. Stay strong and do what you do. 💯
tu for the breakdown Knox This freestyle is a pure masterpiece second verse tells us a story doesn't repeat himself his ryhme scheme is ridiculous Eminem's buddy didn't even wanna get on that beat with em cuz he destroyed that dope beat my personal favorite freestyle along with a lot of other people been waiting for u do break it down tu for all your work an ur 🎵 is killer keep it up mane
Yo did you plan this to be the video to be your 1k upload?! If yes, genius. If no, doesn't matter, still genius. You bring a great view and you teaching these youngins all the references they weren't around to understand. Keep up the amazing breakdowns!
What up Knox. Just wanted to say I truly love the way you break down bars and rhyme schemes. I see your face light up on complex flows and it makes me smile to see the true excitement and joy it gives you. I put you in my top 5 reactors to this music shit. I don’t know if you will even see this but watching you break down this Westwood freestyle made me want to give you your flowers my guy. You are Traylee Certified !(my stamp on you) lol.
I'll say it again: Em is the greatest rapper in history, and will never be beaten. Why? Because he literally transcends rap. He is a genius who happens to do rap. He could do anything. He does do anything. People take it for granted that -- not that he was the biggest artist during the Internet blow-up, nor that he literally has about three rapper personas rolled into one -- he literally re-invented flow itself in the late-1990s. Only things that really existed across the 2000s was Em and more typical old-school West coast stuff, or else New York style. I mean, Lil Wayne got going in the 2000s, too, but was not really big until the 2010s and with Em on some of his songs, too. A few others were big in the 2000s, but most were either post-Em or because of Em directly. 50 Cent was kind of due to Em, and more of the 'club' style, even though he largely hates that and is actually a very nice, intelligent guy. Em also has a profound dark/black comedy, which is more common of the British and Europeans in general. I figure that Em read a lot growing up, and got into certain figures that way. Also, you require a great eye for detail, and high IQ to be that ironic/dark. Black comedy is an art itself. He's a modern poet, I think (maybe one of the few modern poets worth mentioning). His complete understanding of the English language is fucking stupid, coupled with the flow. Ain't nobody like Em. Anybody who claims he's not very good are shockingly biased. It's an objective fact that he is truly great.
Yo I've heard this shit 1000x & whenever he gets to that bar about the hairs standing on the back of your neck. I swear to God everytime my shit stands up!!
This timing is so bizarre. I have literally been watching this Westwood Freestyle for 2 days after having not seen it for a year. I was singing in my head "I'm checking the exposure of photos of me exposing..." and I saw THIS pop up on my notifications. So excited to watch it.
PS - Wasn't Marilyn Manson he was shouting out to. It was Charles. He was on the serial killer kick with Part Manson (Charles) Part Hannibal (as you said, Lecter)...Fabulous breakdown tho. You caught a few things I had missed & I've seen this one so many times I know most of the lyrics by now. 😂
Love how all these reaction videos have an opinion on the first few bars, then it's so fast and thick, breaking it down becomes redundant. Face it, Eminem is the id of our generation
If this was a true freestyle and he never wrote any of this down just remembered these schemes he thought of before or on the spot at Westwood then this is truly even more insane🎉🫡🐐🙌🏼

😂
He definitely saw someone spit it tho
Can we all appreciate how informed and knowledgeable Knox is that he catches every bar any artist does!!
Knox is the only guy I watch and listen to for Eminem reactions cuz he catches bars I don't and he explains things fully. Props to Knox!
Anyone else noticed how during the relapse Era Em always held his mic to the side 😂😂😂 He literally just did it during that year
Factz😂😂
Weapon at the hip
I did lol. With the sheer lyrical rhyming, his transformation from encore to relapse and recovery afterwards, along with the honest and serious tracks on it, relapse em is probably my favorite em. Relapse is one of my favorites hands down.
Respect for noticing that ☺️
It's a clone!!! It must have been! Otherwise how did he not have a beard and now he does? Explain that one.

SHADY XV!!! You have to react to it
The freestyle he does over the microphone beat is lyrically insane.

@@mookiestewart3776 Prove it

Nobody does it like slim. Classic freestyle for us UK fans. Big up bro
The line "Angela so I command you to start dancing" is in reference to Angela Bassett movie 'How Stella got her groove back'.
Lovin' the content Knox.

Can we talk about how badass it is that our man got a song with KXNG Crooked? That is no feat to act like it's nothing. Congrats Knox!

"dentist to Amy"" is also used as a slant rhyme for "Dennis" linking with the prior line "menace that's shady" referencing Dennis the menace.
Damn dawg that's tough😂
Holy hell I just realized this. WOW
Minor correction:
He says "once a again it's the sinister cynical *minister* shady"
So it makes it just that much more impressive then it would be if he said *mister*

Great analysis. Eminem’s impact on the culture and his influence can’t be denied 🔥
Beautiful
I heard this when it was broadcast. Yes, I'm old, lol
But in the UK at the time, it was the only hip hop radio show available nationwide.
That's a cool memory
That hellraiser section was my favourite bit! Just ridiculously descriptive man🔥
The Rumpelstiltskin line is so over the heads of everyone but one of my favorite lines. Fire freestyle
Crook is underrated he comes on that song so smoothly....dope collab!!!
💪💪🔥
@@KnoxHill I think you should really consider switching to MC SWAGGER JUICE ... or that can be your alternative identity like eminem/slimshady
Mc Swagger should have posh British accent imo and you should start dissing UK rappers just because you can
I agree, Crook is not talked about enough!
That kon artist not crook
He kicks the shit out of a beat. Just pounds it with no fat. Punches and punches at it.
In this case? Em travelled to another dimension during the break between beats and came back with that thirdfreestyle. You can see it in the room. Everybody's looking around like "Is he okay? Is he gonna stop? Should we stop him?"
Your relocation of facts when you break down is insane Knox! Great memory.
I just want to say I really like how you understand and appreciate all the intricacies of what you are watching
it's fucking crazy
thank you

Facts!
Em on that Microphone beat solidified him in my top 5 back in the day forever 💪🏽
Knox, you're the GOAT of reactions. Been waiting on this one a long time, dope reaction
Wow, dude I’ve only seen your channel recently, but the way you break shit down, explain the bars is 2nd to none. Keep em coming man 🤌🏽
“Nails into my face that I been pushin’
Hellraiser, my face is my pincushion.”
Absolutely LUDICROUS bars here.
This freestyle is so fire, even all these years later. Also loving the track in the intro, keep up the great work Knox I'm here for it!
20:39 Listen to his rhyme punches lining up with the drums, how he slightly tweaked his scheme to make it fit, it was out of this world
"Angela" EM is talking the 1980's movies "Night of the Demons"
CONGRATULATIONS ON EVERYTHING BROTHER KNOX, ESPECIALLY THAT TRACK WITH KING COOKED 🙏🏽👑🔥🔥🔥.
Nobody breaks down like Knoxville I’ve heard this a couple dozen times and you just opened my eyes to a bunch of shit I didn’t catch…elite status!
One of the many freestyle that I love from Eminem, the beats, the lyrics, too dope 😎😎
Best detailed breakdown channel hands down! Appreciate your hard work Knox! Keep at it🔥👊☺️🙏❤️
FINALLY!!!! I feels like ive been waiting to see this reaction forever! Amazing breakdown! The way you reacted to this freestyle brought me back to when I first saw this and made me think of my initial reaction to the crazy and absurd mind bending bars! Keep up the good work!!
Love the reaction and breakdown. Been waiting for this for a minute! His verse after the beat switch is NUTS
This man is from another planet. To be able to come up and spit like this for about 8 minutes is just insane.... another great job from Knox!
Much love from Sweden!
Btw, still waiting for Eminem - Music Box. Bonus track that I belive alot of people have missed that is just a masterpeice! Keep it up man 👍👌
this freestyle has been in my favs for years.... It does standout as the best imo of EM....
"And still can, spin straw into gold like Rumplestiltskin. Cotton to silk." What an absolutely sick rhyme scheme.
Could see the admiration in your eyes and Westwoods, Westwoods was watching on like a girl in loved he was so amazed. The first time I heard this tho I was that amazed, better than 90% of the WRITTEN stuff and today
Yeahhh !!! FINALLY 🎉 been waiting for this one ☝️ great breakdown as always Knox 👌🏻keep up the good work bro
Great video Knox ! Had fun watching this. I miss the old school Eminem freestyles
Dope! No one thinks to break down these freestyles etc. Knox is goating AGAIN! Props from NC FAM
That Westwood freestyle was fucken crazy, for a guy who had to teach himself to rap again it was very fucken good
Knox I love turning my phone off and listen to you break down the lyrics. It helps me sleep❤❤❤
I’ve been waiting for this for the longest,and i gotta say it was definitely,worth the wait,bruh cooked it up to the most 🔥
The syrup and stir them line, i genuinely thought he said in my serpents sternum 😩😂
The "severing 3 toesies" bar is about a girl who was basically being tortured by 3 guys (if I remember correctly) and she was alive and lived thru it, but they cut 3 of her toes off and she played dead the whole time so they wouldn't keep torturing her. Literally didn't flinch or cry or anything while they did it. I forget her name, but I remember the story
Been waiting for this one let's go
Best breakdown I've seen for this yet. Great job.
the Rosie tosies line is like ring around the rosies, pockets full of posies, but instead he’s chopping tosies, it’s a meta rhyme. Nerofins and he put nerve ends into his syrup because he’s eating the people he just unalived. the headlines” reference also is saying cutting heads off effectively. It’s also layers so it’s a triple entendre, that’s why it hits even though it goes over our heads.
Beveryly sings while I’m severing three tosies, ring around the rosie. (Sings rhymes with rings and posies rhymes with tosies)
You should check out K'naan, he's a rapper born in Somalia, moved to the states as a refugee from the war when he was a kid. Good shit. I'd recommend starting with 'Whats hardcore' from the album 'The dusty foot philosopher'
Agree
I've heard this freestyle 100 times and still as sick as the first time just insane em at his best west just zoned in shocked lol

One of my fav freestyles of all time! Eminem is just....on another level!
Just imagine Slim and H Mack on the track going back and forth. Would be poetry at its finest.
That would be a dream come true to watch these two freestyle back and forth 🔥🙏 let's hope we get to experience that one day 😃👊🔥
It would be dope however Em wouldn’t be able to keep up with H-Mack imo
@@otisspunkinmyer3796 yeah and em isnt really focussed on freestyling either. He could be arguably T10, but his lyricism is unparalleled for sure.
Omg yes, that would be the best !
That would have been embarrassing for Em because his "freestyles," including this one, are prewritten.
Eminem - baby
Check it out... 3rd verse goes hard 😭
the fact that he freestyles about an serial killers perspective on his second verse is insane..... so damn good
Denaun saying "First one to class and the last to leave" is a shoutout to one of his lines in the song "Revelation" off of the Devil's Night album
Knox Hill is the bar breakdown🐐He never disappoints🐐
That song you opened the video with is sick man, going on my playlist for sure

too. Unreal

mellow, also like mellow yellow the drink that is bright yellow
When he said exposure of me exposing he said “overdose” as over those which ties into so many bars/entendres later
The cut toward the end hid an edit where they were doing an extended riff on the hook.
We need more Relapse era song reactions. from you @Konx Hill
3am, Deja Vù, Same Song & Dance, Bufallo Bill, Underground, Insane ... list goes on
Em goes fucking stupid on this track, I love it, especially the blizzard-wizard scheme and the hellraiser scheme
More leage of legend songs!! I love your reaction
Great analyses Sir
At this point I’m convinced Eminem is a robot
Lmao, frfr right?!!!! This mfer is so good bro...
You straight up have the best break down channel
Love how all these reaction videos have an opinion on the first few bars, then it's so fast and thick, breaking it down becomes redundant. Face it, Eminem is the id of our generation
The Jason mask is off, face is plastered in tobasco sauce is a double. “Jason mask is, face is plastered” and “basco sauce and mask is off”
The second freestyle is just the greatest.
Magic. Move so far in a verse to CHANGE subjects, and connect it.
Yes, I was waiting for this one! 😁
Bro you're the best, respect.
If this was a true freestyle and he never wrote any of this down just remembered these schemes he thought of before or on the spot at Westwood then this is truly even more insane🎉🫡🐐🙌🏼
Been waiting for this
