I think Bad Guy is Better but Stan gets the cult classic status so everyone chooses that.
exactly!!
I concur. And it makes sense but bad guy def the better of the two!
It's more about the impact that Stan had compared to this song. I mean, it's become part of our lexicon!
@@richardly1277 yeah that's true but because bad guy is a follow up it didn't get the same cred as the original. Bad guy was like the end of a story only True fans who stuck around truly realize the importance and depth of how good bad guy is. Almost like a comparison on how much better eminem has got
@@damarine1 I personally think Stan is one of ems most overrated songs not saying it's crap but I don't think it's as good as the hype but bad guy for me is a great song and is much better
I get pumped when I see you drop a breakdown video, especially an em video. Always great shit.
Taylor Edwards thanks glad you love them!
Taylor Edwards right I watch as many Eminem reviews as possible! I’m a huge Stan minus the girl in the trunk😂
Bad Guy is great bit Stan is the better in my opinion.
However, the last part of Bad Guys does give me goosebumps.
Thanks for the reaction!
Floating Starfish the last verse is the only reason I think this song is better but it’s a photo-finish lol
It’s amazing to have such an in depth story without sacrificing rhymes.
Also, 9hours 45 minutes was the length of Em’s discography up to MMLP2.
The last verse of Bad Guy must be the greatest verse in the entire rap culture
"Guess 90 on the freeway wasn't the brightest idea"
how stan was going 90 before whole falling off the bridge shit, dope follow up
I saw a lot of breakdown videos of this song but this guy did it way better. Best breakdown channel on TH-cam for sure.
Keep up the good work fam and i hope you react to Legacy by Eminem it's such a great song
Fateh Benadjaoud thanks for that man! And I will do legacy it’s on my list
I think Stan has a more catchy vibe and better chorus but content wise I think bad guy is a tad better
Felipe Magana I agree. That’s why Stan was a single and this wasn’t
Think your answer is perfect!
Touching on the idea that the song is a metaphor from Em's perspective; "my mouth is full of saliva" - as in he's about to start "spitting" i.e. rapping again.
Watched the whole video . Loved it man, keep pushing these em breakdowns out
william pittman will do man!
OMG, yes! You are AWESOME! This is the first time I realised that Bad Guy is actually a double sequel to both "Stan" and "25 to Life"! The last verse is FIRE, equally amazing to the second and third verse of My Darling impact wise, but creativity wise, Bad Guy is just a a step ahead! I just felt sad that Em didn't do a MV on it.
Andrew Zhu yep! Feel the same! My darling demon verses are fireee. Yeah no mv because it wasn’t a single. But that would’ve been dope
@@TheThirdErnest Also I guess the reason for no MV on the song is due to when it was released, it is 2013, and the public are shifting towards more and more of the PC BS, so a MV like "Bad Guy" may just be too "controversial" at the time, despite controversy is what brought Em up first.
was never one of my favorites of em but after the breakdown, it move up alittle. nice work ernest
sherri copeland glad it moved up cuz it’s fire! Lol
This song doesnt get as much love as it deserves and so happy your back faaaaam🔥🔥
Ghalib Andrade I agree! Probably because it wasn’t a single and had to compete with rap god which is an impossible task lol
I have been an Eminem fan for a very long time and the way you just broke down this song to further explain the deeper meaning behind it (especially the ending verse) made me respect Eminem so much more. Your channel is incredible. Thank you.
That "reap and sow" line also makes me want to reach for a play on reaper and soul, I know it's reaching but just for the sake of the whole "Mathew coming for Marshall" it just *stitches* it together in my head 😂😂
This channel is crimmanly underrated
Love you bro keep up the good work♥️♥️
The last verse won best verse of the decade for 2010-2020 and rightfully so.. such deep meaning in that song
When did it happen? Was it a magazine or something?
@@SMSSPFC I was wondering that too
@@approachinglimits it was 2009-2019, just an unofficial thing yeah
Fun fact: 9 hours and 45 minutes is the total runtime of all of Eminem's album's before MMLP2. So it's implied that Matthew Mitchell listened to every Eminem song before he found his address and sneaked up to his house. If it was anyone else, I'd say it was a coincidence but knowing how Em meticulously writes in details in his songs, I think that was deliberate.
Finally someone with some true knowledge got to this masterpiece!!
Love it!!
🐐
Ancyyy NoName it’s so good!
@@TheThirdErnest true.. Track is a perfect opening for the MMLP2!
I remember the first time hearing the song and when that final verse hit. I actually cried for Em because it's so emotional and the exhaustion in his voice in that verse adds so much more depth to it.
The way the voice eventually fades away as well as the song. Sometimes I feel that Em's greatest enemy is himself and his own self doubt.
Shit had me in tears once again cementing why I love this man's music. He's just so good and you hear people say that he sucks, but that's because today's audience couldn't tell real music even if it turned left and smacked them with it's dick.
I'm glad we have someone like you to break these down so that way the new audiences will realize true greatness when they hear it. It's up to people like you like us to help them understand said things.
10 months later but that part of ‘couldn’t tell real music if it turned left and smacked them with its dick’ had me fucking rolling!! 😂😂😂 I agree with everything you said it makes me emotional too that last verse!
Dude, I cried at the 4th verse as well. I think I would have cried harder if it was the final song on MMLP2. But man, his introspection is second to none, and what I point to when idiots be al like, "He has no content!"
When you so early there are no resolution options 😂
edit: yooo that comparison between both songs at the end has so much truth. Thanks for this awesome breakdown, love hearing others explain stuff you might not have caught even the 30th time you listen to these songs 👍
Sleep Deprived facts
Hahaha early squaaaddddd. And I love hearing I can help people catch things they couldn’t before!
You killed it again bro. Thanks for the breakdown.
Absolute best breakdown of Bad Guy I've ever watched. I'm recently subscribed and I appreciate the hard work and attention to detail you put into these videos. Don't apologize for pausing or long videos. We're here for that bro. Keep up the great work! 💪🏽📺
Amazing breakdown.... can’t believe I didn’t catch this channel before and can’t believe this channel doesn’t have subscribers in the millions
What's genius about Em is that his first song on every album is a perfect setup for what the whole album will be, major themes as well as minor themes. Here, he acknowledges regret. That leads to Headlights, Stronger Than I Was, and Wicked Ways
Hey Buddy. Great review/breakdown. Appreciate it. Em’s story telling ability is hella crazy...
JC Flows he gets no recognition for his storytelling but it’s firee
This song just went up a ton after your reaction.....I always loved when Em goes in at the end, but I never knew this was Stan p 2. Love your breakdowns!
If you get a chance, hit up Rap Game or We Ain’t.....🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 tracks
Dave Nastali that last verse is crazyyyyy and I’ll take a look at them man!
Looking forward to it!!
Omg. I just downloaded this album... Omg every song is a banger...
Damn it, every Eminem song u breakdown, I understand more. Love ur videos bro
Dude your the best breakdown reactor on TH-cam you can fill your passion!
Man I appreciate this so much. I would have never been able to understand like this without you. Amazing amazing song Eminem gave us here, wow. Both were fire work but, I am gonna be listening to Bad Guy much more - what an amazing job. #TheThirdErnest thanks for being the GOAT at this, I really appreciate it.. I pretty much started listening to reactions this year and I'm Hella lucky I found your channel :) and that it began with Godzilla ft. Juice WRLD too 😛💗
Someone recommended your channel in the comments of a different video and I'm so glad that they did. Your passion for music is evident in every motion and comment. Subscribed my man, keep up the great work.
Got recommended to visit your channel by around 500 guys on a TH-cam comment.
Bad Guy is my favourite song.
And I am not disappointed.
Dude you're amazing.
The part where Matthew is stating how easy it is to sneak into Em's house could also be interpreted as Em stating how easy it is to gain spotlight and recognition in the rap game after his hiatus. Also "You don't plan for intruders before hand?" could also interpreted as Em questioning how he got so popular in the rap game due to his skin colour, as hip-hop was mostly seen as a predominately black genre of music, therefore a white person is an "intruder". Fucking insane.
also you don't plan for intruders as in fans coming to see him : )
gawd damn i didn't even notice that. em is truly a genius
Always braking it all the way down bro! Not many people get the bars! Keep it up bro!
Cesar Hernandez thanks man!! Thanks for watching
Nice reaction ..! Some parts of the track was difficult but after this reaction and breakdown it’s all good..! Thanks 🙏🏻 more Eminem please like underground and fast lane
Bruh fuego breakdown 🔥 u the goat of Em reactions not even close!
Best bar break downs on TH-cam FACT! Big love from the UK 🇬🇧
Hey, i just got back from Abu-dabzi to Hungary, i travelled to watch Eminems concert, just wanna say thank u for all these videos u put ure heart in them. Without u i would never have enjoyed this concert that much, u were a major help to understand every lyrics. Love, a stan from Budapest ❤🤘😤
Such a great reaction I had to watch it again!!!
NF - "Statement" - "MMLP I'm the bad guy"
I just watched your NF Search reaction. Great reactions so far.
I have been watching ur reactions for a long time and I swear sometimes it's like u are inside Em's head and see everything he writes the way he does. If Em ever watches his reactors I hope ur top on his list. He needs to see the respect you have for him ur 💯
Wow this breakdown is the best for this song that I’ve ever heard
Nothing like watching a video in forced 360p, gotta get that fresh quality content
Also I fully believe Bad Guy is better than Stan, but I also prefer MMLP2 to all of his albums (I've listened to all of them, including the D12 ones) the songs just have so much replay value for me save Stronger than I Was, that one is meh in my opinion.
Also also 9 hour and 45 minutes is the length of Eminem's solo discography including MMLP2, excluding bonus tracks and deluxe tracks.
Mist damn I knew the 9;45 had a meaning but never put that together!
Love the edits! They always make me laugh! ♥️
RA1N Cpino haha good glad I know the effort is worth it!
Thanks Ernest you’re the best 🤘🏻and I agree bad guy is better than Stan 👍🏻
My dude, you are the ONLY person I’ve seen with the take that Em is talking to the rap game in the dichotomy. It’s a brilliant take and I couldn’t agree with you more. In fact, I feel like MOST times em is describing a fictitious villain or foe in a song it’s directly a reference to him and the rap game. The only way he could write something like this is if he himself is a “Stan”. And Em is to the fullest. A Stan for the rap game. Fire review Fam. 🙏🙏🔥🔥🔥
Another GOAT breakdown! I would say Stan had the bigger impact on HIP HOP and had a video and visuals are very important especially nowadays. Stan was darker and so perfectly written story wise. I think Stan story was more iconic maybe because of nostalgia BUT I do agree from a song standpoint from lyrics all the way to the beat bad Guy was better. The ending verse with the demons talking to him and him talking to us is what made this a better song. The way he put it all together about Stan and this song being symbolic and flipping it around like that was GOAT shit!!!
Eminem has outsold every Rapper till this day !!!
Had to rewatch this,you know your Em history🔥👍
When I hear this song..I feel for Em. ..I can't imagine being inside his head..then I hear these kinds of FLAWLESS breakdowns from you and I don't have to imagine!!! 💕💕💕😀😀😀 I have so much love and respect for Em and you my friend...keep up the amazing work you do!! Namaste EA3!!!💕💕💕💕
Deena Schilling thanks deena!! Where’s willie been??
@@TheThirdErnest I saw him back a few songs ago...but he never responded to me. Hopefully all is well and he is just busy.💕💕
I like how you breakdown the bars bro. Great videos
🔥 good job reaching and breaking down ❤
I know you only have 6 subscribers but remember those are the loyal ones before you reach millions. Keep doing what you doing. Huge fan
TF4D 150 always remember the loyal ones that saw the potential!!
Love it bro💪🏻 keep it up
Btw that list better be coming soon
Charles Roberts I gotta make the list it’s gonna be tough lol
Your Breakdown, in my opinion, is just as epic as the song!!.. CRAZY SHIT!!!!
Instant sub!!!...
You are the Best Barologist on You Tube. I love them Shaq and LayedBak, but they don't have your ear and mind. You are good with lyrics analysis and exegesis.
Who need Genius when we have Ernest😍
Thanks, makes the song even better. Last verse lyrics are up there with childhoods end in my opinion.
Such a Dope song review 💯
Thank you for full analysis 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Glad I got to be the 100th like and still no dislikes... should stay that way. Your breakdowns are amazing!
mmddhh34 yo we’re almost at 200 now! It’s lit. Lol
@@TheThirdErnest gonna have to send ya some requests one of these days
That whole entire last part of the song with the screwed mixed voice has got to be the most reflective and self-aware I have ever heard Em. And we all know Em has no issues calling himself out for what he perceives as past bad behavior. That is one reasons us fans love him so much. He has been doing it his whole entire mainstream career. So it takes a lot for me to get goosebumps or a shiver when Em self-reflects because I am so used to him doing it. But when I heard that last part of Bad Guy my emotions were overwhelmed and the goosebumps, shivers, and even a tear all happened at once. He wrote the sh*t out of that verse and delivered it in a way that you knew this was really how he was feeling about himself. It made me sad and that is why I cried because he seems to think not a lot of people love him or appreciate him when we do. Even, surprisingly, Joe Budden's hatin' butt said Em does not seem to realize how the culture of hip hop views him and that he should not have to prove every couple of months that he still has it. He still has it and is still a legend but he doesn't seem to believe that people view him as a legend. That ending was a deep inside view of him. Headlights did the same. I was doing the ugly cry by the end of that song. Both Bad Guy and Headlights are beyond underrated and I hate that. If people would not have slept on those two songs alone they would never be parroting Joe Budden's claim that Em has no content and only strings words together well without any meaning. I feel like us fans needs to rap on video those two songs and all other content heavy songs Em has and post them to youtube so the ignorant people will be forced to listen to his words. I wish stans were more crazy than the Beyhive because they would have made so many videos of themselves rapping it would've be trending for weeks on social media and youtube. Negative voices no matter how so small in quantity will always be the loudest over positivity. I wish there was a way to make Em see himself as a real, breathing Rap God.
I get tears in my eyes every time I listen to the third verse and outro to this song. I do think it might be the best verse he's ever written.And to hear Joe Budden say that Em hasn't said anything for the past 10 years makes me crazy. Some people really are sheep. They will go along with whatever the popular opinion is at the time. Or they will just listen to the loudest voice or biggest platform. It's sad that some people can't think for themselves anymore.BTW - Legacy is another song that hits me hard...really deep song
@@Kiki-xx3fj Joe said all of that to get Em to leave him alone. He doesn't even really believe it. He just did not want to respond to him and to save face he had to go at Em hard and call him trash and lie and say he has not said anything in ten years. When he was on that one show with DJ Akademiks, Joe said that Em always had great content and he is always excited to hear what Em has to say and how he is going to say it. He called him a genius storyteller. Then a year later he is saying the complete opposite to save his own a*s. He came at Em hard for Revival because people in the comment sections under any video of him discussing Em were constantly going overboard with Joe giving Em compliments and calling him all kinds of messed up names and accusing him of being some sort of black slave to Em. I think all that ridicule got to him and despite Em working behind the scenes to do stuff to get Slaughterhouse up and running for their next album, Joe decided to throw Em under the bus to get immature commenters off of his back and it all spiraled from there. Joe can never admit when he is wrong, although he has said on his podcast that he went overboard with his Em rant and exaggerated stuff and got too emotional. Those comments did not get very far on social media or youtube because they weren't negative towards Em. So the narrative has been set by Joe that Em never says anything. It's bullsh*t.
Yeah, I don't actually think Joe believes most of the stuff he said about Em and his music. But it doesn't really matter cuz people are using his words and his arguments to try to discredit Em. So even if Joe didn't mean it, the damage has been done. I didn't know that he tried to explain his rant or take some of the thing he said back. I missed that podcast I guess. I don't listen to all of them. I like Joe and think he's a really good mc and media guy. I just can't forgive him for betraying Em.
Joe backtracked a couple of times on a few different random podcast episodes where Em’s name was brought up. He said he got carried away and overreacted and said Em never had ill intentions or ill will against Slaughterhouse and was just too busy with too much on his plate to be as effective as Joe hoped he would be to help with advertising for the group. I think the attack on Em was not just about Em. I think Joe just does not want to rap anymore due to being insecure with his skills after he lost that battle rap thing and no one cared about his Drake disses or last album so to stop more people from attacking him in rap songs he chose to make an example out of Em by showing other rappers that his podcast fans will believe everything that comes out of his mouth and without receipts and if a negative narrative that is false can be created that quickly and believed about the biggest selling hip hop artist of all time then just think what Joe can do to less successful rappers. Now people will think twice about challenging Joe to a rap beef Joe is scared to lose in anytime Joe says something on his podcast a rapper may not like. This keeps his rap legacy clean and allows him continued success as a hip hop commentator. It sucks he threw Em under the bus like that to accomplish that but Joe has never claimed to be a saint or good friend. Crook and Royce know Joe was full of crap with those Em comments and that is why there is animosity there still till this day.
Amazing video 🔥 loving the content
Samuel Vega
Thanks brotha
Dude your genius at these break downs
Keep up the great videos! I didn’t even think about the Eminem life story part of the song!
RA1N Cpino a lot of people don’t because they miss the part on the last verse where he says Stan and Matthew are metaphors
TheThirdErnest I noticed that but I couldn’t understand what he was talking about until you broke it down!
Basically, Mindblown. Never would've grasped the actual or in depth meaning of the song if it wasn't for this breakdown. Thanks Ernest for this.
Pujan you’re welcome! Glad I could help!
0 dislike due best breakdown 🔥🔥 don’t stop
Eduardo Mirabal Armenteros yo I just saw that!! Dope
I appreciate how you actually break down the bars. Shaq the man cause he funny. But as for breaking down bars. You the best. Scriptwork dope too.
😂🤣😂 i watched your stan reaction til the end that's why i know you're doing this one... anyway, thanks for explaining the verses clearly and telling side story about... very helpful for person like me whose English is not the first language and whose not living there in the U.S. to know everything Em was talking about...
Eminem’s last verse on this song is one of his best ever
Legit can't believe I never saw you break down any of the MMLP2 tracks!!!
I watched it all the way! aaaand your haiiiirrrrrr☺
grace haha thanks grace!
Saw eminem at ACL 2014. Bad guy was played first and that last verse is when Em finally came out on stage. You know...the part of the song that gives you shivers. Will remember that moment on my deathbed
Solid one! 🔥
BRUH..... FIRE🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Waiting on this New Bad Meets Evil, Royce said they got alot of songs done, gonna be fire. I wish Joyner would get of his ass and drop his new Eminem Collab. Thats supposed to be a Stan type story oriented song too.
Can't wait for breakdown of Stepping Stone (maybe couple it with How Come)
This breakdowns bad ass good shit bro....now do the same with the Marshall mathers song
Consistent as fuck. I'm watching this at 4:22am breh, keep at it.
I get it but without Stan, Bad Guy can't exist... I mean, most of the double and triple meanings, world play can't exist... or I am wrong?
btw, dude I fucking enjoy your breakdowns... just awesome
unless you have very good hearing and volume all the way up or listen in headphones, it's kind of hard to hear so most people miss, but at the very end he says "here's a stab in the dark, guess I'll pick up where the last Mathers left off"
Which is insane that he starts out MMLP2 with this song, in my opinion one of his best verses and one of the greatest in history when it comes to reflection that most artists feel, but he picks up with this song where Eminem LP left off, and then right after this comes the skit and the parking lot that foreshadows the later album on music to be murdered by either at the end of black magic or beginning of the next song following it, love revisiting this song
Your Breakdown of the song, was nearly as epic as the Berlin Wall!...
#TopTopchannel
Through the first couple verses of this track, I saw the parallels, and a possible stance from Kim regarding her relationship with Em. I wonder if this may have been intended as a misdirection by Em. What are your thoughts?
Commenting again to say your idea it's a song about his career. I think that's brilliant. "Eminem killed by Eminem" and "having Slim Shady in the trunk"; like he tried to change, and caught shit for it. Tried to kill the alter ego. Damn I love your vids.
Keep going my guy.
Evil twin is a must breakdown eventually
I never recovered
This last verse just won best verse of the decade!
One of the most touching Eminem songs ever, next to Sing for the Moment, which I'm not implying I'd like you to do, but kinda am at the same time :p
Youssef Hamade haha sing for the moment is on the list and I’ll get to it! Promise!
TheThirdErnest still waiting :(
@@TheThirdErnest sing for the moment pls
Bro don't worry about the length of the video. As long as you keep doing these tracks justice nobody cares how long it is. I think ppl actually prefers someone who breaks it down like this who I'm sad to say is only you and a handful of reactors
imran gain thanks man. When the video is long I wonder how other channels can do the same song in like 15 min lol I’m like they must have missed all kinds of shit lol
@@TheThirdErnest haha big facts homie but that is what seperates you from the sheep my G always remember that
Out of curiosity, what camera are you using?
Yooooo!! WTF did I just listened 😳 I never heard this song before,but I'm a huge stan.So I know most about Em.but yo..this song!!!!! I'm stunned bruh.
Remember this fking song came from a little boy who failed 9th grade for 3 times!! Mannnnn
i can't choose which one i like better i like both of them stan for nostalgia reasons but like bad guy for modern era songs connecting the story/timeline of stan to nowadays
Do you think this album is it for Eminem? Do you think possibly he didn’t want to go out with a struggling album and keep trying till he got something big and bad and now he can go?
Finally somebody who gets the bars in this song
This song would be an amazing movie
I like bad guy much better. I think there's a couple reasons why people might think that Stan is better. First one is pretty obvious. But I think the music video helped a lot of people understand it more and connect with it more. Which makes sense. Also Stan came out during m&M's high point and I guess you could call it? He has essentially always been at a high point. But during this time he was a much bigger deal. And lastly I feel like people listen to it and get nostalgic. I love both songs. But bad guy hits a lot harder, for me anyways. Much more lyrical. Especially that last verse. Straight 🔥🚒🔥. That's why they call him 🔥 Marshall.. or.. that's why they call me 🧨🧨🧨🧨. I grew up on Wic wic wic wic wic wit na shirt fuse
As he came into the window
It was the sound of a crescendo
Smooth criminal
Nobody puts this much thought into their music these days and it’s sad! Eminem is a genius and a modern day Shakespeare!
Bar tenders. Bad ass bro..
