Right there with you but it was college ✊🏼 Part of the soundtrack of both our lives man. Remember so vividly where I was in life when this album first dropped. Smoking bowls in my tinted window jeep Cherokee that I bought off a part time drug dealer real cheap, my peeps would pile in, MMLP in the CD player, speaker knocking so hard it shook the jeep at stop lights, all of us cruising to Taco Bell in between classes. It’s a wonder we all graduated actually 😂 Seems so long ago now. Probably cause it really was.
Eminem does this a lot, he rhymes every other sentence. So when he says "Let the X destroy your spinal cord, till it’s not a straight line no more Till we walk around looking like some wind up dolls Shit sticking out of our back like a dinosaur" He’s rhyming straight line no more with dinosaur but the way he words things it seems like everything rhymes.
Also in that part, he's using a muliti syllable rhyme and makes almost everything rhyme. spi-nal-cord/ line-no-more/ di-no-saur and then wind-up rhymes with the first 2, but dolls doesnt quiet rhyme. I think if he would have wrote this exact few lines sometime in the last few years, he would have distorted dolls a little more and made it rhyme a little better. Still though. This song is fire and the first still amazes me every time we he flips into the women in pink linen scheme. It's just such a smooth transition.
@@smalltrashman4227 I'm guessing you didn't get the comment which is fine, He's saying that straight line No more and like a dinosaur already rhyme but the way he says the whole part makes wind up dolls sound like it rhymes with it too.
Probably my absolute favorite song of his. Love the message (very anti-sustance abuse but realized kids make short term choices) and the word play, and the swagger of the beat gets me every time. Keep the reacts coming!
He breaks down syllables and then slightly alters the way he enunciates shit and gives your ear the illusion that it rhymed. Its clever as hell and I think he was probably the first rapper who was doing that
And everything's spinnin', you're beginnin' to think women Are swimmin' in pink linen again in the sink, then in A couple of minutes that bottle of Guinness is finished You are now allowed to officially slap bitches, crazy how he rhymed all that
I used to love this song in my early 20's I remember driving high as hell rapping every word to this lol man these reactions are a straight up time machine for me because so much of my early adulthood was a lot of fun and memories and em , Dre , 50 was the soundtrack of my life then
Proabaly one of the first rap songs I could rap word for word. I remembered other songs Bone thugs and Pac at the time, but couldn't rap them. I was like 15
ngl, I got a smile when I saw this reaction pop up in my feed I lived trough highschool blaring this song Your reaction to the first verse was golden hahaha
Been my favorite album since 2000 my order is 1) I'm Back 2) Criminal 3) Kill You 4) The Way I Am 5) Stan 6) Remember Me 7) Drug Ballad 8) Marshall Mathers 9) Who Knew 10) Bitch Please II 11) Kim 12) Real Slim Shady 13) Under the Influence 14) Amityville.... I'll put that top 10 against any albums top 10 ever.
@@kingdingaling413 Bitch Please doesn't even make the top 10! Insane any other album that's a top 3. I went back and forth on 9-11 but what songs in the top 10 does Kim bump off the list? Nothing from 1-9, not even close. So if you're talking debating Kim to Bitch Please that's fair and I'd actually have then 10A-10B. All in all, kind of splitting hairs aren't we?
Hey guys. I just wanted to say I've been watching your channel for a while now and I find it really uplifting when I'm down (which is a lot of the time). You both have a very friendly demeanor and great smiles. Stay cool 🙂
The "wind up dolls/dinosaur" question is a technique he uses a lot where the rhyme is not based only on phonetic sound but instead is based on rhythmic mimicry. So he takes the words and mirrors them by by stressing the first and last syllable in the word pair "windup dolls" to match rhythmic inflection on the first syllable of "Dinosaurs".But then he disrupts it a little bit by stretching the final syllable to just a little bit longer than we would in speech. This creates a double mimicry that we then hear as phonetic rhyming. He aids that by phonetically influencing the final syllable in "dinosaurs" so that is less of a closed "oh" sound and more of an open "o" or "aw" sounds. Thats why he is the king- he understands syllabic rhythm and manipulation better than anyone else can.
He does have dance beats. Its just few and the words ain't always good to place in clubs all the time as you know why lol. Also for fun: Wi-dup-dol /Di-no-sur Just breaking down sounds alone is already hard 😂 writing lyrics is easy but a lifetime to master
If you haven’t Bad Meets Evil by Eminem and Royce Da 5’9 (from the Slim Shady LP album) is dope. And after that they also have Fast Lane which is low key a gem
He makes them rhyme because he's rhyming syllables wind-up-doll di-nah-sore They almost have the same emphasis and pauses how he says them When said with the right cadence to the beat it gives the illusion that the whole shit rhymes. It's why him and so few others are so damn good
I'm glad to see that you're doing other music on your channel as well. Just like you said. It's your channel. Not anybody else's so do what you want to do. I'm glad that you are at least addressing the whole lack of m&m videos though. Because I remember at one point you said you were doing three to five Eminem videos a day then I think it was two to four and then one to two. And now it's one once in awhile. Which is fine. I'll be honest I usually more or less tune in for the Eminem reactions. And will continue to pop by when I see a new Eminem reaction. Glad to see your channel is growing. Keep up the good work guys. I was around when you guys had a lot less subscribers. Makes me happy to see people who work hard and are dedicated get some sort of recognition and their channel actually grows. Take it easy. Stay safe.
"But in the long run these drugs are probably gonna catch up sooner or later but fuck it I'm on one" Those lines aged well knowing he OD'ed years later and almost died.
Listening to these songs while watching you react to them is great lol grew up Listening to all these songs,you shouls listen to pimp like me,that song is insane
Listened to another reaction of this song. And when he said "this ecstasy got me standing next to you" they paused and asked what ecstasy was. Eventually concluding that it must be X. And I've never felt older
I saw you and your girl react to Storytime and saw that you mentioned you did Ghost Love Score, so I went to your videos to scroll through looking for it but I saw this on the way and had to slam on the breaks immediately to check this out instead. I fucking love how you caught so many of the small crazy wordplay things he did, there are so many crazy good bars in this song and he makes things that sound like they shouldn't work (like you pointed out rhyming "wind up doll" with "dinosaur") but he pulls it off perfectly and I love how you were catching all the small details right off the bat. Still to this day MMLP is one of the greatest hip hop albums of all time IMO and Drug Ballad is definitely one of the best tracks on it. Loved your reactions to it.
the girl singing on the song is Dina Rae she she is a song writer and singer mainly she is actually the official back ground female vocalist for eminems D12 group contributing on eminems songs such as supperman , D12 pimp like me , Drug balled , Cum on every body and more .......... Eminem in a interview say he likes her cuz shes not Mariah Carey lol she just sounds like her..... th-cam.com/video/o7OmnpJWxwc/w-d-xo.html Dina Rae and Eminem live
The spinal cord, wind up doll, dinosaur part is insane. And the best thing about Eminem (well… old Eminem) is that he is able to craft his songs with a god-level rhyme scheme and flow, but even more importantly, the songs are actual narratives that make sense and evolve. Lots of the “fast rappers” can write stuff but it’s not intriguing, there’s no story, the bars feel forced just for the sake of having rhymes. Every word in this song sticks to a tone, a theme, a delivery, a story, and even though he’s rhyming four different syllables in each line for a whole verse, the story sounds like real events that your grandpa might share with you sitting on the porch with a 40oz. He’s unbelievable with words.

Spinal cord, straight line no more, windup dolls, dinosaur, high no more, find some more. But he's emphasizing the I's

he also does it with a thing called enunciation
The singer is Dina Rae. She's been on several of Eminems songs (D12 also).

One shot 2 shot - eminem ft d12
If you listen closely you'll hear him whisper " back when Mark Wahlberg was Marky Mark ( fckin fggt)" in the background
I found this song around March of last year even though I’m way too young to know some of these classic songs this was a real hit
He does have dance beats. Its just few and the words ain't always good to place in clubs all the time as you know why lol.
Also for fun: Wi-dup-dol /Di-no-sur
Just breaking down sounds alone is already hard 😂 writing lyrics is easy but a lifetime to master

One of my favorites.

A great track from an album full of great tracks.
