Could mean life continually weighing down on you. The meanings are endless. Cause I seen some haters saying "oh he's copying Kendrick" blah blah blah.

      And it goes much deeper than just that because we can all relate to things like regrets we may have, the inner battles we go through, the way the world may try to change us or even not accept us for who we are now. Even in somebody save me. Thats what eminem wouldve been…he wouldve just never had those moments that he does have if he fell back into drugs. There are so many themes and even subtle themes tackled in this album that you really can miss if you are looking at it at face value. We all have parents who maybe we were little harsh too or said the wrong thing or took something for granted or vise versa with kids. The fact this album can tackle so many different things so subtly but also so brilliantly by hiding it im deeper messaging for the people who really listen is quite a trip

    I absolutely appreciate this reaction/breakdown because it wasn't all love, had some honest critiques, and insightful yet realistic opinions on the concept. Big Eminem fan from day 1. I've been telling people this was one of his best, but what I didn't know was why. It's his best artistic creation that takes you on a legitimate journey. Em is second to none. He'll go down as ONE OF the greatest musical artists of all time ❤

    So introspectively speaking I think Slim Shady is also impossible to bring back for Em because it might be attached to Marshall’s drug use. I don’t think it’s a coincidence that he ended the entire album with this “ what if I never stop doing drugs “ track.
    Even throughout the album Slim Shady is forcing pills, forcing drinks down marshals throat in order for him to basically become Slim Shady. there’s even one skit Slim Shady says that he will break the pill in half and take some himself.
    So if Eminem brings back Slim Shady and chases his old self I feel like it might lead him back to old habits which are bad habits.

      You know I just realized, this is such a pattern with musicians. I listen more music in the metal/rock scene and the amount of times "fans" say they and I quote, they "wish he was back on drugs" just to get back the old songs is disgusting. These Em fans basically want to push Em back into drug use without even realizing it. It ain't happening.

    I think my favourite thing you said was this has helped you understand the modern Eminem more and I relate to that. I have loved all aspects of ems career because of the ways he's helped me deal with myself. But I of course have favourite personas n pockets of his. This album gave me every era with reflection while appreciating him today even more. This album is his best album conceptually and in my top 3 favourites of all time. My opinion is only 1 of a billion fans, but this is exactly what I needed as his fan and I'm forever grateful for it coming out when it did. Timing and a legends touch is what makes this piece masterful.

I already loved the album - and got the concept - and heard it back and forth a couple of times... but you still made it hit differently, because you offered the critical perspective of a true Eminem fan that's grown up with his music...

    I feel like another major point Eminem was trying to make with this album is that we all weren’t really listening. We were all just hung up on his slim shady style and wanted it back. So much so that our perception of his albums were more biased than we may know.
    After this album, I went back and listened to his more recent albums but not from the perspective of ‘I hope he brings back old Em style’… and holy shit, it hits different. It was not all great but He WAS rapping rapping in soo many songs. We just wanted old em so bad and nothing but old em.

Like I said, he doesn't say the popular thing, he just says how he feels and almost always sounds genuine.

    This may be the craziest strech of 2024 but, after listening to the whole album and hearing how aware he is of the public opinion of his recent music, and the infamous "R albums" on bad habits(a song about addiction, and refferences to prescription meds) he says "im tryna get out of the habit of saying any R-words, but im an addict so its getting harder" could that have been a refrence to those albums "relapse/refill, recovery, revival" all terms associated with addiction

    What I took from this album is telling us we don’t want slim shady back, we want that feeling we got listening to slim shady for the first time back. To take it deeper, as a recovering drug addict, the addiction comes from chasing that feeling you got the first time. It tricks you into believing you love it when in actuality it’s making you miserable. But you’re looking for that feeling when it’s impossible to get. We can never get the feeling of hearing it for the first time again. So stop searching and appreciate what you’ve got. Might’ve butchered that a lil but I hope the point makes sense. Even with that, I personally enjoy a lot of these songs on their own as songs. But I understand and agree w the point it’s making.

    • @yeshevishman
      @yeshevishman หลายเดือนก่อน +3

      I think that's a very good take, but I think this album is SUPPOSED to be layered.
      As Scru said, it's therapy - confronting and facing the fact that we ALL have contradictions as humans, and that's ok! Therapy is NOT about "getting rid" of what's wrong with you, but coming to terms with it. The main goal of therapy is ALWAYS to come out saying "I'm a work in progress, and always WILL be, and that's ok."
      It's BOTH him going on that journey, AND us being invited to come along. That's why people who aren't willing to go through that full journey don't get it!

    Awesome rundown - just finished and listening to the last song again when you went ‘but he did walk her down the aisle’ made me think ‘what if it’s the perspective of Slim since sobering up and being killed off’. Slim didn’t get to do those things, Em did. Em rapping at slim why he had to let go, why slim isn’t welcome anymore, all the things he is getting to do cause Slim isn’t in charge no more. Slim wouldn’t have been capable - he’s a lost cause and damaged beyond repair.

    Definitely the best review of this album so far.
    Guilty conscience 2 is easily the best AND most important song of the album. The way he rode the beat especially from when the exchange between him and shady started, sheesh it’s an instant classic. And guilty conscience 2 basically buttresses what Scru was saying, Em is best when rapping as slim shady technical wise but with a Marshall Mather persona content wise.

  • @austinellison2415
    @austinellison2415 หลายเดือนก่อน +15

    I personally think em is one of the best if not best rapper of all time and people may agree or disagree. But something that stuck out to me on this break down was, you pointing out how he has all these flows and obviously you and a lot of other fans like one pocket more than another and can’t understand why he doesn’t do more full songs or even albums in that pocket or flow!! And that to me is why I feel he’s so good, because he knows what everyone wants and likes but isn’t just any other rapper like a lot of these copy’s we see today, that just find their pocket and sick in it to appease the fans! Em has always pushed the envelope and tried new things and made the genre of hip hop even better with his quirky jokes and crazy beats and different flows that can work together and still bump. Maybe I’m one of the few that can appreciate that to that level but that’s what’s always set Em apart for me!! Anyways I loved the review and album breakdown, you really nailed it on the message he is giving and congratulations on the new single, love you’re stuff brother keep up the amazing videos ❤

  • @Milkers777
    @Milkers777 หลายเดือนก่อน +8

    I agree both sides of the fence have a misconception of this album the Stans of Em and the haters or even including the casual listener of Em's music. Em isn't "going at Gen Z" it isn't that cut and dry. It's a reflection of himself and the "Slim Shady" part of him, he's intentionally bringing out Shady because without him he couldn't do that concept or the whole "trying to get canceled" thing. And there is no death for Slim Shady in the overall grand scheme of things, it's a part of him. The point isn't to say that it's over, the point is acknowledging Shady is part of Em for better or worse. This album is nothing but flames, Shady keeps outdoing himself it's just incomparable at this point the way he pushes his penmanship. And I must say "Music To Be Murdered By" & "The Death of Slim Shady (Coupe de Grâce)" slap different when you are apart of it's history. I'm so grateful The GOAT Eminem is giving us top tier music this far into his career, this album has no skips! The production sounds the cleanest since "Relapse" where I felt completely immersed within' the listening experience/journey and I feel that credit has to go to Luis Resto who has been working with Marshall since "The Eminem Show" (2002) this album is hella theatrical but also extremely cinematic and the sequences are superb. Em definitely deserves all the praise to come for creating an amazing body of work this far into his recording career, this is truly 100% an undeniable standout in his discography.🐐🔥🎯💯(My Top 5 Tracks: 1) Antichrist 2) Habits 3) Lucifer 4) Renaissance 5) Evil Honorable Mentions: Guilty Conscience 2,Road Rage,Head Honcho,Bad One & Fuel)

That's the time all your realest thoughts come..... And Eminem had me BAWLING at 2am with that track.... I've had a helluva journey thru life that closely related to Eminems life growing up, single mom and saw her beat every night from birth to 13..... She died 5 yrs ago when I was 30 and I had elevated my mind up to that point where she used to tell me she wished I had a father like I am to my daughters and son and maybe we wouldn't have had to go thru those things.. wouldn't been a alcoholic by 17....I've quit now for 12 years......anyways ... It wasn't til she was gone that I truly had questions about that time period.... Trying to learn how to be the best Dad and Husband while battling instinct and realizing responses and actions are dictated by the subconscious and although you have thoughts of how to reacto or conversation to have its an active battle..... Song crushed me at 2am 😂

    Yo, good reaction. But you need to stop whining about the "choppy flows". Isn't it obvious that most of his fans love it? I love it.
    The thing with em is that he is versatile. He knows people have different tastes. That's why he switches flows as often as he does so each person gets to focus on and enjoy the particular cadence they love.
    Also, be honest, you would get bored soon if he just sticks to that one type of flow you like in all his songs. Variety spices things up.

    As one of the biggest eminem fans , i believe this album had some of the best verses , flows and bars ever but not a single great song aside from fuel, i feel scru when he says why doesn’t he stick to those immaculate pockets he get can do so effortlessly, i hope we get a side B where he lets slim take over with those crazy flows

      Yea, technically and sonically its a really solid album but I just dont see myself returning to it besides a couple of tracks.

      @@chedigharsalli4014 I’m all for using the flows, but let’s not get carried away. I like the way Shady spits but I don’t care for what he says. I agree with Em, Shady should stay dead this time…just not those flows 😅
