This song has to be on every top 10 Eminem songs, that 3rd Verse is the definition of why music is so important.
This song is number 4 of the 200 greatest songs of all times. And I yes I said song not a rap song.
My favourite verse ever, especially from where he says "but music is reflection of self".
"They say music can alter moods and talk to you".
Fucking fantastic comment. Summed up perfectly 👍
That’s even my No 1 Em track! 🦾
This song is also PRODUCED by Eminem.
Fun fact: the following is an annotation Em himself put on his Genius lyrics for this song.
''This is where I was dealing with critics who didn’t understand why people were identifying with me. I realized I was becoming like the rappers that I looked up to as a kid. I identified with and loved LL Cool J and the Beastie Boys. I felt like if everybody didn’t understand their music, it didn’t matter - they were speaking to me. So that’s what I was trying to make people realize on this track. I may not be shit to you, but there’s a kid in fucking Nebraska, or somewhere, that I’m talking to. I don’t care if you’re listening, because he’s listening. That’s who I’m directing my material at.''
Reading this gave me chills
his annottation for Stan is cool too
That's a fruit for thoughts, bruh 👏👏👏
He said this in fall and No regrets
(I think?) too.
@@JimmyKudoIchigoUzumaki he do it on every album , in "believe" he refer himself as the light at the end of the tunnel
"In the land of the killers, a sinner's mind is a sanctum"
That's a bar! Almost too poetic!
One of my favorite bars ever. That's so much depth in a single bar.
It’s super bad ass to see Stevie got from “ Eminem isn’t my favorite rapper” to the passion that he shows when breaking down Em’s songs. You can tell he really has respect for Em and his talent.
Only does it for the views, don't get it twisted
@@t.r4849 always has to be a hater around. Way to be the statistic dummy
He has admitted ems name gets him more views and that em isnt his favourite rapper but that doesnt take away the fact he respects what em can do and became a fan the more he looked into the history
@@t.r4849 not at all, stevie is honest as heck if he don't like an Eminem song he'll say it and clearly shows it that's why I feel like he's a good reactor to me
@@t.r4849 that why anyone makes a video to put on TH-cam... are you okay?
For anyone who's ever been through shit in their lives
'Til they sit and they cry at night wishing they die
'Til they throw on a rap record and they sit and they vibe
We're nothing to you but we're the fuckin' shit in their eyes
One of my favourite eminem lyrics
I found this song after many years last year during my worst depression. And those lines said so much just in few words... There's a reason anyone who starts listening to Eminem turns into a fan
@@emyf9197 I'm happy he helped you get through it as many other people who got this help from him only through his songs
@@videnvi yeah.. Music is powerful.. I honestly don't know what I would do without it
This was that song when I was a kid man. I can't even listen to it sometimes cuz it hits so fuckin hard. Got me through too much to explain.
Remember hearing it when I bought this album 16 years old, still relevant today at 35. Timeless and perfectly written
"That's why we sing for these kids who don't have a thing, except for a dream and a fu***ng rap magazine." Damn.
That line hit so hard when I first heard it
goosebumps everytime I hear that 🔥🔥🔥
Stevie paused it, I kept singing and still started crying
Notice that the whole song doesn't rhyme, it's only the cadence he uses to make it rhyme, like someone would say magazine but he says mag-a-zine to rhyme better with sing and thing
@@SpitOnP4kiKids I feel you, I did the same thing
One of the greatest songs in music history. Period.
Aerosmith thanks you for the accolades.
@@absolutdog8790 True that hook is dope and the original is also dope. I really like the drum beat eminem added over the hook especially toward the end that builds up tension
"Thats why we sing for these kids who don't have a thing..." i remember the first time i heard that part in a music store and i just froze up.
Froze up and had goose bumps and completely forgot about time a space.
I never felt any piece of music like that part to this day!!
It's 90 degrees and I'm sitting outside with goosebumps all over remembering blasting this song/album in jr
Yep. I was 16 when this song came out and my dad was an abusive alcoholic. We lived in a middle class suburb of Detroit, so I “Stan’d” a little harder than most...especially back then. But I remember I was fortunate enough to have a walk in closet. I would take my CD Walkman into the closet and lock myself in when my dad started to get violent. When this came out, this song was on repeat for months until court ordered me to go live with my grandpa. Exactly why some of us defend him so vehemently.
Damn homie sorry to hear that
Glad you were able to make it out brother. Respect.
I wonder if people still know what a Walkman is 🤔😅
Anyways, stay strong, bruh. I feel you
sorry you had to go through that shit bro. glad you had this music to keep you going 💪
That's why music is so strong to a lot of people, big ups for you man! You made it through and you'll become stronger because of that. Em has helped me a lot, not only growing up, but recently as well. My dad passed 1 year ago, I listened to Em everyday after that happened, wasn't a "normal" death either so dealing with that was a pain in the ass.
He raised is daughter, Kim's other daughter, and niece. And Haley was Valedictorian of her high school.
He broke the cycle of abuse and neglect.
He is A LOT more than people give him credit for. They just hear lyrics and not see the outcome and how he overcame.
Exactly this. This is why he even more than Ppl realise.
Kim deserves much credit in this herself too as eminem has stated in recent interviews. She had plenty of issues too but still raised a well adjusted child. Kim actually had the majority of parental authority for most of Hailies childhood. Hailie lived with Kim in their own home in detroit for 90% of her childhood. Eminem had court appointed authority to have her during the weekends but apparently (this is attested to by Kim and eminem himself later confirmed this) he would just lay in bed knocked out all day and never even pay attention to her and the maid would take care of her the whole time.
The official court records even state that Hailie cried and begged to not have to go and stay at Ems home for the weekends anymore and that she hated going there because he was always in bed. This is during eminems active drug addiction years (2003-2008), he was always knocked out on opiate drugs and stayed in bed. Thankfully he got clean from the painkiller drugs in 2009 and was able to be a loving and attentive father again after that.
Big fucken facts right there!!😎
@@Liverpool5095 Thanks for the education. I am a single mother and know well how easy it is to see us as not doing a good job while the fathers escape that same scrutiny. Still, I never gave a thought to Kim's true role in Hailie's upbringing.
I always tell my kids I am not proud of them for what they achieve in life, like so many parents are. I don't tie my pride in my children to their accomplishments. Some people value friends, family, or even personal pursuits like perhaps art and such, over ambition and will gladly work a low paying job to be home for the kids or others things.. I am proud of them for being well-adjusted, decent, and kind people. I am happy for them when they achieve their goals.
My daughter works as a home health aide and wants nothing more than to be a good mother to her daughter. She has achieved her biggest goal in life, overcoming the incredible risk of grand mal seizures causing her to miscarry. She has a healthy little girl and is extremely happy in life. My son works as a flagger for a road construction company and games online on his time off. Some parents would push him to do more but he is very happy and is a tremendous support to others around him, something I personally value.
Kim raising Hallie to be such a person speaks volumes about her as a parent. Thank you again for bringing me to this view of her.
Nice
Last 30 seconds of his verse still gives me chills to this day. Literally saved me in dark times. Thanks for this reaction fam!
This song along with Beautiful actually saved my life ngl. Im what I'm and I'm here cuz of Em and I'll always think of him as my lifesaver. That stupid guy is long gone and all that's left is this living breathing guy who's determined to achieve his goals. Thank You so much Em, thank you from the bottom of my heart ❤️
I felt this shit. so many of his songs have got me through some tough times ...
Beautiful is such a great song man.
Man the amount of nights I've spent listening to this song crying. Feeling like I don't fit in anywhere. Em really helped me though my childhood. This is why I love this man so much.
Same ❤️ I'm almost crying just reading these comments, he helped so many of us through so much, especially if you listened to him at that age... I feel you
This was me man... This was me at one point in my life.
same
well i guess im in your position now. hope i find hope like you did.
This song still hits so hard all these years later
Plus this song epitomizes what TES album was all about
"Every bit of me is the epitome of a spitter when I am in the vicinity..." -Godzilla by Eminem
@@hikelfin yup
@@hikelfin 😆
True!
@@hikelfin thanks 😆
This song speaks to my soul every single time. This is why it’s so easy to Stan his music 🔥 🔥
Me too
16:16-22:23 *That ending of that 3rd verse is amazing and the comments Stevie made after is exactly why a lot of us around the world are fans of Eminem music.*
I think the use of the *Aerosmith* hook also relates to the older *Eminem* fans...
I’m happy it took Stevie this long to get to this masterpiece.
Because now he understands the background and it just hits that much harder.
This made me so happy. ♥ Watching Stevie appreciate it like he did, like I did, like I do.
It was a surreal experience to be able to relive the first time we grew up to love Slim and the emotional rollercoaster he took us through...
was coming to say that! so much better this way
"in the land of the killers, a sinner's mind is a sanctum. " holyyyyy shit that's hard.
@@hikelfin yet everybody just feels like they can relate,
i guess words are a motherfucka, they can be great
@@Andreicbs1 or they can degrade
Or even worse they can teach hate
The bars in this comment though
IMO no rapper ever would have a chance against 2000-2006 Eminem in his prime, this song is so simple yet it’s absolutely genius

@@amitdutta81971996-2023, period. It's ok is still one of his best songs in terms of flow and cadence, as for me
Much love for all Eminem’s fans around the world much love from Middle East
what makes this song way more impactful is the fact that em wasn't only talking about his fans, he was talking about himself. HE is a Stan himself to the Rappers he grew up Listening to, ll cool j, treach, ice t and all the other ones he talks about. so when he wrote that last verse, he knew exactly what he was writing about. and THAT is why Eminem is the goat.
You can tell those last lines he's talking about himself as well as the fans.
"Or anyone who's ever been through shit in they lives, till they sit and they cry at night. Wishin they'd die till they throw on a rap record and they sit an they vibe. We're nothin to you but we're the fuckin shit in their eyes!"
You know that was him, when he was listenin to Pac and LLcoolJ and all that.
This song is also significant to anyone who makes music
Why because of the classic rock?
@@thisisisabella3634 because of the perspective of someone who writes music for other people who are going through similar things in life
@@ShadyMcKnight Yeah but just about anyone who wasn't born with much privilege can relate the same even if they don't make music.
@@hikelfin Thank you Comrade.
@@thisisisabella3634 man, 100% this song is for a lot of different people. But I can say as someone who grew up poor but now makes music, it hits on a couple levels for me
I love how whenever Stevie hears the first censored word he gets mad lmao. Every time hahaha
It's songs like this that em put out that make me scratch my head when people like snoop or jamar or any hater that says "we don't bump his shit" or "we don't relate to his shit". You can't tell me that songs like this can't be related to in one way or another.
Right Exactly Why Just Why
Lmao bro you picked possibly the worst example ever
This is literally the Aerosmith song “dream on”
Not many hood rappers are out there bumping Aerosmith 😂…
I get what you’re going for, but this song isn’t going to relate to “them”
They simply don’t wanna admit Eminem is the 🐐
Rakim done gave him the stamp fuckn decades ago, and he’s the same one all the dudes who hate on Em, say is the goat 😂
It’s simple jealousy and bitterness
Em doing what he’s doing with Snoop recently shows how mature and far Em has come
People born with a silver spoon cant relate to Em'. I am from India. I have cried listening to Em's songs so many times and I dont even take Lamar or Snoop's songs seriously .
This song is greater than drake’s career
🐐 comment!!
Cmon man stop comparing. Stop spreading hate. Both artists are A-tier
@@raedewav no theyre not, dont compare that mumbling piece of clout chaser with a legend
@@raedewav I don't think Drake is A-list. He doesn't have an MMLP or SSLP for example, or an album on that level.
@@luxotiica4223 Man, you're still complaining about mumble rap
my life in no way similar with Em’s life. im not american, i love my parents. But Em’s music SAVED me in my lowest time when my father was ill and i had to be the one to take care for him. For that i will be fan for life
Fuckin aye, I grew up in a pretty good environment, never worried about food or a roof but when my dad passed away when I was 14, Em was a massive part of me just getting through a day. This album specifically, I can listen to it from start to finish and it takes me right back to a time I had to grit through it.
He kept a fire burning inside, not anger or hatred, but a want for moral justice or something. You don't have to have the same life. Music is art, it's how you interpret it. Just remember that strength doesn't come without pain.
Hit the nail in the head.
That 3rd verse always makes me feel understood and proud of the shit I went through as a kid to get where i'm at today
Thanks for this one Stevie, right in the feels
My Rose's to eminem while he is still alive.
Tru G
Em getting Stevie in his feels lol I love it... All I can say is, this song is one of the reasons I'm ride or die for this man, Em's life is so inspiring to me because he used the only thing he had which is his God given talent to turn his world upside down and now he's the king of his world and that's what his fans use to fuel them and why they fight so hard for this guy
Sadly his God given talent is also his curse
@@loosekanonstan3648 well yeah but I think he feels better off knowing that he has given his family a better life than he had or would have had without his talent
@@loosekanonstan3648 So is every real artist bro. Nothing new
I remember as a kid- I grew up in a trailer park with my single mom and 2 sisters- listening to this song on REPEAT all the time, my loyalty to Em is only reinforced for reasons like this, music is crazy impactful and its helping me through work and college while battling internal issues too, Em is the goat. Enough said.
Hope you make it through the issues you're dealing with. Stay strong
@@AHV415 thank you, I really appreciate that I hope you’re doing well also!
Hope you doing better bro
@@LONEWOLF-nx3tm thanks bro 🙏
I feel like tht type of passion kids nowadays have with NF.. Since his music is majority abt human struggles n motivational things n reflection of life etc I mean he's a big fan of Eminem too (don't know if he still is tho, although he talked abt Eminem being huge influence on him n had him on top of top 5)
But yeah Eminem music such as beautiful n not afraid till I collapse n this played randomly on Spotify last year when I was on my lowest.. N the timing was perfect. There's a reason why he has the most loyal crazy fan base
Thank you Stevie for letting that rock till the end cause that beat hits AF
When I was young teenager this shit spoke to me it literally described me to a fucking T , dad gone, mother strung out, little brother taken by the state, poor as shit, moving from place to place never able to be secure. Music was my key to survival. I have literally laid down at night crying myself to sleep then I put a rap cd and I sit and vibe , saved my life
React to Stepping Stone - Literally explains the whole D-12 Story and gets deep and emotional

Shits soft
@@MrfuckinBeilke lmao just like you tryin' to look "haRd" on a TH-cam comments section 😂🤷🏻♂️
Video Archives yeah cut the bullshit
Stepping stone is a great song
You listen to a song like this and it just makes you scratch your head when people say Eminem has no place in the game and that rappers like drake are better him. NO
Didn’t have to drag Drake down to make that point. Same way we may feel about Em, people feel about Drake. His music can mean the same to some people that Em’s music means to us. He’s also really good and has been on top for almost a decade.
@@dah500 I agree to some extent, however the reason Em’s music hits more is because he writes his own shit, about what shit he went through and all that, while Drake has ghostwriters writing for him. Just imagining Em placing that pen to the pad and writing this masterpiece makes it hit so much more. In my opinion. But again, music is subjective.
@@dah500 Agreed. There's no need to drag him down. Different people have different taste, and somewhere a kid sits in their room with a picture of Drake and feels the way Eminem felt with his posters on the wall.
And I do feel a bit of pity for Drake to have been 'caught' having used a ghostwriter, because it will hang over him alllllllllllll his life even if he never does it again and only did it once or twice. Bad decision, Drakey, but he'll be fine 😉
Christian Gergeo Drake by in large has written everything he’s released. He has used ghostwriters but you can’t take 160 songs that he wrote and then discredit his writing ability because 5 may have a couple lines that were written by someone else.
@@dah500 not trying to discredit Drake, but we both know that he’s had ghostwriters writing for him on more than 5 songs. He was caught using ghostwriters on those, imagine all songs that he wasn’t caught. But for me, it does not matter because Drake is not a lyrical rapper. I listen to him when I want to vibe, not want to catch vibes. Again, not trying to discredit him.
I clicked on this so fast, been waiting for Stevie to react to this! The whole 3rd verse is fire but I specifically love the lines..
"That's why we, seize the moment try to freeze it and own it
Squeeze it and hold it, 'cause we consider these minutes golden"
Still get chills!!
Ah this song is just pure nostalgia. Massive part of my childhood 😭
after hearing this, how can they say he isn't for the culture. when he creates a safe haven
for his fans the way he does
Real talk
I've been waiting for this one. This is my absolute favorite Eminem track of all time.
Eminem has always been an inspiration for me as an artist 🙏🏽 My dream is to make a song with him🔥 I’d appreciate if y’all check me out! Love 🖤

You said you can touch what we the stans go going on between Em and that's the realist shit you ever said. As an African man living in Southern part of Africa I been a fan of Eminem since 1999 and I was 9 then. 21 years later and I am still rocking hard with him while being amazed at how his development graph has peeked over the years. We are witnessing his prime for the second time. Greatest of all times for sure

Been a Em fan for 20 years, listening to this songs still gives me chills. Love watching your reaction videos!
Just FYI the chorus/beat is a sample
From an Aerosmith song “dream on”
i pray to God everyone knew this already
Knew that. Old rock fan here 😎
The chorus was actually sung by Steven for this song to. It's so awesome to see the world come together like this for a song with so much impact.
@@billmiller2471 Good music is good music, regardless of genre, it touches your soul.
@@peterk2735 yeah I agree 100% I'm a huge believer that if the music speaks to you even if you're the only one that likes it then it makes it good music.
My mom didn’t care for me listening to Em at first until I played Stan for her. Brought tears to her eyes
My dad was the same until he heard Cleanin' out my Closet. I had so much pain from my mom's selfish shot and my parents were going through a divorce. My Ozzy and AC/DC loving dad still jams to Eminem.
Another really cool thing about this song is that the instrumental is from "dream on" by Aerosmith, and when em asked them if he could use it they not only said yes but their guitarist made that solo at the end custom for his version. Respect from legends of another genre
The song was called Dream on by Aerosmith
One of the greatest songs ever made. I will never not get chills at the third verse. Simply haunting and beautiful.
i was 15 when this song came out... still hits
I hope eminem doesn't diss Iz Azz because that'll give him the attention he wants. "Lose lose for me, win win for you"
He will diss him somehow without mentioning his name like he's done Nick 🤣
I feel you I light weight just wanna watch em body the fuck out this 🤡 tho
Who cares if he gets attention, also Eminem does not lose anything by him getting the attention, Em should do it just for fun
He did, and to all the other clowns, in advance.
“But you better bring it if you wanna reply from

During really dark days as a kid (abusive Step Dad), this song hit my heart. To know he’s making music to keep himself and us going hit me in a way that I didn’t expect. This song still brings me to tears when he says “Or for anyone who’s ever been through shit in they lives, they sit up late at night wishing they’d die”. Right in the feels
Hope you are doing good now. Hope your step dad didn't break you and you stayed strong and realised the world is full of love

@@UncleRandy73 He didn't get the Relapse shit right tho and he realizes it now (hence discombobulated) However it's not an album you like on the first listen...not a masterpiece but definitely not a bad album . The dope tracks are really dope, the meh songs are really meh (6/10 imo)
This is my favourite Em track, timeless, motivating, introspecting, banger
In my first car,I have just one tape to listen and it's The Eminem Show and this song rewinded to many times,best Em' song for me period.
Eminem between 97 and 2002 was possibly the greatest artist to ever exist in any genre. If anyone knew the amount incredible songs this man has written..I love this song the 3rd verse so perfectly describes what music is to people that love it..especially rap. People resonate with others pain. Pain shared feels halved. It's the beauty of life and someone who's craft is solely dedicated to expression.
Y’all think Stevie is one of us yet? I feel like he’s becoming a Stan more and more he digs into Em’s discography. And I’m here for it 💯👌🏼
Em is taking over reaction channels dawg ... for real 💯💣
@Chris Jones good point. I wish people stop narrowing the meaning of Stan. Ngl I watch Stevie only for Eminem reactions, that's the kinda Stan I am.
Everyone that listens to all Em's discography will become a Stan. Most people who don't like him haven't listened to enough of his music.
I remember when Stevie started reacting to Em’s newer stuff first and didn’t know what a lot of the references were about. Cool to see him slowly Stan out even if he probably won’t admit that he is 😂
I remember my uncle would always shout at me telling me that I will go crazy rapping to Eminem's songs.
13 years later and now he listens to him🙆🏾♂️
This song helped me recover from my painkiller addiction. Listened to it non stop with my headphones while I was ill lying in my bed! Brilliant motivational song that spoke to me x

The lines "or for anyone who's ever been through shit in they lives, so they sit and they cry at night wishing they die. Till they throw in a rap record and they sit in a vibe." I think I was in 4th grade when this song came out and that was the first time Eminem, (shit a song in general) made me tear up. Because for the first time in my life I felt like somebody understood what I felt at the time.
This song changed my life, it helped me through dark times in my teens, now at 33 I look back and im thankful Eminem came along, he helped a whole generation of us adults who were kids at one time with the world on our shoulders

@@renderedobsolete I'm sorry, Mama... I never meant to hurt you
@@hikelfin never said it wasn't lyrical, but rather that its not his MOST lyrical :)
@@hikelfin i mean its no book of rhyme, or rap god style. quads and triples all over and every word connects to another.
Yes he does have complex lyrics on there, but thats not the focus of the album. its more of the sound and flow. and just plain emotion from the album. cleaning out my closet, soldier, say goodbye to hollywood, sing for the moment, hailies song, those just grab you EMOTIONALLY.
You either feel sad, or feel like you can go through a concrete wall, all in the same album.
Top 5 songs right here. I remember being 7 years old hearing this at my dad’s friends house. Will never forget it!

I still remember when I was a teenager and I secretly got this cd. My father came home from work and heard it in my room, walked in....grabbed my cd and snapped it in half. Told me there is no way I could listen to this. I am not 35 years old and I own all his albums....Dad couldnt stop it.
🔥🔥🔥 I'm a older black woman and I don't listen to much rap anymore but I still rock with Eminem #Facts I love your channel🤗❤
React to Toy Soldiers? - and the video too it. Love your reactions and how you break down the bars.
Yeah been a fan since 1999-ish they tried to ban him from coming to UK at one point, it didn't work back in 2001 but they still banned him from performing at HYDE Park just a couple years ago. He's faced and overcome so much and is a great artist all round. As big and successful as he is he's still somehow underrated and misunderstood completely.
the third verse is the greatest
I nominated it to be the verse that goes toe to toe with the best friend verse.
@@meshlaw5757
with all due respect, Stevie did not give it the right analysis and the right passion and energy the verse deserves.
And bad guy last verse . Verse of the decade....
@@hassanisongslyrics2761 exactly, he only reacts to em because it grows his channel and gets most views, sad but most of these reactors deep down don't like em, only scriptwork to sincerely fuck with his music
Man, every time that I listen to this song, I can't avoid bringing the tears down of my face! This song is too deep and it relates to many of us! Thank you Eminem, for being an inspiration for us ❤️
He wasn’t as complex with his word play and all the multiple meanings this early in his career, but myself and a lot of EM fans would agree this is one of his best albums. If you listen to this whole album he was so on point with his rhyme schemes it seems like he would rhyme whole sentences or multiple words in every sentence... Not just this song but every song on this album, Also with content and flawless ability to ride the beat. A true artist at his craft
Bro this is literally my favorite song of all time I'm so glad u reacted to it
I even got a tattoo of a cassette with the name of the song on it, it got me through some tough shit
Damn this is my fav song too
Dope tattoo 🔥💯....My favorite too❤
@@Remedi88 thanks bro, it truly is a very relatable song for the Stans and the og fans
Such a great song and example of em being a TOP TIER rapper
Honestly one of his top 5 verses was in this song. When he’s talking about “how the f did this metamorphosis happen, from standing on corners and porches just rappin”
That entire verse is crazy good and deep on so many levels. Plus who can rhyme metamorphosis
I'm only a few years younger than Em, and I remember the insane backlash from the mainstream to him blowing up. It was everything from politicians to the news to religious figures to feminists to the music establishment to parents freaking out like he's infected their kids with some virus or something, while at the same time he had people coming up to him trying to test him he also couldn't have a second without fans coming up to him, it was an insane global phenomenon. I guess when you've seen that happen and then keep following and seeing what's been happening with him since then, on top of appreciating his skills, it's impossible to understand younger people who think they know what they're talking about because they maybe sorta heard a hook or two from his hits.
And I'm saying this as someone who's not even a "proper" stan, just being around through all this and hip hop being one of the genres I listen to. He wasn't even the first rapper I listened to, I'm just tying to explain that there's a lot of sympathy for him out there even outside the hardcore Stans.
Masterpiece.
Nothing else you can say really.
You know what's crazy too about eminem.
Why the fans love him so much. Is because he tells you everything about himself.
What other rapper do you know the name of they ex? What other rapper do you know they kids name?
And that's not from Wikipedia or some shit. He tells you all that shit openly.
Oh shit you just made my point at the end. Haha.
I'm more convinced than ever that there is two types of people in the world: People who think eminem is a legend. And people who have never heard an eminem track that wasn't on radio.
damn, props.. a lot of people don't realize this but you get it! that's why Eminem said 2pac was the greatest rapper ever because they're cut from a similar cloth in terms of their approach to making music. he puts his soul out there in his music that's why he keeps to himself.
@@yogi2983 and the boy can write a hook... Which a lot of rappers can't do.
Thats the other thing I always realise when I watch these reactions
@@AGfrom83 yup! you're absolutely right. that's why I laugh when people compare him to canibus. it's the most stupid comparison I've ever heard
This song still gives me chills everytime i hear it and i have to fight tearing up it helped me take the gun out of my mouth on more than one occasion!
You made me come back and listen for first time in a decade. This song is legend.
When you say simplistic, I mean I get that in terms of puns, doubles, tripples etc. But the rhyeme scheme and work bending and cadence was off the charts. if you listen back with the lyrics, you'll see how complex the rhyme schemes were
Tjats cuz em wasn't heavy on the puns tripls n dubs til the 10s decade of his goat career
@@JayK07 I agree. That's why I think Stevie doesn't fuck with SSLP and MMLP as much because Em was on shock value, saying crazy shit in the wildest ways, in terms of flow/cadence and complex rhyme schemes and story telling.
One of the most important songs in ny life. I was a teenager, times were tough, i felt this shit. I turned out well 😀
How has no one recommended We as Americans? One of Eminem best unknown songs
Love the fact that you searched for an *Uncensored Explicit Dirty* version *Music🎶Video* instead of going to an *Uncensored Lyric Video*
Sir...you have become a Stan. Now you get it... He has wore his heart on his sleeve since the beginning. He has always been an open book. That is why it is so easy to be a stan
LESSSSSS GOOOOOOOOOOO. STEVVVVVVIIIIIEEEEEEEEE THIS IS MY ANTHEM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I still cry sometimes listening to this song. Eminem helped me out and probably saved my life a few times... this man messages are way bigger then people give him credit for.
Been waiting for you to do this song bruh! Top 5 Eminem song for sure!
Eminem ft. obie trice, stat quo & 50 cents - Spend Some Time
Fire song🔥🔥🔥🔥
Still gives me goosebumps. TES is hands down my favorite album
Hands down top 5 hip hop albums of all time 👌🏻
This is why we love listening to Em, he can mic up cadence, rhythm, and always still come out the message that drives it to the brains and hearts of his fans and even his haters.
I got a tear in my eye while I sit on break, from all the em songs you have reviewed you waited so long for this one and i couldn’t have needed more today than any other day, thank you mr knight ❤️ follower for the long run 🏃🏽♂️
I think the song should resonate with anyone who likes hip hop due to that 3rd verse, strong words
Damn, finally...
Eminem has always been an inspiration for me as an artist 🙏🏽 My dream is to make a song with him🔥 I’d appreciate if y’all check me out! Love 🖤
Its finally time though. Now he's ready. He understands why this song hits so hard. This song always makes me tear up because I remember who I was when this album hit, and this song spoke to me then. Stevie wouldn't have understood until he learned enough, now he really gets it.
Give me chills every single time i listen to it , even 15 years later hearing it again, fuck man . Timeless.
Yo Stevie, Knox hill just shouted you out on his Az Izz diss track. This prolly doesn’t mean alot, but ayyy
I was about to tell stevie to react to it for that reason haha
@@Kevin-nm8hn DM him then so he can react to it
Who are these whack ass rappers? I hope he doesnt react to it
@@ismail10_02 Knox is another respected bar breakdown channel. He’s an irrelevant rapper and that’s why I said, “This prolly doesn’t mean a lot,”
Wait...knox hill dissed Stevie? Lmfao...I gotta hear this
