My favorite fact about this movie is that Eminem asked Anthony Mackie things about his real life and incorporated that information into his final freestyle (going to private school, two parent household, parents having a good marriage) 😂
The first guy he was battling against (who he choked on) was his best friend irl (Proof). He was also the guy dying in the Like Toy Soldiers music video, which was released in 2005. Sadly just over a year later in 2006 Proof was shot and killed, making that song very touching. Rest in Peace Proof!!!
Funny, the guy in the beginning who you said was trash that Em was battling is his childhood friend, Proof. He is responsible for Em being able to rhyme in Detroit, at certain venues and he could rap his azz off. And yes, Em is one of the greatest of all time, hands down. I’m actually from Detroit, so 8 mile is actually a real road. I’m from 7 mile, where some of Eminem’s friends are from. My favorite Eminem songs are ‘If I Had’ and ‘Guilty Conscience’.
The guy that said “ima murder this man” was one of Eminem’s best friends named Proof that Mekhi Phifer was playing as in the movie just by a different name. He was murdered and that’s one reason Eminem was doing drugs
I’ve watched 8 Mile a dozen of times not because it is my favorite. Nor how influential Eminem’s story is very relatable to our own. But this movie taught me to how find my own individuality like how he (or his fictional character Jimmy) did.
I was 13 when 8 Mile was released one of my favorite Eminem songs is Sing for the Moment Fun Fact the guy who he is battling in the beginning he is one of his friends in real life his name was Proof he was killed in 2006
The little girl is B rabbit sister Eminem-my favourite Eminem songs are 8 mile and Rabbit Run the songs from the movie. I’m glad MJ reacted to 8 Mile. Eminem’s dad died years ago and abandoned him and never meet him has a grown man and his mom is still alive. Eminem’s a good actor
some how it makes me feel good seeing eminems art age well with new generations being that i was a teenager when he blew up on the scene...dude is a legend
Fun fact. The actor that plays Future actually lost his voice at the end of the movie from doing all the hypeful screaming and yelling of excitement that’s why it’s all raspy

remember hearing eminems first freestyles and battles back before he even was on anything and then we knew he was going places when he ended up on Soundbombing 2. that track might be my fave of his.

Something about this movie that has helped me through a lot in my teen years and rn too is ✨Building self confidence✨ for myself since I’m was very shy and scared to speak up 🥹
Eminem's "dad" left when he was like 3 or something, left him and his mom to fend for themselves. His mom at the time was barely an adult herself (she had Eminem quite young). What is there to talk about? It's also said that after Eminem made it big and was in the news a lot, his dad tried to contact him finally, after like 20+ years of never seeing him. If you want a song about his father though listen to "Leaving Heaven" from the album Music to Be Murdered By. It'll give you an idea
Legendary Movie it earned it’s Oscar Eminem acted his ass off and the soundtrack for this film is classic Em The Goat Of Hip Hop Forever!🐐🔥🌟💯(My fav Eminem song of all time is prob “Beautiful” but it changes my fav Em song currently is “She Loves Me”)
I remember watching this movie when it came out, after the movie there were multiple groups of people free styling in the parking garage. lol good times
Im right there with you he's my favorite of all time and this is one of my favorite movies. He will always have my respect and he's still humble gotta love him
You really need to watch Malibu's Most Wanted. In regards to the song, there's too many to pick from, I don't have a favorite. Amityville and Alfred's Theme come to mind right now.
Fun fact, the first guy Em battled was Proof, he freestyled everything in that rap, which is what you would do in a real rap battle. He didn't write anything down and the character "Future" is based on Proof.. that was Proof's job in real life, hosting rap battles and tournaments and he even had the dreads like Future.. On top of being Eminem's best friend. Also in a rap battle, you aren't going to get anything prolific usually. Like you can get some good lyrics, but like it's about the insults and flow more than anything else. In which case Proof's character here did his job and made Rabbit choke. TBH I thought every rapper I heard in this movie, or performer who rapped, was quite good. Some more than others Brittney Murphey said Eminem was great working with closely and he was totally respectful and a real gentlemen I guess. You could tell they had a good vibe going on honestly
truthfully speaking, eminem is the best because the fans say so. what happens if the fans decides to reject him?? it won't happen... but on the real, the power is always in the hands of the fans. he needs us. shout out to the RAP GOD.
This movie came out when I was a freshmen in high school. 50 cent had just dropped in the club around the same time. Aftermath vs murder inc was poppin off as well. Hip hop golden age, good times good times.
In the movie Lily is his sister. In real life Hailie is his daughter, Alaina is his niece (Hailie s mom twin sister daughter) that he adopted and Whitney (aka Stevie) is hailie s mom daughter she had when she cheated on him that he also adopted. Making him a father of 3, plus he had custody of his younger brother. So yeah he definitely loves and care for children.
I used to rent this movie from the video store close to me in my teen years. Now, I have it on Steelbook Blu-ray. Great movie!!! And I also like his music.👍
Lily is not a real person, just a character in this movie (his sister). His children in real life are Hailie, Alana and Stevie. He also has a younger half-brother called Nathan that he took in.
This movie is the greatest. Eminem AKA B Rabbit is a legend. Did you know that Mekhi Phifer is based on his best friend Proof? Who we've seen in the beginning in the battle rap.
W absolutely dope video Mj gotta say my fave Eminem songs are criminal,bump heads and Godzilla can’t lie although it changes often with criminal being the only one I’ve never not included in a favourite Eminem song conversation
Eminem is the Rap God. If you disagree pick up a mic or persuade your favorite rapper to pic up a mic and step to him. Side Note: I'm excited to see it again because this is my second time viewing after seeing it in the show. If you got skills you got skills. Color has nothing to do with it. Also appreciate Eminem likes Mobb Deep. RIP Prodigy. Side Note 2 his love interest Brittany Murphy died at 32 she was on 90210
A have a top 5 list for best song but it's a list that always gets bigger but stays at 5 lol. But all new Em is fire check out the ringer if u haven't heard it
This is loosely based on Eminems life. Also his Mom had adrug problem but she held it down as a single Mom and later in life Eminem realized ain't as cut and dry as it seemed and apologized to his Mother.
In reference to the battle rap style, there is a genius and thoughtfulness to the style of battle rap. There is tons of prep behind it, especially back in the day. Today, u know who u going against since they build it up but back then it was on a whim whoever was in the building. So u had to onow who was on the scene and already have info to use. Its alot of work honesty.
My favorite fact about this movie is that Eminem asked Anthony Mackie things about his real life and incorporated that information into his final freestyle (going to private school, two parent household, parents having a good marriage) 😂
100% factual information. That last battle is about Anthony mackie not the character 😂

Proof is 1 of the few D12 I liked
Also the Future character is pretty much based on Proof.
Dude i didn't know. Thanks for sharing with us.
He snuck in an acronym of his name in the movie when he said "Punish Rabbit Or Obsolete Future"
@@madmagboy*stankface* to that one.
The guy that said “ima murder this man” was one of Eminem’s best friends named Proof that Mekhi Phifer was playing as in the movie just by a different name. He was murdered and that’s one reason Eminem was doing drugs
The rapper with the braids "Lotto"...Nashawn Breedlove just passed away a couple weeks ago. R.I.P.
That shit was crazy dude was only in his mid late 40’s smh
Well... most of the rappers in this film are still alive I guess :( but it's getting closer to most of them are dead
The movie begins with Shook Ones by Mobb Deep and end with B. Rabbit dissing Papa Doc to the instrumental. You could say it was a small foreshadow.
MJ got so hype during the last battle, I’m here for it lol
Hype IS this movie i god damn love every second of it
I’ve watched 8 Mile a dozen of times not because it is my favorite. Nor how influential Eminem’s story is very relatable to our own. But this movie taught me to how find my own individuality like how he (or his fictional character Jimmy) did.

The little girl is B rabbit sister Eminem-my favourite Eminem songs are 8 mile and Rabbit Run the songs from the movie. I’m glad MJ reacted to 8 Mile. Eminem’s dad died years ago and abandoned him and never meet him has a grown man and his mom is still alive. Eminem’s a good actor
The movie came out when I was 8 and I was mad as hell when my parents told me I had to wait till it came out on DVD to watch it 😆
One of my favorite songs by Em is, Beautiful.
Was on repeat for atleast 6 months
@PrestonPowell-jx8bp you mean Lose Yourself because that song inspired me and always my favorite😊😊😊😊
The papers he pulled out on the bus were actually what he used to write Lose Yourself on irl
The freestyle he spit at work against xzibit and the sweet home Alabama freestyle are legendary imo.
some how it makes me feel good seeing eminems art age well with new generations being that i was a teenager when he blew up on the scene...dude is a legend

The guy he battled with the braids at the end just died
Classic. Never gets old.
The dude B rabbit battling at 33:33 died irl a couple weeks ago RIP
To be fair, Wink did saved Rabbit's life...twice from Papa Doc's gunshot. @ 12:37....@ 28:15
But Wink should’ve just been a loyal to Rabbit! It’s a reason why future didn’t fuck with him
True but Wink is playing both sides. He should never banged on Jimmy's girl.
It’s not exactly saving someone if you’re the reason they’re about to be shot lol
That lunch break freestyle was funny calling Xhibit a rapper that never made it 😂😂
The guy who battles Eminem in the beginning is proof, the guy who Mekhi Phifer's character is based off of
The Way I Am is my favorite Eminem song
Dude everytime I watch Eminem and MC BOB when he’s hiding and peeking out the window scene I cry Eminem the only one who gets him on a emotional level
Favorite eminem song is rock bottom, nice this definitely brings back memories
Eminem has mentioned about his dad that he abandoned him when he was a baby
remember hearing eminems first freestyles and battles back before he even was on anything and then we knew he was going places when he ended up on Soundbombing 2. that track might be my fave of his.

My favorite songs are Superman and rap god i can't decide which i like more
Crazy thing is the movie is all about making it to the last battles, and then he goes back to his normal day job. True underdog story.
Lily is suppose to be his sister, he has a baby brother in real life name Nate, who 15 years younger than him. I’m assuming she’s portraying his role.
Great reaction. Continued success. R.I.P. Lotto.
That was proof his Long Time best friend who passed away The one he battled in the begining
Right 😂! Why she said his shit was ass? It’s battling 💯
I’m watching this vid while completing everything in the Spider-Man 2 game🔥😂
You really need to watch Malibu's Most Wanted. In regards to the song, there's too many to pick from, I don't have a favorite. Amityville and Alfred's Theme come to mind right now.
@@kenyattatucker1279King. Kong. Ain't got nothing on me 😂 brrrrrrr
It’s black history month you out yo rabbit ass mind
Em talks about his dad in the song “Leaving Heaven”

Stay Wide Awake is my favorite Eminem song
