He made This after He Almost lost his life from Drugs , Not Afraid Is About Take resposobility for His Life Doughter. He made this song about Himself but He said he probably can do this for you
I always loved this song but never really took in the meaning. I was still an addict when this came out. Now I've been in recovery for 10+ years, and lately I've been struggling again. Hearing this today has given me the insight I needed. It brought me to tears, and I feel empowered. God bless you on your recovery.
@@as7326 I know that we don't know each other but if you need to talk or vent you can contact me and I will happy to help in any way I can. Good luck on your journey and I pray that you get through this rough spot. I'm coming up on 6 years and I have bad days as well. I just have to remind myself that the life I have now is way more important than going back to who I was.
@@Pinkfan112173 Thank you so much. I haven't had a full relapse but a couple of slips in the past 2 yrs. I came in contact with some old friends and overestimated my sobriety. What saved me in the first place was completely cutting such people out of my life. I figured after10 years clean I was strong enough to be around a couple of them... until it was in my face. I've kept my distance since my last slip, and though it hurts them and me, because they are people I truly love, I know that I can't remain friends. Even my now sober friends are a trigger, but those friends understand why I don't contact them. I feel strong in my sobriety and will continue to do whatever it takes to never return to the life that almost killed me. Thank you for your support. It's good to know I have a new friend now who has my back! 💜💜💜
Girl same. I have 3 years and it's the hardest thing I've ever done but seeing that Em could do it made me feel like I could! Just wanted to say congrats on your sobriety, keep your head up!
When I first heard this song I just wanted to hug him for putting this out. He put his struggle into words (like the master lyricist he is) and I think it’s helped alot of people going through similar stuff know they aren’t alone and that you can pick yourself up again.
I think you had it right the 1st time..Eminem is The GOAT!!! I'd put him up against Any other rapper!!! He'd win!!! No one else is on his level!!! He's married to the game! He eats & breaths Rap!
@@strongbear88 He's a good rapper...no doubt there! But I dont think Royce could beat him...Imo. I think lyrically it would be close...but Em has taken his talent to a whole other level! Idk. It would be interesting to see for sure! lol
@@strongbear88 Royce? Da 5'9'? For real haha he's good but nowhere near Eminem, and I could name a few other mainstream rappers who are way above Royce as well. Plus most people who like Royce only know of him because he works with Eminem so much
This song helped me get through the first few months of my own recovery, proudly and thankfully 2.5 years clean now and this man was a big inspiration for that. If he can rise above his demons and come out the other side, so can you
This man when made it he went and got his younger brother out of Foster Care, he had his daughter Hailey and his x wife had a little girl by someone else and her sister was on drugs he adopted those 2 little girls plus his biological daughter Haley and his and raised all of them by himself Em is a good guy 💙👍🙏
I am primarily a metal head and old school rock person and I haven’t listened to a lot of rap in depth but I do love Eminem from the moment he hit the scene.
What really gets under my skin about Eminem, his fans, career, and his life, honestly began with this song. I remember the first time I heard this song, I had it on repeat for a week straight, showing everyone I knew this song. I was so hyped, and this song meant so much to so many people. His life turned around, he had his priorities in check.. Then, his fans. The Stans, if you will, harping on this dude about, "ahh, this music is shit, I miss Shady, bring back Shady, where's Shady?" Like, let the dude evolve, man. And after some time, in several of his songs, he mentions how "you wanted Shady, you got him!", and lines like that.. Don't get me wrong, I love his music, and his aggression. The surprise drop of Kamikaze was great and all, but I have to wonder if it gets to him on a personal level, you know? Trying to recreate himself (which is is succeeding at, to be fair), but people just won't let him be anything else but his Shady persona... from 20+ years ago. Anyways, keep at it Jojo, looking forward to the next one.
One of the biggest songs of Em, brings me memory of when I was in high school 2014, it was one of my favorite songs Still one of my favorite song, never get old
Thank you for genuine reaction. Kids nowadays don't know this song exists, or they might know but don't know the deep meaning of it. This song is a masterpiece!
"Life gets hard". Son, you haven't even touched the face of it, and I say that knowing you lost a friend. I have lost two sons and I honestly don't believe even *I* have touched the True Hardness of Life. I know way too many people who have had it so much Harder than most of us. I'm Grateful for that. It taught me the hard lesson, To Enjoy the Blessings You Have.
The best lyricist imo. King of Double Entendres...i could go on and on. If nothing else the man is honest. Just blunt, like here I am. So much heart and soul and he's brilliant in the mind too.
I don't think most people put this song among Em's best, but it was really important. He was dealing with addiction and his Relapse CD pretty much flopped. This was his "come back" song. When you think about the songs he has had since this one (Godzilla, etc) he really upped his game. This song speaks truth, it was his rebirth, the moment he literally upped his game to a new level.
You’re right it definitely has one of the best hooks from any Eminem song and any song in general. Please react to No Love featuring Lil Wayne. Probably one of Em’s best verses in my opinion
It's hilarious how many time in your eminem reaction you say he's the best rapper then gotta catch yourself and say top 3. LMAO! Don't feel bad about it, we all know, you will accept it soon to, he is the Goat! lol!
"Life is hard." I was diagnosed with epilepsy when I was a teenager and now I'm in my thirties. Life is impossibly hard sometimes. Eminem helped me through a lot of it. I'm glad he's helped so many others.
I genuinely enjoyed your reaction, you've grown tremendously in all genres of music 🤌 I'm not writing this because you were respectful to Em but rather because you deserve it. You were closed off, impatient, judgemental, & disrespectful at times when reacting with your Dad - but that is typical of teens. I'm incredibly impressed 👏
5:25 👍😁 We heard you!!!!!! He is the best rapper in the business.... No shame in saying it. Doesn't mean he has to be your favorite but as in terms of longevity, career, talent, awards, lyrics, speed, pronunciation, meanings, entendres, disses ,and just straight spittin facts..... Eminem is the GOAT 🐐 don't have to like it but it's a fact!!
Eminem is make statement for lots of people who have drug or alcohol issues to get help for themselves and how they can build their relationship or help people with same experience in society. This song is definitely make me understand people who have problems and need support for metal health care
HipHop/Rap/Grime/Drill has not been a particular color for a long time. From India to England to Russia to Brazil to New Zealand to Germany to Australia to Spain to EVERYWHERE around the world. Lets keep it real ✌🏽💫
With the whole “instead of getting crowned you’re getting capped”… also could take it is as instead of them getting a crown , they get a cap like a baseball cap… then thinking they’re the king but not …
a bit unrelated to eminem, but i feel like you’d enjoy songs by deftones!! my own summer (shove it) has one of the sickest riffs i’ve heard although parts of it are heavier rock; passenger, change (in the house of flies) & sextape are all amazing as well and stay more calm. love your videos man.
I red somewhere that that line was aimed towards Sug Knight and Diddy in reference to the East/West conflict from what he came out of. I could be wrong. ( It's possible 🤣) but it does carry Merit
This was a big deal because he was struggling from addiction and made this song in response to the fan support for his recovery.
He made This after He Almost lost his life from Drugs , Not Afraid Is About Take resposobility for His Life Doughter. He made this song about Himself but He said he probably can do this for you
@@anthonyscarlet1996 Probably can do this for who? It's not that deep. He made a song after getting clean. That simple
@@el34glo59 it’s not just a song it’s an entire emotion
Eminem produced this and Lose Yourself himself which makes him the only rapper to produce his 2 diamond singles by himself
and grab an Oscar!
I am a recovering addict and this song really helped me get through it. It resonated with me and my struggle.
I always loved this song but never really took in the meaning. I was still an addict when this came out. Now I've been in recovery for 10+ years, and lately I've been struggling again.

yea cause he created his own talent ❤

He has 3 daughters
We heard that! He is the best rapper, no shame in that
I like your reactions youngblood! Very descriptive, inciteful, and knowledge to back your statements! Em is the goat hands down
I am primarily a metal head and old school rock person and I haven’t listened to a lot of rap in depth but I do love Eminem from the moment he hit the scene.
Em got all his boxes check he can do it all
🔥🔥🔥 EMINEM's TOP 5 for sure. Impacted and Inspired Millions of people!!! Love your father's content btw, very cool guy 😎
Em is the best of all time no one can out rap no will battle him.
His father?

He won a grammy for this album too bro
No no no no you were right with your first statement saying he's the best of all time it's ok you can say it.
I think you should follow this up with "Going Through Changes" featuring Ozzy vocal.
The conversion is real! I'm glad you found the light.. Em is King
trust your intuition... he's #1
One of the biggest songs of Em, brings me memory of when I was in high school 2014, it was one of my favorite songs

All grown up. I love this so much. He's fought hard for EVERYTHING and has come out shining!
"I solemnly swear to treat this roof like my daughters and raise it, you couldn't lift a single shingle on it.." 💙
what a powerful song right there!
Remember when you first started reacted to Em and love seeing you realize he is the 🐐
Finding out life gets hard only proves how well your parents were able to protect you. Props to yo father for that.
Eminem is make statement for lots of people who have drug or alcohol issues to get help for themselves and how they can build their relationship or help people with same experience in society. This song is definitely make me understand people who have problems and need support for metal health care
Ooooh you said it!!! He the best! 🤩
When I was in school I listened to this song, not afraid, it was my alarm music. I didnt knew Eminem back then.
You made me cry. It was beautiful
Remember being 12 and hearing something angelic on the TV and rushed down to see what it was and that's how I found out about Eminem
My first time hearing this song :O I love your Eminem reactions!!
You have to react to “Best friend” by Yelawolf ft Eminem. Best Eminem verse ever
"You lied through your teeth
So Fuck your feelings(fillings)
Instead of getting Crowned
You're getting Cap'd"
This is a crazy good reaction video. Nice work.
"eminem been nasty with it"
i'm an old fart who's been listening to him for damn near 20 years and i can't think of a more perfecter way to word it
and yeah, Em drops bars like it's butter on blacktop, smooth and you can't really predict where it's going. LOL
Eminem- cold wind blows
One of his best songs ever
Super fire fire fire 🔥🔥🔥
Great reaction man check out till I callpase
Keep going!! As usual great reaction!
Great video, again!
It was a triple wrap=present wrap=finished rap=music style
Awesome amazing always rap God magic
Eminem has a crazy good back catalogue.
Hello from Russia! Excellent video! I'm your new subscriber!
HipHop/Rap/Grime/Drill has not been a particular color for a long time. From India to England to Russia to Brazil to New Zealand to Germany to Australia to Spain to EVERYWHERE around the world. Lets keep it real ✌🏽💫
I *love* this song 🎵
💚🤟💚 *always* & *forever* ⭐🧘♀️⭐
With the whole “instead of getting crowned you’re getting capped”… also could take it is as instead of them getting a crown , they get a cap like a baseball cap… then thinking they’re the king but not …
Do Eminem No Apologies or Eminem Groundhog Day plss
React to eminem deja vu
Idk if he ready for that yet
The crown/cap is a tripple because you are not a king with a crown on your head but a king with a cap on your head. 👌👌
Shout-out to Michel'le and Dee Barnes they got Beats By Dre in 1990
Its time to excercise these demons, ive got em doing jumpin jacks now. nice
This man has been through a lot and I mean alot
EM ❤
Trust me we are catching those bars most of us are probably here to see if you can catch them 😆
It's ok to think he's the best.
Easily one of my top favorite songs by Em.
This got me through a tuff time. I asked my son to put it on disk to listen in my car.
I heard you jojo. Best rapper. Lol 😂
TOP RAPPER
Yup
Man you gotta check out talking2 myself and 25 to life
Do eminem white america
Yes! I was waiting months for this!

He is a Legend 😊😊
Love the reactions... gotta do NO LOVE with lil Wayne!
Keep putting out the great content
💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽
Feelins’/fillings crowned, capped.
It’s ok even 50 says it’s hard for him to admit Eminem is the best rapper.
My favorite Em song.
5:37 "f your fillings. instead of getting crowned your getting capped." I remember hearing that was a diss to someone.
I red somewhere that that line was aimed towards Sug Knight and Diddy in reference to the East/West conflict from what he came out of. I could be wrong. ( It's possible 🤣) but it does carry Merit
Ok im very early... Yes!!! Lol... Dude i always love your reactions...
Eminem is the 2nd fastest rapper in the world
Killing it man, let’s hit some Weezy Wednesday’s too. I recommend exclusively looking at his mixtapes.
You missed one of the best bars in the song"haters can be like bees with no stingers and drop dead"
Legend
It’s ok. You can say he’s the best rapper. 😂😂. We already know.
