      It's rare to hear the "oo" sound rhymed like that too, and he does it a lot there. It's nothing like on this song but I've always loved the "im just a hooligan, who's used to usin hallucinogens" from 3 am. Otherwise, another favorite of mine is Ghostface on wu Gambinos for "oo"

      It's rare to hear internal to external 5 syllable rhyme schemes where it does take away from the message. That's why most lyrists will always give Em the nod. .and the reason why Royce said he preferred ems verse cause he stuck to the thene of being a Renegade

    Eminem’s emphasis of certain vowel sounds over long verses while keeping the rhythm and rhymes is so masterful. You can see it here where he emphasizes those U (“you”) sounds in the first verse then in the second switches to the A emphasis and then I emphasis before the short Uhh emphasis makes it so smooth.

    • @Yoloslides
      @Yoloslides 11 หลายเดือนก่อน +7

      because Jay pulls his verses right from his mind and experiences so they flow much more naturally. Eminem actually sits down and writes his rhymes line for line so they fit together the way they do. That's why his flow sounds much more linear with the "perfect" words, because he literally designs it that way. Jay's flow is more natural and the rhyme schemes are unorthodox with a much more natural delivery because he writes in his head and rehearses on the spot by mumbling. What takes the average rapper 20-30 min to write, Jay can think up in 5-10. Combine that with the references, the double and triple entendres AND the fact that he's talking about his real life and true events, you realize he's an alien. That's a lot harder to do whereas Em can say wild stuff like "Go to war with the Mormons" and everyone goes crazy lol.

    10:09 - I'm so glad he said this. Its the reason I love hip hop, especially the kind with storytelling and wordplay. It makes me think more about what's being performed in a way that other genres can't. And the comment on the connecting with the artists world is 100% true. I'm a 30 something white male from middle class suburban England, who grew up in a tiny village.

    I give Jay the win on this one because I really relate to it especially his second verse at the time I was 14 hustling helping my mom with the bills and I felt like I wasn’t the only one going through it but if someone says em got him I won’t argue it

The conversation is important esp since your dad is being introduced to this. I love Jay. He's the Goat and my favorite. Great song choice. Def do Reasonable Doubt at some point. Also try and get a Midwest Nelly song in there. Introduce him to that style. Just a thought. Be safe. God bless

    The best way I could describe this song is Jay Z had a very offbeat choppy flow but was able to make it sound good and Eminem had a very smooth flow where his words just flowed together so effortlessly and they both came together to make one of the best rap songs of all time

    I like how you can appreciate the stark difference between the artists rap flows over this track. That being said, when this song dropped the consensus was that Eminem overshadowed Jay-Z and even Nas was quick to point it out on Ether. Rap is so competitive, especially among Juggernauts like Em and Jay, that even when they rap together they’re still trying to outshine each other because they know the the fans are judging.

    Second. I was 20 when this song came out. Words can't describe the impact it had. These are two of the best, doing what they do best. They were both at the very top when this song came out.
    There was a lot of discussion about who had the better verse (still to this day). But this song is not meant to compare the two artists. They both were incredible in thier own unique way. It's just such an amazing song by a couple of the best rappers to ever do it.

    Eminem Produced the Beat and his Lyrics Before Jay-Z bought it, which is crazy when u Think bout it that it was already Done Eminem did mix after Jay-Z put his Verse on it
    "Renegade" was originally recorded by Bad Meets Evil, a hip hop duo with Eminem and Royce da 5'9"
    Eminem did not have physical access to the reel it was recorded on at the time. Knowing Jay-Z was working to a short deadline, Eminem decided to offer him "Renegade" instead. After Royce da 5'9" granted his approval, Jay-Z recorded his own vocals in place of Royce's and sent them back to Eminem, who mixed them together into the final version of the song.
    So i think it is Crazy that Eminem went off and is mostly overlooked on this Track, just thinking about that he "did" not change anything to out perform Jay, he demolisched him.
