      Yeah I address this in my text dump. There's a lot of references to his "beef" with Insane Clown Posse who gave him a very dumb "diss" name which he destroys in one line. But, not to speak for Metal Biker Dude, but I think it wasn't the lyrics (as he compliments them) but rather the lack of a bass line & the use of a guitar (which he reaches for after).

      *Encore* was by far his worst album, but it’s still an above-average rap album.

Fortunately for both examples, they’ve both had better albums since.

I think seein this man react in such an open minded, and geniune way to everything from instrument’s, and quality of production all the way down to lyric’s, and delivery made this video so nostalgic, and impactful for me. also I usually don’t like the extra commentary that people have in their reaction video’s, but this guy isn’t tryna be someone he’s not in order to gain like’s, and/or subscriber’s, so not only did I not mind his commentary, I actually thought it was really good, and informative. liked how he was able to explain a bit about who he was, and his background by bein able to geniunely relate to certain thing’s in some of the song’s, and segway from those certain part’s into his commentary so smoothly by only talkin about thing’s that related to those part’s... because everything w this man seemed so natural, and never forced I subscribed to his channel. awesome guy w a genuinely awesome reaction video... 💯💯💯.

    The last song is D12, which is Eminems band, they are his closest friends. It is rather important to understand D12, if you want to understand Slim Shady.
    D12 was at first basically just a pact between them that the first person who gets famous, makes all the others famous too, it was Proofs (Eminems best friend since high school, he died 2006 after being shot in the head) idea to found the group, he also had the idea that all of the 6 members should have 2 personalities, therefore D12.
    He had also the idea that they should say things that would be over the limit and just saying whatever they want, but also funny things, like saying to fuck his own mom and having a new brother and son at the same time, it was already Bizarres (the other guy on the song Amityville) style so he inspired the others in the group and fundamentally is responsible for this famous style of Slim Shady, it is also probably why you thought that Bizarre is the counterpart to Eminem, which is actually very true, but Bizarre is still the most crazy one in the group, to name all members and the second personality:
    Eminem - Slim Shady
    Proof - Derty Harry
    Bizarre - Red Head
    Kon Artist - Mr Porter
    Kuniva - Rondell Beene
    Swift - Swifty McVay
    I recommend the song "My Band" from them, especially the music video, which is very funny.
    His first album "Infinite" has absolutely no Slim Shady influence and therefore are the song themes completely different, because it was before they came up with this idea, so even though the album was incredible good, people were not buying it because it was not unique and too similiar to other rappers at that time, it only sold like 1000 copies, even though the album is incredible, especially in terms of rhymes, but that´s basically it, besides that it was indeed not unique, but the title song "Infinite" is in my personally opinion one of the best songs he ever did.
    I think to understand Eminems music you have to understand his story, which is in rap music often the case, because of the heavy focus on the lyrics. If you really want to know more about Eminem, I recommend his book "The Way I Am", which is like his songs very well written, I think most of things I wrote are also written in the book.

    Also, those moments when eminem's word play and humor make you want to pause the song and let it sink in.. he has never lost that, either. I think (at least to me) that is part of his longevity. Listening to any of his releases take me back to being a kid and being transfixed by his wordplay, delivery and humor

    I just spent two hours watching a react vid and I don’t hate myself for doing it. Great balance of play and pause...and when you did pause, I was interested every time. Already liked and subscribed, but I gotta say that you have a talent for this. Most react vids are garbage, but you killed it IMO. As to suggestions, I like Snoop, but never listened to any of his albums. Dre on the other hand...Dr. Dre - The Chonic, has always been one of my favorite albums. The kind of album that you listen front to back and enjoy it all. Also very curious to see what you think of Macklemore’s album “The Heist”, because that’s another that I enjoyed top to bottom.

    “I’m alive because of him”…love that about your Dad♥️
    I’ve adored EMINEM since his inception.
    I am a 53 year old white lady from
    Stone Mountian, Georgia. I been knowin’ bout EM’s genius for a long time…glad you finally made it to the party(3 years ago).
    When he said “little Eric falling off the terrace…parents”, reminded me of Eric Clapton’s son, he fell out of a window…the name coincidence gives me shivers.
    You only have to hear Slim Shady once and you’ll remember it.
    In addition to his daughter Hailiey(with Kim), he also adopted and raised two children out of bad situations.
    I’m currently chair dancing. Just relinquish your body to the sound, it will know what to do.
    My Mom told me, when I cuss, she doesn’t hear anything I say after.
    She said it’s lazy and makes me sound uneducated.
    My Dad taught me to cuss by yelling at Atlanta traffic, political talking heads, and football.
    I got it honest and stopped it honest. I do not blaspheme God.
    If only I had a dollar for all the F’bombs you and EMINEM dropped in this video😁
    In my humble opinion, EM talks way to much about s#€kn’ D and other crotch related bars.
    LOVE ‘Freak on a Leash’ it’s been on my playlists since I had CD’s. Brian Welch wised up and got saved.
    Please listen to ‘Not Afraid’ from EMINEM 2010.
    And the highly entertaining Rap Devil (video) by Machine Gun Kelley dissing EMINEM
    and the retaliatory dis song
    Kill Shot by EMINEM 2018.
    Every year, I listen to the epic 8 Mile rap battles on TH-cam.
    January 2021-Snoop’s work wife is literally Martha Stewart.
    EMINEM is a top ten favorite but…
    The Beastie Boys are unmatched in this category, with albums
    Check Your Head and
    Paul’s Boutique. They are the best.
    Period.
    Forgive my lengthy comment, I was typing as you spoke.

      Eminem can relate to a 9 year old immigrant from Puerto Rico in Miami, to a 53 year old white lady like yourself in Atlanta, to a 25 year old black kid in Chicago, to a white teenager on a trailer park in Seattle, and that's why his music will stand the test of time. (or a 10 year old middle class English guy like I was in 2000)

    Glad to see such a positive reception to this album. That's the thing about Eminem - he transcends the genre and pulls in people from all walks of life. He's easy to relate to for anyone who's had a rough spot in life. He speaks to issues that everyone else seemed to shy away from, and he took the negative press and turned it into lyrical gold. This might be his best album of all time, when he was lyrical, hard-hitting, solid beats all around, and his trademark comedy thrown in on a couple tracks.
    Eminem is one of those superstars who comes along once a generation. Now he has matured, but he has kept his lyrical skills and while not everyone likes his new content, he's using his platform to speak on issues that matter to him. You can't help but respect the fact that he was a high school dropout who took his pain and made a better life for himself and his kids from it.

    Wrote a music history paper on this album. Arguably one of the most important albums in the history of hip hop and rap music. Without this album, rap music does not make it into the mainstream the way that it has in the last 20 years. Respect to Biggie, Pac,, Jay-Z, Cube, Nas, Busta Rhymes, the list goes on... but this album was a crossover that no one could have anticipated.

      @sjn6704 2 ปีที่แล้ว +10

      You're not wrong. Eminem dragged casual and white fans over to rap and hip hop. A whole generation of kids who otherwise wouldn't have listened to rap were suddenly the target market from 2000 onwards. It was a huge feat for a rap album to go more than 1 x Platinum in the 90s - All Eyez on Me went multi-platinum posthumously, The Chronic sold a few million, Biggie went 2 x Platinum, and they were anomalies for Hip Hop. Suddenly this white guy comes in and sells Nsync numbers eventually going Diamond (twice) with legit no-holds rap lifted from black rappers, and the other white and casual fans get into it. It really did open the door for rap to go mainstream when previously it had been second tier - 50 Cent, Kanye, Lil Wayne all go multi platinum in the 00s and its standard for hip hop albums to go at least Platinum, and its been THE main genre for the last 15 years.
      Its a shame that society needed a white guy to make this amazing genre seem accessible to the mainstream but oh well.

    It is great that you are picking up on eminem's rhyming. 90% of rappers after about the mid-90s use multi-syllable/slant rhyming. Even today there are a lot of rap fans (but not rappers) who don't know how to write multis or understand what they are. But every one hears them. Eminem was ahead of his time with his multi syllable rhymes and rhyme schemes/internal multis. I suggest looking into it, it will add a huge new dimension of appreciation from a writing stand point. Some stuff is waaay more complex than meets the eye. It's why if you are unlearned, reading something may appear to not rhyme but sound like it does when delivered.

    What I’d give to hear The Marshall Mathers LP again for the first time. You’re so lucky to have discovered it. One of the greatest hip hop albums ever made. A masterpiece.
    Found it funny that some of the tracks you liked the least are some of the greatest (Criminal, Marshall Mathers etc.)- they’re lyrical genius, true classics, truly 🔥. But you talked over all the bars. 😂🤣Also, without knowing the context, I would imagine they don’t hit the same way. Study up, then maybe give them another listen? It may illuminate the context and give you a greater understanding and perhaps a greater appreciation for what he’s spitting.
    I loved it when you paused and shared stories though. Just please listen intently when the track is playing?😉
    But your assessment of The Way I Am? YOU WERE DEAD CENTER ACCURATE ON THAT ONE. Happens to be My favorite Eminem track of all time (although my favorite album from him is Relapse- it’s a horrorcore masterpiece). Still as relevant, vicious and venomous as the day it dropped 22 years ago. And it always makes me happy when someone new discovers it for the first time.

    Paul is Paul Rosenberg, Eminem's longtime manager and attorney. Just recently he became CEO of Def Jam Records.
    Steve Berman is an executive for Interscope Records, which is the label that owns Aftermath (which is Dre's label). Steve is a cool guy. He's featured in that new 4-part HBO Documentary Series "The Defiant Ones" that timelines the careers and partnership of Jimmy Iovine and Dr. Dre (including their signing of Eminem).
    Also worth noting: around 53:25 he starts his verse, "I take 7 kids from Columbine, stand em all in line. Add an AK47, a revolver and 9" but even his explicit version of the album censored half of the line (thanks FCC)! Not many people have had their explicit versions of music censored, but Eminem is one of them.
    The other guy on "Bitch Please II" was Xzibit, and yes, he was the actor for the lunch truck rapper from 8 Mile! Good catch!
    Also, Ken Kaniff isn't a real person. Kenneth Kaniff from Connecticut is a reoccuring character Eminem has used in skits for many albums. Basically just some gay, weird, overly sexual creep.
    As far as a Dre album, he's got 3 solo albums. The Chronic is his debut solo, featuring a lot of Snoop Dogg. Total masterpiece. Really, any of his 3 albums would be a good pick. He's such a perfectionist that he only releases albums that are perfect in his eyes - so they're all equally impressive. But if you do The Chronic, you can basically count that as a Snoop album as well because he's on almost every song. But yes, Dre is tough to get on TH-cam. But, if you want a Snoop album anyways, Doggystyle is by far his best.
