Eminem has huge respect for Joyner Lucas, he even said it himself that he should have won a Grammy for "I'm Not Racist". For an artist as big as Eminem in the rap game, giving that respect to Joyner is a big deal, and I can understand that. Joyner is a true lyricist and amazing rapper. I'm glad Eminem gives him the respect he deserves.
@Theo Freres Joyner debuted in 2007 but he has the attitude and talent of OG rappers like Eminem~ I'm sure Joyner said that Eminem is his biggest influence I can't remember but he is like the Eminem of the newer generation. He's is on the level of Em and even Royce no joke.
@@nickwright6340 I'll accept anything you say, after you can realize his true lyricism on Evolution. Go listen to TheThirdErnest he'll break down the bars for your whiny ass.
@@chriswade9616 spanish and french are practically the same language and they're nothing alike depending om what you compare it to. The value for "really close" isn't set so you're both wrong and I'm right.
One thing you might have missed is when Em starts rapping fast the "copycats" are blown into the air because they are not able to follow or copy that.. when Em starts going slower again they come back to the ground
When all the copy cats go up in the air. It’s when Eminem starts doing something they can’t copy. That’s why they are not following everything he does anymore.
@@LiamKOP I know what you are saying. This verse gets overlooked by many fans who think Em just rapped fast on a hot beat. No, Eminem had a crazy rhyme scheme while straight baring and punching, throwing great wordplay and flowing masterfully. Not to mention that he was mirroring Joyner's story in first few lines, and picked up with his side of the story and straight murdered the beat after.
@@LiamKOP I mean I wouldn't say washed but Em had the better verse for sure. One of his best flows in a while! Showed us he can even destroy a Trap beat 👌🏼🔥
No clue how your videos don’t have 1mil+ views…best reaction videos on the tube. Your breakdowns are always intelligent, insightful, highly technical, and extremely thorough! Nevermind…makes sense now! Keep doing your thing bro. Best in the business no doubt.
Wanna know why knox doesn't have a mil views? He actually takes the time to break it down, when most the recent generations don't even have the patience to read an article 💯😅
The video is basically talking about the rap game as a whole. The destruction represents just how broken the rap game is now, filled with these mediocre new rappers, and the destruction of the old hip hop, and Eminem and Joyner are the only ones that can save it. The dudes with the red eyes represent the rappers who are just following the old rappers and mimicking them, but they know they will never be like them in terms of lyricism and skill.
@@mateonelson3862 Rap game is not broken for me, because there are some good new gen rappers, but I'm an older rap fan myself, so OGs like Eminem and Royce, for example (both are my favourite rappers btw) are what give the rap game life to this day.
@@mateonelson3862 if we talk about the fact between GOOD and BAD Rap nowadays there is more bad than good. Idgaf if you wanna call me a oldhead. I think all those you mentioned are dope but we need more of those and less BULLSHIT "lyricists" like Tekashi and Trippie Redds and all these Future and Young Thug clones. Plain and simple as that. Yes don't get me wrong I enjoy a few of these new turn up dudes who don't sound like they got a dick in their mouth like Roddy Rich and hell I even tried giving King Von (RIP 🙏🏼) a chance before he passed and I was like yo these dudes spittin and they got a modern but different flow and sound and those are 2 off top but its not BAD to like both but honestly it is OVERCROWDING Rap and Hip Hop right now with more bad than GOOD. Just my 2 cents 👌🏼
@@mateonelson3862 Exactly! Thats why I say I feel there should at least be a balance and that BOTH Turn Up but Lyrical should both get the spotlight they deserve equally cuz again there are GOOD new gen dudes who sound dope and get me hype like Roddy.

But yeah I just wish people would stop calling legit lyricists "corny" and what not cuz hell I even stopped calling them mumble rappers I just call it Turn Up cuz thats what its for in general which isnt a BAD thing but yeab I respect your opinion G! 👌🏼💯
@@trickingwithjordan1708 how is that a stretch? 😹 that one line shouts out the featured artist and also an artist that has to do something with the rest of the song.

Em also shouted out Kendrick in that bar. "It's inside my DNA" He also shouts him out in the kamikaze song. Absolutely amazing breakdown. I missed that 12 days of Christmas bar my 1st FEW times thru. Didn't catch til u mentioned it. U are the absolute 🐐 of breakdowns.
The "I sound like a broken record everytime I break a record" is one of my favorite Em bars ever. Cause 1) That's true 2) the wordplay and 3) How he says it while he raps fast as fuck.
i like how when em goes off the copy cats blow into the sky and can no longer do what he is doing and only come back down when em slows the rap back down. sick

There are reactors that are great at catching hidden meanings like metaphors and double/triple entendres, and there are reactors that are great at analyzing the flows and rhyme schemes.

Clowns-that-are-co-ming-up Ounce-of-a-mo-ther-fuck I got a couple of mansions/mentions, still I don’t have any manors/manners The fast part is full of multi syllable rhymes Three-hun-dred-mill-i-gram Be-ing-a-vill-ain-a-gain I wrote/rode till the wheels fall off I’m working tirelessly aye It’s insane to me how he can rhyme like 5-6 multi syllable rhymes as have them actually make sense with the other and also doing it at that speed with doubles and triples and his flow and cadence. Haters: “But but Eminem just raps fast.”
@@mateonelson3862 i got no issue with that. Its when they go on to say "this is trash" just because they don't like the style that I start having problems.
@@mateonelson3862 that argument could not be made no. Em pronounces every syllable of the words he says even when rapping fast. If you cut the fast parts into sections and listen to them separately you’re able to understand every word if they’re in your vocabulary
"Kids these days, they dont care, as long as the song bangs they're happy." Facts! My brother just asked me a couple days ago, do I pay more attention to lyricism and the delivery and/or performance OR do I pay more attention to the music and the beat? I said..."um, D. All of the above. don't you?"🤯 I didnt realize there was any other way to listen to music!😆😆 He said he pays more attention to the music....which actually makes SOOO much sense, he plays guitar. I like to write...used to write a lot more when I was younger. I also like to sing....by myself....in my car...or the shower.... 😆 Always been way too shy to sing in front of anybody. My kids, my brother and my sister are the only people who've heard me actually sing.😋❤ Anyways.... Just found you last night... been listening to your music...loving it! Got into these reaction videos bc I saw a few that I actually hadn't heard yet. Keep doing what you do and keep your hustle up bruh! 😘
Great reaction bro! Thanks for the break down. One thing I think can be pulled from the video is if you notice the "copy cats" were doing everything that Em was doing but when he started rapping fast they were in the air and couldn't mimic him. When he return to the slow cadence the "copy cats" came back to the ground and started moving like him again. I think symbolizing that the industry can copy some of EM's style but there's a level to EM todays hip hop cant copy. I don't know. I could be reaching but that's what I pulled from it.
I came back to this reaction and I literally just caught that. I was scrolling thru the comments to see if someone mentioned it. Kudos to you, my guy. It's definitely not a reach! I'm shocked Knox didn't catch that as well.
Rappers like Joyner and NF are damn underrated and reactors like Knox are soo damn underrated I mean if I might reiterate he breaks every bars and every eminent thing he's just the best and perfect reactor I've ever witnessed bruh please keep up the great work ..much love ❤️❤️
Nah, Joyner did really good. While I love Em, in this track, they were both seamless. They work together really well, as well. I would say that this was basically them both producing two different raps that were opposite of each other, but flowed seamlessly together.
I just discovered knoxhill and was looking for Lucky You before and couldn't find it so I was excited to see this one! I never watched reaction videos before but ive been an em fan for 20 years! no life shaq was the first eminem reactor I saw and really liked the whole idea behind it but Knoxville breaks down on another level and ive always been about bars so keep doing what you're doing!
I love the way you break down the lyrics. I've listened to this song so many times and you just pointed out so much that I've missed. Even other UA-cam reactions often miss what you're able to pick up.
Hey Knox. I‘ve watched a lot of your eminem-reactions now, because I am from Germany so my English is‘nt that good to catch many of his lines.. I mean how should I? He is a lyrical monster and even people that are speaking english did‘nt catch everything. But here it comes to my appreciation of you.. you doing such a Good Job Breaking down the lyrics that Even i am able to understand a hole lot of them. I am watching your reactions and sitting at home like „god damn, I knew em is a genius, but SUCH a genius?“ and that’s just because you explain the lyrics that well. I don’t know if you gonna see this but if you see : Great Job
I haven't seen a single reactor catch the other "I got a couple of mansions" reference. Joyner had a song called Mansion where he asks "What I gotta do to go and buy me a mansion?" and Em is obviously saying he already has two keeping with the theme of Joyner is in one place and Em is in another.
Knox, you missed a bar my dude. 'I got a couple of mansions (mentions), still I don't have any manners (manors)'. Em is just not human bruh, he's from outer space. Much love from Malaysia.
Yo, im not English native and dont live in USA so im superglad to have found your channel so I can understand the bars and the references. Its much more enjoyable this way. Thank you man!
Yo bro, you're the best rapper who breaks down every single line of each song you react to! Love you bro! Also, can you please react to more Kamikaze songs, especially The Ringer, Greatest & Fall because I feel that I can learn more about them when you break them down! 💯
Why I appreciate breakdown reactors of your caliber so much - - - I knew I liked the sound of Em's music. I even liked the lyrics. I was a fan. Great, right? Pffft I find Knox, Ernie, and Stevie and it's like my eyes and ears have been opened for the first time in my life. I have spent a lifetime thinking I appreciated and understood the music I listened to. Man! I had no idea WHYYYY it sounded so good. The internal rhyming and the syllabic rhythms, the different flows, the pockets found in beats... AND THEN the damn double, triple, quadruple meanings behind words and entire sentences, and schemes, and pauses and, and, and .... So, like I was saying, THANK YOU. I found you when you were saying you were reacting to some music as something different for a week or so. And you kept reacting and I kept showing up to pay attention. ♥
Excellent break-down and interesting video. You helped me discover even more word-play and connections. Eminem never seizes to impress. Incredible. Dope track, loving it.
*The one line Eminem says in his verse that is very underrated & criminally overlooked by every person on UA-cam that reviewed this track is the simple line when Em says "They Have The Inability To Pen Humility". I know it's nothing that groundbreaking but the meaning with Em's wordplay is top tier.*
Another great reaction! I’ve grown a new appreciation for some of the songs.. I like that you’re informative without being negative. U really appreciate the crafts being an artist yourself.
Knox is one of the smartest guys I listen to when reviewing songs, just lessen the exaggerated reaction when noticing bars, too much face. I love your work.
“I’ve gotta a couple mansions, still I don’t have any manners...” “Mansions” and “manors” - synonyms He meant “manners”, but it’s a double. A manor is a big gaudy house.
Could be, but broken records( cd,tracks) keep playing over and over due to some damage on it - so when he breaks a record that song is played over and over bc people like it.
Thanks Knox for these breakdowns.I mean you makes us hear what we don't normally hear. Best reaction channel on the tube. I use your breakdowns to up my writing as much as i can so respect. In your Voice you have been knox certified 😂😂😂
I love coming to you for eminem reactions, i'm his age and have been listening since to beginning but even I can't dissect everything, you do it perfectly
@26:45 was what had happened to me. I was not into raps but once when going through the lyrics of Till I Collapse I heard the name Andre's name being dropped and first I thought it was a shout out to Dre but then after looking it up I got hooked to Old School rap and then the whole genre.
The destructed site was a symbol of how bad the hip-hop genre had became after the Mumble Rap growth. Eminem coming out of the cave was the sign of the end of the era, and it actually did.
Also, at the end Em said, "Levels to this shit I got an elevator" On Relapse, he had a song called "Elevator" where he not only centers it around him being elevated from the rest of rap, but also him flaunting himself being so rich he has an elevator in his house, where in the track he takes you to his basement. Amazing triple from that one line, referencing Relapse, (Another "Flopped" album before recent years) his wealth, and his own rap skill. Wanted to make this comment for a long time, thanks for the amazing content, keep it up. You, Eminem, Joyner, Royce, KXNG Crooked, and dozens of other lyricists have given me the inspiration to start my rap career even though I'm 14. Now i make my own, if slightly cheap, beats to my own music, do freestyles in class for my friends, and rapping has made myself more confident, as I can express myself through my music, and also get my own inner thoughts onto the page, and also keep my dreams of being an MC alive. Thank you.
Mad props to KnoxHill for studying and respecting the game, picking up on everything. Breakin' it down like a true student of the game and respectful AF. I would never catch half the shit if it wasn't for you pointing it out. @13:21 GOD DAMN, that is lyrical skill that only Em can match. Lyricism 4 ever. Then OMFG, EM swag in the tunnel, HOLY SHIT, fierce as FUCK. Then, "NO SHIT" - aaaannnnd back to what we do best. Eminem is so fast and mentions soooo many important things, it takes 3-4 listens to even catch up.
@KnoxHill Em's a lefty. 34:32 " I write with the left, same hand I hold the mic with, As I fight to the death, 'till my last breath" - Phenomenal (Eminem)
I learn so much from you every time you react. I listen to Eminem’s music all the time but I never realized how much I missed when you do your reactions. You’re the best!!
My favorite part of the whole vid is when Em snaps after the gunshot and all the "copy cats" are blown up and elevated and they cannot copy what he brings. It's like he's so out there that you'd have to be off this planet to try and they literally can't lol
@KnoxHill wow i went back a few years to watch some of your older stuff, i cant believe this videeo iis only 3 years ago, you're absolutely adorable , and look and sound so cufe and so young hehe. It's been a few hard years that have added some extra years on us all. With all you have been through with your Grandpa, your wife's illness, the overdose of your cousin, and the tragedy of your wife's mothe. My heart goes out to you all. You're incredible at what you do, both rapping, and content for your channel. I hole soon the storm lifts and we see this sparkle in your eyes again soon. Keep positive Knox ur oneof a kind. ❤❤❤❤
I seen a couple of your reactions and subscribed today. Went down a 4 hour Knox Hill rabbit hole. (Watched so long my xbox and tv shut off for being inactive) Love your breakdowns. It's amazing when you catch words and meanings that I have missed after listening to the songs a few dozen times at least. Keep up the great work!

Thank you man honestly, i don't understand song's meaning fully but your description is really understandable and worthy to listen keep going
Clowns-that-are-co-ming-up
Ounce-of-a-mo-ther-fuck
I got a couple of mansions/mentions, still I don’t have any manors/manners
The fast part is full of multi syllable rhymes
Three-hun-dred-mill-i-gram
Be-ing-a-vill-ain-a-gain
I wrote/rode till the wheels fall off I’m working tirelessly aye
It’s insane to me how he can rhyme like 5-6 multi syllable rhymes as have them actually make sense with the other and also doing it at that speed with doubles and triples and his flow and cadence.
Haters: “But but Eminem just raps fast.”
👌👌👌👌
@@mateonelson3862 i got no issue with that. Its when they go on to say "this is trash" just because they don't like the style that I start having problems.
@@mateonelson3862 i like some trap but you're right, its not for me usually. I hope we can all agree though that mumble rap needs to die off.
@@mateonelson3862 lol this is true 😆. And you're right, I don't see the lils nearly as much as I did a couple years ago
@@mateonelson3862 that argument could not be made no. Em pronounces every syllable of the words he says even when rapping fast. If you cut the fast parts into sections and listen to them separately you’re able to understand every word if they’re in your vocabulary
I envy people who have never listened to Eminem then they stumble into this genius rap. Can't be beaten
The Ringer (by Em) would be phenomenal to see you break down..
"Kids these days, they dont care, as long as the song bangs they're happy." Facts! My brother just asked me a couple days ago, do I pay more attention to lyricism and the delivery and/or performance OR do I pay more attention to the music and the beat? I said..."um, D. All of the above. don't you?"🤯 I didnt realize there was any other way to listen to music!😆😆 He said he pays more attention to the music....which actually makes SOOO much sense, he plays guitar. I like to write...used to write a lot more when I was younger. I also like to sing....by myself....in my car...or the shower.... 😆 Always been way too shy to sing in front of anybody. My kids, my brother and my sister are the only people who've heard me actually sing.😋❤ Anyways.... Just found you last night... been listening to your music...loving it! Got into these reaction videos bc I saw a few that I actually hadn't heard yet. Keep doing what you do and keep your hustle up bruh! 😘
Did u see the whole video
Great reaction bro! Thanks for the break down. One thing I think can be pulled from the video is if you notice the "copy cats" were doing everything that Em was doing but when he started rapping fast they were in the air and couldn't mimic him. When he return to the slow cadence the "copy cats" came back to the ground and started moving like him again. I think symbolizing that the industry can copy some of EM's style but there's a level to EM todays hip hop cant copy. I don't know. I could be reaching but that's what I pulled from it.
I came back to this reaction and I literally just caught that. I was scrolling thru the comments to see if someone mentioned it. Kudos to you, my guy. It's definitely not a reach! I'm shocked Knox didn't catch that as well.
@@prestonmcclerren6765 thanks bro! I appreciate that …I love watching videos from people like Em…there is always a double meaning 🍻
Rappers like Joyner and NF are damn underrated and reactors like Knox are soo damn underrated I mean if I might reiterate he breaks every bars and every eminent thing he's just the best and perfect reactor I've ever witnessed bruh please keep up the great work ..much love ❤️❤️
To be fair, Joyner is the feature on this track. It's Eminem's track. Lol. Great reaction and they both killed it.
Nah, Joyner did really good. While I love Em, in this track, they were both seamless. They work together really well, as well. I would say that this was basically them both producing two different raps that were opposite of each other, but flowed seamlessly together.
I just discovered knoxhill and was looking for Lucky You before and couldn't find it so I was excited to see this one! I never watched reaction videos before but ive been an em fan for 20 years! no life shaq was the first eminem reactor I saw and really liked the whole idea behind it but Knoxville breaks down on another level and ive always been about bars so keep doing what you're doing!
Dude your breakdowns are epic, you and the third ernest, my 2 fav reacters right now
One of my favorite bars ever is that "I sound like a broken record everytime I break a record" 🔥🔥🔥
I love the way you break down the lyrics. I've listened to this song so many times and you just pointed out so much that I've missed.
Even other UA-cam reactions often miss what you're able to pick up.
Hey Knox. I‘ve watched a lot of your eminem-reactions now, because I am from Germany so my English is‘nt that good to catch many of his lines.. I mean how should I? He is a lyrical monster and even people that are speaking english did‘nt catch everything. But here it comes to my appreciation of you.. you doing such a Good Job Breaking down the lyrics that Even i am able to understand a hole lot of them. I am watching your reactions and sitting at home like „god damn, I knew em is a genius, but SUCH a genius?“ and that’s just because you explain the lyrics that well. I don’t know if you gonna see this but if you see : Great Job
Fühl ich.
Peace from Germany. Eminem ist einfach ein Phänomen. Living legend!
Watching Knox Hill break down these videos makes me appreciate rap a lot more. Thank you and keep up the good work on this channel.
❤me too
I can't get over how good your reactions are. I never catch it all. I can't ever decide if I should play cod or watch reactions at night. Haha
I haven't seen a single reactor catch the other "I got a couple of mansions" reference. Joyner had a song called Mansion where he asks "What I gotta do to go and buy me a mansion?" and Em is obviously saying he already has two keeping with the theme of Joyner is in one place and Em is in another.
He's got a couple of mansions, but no manors/manners. I love the word play on the second part too.
Knox, you missed a bar my dude. 'I got a couple of mansions (mentions), still I don't have any manners (manors)'. Em is just not human bruh, he's from outer space. Much love from Malaysia.
Yoo malaysiaaa
And that was easiest one to catch…
I’m late but nobody caught that bar. Nobody. I saw like 14 reactors and nobody.
@@CarlosRivera-jq8di myb they don’t mention that bcs its so fucking obvius
I don’t think Americans use the word Manor much.
imagine getting your comment liked by Knox hill 😔
Would never happen
@@KnoxHill a double huh? I see what you did there 🙌🏽
Yo, im not English native and dont live in USA so im superglad to have found your channel so I can understand the bars and the references. Its much more enjoyable this way. Thank you man!
US and the Philippines have no difference. These days only few people appreciate lyricist and most are on to mumble shit.
Support from 🇵🇭💪🏻❤
FINALLY THIS TRACK. This is my fav track off of Kamikaze and for good reason~
Great breakdown Knox. 1 of my favorite Em songs and Joyner did his thing 🔥
Yo bro, you're the best rapper who breaks down every single line of each song you react to! Love you bro! Also, can you please react to more Kamikaze songs, especially The Ringer, Greatest & Fall because I feel that I can learn more about them when you break them down! 💯
I really like how yu breakdown everything from English to Spanish it’s amazing how your mind works
Why I appreciate breakdown reactors of your caliber so much - - -
I knew I liked the sound of Em's music. I even liked the lyrics. I was a fan. Great, right? Pffft
I find Knox, Ernie, and Stevie and it's like my eyes and ears have been opened for the first time in my life. I have spent a lifetime thinking I appreciated and understood the music I listened to. Man! I had no idea WHYYYY it sounded so good. The internal rhyming and the syllabic rhythms, the different flows, the pockets found in beats... AND THEN the damn double, triple, quadruple meanings behind words and entire sentences, and schemes, and pauses and, and, and ....
So, like I was saying, THANK YOU. I found you when you were saying you were reacting to some music as something different for a week or so. And you kept reacting and I kept showing up to pay attention. ♥
Lucky you.... nah lucky us that we get you breaking this down 👌👌💪🤣
Excellent break-down and interesting video. You helped me discover even more word-play and connections. Eminem never seizes to impress. Incredible. Dope track, loving it.
*The one line Eminem says in his verse that is very underrated & criminally overlooked by every person on UA-cam that reviewed this track is the simple line when Em says "They Have The Inability To Pen Humility". I know it's nothing that groundbreaking but the meaning with Em's wordplay is top tier.*
That is dope af
Another great reaction! I’ve grown a new appreciation for some of the songs.. I like that you’re informative without being negative. U really appreciate the crafts being an artist yourself.
Knox is one of the smartest guys I listen to when reviewing songs, just lessen the exaggerated reaction when noticing bars, too much face. I love your work.
“I’ve gotta a couple mansions, still I don’t have any manners...”
“Mansions” and “manors” - synonyms
He meant “manners”, but it’s a double. A manor is a big gaudy house.
I thought this line was also directed at NF... his 1st album was mansion... and also the manners reference, since nf doesnt curse.
@@vesarautamaki523 shook
you r one of the best reactors on platform man you,re channels gonna blow up big time
Yooo that intro song was low-key fire 🔥
Idk but I also want to find out
I got the album from Knox hill and it’s pretty fire
Bro..I watch a lot of your videos..this is sick. This is honestly the best breakdown I’ve ever seen on UA-cam. Amazing dude. Keep up the good work.
Did em say “i sound like a broken record every time I break a record” because he already owns the records but he keeps breaking them?
Could be, but broken records( cd,tracks) keep playing over and over due to some damage on it - so when he breaks a record that song is played over and over bc people like it.
He saying everytime I break a record as on all the records he has broken like most rap records sold, most words a minute.
eminem made me learn english so i can know what he is talking about -G O A T-
same here (:
No that's not right you should be native for catching all bars !!!!
@@sofialyric he didn't say he catches all the bars.
Same here I'm from Brazil and we speak Portuguese
As many times as I've heard this I didn't realize he shouted out Masta Ace. One of my favs. The INC Ride is classic af. I'm 42 btw lol..
Thanks Knox for these breakdowns.I mean you makes us hear what we don't normally hear. Best reaction channel on the tube. I use your breakdowns to up my writing as much as i can so respect. In your Voice you have been knox certified 😂😂😂
I love coming to you for eminem reactions, i'm his age and have been listening since to beginning but even I can't dissect everything, you do it perfectly
@26:45 was what had happened to me. I was not into raps but once when going through the lyrics of Till I Collapse I heard the name Andre's name being dropped and first I thought it was a shout out to Dre but then after looking it up I got hooked to Old School rap and then the whole genre.
"I got a couple of mansions, still I don't have any manners (manors)"
i still think manners fits what he said though why would he say manors???? when he totally meant manners????
@@markBalentine123567 it fits both. It's just that a manor is another sort of mansion type house
@@YG2083 ahh okay but i could of swore i heard manners :)
@@markBalentine123567 both words fit. It's just a matter of how you think of the sentence. Eminem always has lines like theses. It's crazy
@@YG2083 oh yeah agree here he does :)
Bruh you need more recognition... this the best breakdown I've watched till now
The destructed site was a symbol of how bad the hip-hop genre had became after the Mumble Rap growth. Eminem coming out of the cave was the sign of the end of the era, and it actually did.
Also, at the end Em said, "Levels to this shit I got an elevator" On Relapse, he had a song called "Elevator" where he not only centers it around him being elevated from the rest of rap, but also him flaunting himself being so rich he has an elevator in his house, where in the track he takes you to his basement. Amazing triple from that one line, referencing Relapse, (Another "Flopped" album before recent years) his wealth, and his own rap skill. Wanted to make this comment for a long time, thanks for the amazing content, keep it up. You, Eminem, Joyner, Royce, KXNG Crooked, and dozens of other lyricists have given me the inspiration to start my rap career even though I'm 14. Now i make my own, if slightly cheap, beats to my own music, do freestyles in class for my friends, and rapping has made myself more confident, as I can express myself through my music, and also get my own inner thoughts onto the page, and also keep my dreams of being an MC alive.
Thank you.
16:13 Dichotomy... Nice word, lol. love it..
Knox be dropping the thesaurus on his followers.
Great break down my guy
Man you’re a part of the lyricists keeping lyrical rap alive too not just the most famous ones and you’re pretty dang good at it too #reptheknox
I love how he shouts out Kendrick Lamar! "I've got loyalty inside my DNA." Em played on that toward the end!
Knox is a genius. How can you catch all of the lyrics that Joyner and Em said?😂
How do you not have 1M+ subscribers already? I can’t take my eyes off your channel!
Mad props to KnoxHill for studying and respecting the game, picking up on everything. Breakin' it down like a true student of the game and respectful AF. I would never catch half the shit if it wasn't for you pointing it out. @13:21 GOD DAMN, that is lyrical skill that only Em can match. Lyricism 4 ever. Then OMFG, EM swag in the tunnel, HOLY SHIT, fierce as FUCK. Then, "NO SHIT" - aaaannnnd back to what we do best. Eminem is so fast and mentions soooo many important things, it takes 3-4 listens to even catch up.
I'm a MASSIVE Stephen King nerd, so, I LOVE the Cujo reference. Also, I was raised in San Diego, so, the Spanish parts of this song are fantastic too.
Me too to both funny
T.I ft eminem "All she wrote". There should be plenty more people in these comments who agree.
Em washed T.I
The BEST bar breaker when it comes to em! Hands down! I think I have a crush on this mans IQ!!
@KnoxHill Em's a lefty. 34:32
" I write with the left, same hand I hold the mic with,

Royce: Cocaine
Tabernacle is so good.
@@loristnorton3723 Yessir
I learn so much from you every time you react. I listen to Eminem’s music all the time but I never realized how much I missed when you do your reactions. You’re the best!!
My favorite part of the whole vid is when Em snaps after the gunshot and all the "copy cats" are blown up and elevated and they cannot copy what he brings. It's like he's so out there that you'd have to be off this planet to try and they literally can't lol
@KnoxHill wow i went back a few years to watch some of your older stuff, i cant believe this videeo iis only 3 years ago, you're absolutely adorable , and look and sound so cufe and so young hehe. It's been a few hard years that have added some extra years on us all. With all you have been through with your Grandpa, your wife's illness, the overdose of your cousin, and the tragedy of your wife's mothe. My heart goes out to you all. You're incredible at what you do, both rapping, and content for your channel.
I hole soon the storm lifts and we see this sparkle in your eyes again soon.
Keep positive Knox ur oneof a kind. ❤❤❤❤
I seen a couple of your reactions and subscribed today. Went down a 4 hour Knox Hill rabbit hole. (Watched so long my xbox and tv shut off for being inactive) Love your breakdowns. It's amazing when you catch words and meanings that I have missed after listening to the songs a few dozen times at least. Keep up the great work!
I love to be the quick on the notification
This is actually a club banger!! Especially the instrumental!!
