#WhenImGone #WhenImGoneReaction #Eminem
That reaction freaking touched me, I've been watching you for a couple months now and I just want to say first congratulations on your twin babies, and let you know that you are a wonderful reactor who is always open and honest and I just enjoy watching you oh, so keep your grind up you have supporters and you will go far, thank you for your transparency.
Touched me harder than Michael Jackson.
Or R Kelly.
Couldn't have said it better myself.
What a great sincere reaction
There isn’t any better way to say this
My favorite part was when he said, uhhhh
Has he ever done rap god ?
If this touched you listen to Mockingbird by Em
💯💯💯
Spacebound too
YES. MOCKINGBIRD
yes he should do mockingbird. and it has to be the video. just saying just in case
I cried the first time I heard it!
With Em you started a journey that will not end.
YES!!!! AGREED!!!
Infinite haha
@@maxlvlnpcboss4812 first song, good joke
Think he means first em reaction vid
Still going strong
EM is one of the only artist that can have be hyped, pissed and crying in one Album.
That's NF on all his albums though...
@@ransfordflentjar5694 dont compare NF to Em 💀
@@Teyism Why?... Because he's not on the same level? Perhaps but I'd prefer NF over Eminem any day. That's my opinion though I don't really care about what anybody else has to say on the topic.
@@ransfordflentjar5694 i feel the same way, NF has a way for words man, incredible artist
@@ransfordflentjar5694 but he cant be compared to eminem
As a girl who grew up without her father, this song has hurt me since I was 7, I’m now 20.
Sorry doll, at 29 im still fucking pissed and its been 26 years.
@@samanthathick6724 huh
Feel you
May sound a bit too much but the gap of either a parent is sometimes better than living an entire life witnessing live in a toxic hellhole of seeing your family coming apart and the absolute way one can be a pos to your supposed married partner. Granted you'll never know if its true or not but if he wasn't willing to stay he wouldn't have made a great dad even if he did stayed seeing how he could bail like that.
Same 🥲
I’m a single father of two beautiful little girls I haven’t heard this in years it’s got me tearing up to bro god I can relate
Parker Branum God bless you sir
I hate Kids but this is also relatable on other Stuff but I love my parents
Parker Branum hope u and your family are doing great ! peace
Your a liar
@@shadyrecordsmusic *You're
One of EM's Best songs
Agreed
Yep
You can feel his emotions
Damn his ability to put Emotion in his voice
No other Rapper can make a Masterpiece like this
Heard of NF?
CaptainKill I love nf but personally I don’t feel like he’s on the skill level of Eminem, yet.
@@crucko4099 NF is great but he ain't no Rap God.
@@Michael-gt9se Yeah he's not a "Rap God" he doesn't need these people to bow to him.
And no I'm not comparing.
It's like Messi and Ronaldo everyone has their own opinion and favourite.
@@canadianguy8661 Em has been in the industry since 1988 though.
You got a heart man ... God bless your two babie girls ❤️
Thank you 🙏
The emotion hits me too, mother of four and a grandchild, who I nearly lost several times.
Wow, then this definitely runs deep with you. God bless you and your family 🙏 Thanks for sharing and supporting
Sorry but idk if I know you but could I know your first name?
This broke me to, also a Dad to my beautiful daughter.
Congrats bro
Knox hill can you react to 100kufis he went from 1k subs to 12k over night dude is straight bars ..please react to him
I’m not a musician, but I own a trucking/moving company and spent so many years on the road missing my kids grow up. Spent many nights back in the day drowning my sorrows to this track. The part were we saw the emotion flow over you is a familiar feeling. Now that the last of 5 kids are getting ready to graduate high school and start her own life I just hope they know the sacrifices I made to give them a good life. 😢
Well done I feel like people don't appreciate truckers enough no glory no spectacle but hard word to keep the world running so thank you
We stan truckers around here ❤
❤️
If you have a great partner who understands. The kids will know, understand and appreciate.
Hearing your emotion is so touching and you show how much we are as humans and no matter how big you get your still a human, father or whatever you are to the world we love you bud, keep being you, your awesome
Appreciate that. The words and support mean it all 🙏🙌
Love Eminem - remember when I lost my husband I started listening to Eminem and have no idea why but I found solace in his music!
Cause. it's made by a lyrical genius, harsh but funny, very honest and heartfelt.
Master storyteller.
Kathy, when I lost my brother, Eminem comforted me. I could relate to the anger, but stayed for the vulnerability. I think he's a genius and I don't say that lightly. I just get lost in his music.
Fame is overrated. Life Love and Family are so much more important in life!!!!!
Couldn’t have said it better myself ❤️
@@KnoxHill I have been a stay at home Dad for the last 18 years my youngest just turned 16 and both of my boys make me more happy then any amount of money sex or anything period.
I agree one hundred percent. Fame can actually make families grow apart and become unstable. Money and popularity are a curse. Once you have it, the chances of coming back are extremely low.
Eminem never did that for fame ..he did all that just cause of his love for hip hop...I mean he's rapping in his 50s just for us
@Garry G
He’s only 47...
When I’m gone and Mocking bird just automatically give me chills when i hear them. I used to listen to them a lot after my dad was killed in a plane crash.
Im sorry sure he’s at the better place watching you stay strong 💪 💪 God bless you!
This song resonates for a lot of people and that's the reason why I want this played at my funeral
Even I want this played at mine
This song ALWAYS makes me emotional. I went through a very bad period during my second deployment to Iraq and got to the point of self-harm, and this always reminds me of some of my thoughts during that time frame in my life... It ended up with a long struggle that required me to get help, then getting a divorce, then getting custody of my daughter, and finding my current wife, who literally helped to save my life without ever realizing it. This song is cathartic to me in that respect.
@Eric Stanger I survived and I ended up medically chaptered. I still suffer from mild PTSD and have issues with thunderstorms and loud fireworks, but I've been out for 11 years at this point.
Most of the extreme stressors for me were related to my ex-wife, honestly, because I was stuck staring at a road for 12+ hours a day, stuck with my thoughts about the fact that my life "back home" at the time was falling apart, but I survived it.
I love the part where he said “Daddy’s writing a song, this song ain’t gon’ write itself” As the song is writing itself. Someone pointed that out in a YT comment. I never really paid attention to that.
Did not get what u are saying; can u pls explain it
@@bitchnoi5539 look at the paper at 3:07. The lyrics are showing up on the paper without him writing it.
Bruh wtf I never noticed that; this really blew my mind; damn thanks for the info dude 🤯🤯🤯🤯
@@bitchnoi5539 No problem! I thought it was cool when I read a comment about it. Take care!
This song always had a spot for me even as a kid and didn’t rlly understand what I was listening too
I’m glad I’m not the only one who broke down crying on this song. Just found your channel. Love it and you’re an amazing rapper.
I’ve heard this song many times but I’m blown away by how it touched you my man because it touched my heart the same way. Wow man thank you so much you a real one man. I will be listening and thanks again 💯👍🙏
It was beautiful seeing your reaction. It was so touching. Not many guys would show such emotion to the world beautiful
Honestly I tried my best to keep it together. This song really resonated with me and I felt the emotion in the words and music. Thanks for supporting and appreciate those words! 🙏🙌
@@KnoxHill i do they touch my soul as well. Im a mom of 5 who has raised her kids on he own for 18 years until recently i was on my own so songs like these have tons of meaning to me
This man really told Eminem to "step up to the plate"
It is 2020, he has stepped up and took all the damn plates my man
Ben Taylor when? Time stamp?
@@gagemalm1163 3 weeks later but its at 0:46
Ben Taylor Thanks Lol it’s ok
This is the best reaction I've seen to this song
This Song hits everyone even the Toughest of Hearts 😪✝🙏
Dude I haven't listened to this song in the longest time. But I started a new job spending alot of time on the road and this song definitely hits a completely different way.
I've no children, but still this song is so touching. I mean he's really doing everything for hailie. I mean, basically if she'd ask him to stop music today, he'd do it for sure, just for the love to his beautiful daughter. There's nothing more precious than the own children ❤️
an underdog is also a pitch, you gotta swing by yourself..
dope video man
“One Under” is also a golf term, and you swing a Golf club
More is said in silence than a million words can ever say sometimes. Beautifully done with the subs.
Too true 🙏
Dude I love this reaction. Keep it up man you are on the way to being one of the best reaction channels! Love it because we can all relate! Thanks for giving us something to relate too
Thanks for supporting and for the words of encouragement. Appreciate you 🙏
Heard this song a hundred thousand times but it got me again when he said it’s no wonder you can’t go to sleep, just take another pill
Dude me too. I used to watch this on repeat while I was in rehab and just cry n cry 5 years later I'm still crying
This is one of the most emotional songs by the GOAT, extended listening would be Castle and Arose from Revival. You can do both back to back as it really should be construed as one song! The top songs the allegedly "flopped" album second to Believe on that album.
Wait a rapper that hasn't heard em before?
Straight bullshit lol
I think heard and reacted are two different words, isn't it?
@@alabhyapandey2999 "rapper reacts to Eminem for the first time"
That's impossible.... If you are reacting to something you already heard a 1000 times, it's not.... You know....🤷🏽♂️
idd straight up bs, u cant be a rapper and have not heard of him its just not possible. probably hoped for views on his name like everyone else does nowadays
I love to see that you aren’t afraid to show your vulnerability to your viewers. Being someone who’s struggled to break away from the stoicism that I developed from growing up around friends and family that taught me those values.
This is the Em I fell in love with. Whether he's rapping some wild shit or some deep shit...its all REAL SHIT! SLIM SHADY
Thanks for being such an honest person, keep it real
I really love this. Probably my favorite.
“i’ll give you one underdog then you gotta swing by yourself”
it’s also like he’s the underdog, she got him & his career so she’s gotta do her own thing 😕
Holy crap never thought about it that way, also reminded me of when Marshall said he kinda regret showing too much of his kids life in his career... Also explains why he isn't involved much in his daughters social life.
@@trash3289 one of the times where i wish i could just call eminem and be like “hey! is this what you meant in this 10 year old song ??”
I'm 45 now and this song hits me just as hard as it did when I first heard it. It would hit anyone who has a child and they're a workaholic. Or working hard to try to get ahead of bills. I'm sure a lot of people now are going through this very same thing. Time with your kids as kids you will never get back but it's an impossible feat to choose between paying bills and spending time with your family, knowing as kids they will never understand until they get older.
It's "funny" how life changes your perspective on a multitude of things.
I always loved this song (and still do) and can still sing it along with my eyes closed.
I had a difficult youth with a lot of bullying, no friends and growing up with 2 parents yet not have parents at the same time.
I swore to never become "like them" (my own parents) yet I see more and more of them in who- and how- I am.
After the passing of one of my parents, I see them in a completely different light.
Now that I'm a father of 2 girls (twins) and a boy myself, I try to give them what I (think/feel) I missed out on.
Reflecting back on the past, I sometimes see that things I blamed my parents for are sometimes the best lessons they could have taught me.
Maybe the way they where taught could have been different but at the same time I wonder if it then would have had the same impact/effect.
When I now listen to this song, a whole bucket of emotions get's dumped on me and I can just not keep it dry anymore, let alone sing along.
Sorry for your loss :( Nice to read about your maturing though. I don't think it's "funny", it's more like necessary. Some lessons take an awful long time to kick in. Your children are lucky to have a father who is striving to be a good and understanding person. Keep it up!
The fact that the song touched you because you love your kids makes you a great dad.
Please always remember that being a good dad is much better than being a good rapper.
Much respect🤙
This is a true artist bleeding on the page and opening his heart completely, Eminem was given a gift for this reason. Anyone can make a punchline and joke around, but only a few can make you dive into the inner workings of your own soul and give you new prospective.
When i first read the title i was like „”BRO YOU NEVER HEARD OF EMINEM BEFORE?” and now i watched it and its a great reaction,all of yours are🥺Keep making ones about NF & Eminem :) I think most of us can say that those are the 2 Rappers that matter the most to all of us❤️😩
Imagine listening to this song when EM will not be with us😞😞that emotion will hit double 💔
I sang this song when it came out almost daily. I was the haily. It was when my dad would leave for Iraq for work. And I know the situation wasn’t the same but I would cry and rap the song so passionately to myself. It felt cathartic…my home life was bad. Just know at the end of the day that if you’re good for your girls and they know that, it’s okay I think. Also the way technology is…it’s not like how it was when this song came out.
I don’t know if that helps. I know this is a very old video and idk if you will even see this comment.
I’ve been watching you for a couple months now and I just wanna say you’re one of my favorite reactors. Also, this reaction touched my heart to see the love that you have for your baby girls...I lost my dad 10 years ago and every time I think of my dad I know he’s looking down on me and smiling so I smile back. Thank you for being real.
I knew as soon as you see how Eminem feels about hayley and the grind it takes to build the life for them but also struggle with having to put time away from the kids to chase their dreams and build a future for their families but they’re human and stressed with pressure to please so many people that this would hit Knox hard. Eminem has always transformed music for me and make me feel many ways but the thing that’s never been a question is his love for his daughter
This song hits in the feels forsure
Couldn’t agree more 🙌
Every time I see this video I STILL cry!! 😭 Em's ability to tell a story and draw you into it, to feel it & become a part of it is unprecedented. First time I heard Em's music 20yrs ago I knew he got I was going through. He has this fantastical ability to relate to people on a human level that I've never seen or felt with another artist.
First time here btw 🙋🏼♀️ I really liked the way you analyzed the video & I loved your authentic connection with it. Congrats on those twin babies!! 💕👶🏼👶🏼
This song is emotional enough for me as a mother, but hearing your emotion is killing me. They're lucky to have you
You are the most honest and true among all the reaction. I appreciate the way how you see the logic on the rap story and not like others who understood it for someone else or something else that turn it negatively instead of learning and being inspired to.
i'm not a father yet, but this song always put me almost to tears.
I gained a whole new respect for you dude after this reaction! You're real, my dude! 💯% respect!
Appreciate it man. Thanks for supporting 🙏
@@KnoxHill Stay blessed my brother!
Every single time I hear this amazing song I honestly start tearing up and I'm definitely not ashamed to admit it
I gotta say these real, across, GENUINE reactions are my favorite to watch.
When art can make you FEEL, that's real art there.
Am I the only one who can relate to this song because everytime I hear this song I start crying and think about somebody but I am only 14 and I can agree with Eminem and you man just Saying because every time Eminem bring Della’s and I will listen to it 10 times so I know it before anybody and I are doing it just remind me and I can agree with most of his songs so that’s why E is the best and I will never stop listening to him until the day I die
Agree completely with this sentiment. Em just knows how to affect emotion and make so people relate to his words. Just an elite artist still performing at his best 💯
Love this song
Literally, when I'm gone and mocking bird gives me the goosebumps all over my body ❤🫠
Watching this in 2022 and u breaking down back in 2019 not realising what was to come and where u would be now amazing how the world turns..
Castle + Arose next (the songs are linked)
Your reaction was as pure as Em’s feelings. Thank you for such an honest review. And hakuna matata😇🥰🥳
Your authenticity is genuinely sincere, my man. I wish you all the good in life. I wish the best for your family and loved ones.
All fathers of daughters this song definitely hits you different. I was a teenager when this song came out and I loved it then. After I became a dad it just hits you on a whole other level.
i didn’t understand the meaning from when he hit the mirror but you went into detail and honestly now i see and feel the song in a completely different way, thanks man loved the reaction 👍🏻
Appreciate that. This song really hit home with me and it’s definitely one of my favourites. I’m glad other people can appreciate it too. Thanks for supporting 🙌💯
Knox Hill no problem man thank you for helping me see the song in a different way 🙌
Spacebound or mockingbird or till I collapse🔥💯😍 next
Man this makes me feel nostalgic. This is the 1st Eminem reaction on the channel and now we have the reactions to the beef with benzino. Time flies!
Bars, lyrics, rhyme schemes, changing rhyme and speed, stories, his own life (with honesty). Very few if any can do. GOAT
im just gonna say this, if you call yourself rapper and not listened to eminem even once. Are you really a rapper then?
eminem didnt listen to eminem, theres a lane for everybody
@@selman1646 probably listened to dr dre
@@selman1646 100% he listened to every rapper that was considered great though. Hate some love some. But you learn..
It's just weird if a rapper has not heard eminem. That's an accomplishment for every person. I mean how, especially if you a rapper.My father hates rap. He knows eminem though(and likes it).
Doesn't mean he can't be great. But I'm having a hard time to believe it.... Reaction videos simply ain't going to get vieuws if he said he listened to it a 1000x.
It's like a football player saying he never seen messi. If true its plain weird and a proper mistake
Your emotion in this reaction is touching.
I will be crying my eye balls out when this man passes to the next life! He is and has been such a motivational person for me even tho I don’t know him personally but his music to he’s you so deep! Love Eminem and I’m glad he’s still bring new music out and I hope he doesn’t stop no matter how old he gets !
Man this has to be the best and humble reaction of this masterpiece! ❤️
He is singing about his addiction This is my favorite 😭
7:00 just reminded me why I absolutely love your channel bro. I didn’t know you had twin congratulations on the most precious gift one can receive, and I’m going to speak for your twins and say they are going to be so honored that you are there dad. And I guarantee you that they are going to love you with with there everything. Keep doing you and keep the amazing content coming my boy. Once again congrats on dem babee’s ya dig. Much love from NOLA...
Love this classic from Eminem. The emotion in his voice still gives me goosebumps, even after all these years.
Bro I tell this to everyone. You bop to this until you have a baby girl. Then it hits you and it makes you cry every time.
Great review man keep it up it’s 2020 you’ll be even bigger
One step at a team. Thanks for being a part of the journey bro
Knox Hill no problem man glad to be apart of the team as well
Surprised you haven't heard this before... Great reaction, and true emotions when it hits you. I don't think you've reacted to(Unless I missed a notice) Mesus - Guest, and Mesus - Home which I would like to see, he also has a song called RIP to Rap (IDK if there is a video or not for it, haven't looked because I use Spotify for everything) but you'd be the only channel I'm subbed to that would've reacted to that one.
This song hit home. And when it 1st came out, it saved my life.
Respect for you and your daughters, I’m 21 and I have a lil 8 year old sister. I don’t see her often, like I see her barely cause she lives with my dad in another city and there is very little time to visit. That’s why this song makes me think of Naomi, my sister..
"feels kinda like 8 mile" has me dead lmaooo
React to Cleaning out my closet then Headlights.
The song got me in my feels too...I love when Em story tells; he’s been some through a lot and makes you think cause you can relate.
Shout out to you for being transparent on the video. I love this song and it's difficult to listen to it without getting emotional. I can't help but think about my babies too. Keep up the great work my guy! 💪🎧
Do "LOSE YOURSELF"
After a touching moment, you should go into something very lyrical, I would recommend the rap he opened the concert I went to of his with, Medicine Man, I will say I’m not a big fan of the chorus or Dr Dre’s verse, it just doesn’t sound like him, but the Eminem verse in my opinion is one of his very best!
Late to the party but have been addicted to your channel since stumbling across it. You hit the nail on the head with the Slim Shady reference. I saw in an interview Eminem discussed this song and said not only is it about the struggle of balancing fatherhood and fame but its also where he ends the persona of Slim Shady and puts the mic down on the Slim Shady chapter. Just love Eminem and how he can draw out emotion from his words and story telling. Your reaction tugged at the heart strings Knox. Keep being real and being you! Also you should react to Stronger Than I Was. Another raw song for Em. ❤
I jumped back to get caught up on your old vids and damn man seeing you get emotional just makes me respect you so much more brother. You're the realist one on UA-cam man. Much love fam
react mockingbird after this
How can you say let's start on a deeper song something special, and your reacting for the first time? Seems like you heard this before 🤔
I was thinking the same thing...
Maybe he was talking about reacting for the first time on his channel?
He definitely heard the song before. How can you be a rapper and not have heard this song from Eminem.
He just said he hasnt reacted to him on the channel, not that hes never heard him lol
This is why em is the goat ! He plays with ur emotions!
Too true
I saw as soon as it hit you and you started to get emotional I instantly got emotional and started crying 😭 congrats on the twin daughters they have a great dad. Keep up the good work. I know it's almost 2 years late but still. Keep being you man
I hope you do more eminem reactions
Absolutely! Much more Em on the way
Knox Hill: calls himself a rapper
Also Knox Hill: doesn't know Eminem classics
lets not gate keep rapping mkay thanks
@@William_Asston You'd have to live in a particulary deep hole to not of heard of eminem. Or just lie.
@@leepalmer9558 lying doesnt make you not a rapper. Not knowing about a certain rapper doesnt make you not a rapper. For some reason im certain knox man here had heard of eminem and simply hadn't sought out his music to listen to/react to. being ignorant to a culture doesnt mean you arent a rapper.
@@William_Asston Ain't it like not knowing who Newton is and calling yourself a scientist...just a thought :)
@@aspergerblue7511 Im sure there's something in your 3rd-grade class you might've forgotten, like what the spots do on a ladybug. That doesn't mean you arent (whatever grade you are). Or if you don't know what "because" means, that doesn't mean you cant speak English. It is exactly like not knowing who Newton is and calling yourself a scientist. And it's completely valid, even more so in science, because science is 0% a popularity contest and the closes to objective we can get. Hip Hop is a lot about the culture, and Knox is lacking in it, sure, but that doesn't mean he cant do something completely unrelated to hip hop culture: rapping.
This has always been one of my favorite songs from eminem, always feel warm everytime I listen to this.
this song never get old to me it alway on my playlist since 2006
Still waiting on my free waterbottle from an earlier video. Pay up Knox.
Parker t I’m waiting on my duct tape 😂😂🤦🏻♂️
Eminem mockingbird next?
I found your channel by accident and this is the first video I've seen of yours but I must say that I love this! Seeing how you reacted to the message in this song and what he's thinking it made me happy! I love seeing people react emotionally to music because it shows how deeply music can affect ones mood or mindset! Keep up the amazing work! Definitely worth the sub.
First time I've ever teared up over a reaction.. I understand the same I leave home every week for work. Love your reaction man you keep it 💯
Thanks man. Appreciate the support and all the best for you and your fam 🙏💯
I wish the best for you and your family also
