From the album Music To Be Murdered By, out now: smarturl.it/MTBMB eminem.com / eminem / eminem / eminem shadyrecords.com / shadyrecords / shadyrecords / shadyrecords
This album is an absolute classic and will be forever in history. We are lucky to live in this era where one of the greatest is still on top of all and owning it. Truly lucky.
I don’t think people realize how underrated this song is.. The entire song is a double entendre but the lyrics, wordplay, multi-syllable rhyme schemers with triples and quadruple entendres in here is absolutely mind boggling
50 years old and still the best rapper ever. I started listening to him since the 90s and I still love him. Friends laugh because I'm 43 and they said it's time to grow up and I ask them what the hell is wrong with that. The guy is a legend, rap God
this song hits different when you realise is not about someone,em was speaking about his relationship with drugs..at the final throwing the methadone in the wc he also talked about this in arose from revival also the flushing toilet
@@Odyssey636 but em does a lot of doubles and triple entendres in his music,another ex 25 to life from recovery it s about the rap game but it can also be about kim
Even tho this song is about addiction, me never being an addict, its much more relatable for me as a heart break song. Only difference in the hook for me is "I used to always have your back".
As a man I admit, this song makes me cry. I've delt with addiction, death, ODs, terrible relationships, cheating, and abuse. He hits me on so many levels, and emotions with this one. Man....
👁 Bro I understand that. It’s literally going Whoooosh over your head. It’s main subject is drugs but the context can be used for other interpretations. The way he describes the drugs can be said about how one feels about a woman. The ending is the only thing that isn’t an entendre. So don’t be captain obvious and listen to the song with another view.
As a life long struggling alcoholic and drug addict, I can honestly say that Eminem perfectly encapsulated the relationship between people and substances as well as accurately describing how it feels to try and quit. Hits so hard now that I'm sober. 💎
Eminem is a god for making a whole song being a double meaning. At first you think it’s about a girl but then you find out that it’s all about drugs 🐐🐐🐐🐐

One of my favourite songs, I completely understand and get, been through it more times than I wanted. Eminem, the great one. Music is like therapy, saved me so many time. pure brilliance.
Just got there myself couldn't believe it when I realized, had to check a few more times to see if every line could have a third meaning with hiphop and his critics and his fans. Just wow...
...and than later on....or if your a seasoned addict....you realize it’s JUST about his benzodiazepine addiction and opiate addiction....but of course it’s em so he is gonna use double or triple entendres.
@@netronvide0s856 Thank you.....so many people keep adding this meaning to it. Clearly it's meant to sounds like it's about a woman when it's about drugs. The 25 to Life comparisons are good, but this is even better. So much of the stuff about drugs is so literal/specifically about drugs and yet can still have meaning when thought about as a song about a woman.
Hope you are better now man, human beings are capable of adapting to any kind of situation, no matter how bad it is. You will end up stronger and wiser and, if you need help, do not hesitate in asking!
Eminem has always done this for people who go through it. Not Afraid, Space bound, legacy, guts over fear, and so so so many other songs. He speaks up for the ones who cannot! It’s why he’ll always be legendary. Thank you for everything Em…..always and forever. - from a life you literally saved.
Man, my life been fucked up. Dealt with drugs, lost my fiancé and I told Siri to play a eminem song and this came up. Came to UA-cam and have had this shit on replay, I can’t explain why but this song is giving me the power to move on. I’ve never had a song make me cry while giving the power to punch a wall and say let’s keep going
Anyone going through any kind of drug problems, I can relate to this so much. I’m an alcoholic at 33 I’ve had 2 seizures from withdrawals this year so far. It’s crazy how on point he is!
I’m 4 years clean from drugs and alcohol, after listening hearing thru song for the second time and realizing it was about drugs, i was complete shook and legit cried the whole song. It’s so deep, how does he do this?
"But no one knows what i'm goin' through, so I used you" "Cause one minute I'm hollering screw you, next I take it back, guess you could say I'm trying to unscrew you" This song hit different.
Think of spacebound He's saying fans let him down but the media was going first not fans and they don't get it so he got bad reviews and people listened to it and ended up disagreeing with the reviews so media as just bashing shady all over again and then the dissing happened which means u don't make a song u make a point MGK made a song not a diss track but because it sounded better but wasn't people felt Eminem fell off without listening to the album Then it rose up once people did Just keep listening to Eminem the haters are wrong He has made variant music but none are actually bad just not all of his are his best
its bars and fire, becuase its double entedres all way through second verse "sometmes i feel like you all i have, thats i why i try to hold onto you for as long as i can , and you want me for my money so i got you wrapped in saran, damn talking about eating out my hand, But if not for my financieals, i wouldnt have you anyways. There have been ample, plenty days, where im just in a daze and i just cant pull myself out of this rut , and your so much of a handful.
When I listen to Em, people think, "he's listening to the a top, iconic rapper who keeps it G" but in reality I'm listening to a top, iconic rapper who knows Men are human beings too and he speaks to their hearts an soul making them keep it G. Em ❤️
I was smoking cannabis 10 years straight and that everyday.. Quite not much like snoop dog but I hit that dope hard like I'm his nephew. Today I'm 5 months clean. To everyone out here, you can do it and make it through!!! Just belive in yourself, do it for someone you love, your family.. Wife.. Kids what or whoever but do it especially for yourself cuz you're only once on this earth. Stay healthy and blessed. Peace ✌️🌎❤️ - one Stan out of millions of Stans
@@saganvalle3356 bro don't give up now, there's still a way to go for you. Keep pushing mate! And be FUCKIN PROUD OF YOURSELF! :D Just don't give up and Rambo it
I dunno man a lot of artist would kill for 5 mill on their videos, and this isnt even a music video or got any promotion behind. Em can still pull huge numbers he wanted to, but doesnt seem like he cares about that stuff anymore, he is just releasing music cause its what he loves, respect.
I could be with anybody, I choose you Still, it's no excuse to abuse you But no one knows what I'm goin' through, so I'd used you To be truthful, I wouldn't know what to do if I lose you So I refuse to, might have a screw loose and a fuse blew But I think I might be buildin' up a tolerance to you 'Cause one minute I'm hollerin', "Screw you" Next I take it back, guess you can say I'm tryna unscrew you But the shit's about to pop off, yeah, I feel you up Then I got you totally open as soon as I take your top off You're so hard to resist, you knock my socks off My friends say you're bad for me, hogwash I'll never love again The way I loved you Did you find someone new?

This song has actually help me get out of a poisonous relationship and drug addiction to crack, 3 months officially sober off drugs and My life has completely changed anything is possible!! Em you are a legend ❤️ Edit: didn’t realise people would read this, I wrote this 2 and a bit years ago I am still sober and never looked back… thank you for you kind messages means a lot ❤️
Im a complete stranger but take these kind words... your doing great, keep it going and im glad your finally on your path to becoming a better you keep reminding yourself that everyday
This is a special track. It's relatable and a tear jerker even. Tbh the toilet flushing at the end is what made this so special. It also reveals the meaning behind the song for those who didn't figure it out yet. My favorite from the album.
This song is such an absolute masterpiece. I used to write crazy double and triple entendres, sometimes entire verses like that...used to rap and do shows and mixtapes and worked with some folks, whatever. I've got a story. And at one point I thought I was better than this guy. I was young and arrogant. Eminem at his age should not be able to do this. He's gotten better with his last two albums...how is that possible? He's gotten so good how can another artist even relate to his talent at this point. He's on an island of his own. To think of what he would have been like sober in his 20's and early 30's...but who cares. Now he has his testimony because of it, and we get this level of art as a result- what an incredible career arc the man has had. There will never be another Shady, man.
Yeah, he's number 1. If you look at his music objectively and ignore the bias of skin colour, age or anything else his talent is unmatched. Lyricism, cadence, bars, flow, rhyme schemes, double/triple entendres, stage presence, storytelling, vocal diction, literature. He is the best at all of them individually and put together
What does his age have to do with anything? He's not a professional athlete lol. And it's not like he's THAT old. His mind is sharp. He uses his brain...not his body.
@@sameenergy9414 breath control and oratory skills? And yes true but science tells us our brain DNA begins breaking down around age 30, so we literally lose raw brain power with age, though we gain experience based IQ and enhanced vocab etc. All that said, hip hop was always a young man's game. It's hard to even be in touch in your 30's and 40's, much less at age 49. You have to admit it is impressive for him to remain this relevant for this long.
When Eminem said, *he got more hooks in him than swae lee* (which I know was a double entendre) He literally came with some fire hooks in this album ngl.....🔥🔥🔥
Hearing this in 2024 for the first time. Crying a lot. How lonely has to be a man, to feel such deep love for drugs? Also he’s sounding so like younger him! This song reminds me of Stan and Mockingbird.
I love how he just drops these slick ass doubles. Bro every bar in the song can be interpreted as a relationship with a female or his relationship with drugs. Darkness follows the same thing. The whole album is extremely calculated and trimmed nice and neat. I get so excited when Marshall drops new music. The discography of this man's work is astonishing. 🐐 [Final Copy]
@@AvatarN yeah critics don't have any credability these days. i mean look att the film industry just a bunch of bullshit false shit that ones the real viewer reviews come in you can see that the critics where just full of shit.
The fucking double meanings are insane. "Trying to unscrew you." "Talk about eating out the palm of my hand." "You're so much of a handful." "Feel like I'm on top when I'm on you."
*"Never love again.. the way I loved you.. did you find someone new.. are you doing with this them..."*
Damn this one hits so hard..
This with lol
Yep that is hard ...
Yes that did hit me hard.l aswell
Get it hits so hard... he’s talking about drugs

I don’t think people realize how underrated this song is..
The entire song is a double entendre but the lyrics, wordplay, multi-syllable rhyme schemers with triples and quadruple entendres in here is absolutely mind boggling
Massive world play, the way he manipulates verses is absolutely insane, I been here for 22 years on Em’s shit he’s the goat of goats 🔥
Isn’t the song the triple entendres?
Drugs love and rap game?
@daddyday-killer3096 yea that's why I said it had triples and quadruples as well
Finally someone points it out!
just curious cuz im blind, what quadruple entendres does he make?
it's been 2 years im still rocking this album it's pure gold
It aged well
Me too 😉
Really great honestly, we’re lucky to still have em around
The replay value is very high
2020 really wasn't so long ago.
Em clearly got the numbers mixed up, he must think it's 2002 again. This guy just hit his second prime.
So fucking true bro
he's now optimus prime
Optimum prime on the 12 &13th Album
I was a teen in 2002 and damn that was the best year in music history!
soli taire kinda maybe
The most underrated yet low-key most fire track in the album
That's my favorite, dude.

Agreed, but I also really love Unaccommodating, You Gon’ Learn, Marsh and Farewell
50 years old and still the best rapper ever. I started listening to him since the 90s and I still love him. Friends laugh because I'm 43 and they said it's time to grow up and I ask them what the hell is wrong with that. The guy is a legend, rap God

Lyrics:
I could be with anybody, I choose you
Still, it's no excuse to abuse you
But no one knows what I'm goin' through, so I'd used you
To be truthful, I wouldn't know what to do if I lose you
So I refuse to, might have a screw loose and a fuse blew
But I think I might be buildin' up a tolerance to you
'Cause one minute I'm hollerin', "Screw you"
Next I take it back, guess you can say I'm tryna unscrew you
But the shit's about to pop off, yeah, I feel you up
Then I got you totally open as soon as I take your top off
You're so hard to resist, you knock my socks off
My friends say you're bad for me, hogwash
I'll never love again
The way I loved you
Did you find someone new?
Are you doin' this with them?
'Cause I remember when
Still remember when you was mine, yeah
We were inseparable at one time, yeah
You know my love for you was undying, yeah
You used to always have my back
Some days it feels like you're all that I have
That's why I'm tryna hold onto you for as long as I can
And you just want me for my money so I got you wrapped all in Saran
Damn, talk about eatin' out the palm of my hand
But if not for my financials
I wouldn't have you anyways, there have been ample
Plenty days, where I'm just in a daze and I can't pull
Myself up out this rut and you're so much of a handful
I can only take so much of you all at one time
Because too much of you's just too much to swallow sometimes
Gotta take you in doses, but when you're not at my side
I shake in convulsions, separation anxiety 'cause we may be the closest
Yeah, baby we hopeless, don't we make an atrocious
Combination? We know, it's like playin' with explosives
Quite dangerous though, but my brain's in hypnosis
Such a wide range of emotions
Migraines, but why the fuck am I takin' these MOTRINs?
Ibuprofens, like a drop of rain in the ocean
And you're my fix on the days when I'm broken
But the shit's about to go sideways, I just know it
I'll never love again
The way I loved you
Did you find someone new?
Are you doin' this with them?
'Cause I remember when
Still remember when you was mine, yeah
We were inseparable at one time, yeah
You know my love for you was undying, yeah
You used to always have my back
So I spiral downwardly 'cause I'm too cowardly to leave you
Head is clouded in a fallacy, but in reality, somehow it seems like
When I lay me down to sleep I'm counting sheep, you're bound to creep
'Cause every time I turn around, you keep runnin' out on me
You're my Xanax and my Valium, I'm an addict you're a downer
You're my habit, it's like I found you in the cabinet
But it's like I can't uncap it 'cause it's childproof
A scoundrel and fiends how I feel around you
Awful, every time I lost you, felt like I had you in my pocket
Now I'm flippin' over the furniture, punchin' holes in the walls through
Everything that we've gone through
How many times you've fucked me
But the way it felt for me to be on top when I was on you
Swore my fealty, but word to G-O-D
I thought you loved me, but you tried to kill me, I'm getting off you
Quit callin' for me, hard proof's how I respond to
The Ambien and Tylenols too
Fuck all you
Fuckin' bitch
We're done

@@mayzz.11 it’s been 2 years now for me, it was so hard but so worth it. i hope you’re doing alright xxx
How are you now?
I have just now “discovered” this new album and already have multiple of favorite songs (including this one). ❤
One of the only old school artists left
The legonds never die
MTBMB is an instant classic. The hooks! The lyrics! The flow!
I'm absolutely in love with this album💯
insane album
Yesss for sure. It’s crazy how much he’s grown up in his songs since he started making music lol
This song literally saved my life when i lost it all. My kids, ex fiancé, my whole life was falling apart. Something about this song just saved me.
Never give up you’ll make it bro
Keep your head up, fam
Hope you are better now man, human beings are capable of adapting to any kind of situation, no matter how bad it is. You will end up stronger and wiser and, if you need help, do not hesitate in asking!
Eminem has always done this for people who go through it. Not Afraid, Space bound, legacy, guts over fear, and so so so many other songs. He speaks up for the ones who cannot! It’s why he’ll always be legendary. Thank you for everything Em…..always and forever.
- from a life you literally saved.
Man, my life been fucked up. Dealt with drugs, lost my fiancé and I told Siri to play a eminem song and this came up. Came to UA-cam and have had this shit on replay, I can’t explain why but this song is giving me the power to move on. I’ve never had a song make me cry while giving the power to punch a wall and say let’s keep going
Anyone going through any kind of drug problems, I can relate to this so much.
I’m an alcoholic at 33 I’ve had 2 seizures from withdrawals this year so far.
It’s crazy how on point he is!
This song hits hard
I’m 4 years clean from drugs and alcohol, after listening hearing thru song for the second time and realizing it was about drugs, i was complete shook and legit cried the whole song. It’s so deep, how does he do this?
No idea
Good for you man. Em would be proud. 👊
G.O.A.T.....He's the best... He made rap his
Congrats on being sober
Hope you're still clean dude
"But no one knows what i'm goin' through, so I used you"
"Cause one minute I'm hollering screw you, next I take it back, guess you could say I'm trying to unscrew you"
This song hit different.
Think of spacebound
He's saying fans let him down but the media was going first not fans and they don't get it so he got bad reviews and people listened to it and ended up disagreeing with the reviews so media as just bashing shady all over again and then the dissing happened which means u don't make a song u make a point MGK made a song not a diss track but because it sounded better but wasn't people felt Eminem fell off without listening to the album
Then it rose up once people did
Just keep listening to Eminem the haters are wrong
He has made variant music but none are actually bad just not all of his are his best
its bars and fire, becuase its double entedres all way through second verse "sometmes i feel like you all i have, thats i why i try to hold onto you for as long as i can , and you want me for my money so i got you wrapped in saran, damn talking about eating out my hand, But if not for my financieals, i wouldnt have you anyways. There have been ample, plenty days, where im just in a daze and i just cant pull myself out of this rut , and your so much of a handful.
When I listen to Em, people think, "he's listening to the a top, iconic rapper who keeps it G" but in reality I'm listening to a top, iconic rapper who knows Men are human beings too and he speaks to their hearts an soul making them keep it G. Em ❤️
I was smoking cannabis 10 years straight and that everyday.. Quite not much like snoop dog but I hit that dope hard like I'm his nephew.
Today I'm 5 months clean.
To everyone out here, you can do it and make it through!!! Just belive in yourself, do it for someone you love, your family.. Wife.. Kids what or whoever but do it especially for yourself cuz you're only once on this earth.
Stay healthy and blessed.
Peace ✌️🌎❤️
- one Stan out of millions of Stans
1 month clean of everything , feeling great 🙏🏼 had a couple off days but still pushing smiling cuz of how sober I am
@@saganvalle3356 bro don't give up now, there's still a way to go for you. Keep pushing mate! And be FUCKIN PROUD OF YOURSELF! :D
Just don't give up and Rambo it
Why so underrated? 😭
I dunno man a lot of artist would kill for 5 mill on their videos, and this isnt even a music video or got any promotion behind. Em can still pull huge numbers he wanted to, but doesnt seem like he cares about that stuff anymore, he is just releasing music cause its what he loves, respect.
We gotta promove it
Because not everyone uses youtube to listen to music
Lol what
It's not underrated, nothing is underrated that eminem has done, he is one of the most rated artists in music history
2:13 “’Cause every time I turn around, you keep running out on me.” When you realize how clever this line is…
Explain
For a girl: Every time he turn on her, she keeps running away
For the drug: Everytime he looks at the bottle, it's out of drugs
Disagree
Dylan FaRannte disagree about what?
Because pills go so fast, and your only thinking about how to get the next ones... they always running out on me.
The addiction song.... its a wound that never quite heals... always the realest
Your voice never gets old
I could be with anybody, I choose you
Still, it's no excuse to abuse you
But no one knows what I'm goin' through, so I'd used you
To be truthful, I wouldn't know what to do if I lose you
So I refuse to, might have a screw loose and a fuse blew
But I think I might be buildin' up a tolerance to you
'Cause one minute I'm hollerin', "Screw you"
Next I take it back, guess you can say I'm tryna unscrew you
But the shit's about to pop off, yeah, I feel you up
Then I got you totally open as soon as I take your top off
You're so hard to resist, you knock my socks off
My friends say you're bad for me, hogwash
I'll never love again
The way I loved you
Did you find someone new?
Are you doin' this with them?
'Cause I remember when
Still remember when you was mine, yeah
We were inseparable at one time, yeah
You know my love for you was undying, yeah
You used to always have my back
Some days it feels like you're all that I have
That's why I'm tryna hold onto you for as long as I can
And you just want me for my money so I got you wrapped all in Saran
Damn, talk about eatin' out the palm of my hand
But if not for my financials
I wouldn't have you anyways, there have been ample
Plenty days, where I'm just in a daze and I can't pull
Myself up out this rut and you're so much of a handful
I can only take so much of you all at one time
Because too much of you's just too much to swallow sometimes
Gotta take you in doses, but when you're not at my side
I shake in convulsions, separation anxiety 'cause we may be the closest
Yeah, baby we hopeless, don't we make an atrocious
Combination? We know, it's like playin' with explosives
Quite dangerous though, but my brain's in hypnosis
Such a wide range of emotions
Migraines, but why the fuck am I takin' these MOTRINs?
Ibuprofens, like a drop of rain in the ocean
And you're my fix on the days when I'm broken
But the shit's about to go sideways, I just know it
I'll never love again
The way I loved you
Did you find someone new?
Are you doin' this with them?
'Cause I remember when
Still remember when you was mine, yeah
We were inseparable at one time, yeah
You know my love for you was undying, yeah
You used to always have my back
So I spiral downwardly 'cause I'm too cowardly to leave you
Head is clouded in a fallacy, but in reality, somehow it seems like
When I lay me down to sleep I'm counting sheep, you're bound to creep
'Cause every time I turn around, you keep runnin' out on me
You're my Xanax and my Valium, I'm an addict you're a downer
You're my habit, it's like I found you in the cabinet
But it's like I can't uncap it 'cause it's childproof
A scoundrel and fiends how I feel around you
Awful, every time I lost you, felt like I had you in my pocket
Now I'm flippin' over the furniture, punchin' holes in the walls through
Everything that we've gone through
How many times you've fucked me
But the way it felt for me to be on top when I was on you
Swore my fealty, but word to G-O-D
I thought you loved me, but you tried to kill me, I'm getting off you
Quit callin' for me, hard proof's how I respond to
The Ambien and Tylenols too
Fuck all you
Fuckin' bitch
We're done
You've reserved a place in heaven by adding lyrics here ❤️
Thx
Did I get to say thank u
Micfan2020
Sweeeeet
only thing.....it's not "hard proof"....he's making the sound of spitting
1:54 when dr dre put his hand on the track .. woooooow 💯💯💯💯💯💯💯
I still don't understand why this song is so underrated
Still here 2024 ❤
This song has actually help me get out of a poisonous relationship and drug addiction to crack, 3 months officially sober off drugs and My life has completely changed anything is possible!! Em you are a legend ❤️
Edit: didn’t realise people would read this, I wrote this 2 and a bit years ago I am still sober and never looked back… thank you for you kind messages means a lot ❤️
Nice, glad you’re doing better.
Im a complete stranger but take these kind words... your doing great, keep it going and im glad your finally on your path to becoming a better you keep reminding yourself that everyday
I hope you are still sober
I do hope you kept it up..
❤️ you are just heroes.
We are more powerful than we think about us...
Legend is back
True
noor quli legend was always here and always will be
Bs he never left
This is a special track. It's relatable and a tear jerker even. Tbh the toilet flushing at the end is what made this so special. It also reveals the meaning behind the song for those who didn't figure it out yet. My favorite from the album.
Yess
This song is such an absolute masterpiece.
I used to write crazy double and triple entendres, sometimes entire verses like that...used to rap and do shows and mixtapes and worked with some folks, whatever. I've got a story. And at one point I thought I was better than this guy. I was young and arrogant.
Eminem at his age should not be able to do this. He's gotten better with his last two albums...how is that possible? He's gotten so good how can another artist even relate to his talent at this point. He's on an island of his own.
To think of what he would have been like sober in his 20's and early 30's...but who cares. Now he has his testimony because of it, and we get this level of art as a result- what an incredible career arc the man has had.
There will never be another Shady, man.
Yeah, he's number 1. If you look at his music objectively and ignore the bias of skin colour, age or anything else his talent is unmatched. Lyricism, cadence, bars, flow, rhyme schemes, double/triple entendres, stage presence, storytelling, vocal diction, literature. He is the best at all of them individually and put together
Let me here these 'crazy verses'
@@yunngmelt1858 send me your email
What does his age have to do with anything? He's not a professional athlete lol. And it's not like he's THAT old. His mind is sharp. He uses his brain...not his body.
@@sameenergy9414 breath control and oratory skills? And yes true but science tells us our brain DNA begins breaking down around age 30, so we literally lose raw brain power with age, though we gain experience based IQ and enhanced vocab etc.
All that said, hip hop was always a young man's game. It's hard to even be in touch in your 30's and 40's, much less at age 49. You have to admit it is impressive for him to remain this relevant for this long.
That beat switch is my new drug now...!! Damn💕
yeah same though ahaha
W
When Eminem said, *he got more hooks in him than swae lee* (which I know was a double entendre) He literally came with some fire hooks in this album ngl.....🔥🔥🔥
Swae Lee honestly has the best hooks in rap
Triple!
W
Love songs are always so much more powerful when they're about drugs and not an actual person.
You KNOW it real when it's done like that lol
2024 anyone?
Still my favorite song
The moment i understood the double entendre OMG genius
I think this song is a triple entendre. Drugs, women, music
Dom S yeah could ne with em you never know
yesss, with good live performance! forever
I'm waiting for the person to like so it's 69
@@shisuiuchiha4847 now
When Eminem makes a song about addiction but you get addicted to it
outstanding move
One of my favorites albums
Hearing this in 2024 for the first time. Crying a lot. How lonely has to be a man, to feel such deep love for drugs?
Also he’s sounding so like younger him! This song reminds me of Stan and Mockingbird.
I really love the last Verse when the Beat changes..
I love how he just drops these slick ass doubles. Bro every bar in the song can be interpreted as a relationship with a female or his relationship with drugs. Darkness follows the same thing. The whole album is extremely calculated and trimmed nice and neat. I get so excited when Marshall drops new music. The discography of this man's work is astonishing. 🐐
[Final Copy]
so does 25 to Life from Recovery. It's a song about hip hop but can also be taken as a song for his ex
ALSO his life in the rap industry. ;) yeah its got triple meanings. which is insane how well its written and it fits these themes.
its quadeuple drugs , alcohol, women, rap .
Love this track. The best goes so hard with the vocals.
UA-cam will never Recommend Eminem music Until you find by urself
This part 1:54 is literally amazing!
It gives me goosebumps. Dre mixed and mastered it which is why its amazing.
@@spinal1280 Yes, exactly!
Hell yeah on repeat mode 🔥🔥🔥
Word
@@MarcelReuling yo what the actual fuck
Easily my favorite song on the album. Every other song is a very close second. This album is fucking crazy. Thank you. We needed it bad.
The hook really grabs my soul as a whole 🔥🔥🔥
The chorus is a reflection of my reality.
Exactly what im going thru now.. he really was my drugs.
@Eminem Music you're the fake slim shady
Same thing im going thur
Can't get over how classic and fresh this feels at the same time. Pure energy, art in motion.
The greatest to ever do it. Period. This song is about his addiction and I know everyone whos ever been there feels this so powerfully
2024 AND STILL CAN'T GET OVER THIS ONE !!! ❤
This was another song the critics really went to war against. Kinda sad they didn’t like this, I liked this song!
They don't get it. Everything goes over their heads
Who tf cares what the critics think if you're a fan just enjoy the music
@@AvatarN yeah critics don't have any credability these days. i mean look att the film industry just a bunch of bullshit false shit that ones the real viewer reviews come in you can see that the critics where just full of shit.
this is actually one of the better tracks imo. absolutely amazing. complete song is a double entendre. which is insane how well its written.
yea cuz they didnt understand it
The fucking double meanings are insane.
"Trying to unscrew you."
"Talk about eating out the palm of my hand."
"You're so much of a handful."
"Feel like I'm on top when I'm on you."
that beat switch revives me every time
This song hit hard 4yrs ago today.
One of the most underrated songs!
Probably my favorite 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Same 💔
This song just hit different mannn.......best legend rapper 😎😎
The flow.. felt it.
This song and album is a masterpiece, The hidden subtext exposition in this song blows my mind!
7 days clean now, wish me luck
AGAIN TREND FOR THIS SONG HAS COME.. ❤️❤️❤️
REELS GIVES SO MANY GEMS WHICH I HAVE NEVER HEARD OF😍😍..
never love again 💔😌
First love is always the one hardest to ever get over....
It is about drugs...
it's about drugs bruh
Well yea that's true
@@goatbeatz664 it's about both lmao
@@goatbeatz664 that's why he said I shouldn't have abused you
Yall gtta EM his respects, but make sure not to leave Dr. Dre out this picture too! They both killed this album!
And Royce
Yeh I never forgot about dre
