    The reason they liked the song is because it tells a story. That's what a lot of rap is missing today. They need to tell more stories.

      None of these new day rappers have stories to tell… besides the money women and drugs they dabble in. Musicians back then became musicians as an outlet to their life, music nowadays is all profit and just throwing recycled garbage to the masses who eat it all up. Drake is who I think about. Starting from the bottom? Right.

      @@paulim5040 Bro acting like 50 cent, Dr Dre, Snoop dogg, Biggie and even 2 pac weren’t doing the exact same thing. Lmao you fail to realise modern day Hip Hop literally started as a violent genre, they have always been talking about crime, drugs and shooting. NWA the fcking pioneers were exactly doing that. Story telling came after and you also don’t realise story telling rap is different to trap and drill which is what’s big right now. Story telling hasn’t gone anywhere, if that’s what you want you can go listen to NF, Hopsin, Token… but obviously that won’t be mainstream because no one is trying to listen to a depressing story at a party. If I’m drinking, vibing and there’s girls I’m not trynna listen to Joyner Lucas telling me about how a guy shot his friend for initiation or about suicide wtf, I’ll leave that for when I’m chilling with 2 friends smoking and we wanna deep some lyrics. When you’re in a big group you wanna listen to Pop smoke, Travis Scott, Fivio foreign, Tion Wayne… that’s the reason the rap you talk about is the only one you hear. But if you think the kind you like doesn’t exist anymore, you’re looking in the wrong place. I don’t know where this stupid belief that a rapper has to be some mastermind lyrical miracle to deserve his fame came from.

      Saying this is a "masterpiece" is like calling a McDonald's bigmac "fine dining". Your opinion is wrong due to your complete lack of actually going down the vast rabbit hole of rap. If it wasn't for Dido's song and voice carrying this whole song it would have never been a hit. This shit is simply whack af, a joke.

      ​@@silverphoenix684 Sorry you mad kid. But Stan is a Masterpiece. Period. By common consent too. It's a friggin movie in a song. It's the best story telling song in rap.
      It surpasses Slick Rick (Children's Story is a classic but a primitive form of the art), It surpasses Ice Cube, It surpasses Pac's "Brenda's Got a Baby" and "ghetto gospel". It's better than Wu-Tang's C.R.E.A.M and Impossible, Better than Big's "Juicy", or Nas' "Get Down", Better than R.A the Rugged Man's "Uncommon Valor", or Immortal Technique's "Dance with the Devil" (though that one is more shocking). It's better than Scarface's verse on Jay-Z's "this can't be life" although it's such a powerful verse (and based on truth).

    2) The chorus is a sample from the song “Thank You” by Dido which was very popular when this song came out.
    3) The actress that played Stan’s girlfriend is Dido.

    As a white guy that grew up in the Midwest on the 90s it's hard to explain what Eminem meant to guys like me or my brother. He opened a door between white and black kids of our age that some people assumed would be closed forever. It was like he and dre had figured out how to shift society under everyone's feet with songs. It was like magic or something and guys like me did lots of the same stuff stan did.
    Stan felt like the song most aimed at em's white fans, a show of appreciation for the love wrapped inside a warning. He saw that kids like me weren't ready to deal with something that felt so big to us and took the time to make a song just for us. It felt like he cared, like he remembered sending his own fan letters and being crushed to never hear back and wanted to keep us from feeling as bad as he did.
    I feel like I did a bad job explaining. This song meant a lot to kids like me. Em meant a lot. Spoke to our souls.

    In the song, Stan’s little brother is named Matthew. Stan was trying to get him an autograph and claims Em blew them off. A year or two ago a man broke in to Em’s house and Em had to hold him at gunpoint til the cops came. The guy was named Matthew and about the same age as the character in the song should be now. So while Stan wasn’t a true story, there is a real life Matthew who came for him.

    This was Eminem's way of telling his fans to stop taking what he writes so seriously. I personally think he's showing that he's not this monster he's portrayed by media and other people, but he's just writing about what goes on in our own society. He's an artist who is just holding up the mirror.

    I don't even care if they trickin us. I just like to pretend I'm a high valued culture man and look down at them for not knowing rap before I did.
    Now, listening to Em, Pack, Nas, Biggie, Scarface, etc nowadays is a bliss.
    I used to listen to Eminem when I was 11. I didn't understand a word, but I made me feel better sometimes, and just give me strength to be violent. I lived in a 32m² apartment in a urban center in Brasil, just me and my mother, she had her anger issues...but she did her best. She gave me the CD, on my 11 year anniversary because I used to camp the TV (without her knowing) till Eminem showed up on MTV. Sometimes she would catch me watching TV out of time and things would get ugly..but then I got the CD.
    Had no CD player, just an old radio, só I would listen to those few songs, multiple times all day in a low volume with my head near the radio, my motha didn't liked noise, loud noises would got her to rage, that developed because or apartments were all clustered so you could her the up neighbors farts even.
    Now, the only reason y'all Reading this, is because I learned English with Eminem. I managed to ask school teachers for the lyrics, and translations.
    Couple years after I had better English, we had to move out and live with my grandparents though, cause my father forced us out the apartment to sell it.
    That was what you would call "hood", ghetto, or whatever..older bros on the street would listen to Tupac, Scarface, 50 cent and many others. Jay-Z was considered g** sh1t, so there was not a lot of that in my younger years till I found out he wasn't singing gay balads.
    Anyway...this guy's, and most americans I believe, have no idea of the power, and value, of lyrics with beats from man like those.
    They saved me. They helped me, they educated me, they knew my life better than my parents.
    Now, if you read this far, go listen to a Nicky Minaj, or trap, drill, or any American rapper nowadays song, and tell me: Could those lyrics save your life?
    Yeah..now you get it.
    Btw, I've been to juvenile, asylums and rehabs. Now I speak 4 languages and got a PhD. Lyrics and beats been with me and got me here. You should value music, give it a shot.

    Honestly for those of us who were growing up when this came out I feel like we were all floored like the guy on the far right. That Era of music had quite a few songs that came out that just made our generation realize the world is shitty and life can be hard. Alot of us ended up having our whole world view changed during that time because of things that happened ( the columbine school shooting, 9/11 ) and then add some of the songs that came out like City High- what would you do, P.O.D.- youth of a nation, Blink 182- Adam's song. It changed our generation irrevocably. It was like the biggest reality slap that "holy shit. Growing up is terrifying" our perspectives morphed so rapidly. And it's so hard to explain to the younger generation because we feel like even though they understand what we are telling them they didn't experience those things like we did so they won't 100% get it.

    I love that they are reviewing and really getting into Em classics I can't help but think "man they really don't fully get what he was saying in the song". There were so many easter eggs in the song that they were oblivious to which is no fault of their own because they are of a different generation. They also should have not listened to the clean version of the song either b/c some key points were edited out.

    I knew of this song before I had heard it and way before I really listened to it but I remember realizing this is a short story set to music. Not only is Em's wordplay brilliant but he's a natural storyteller. Whether the story is his own or fiction, it lives in his music. Hoping you've listened to more of his music. If you're seeking requests, I'd love to see you react to "The Way I Am" or "Not Afraid" next.

    Eminem is a lyrical genius. I was 38 when I saw his first video The Real Slim Shady on MTV In 1999. I've been a fan ever since. Stan is one of his best. It's not a true story, but is a compilation based on some of the crazy fan mail he received from... Well, crazies.
    Oh, and never listen to censored versions of Eminem. You miss out on the full, in your face lyrics that made him famous. Either do it right or... don't do it at all. Peace!

I think it was a great collaboration and come to think, I haven't seen the video since it came out! What they bleeped out that long time when he was writing Stan back, he said," All that shit you talking about, about wanting us to be together, that's the kinda shit makes me not want us to meet each other!" Did we ever find out if it was based true? Y'all must be young, I'm 36, getting old! And you couldn't turn the radio on w/o hearing it when it first came out!
