  • "Like Toy Soldiers" is a song by rapper Eminem on his worldwide hit album Encore, that tells the story of his feuds in an attempt to settle down the rap community. He speaks his heart about problems with The Source magazine and its editor Benzino, as well as Murder Inc. Records. He explains the beef between Ja Rule and 50 Cent. He finishes off the song by offering a truce to his enemies. The song reached the top 40 in the US, and #1 in the UK. It samples heavily on the chorus from the song "Toy Soldiers" by Martika.

    this reminds me of my brother..he was a soldier who was killed...and I was there with him as he died...and I was torn to pieces....It's hard to see someone you care for die...

    One of Em's BEST songs.. the only rapper I've ever heard to make this song.. which was needed.. And not many could really do it like Em. the way he portrays his feelings so vividly.

    Marshal,
    A few are here to listen. Fewer are here to speak. You were born to speak. I often wish I could go back in time and tell people how much they matter. Even if you remain dead at the final resurrection, you will be remembered as a representative of the essence of what it is to be human. Peace be with you freind.

    I will say this much. I don't always agree with his message, but I love his music. At the top of his game, there is no rapper better than selling his story to the listener. There is no rapper more capable of making the listener feel what he is feeling when he is singing/rapping.

    Though I don't listen to rap much, Eminem is one of the greatest rappers I have ever heard, and about the only one I can stand.
    And now he is back!

    I had this song in my head and I just had to listen to it. One of Eminem's many great songs. I hope he starts to produce songs like this again. Crack a Bottle was all right and We Made You was just one of his more relaxed, funny songs like Just Lost It. But now I want to see him compose great music like this. Everyone knows he's capable. We're just waiting...at least I am.

    This video makes me really sad cause Proof did die for something so small. R.I.P. proof. Eminem is a legend. His music will live on. I have great respect for this guy he has been through a lot and hes still out there keeping his head up and pushing through it all.

    One of my favorite songs by him.
    Top five BEST rappers i've ever heard:
    1.Tupac
    2.Biggie
    3.Eminem/Nas
    4.Kanye/Jay-Z
    5.Ludacris/Lupe Fiasco
    If you havnt figured out by now 3-5 i had to give it a tie. Couldnt put one artists above the other.

  • @TheMR043
    @TheMR043 15 років тому

    to think how ironic the song's video is? It depicted Proof's death - The sign Em needed to see that beef in Hip Hop could turn fatal... and then Proof really gets fatally shot.
    I was watching this video on TV this one morning, and that same morning while I was cleaning my room, I heard on the radio that Proof was dead - the irony instantly hit me.
    This really is one of Eminem's best songs. R.I.P Deshaun Dupree Holton
