    Without a doubt is pretty much the definition of Proof.

      Lama is another term for a gun, he's saying he could have turned to violence. Still a great double but I don't think he was going down the Muhammed Ali route. If he was then fair play for catching it

    The way Yela is talking about God as his best friend and then Em takes that same reverence and tone talking about his best friend Proof without breaking the immersion of the spiritual tone for people who are actually Christian. Also the end of Yela's first verse is one of the hardest God bars of all time. This is a super special song.

    I feel I'm watching you guys grow as you continue on your journey reacting to Eminem tracks. He blows people's minds with is skill. How he can take a subject and create double and triple entendres then continue it verse after verse is just one example of his insane talent. It takes so many listens to catch the bars. When you think you have, you listen to it again and you're like 'dam how did I miss that' and he blows your mind again. Em's tracks are thinker tracks, you need world history, including in his life and in his bars. Not fully knowing who Gandhi is, Clint Eastwood, who Em's actual best friend is (was). You guys are still toddlers with his reactions but like I said you are growing with each track.

    Love watching ya'lls Eminem reactions. Always a fan of them. One problem though....
    I always hear the saying "I see why people say he's the GOAT." It's okay to admit it man. Join the rest of us Stans. LOL. He is the GOAT. Undebatable at this stage. Longevity, flow, cadence, bars etc. Eminem will have you rewinding the track 10 times because you caught the bar and wanna analyze it, and in doing so you caught 2 more things that previously went over you head. To truly understand Eminem you have to go into the song and tell yourself, "What is Eminem gonna teach me today? Because I'm ready to learn sir." A lot of people prefer other rappers and that's 100% okay. He's not everyone's cup of tea. However; you'd be lying to yourself if you ever say that someone does it better. Think about it....Dude called himself "RAP GOD" and literally no other rapper pushed back on that claim. Says it all. He has the respect of his peers to the fullest. "Two words: Michael Jordan".
    Love you guys. Keep it up.

    • @Trepanation21
      @Trepanation21 2 роки тому +3

      "Clint Eastwood looking for peace" should have been "piece" in a lyric video, since that's the obvious slang and the top layer/starting point of the bar before you start digging beneath - the _pun_ of piece/peace is where the 2nd layer reference is to Clint's Peacemaker. So when he's "lookin for piece/peace", he's about to MAKE peace by pulling the gun and puttin em down. _Then_ the HHHs will recognize that Clint Eastwood at all in this song regards Proof which was aka "Derty Harry".

    “Who you think I'm talking 'bout?
    Lifts me up when I'm down and out,
    Still look to him without a doubt.”
    Of course he's talking about Proof.

Em gives so much love to the hip hop community. But his stans are so disrespectful. If you listen to Em because he's white, cool i get it. But when you then say he's the greatest and Em is really the only person you follow or buy his music. You shouldn't speak on hip hop. I'm not talking about you.

    Easily one of my favorite Em verses ever. I've been listening to Eminem ever since his first album came out, and every time I hear any old song or even any new song of his, I catch a new bar that I didn't even think about before. The dude is a genius.

  • @Rosiepooh75
    @Rosiepooh75 2 роки тому +44

    This entire verse is doubles of things that Em makes sound the same... Absolute lyrical masterpiece. The lyrics in this case threw you off, because you were taking most lyrics at face value. ❤
    some examples:
    "could have turned Dalai with the Llama"
    sounds like
    "could have turned Ali with the lama" - Muhammad Ali with the weapon
    "I've been a menace to"
    sounds like
    "I've been a minister"
    "'cause I'm a center"
    sounds like
    "I'm a sinner"
    read the "sounds like" in the context of the song, and you'll see what I mean

I love it when God gets hold of these really talented people! It is such a testimony to the power of God to not only redeem the broken, but then use that very talent to reach those that might not receive the Word from anyone else. Don't want to sound 'preachy', but God is real, He loves you and all you have to do is call out to Him and He will save you. This is proof that you don't have to be 'perfect' to be a Christian. He came to save the lost so that you can be found. Great song, great reaction! Blessings!!

The line about 2pac, Biggie & Proof talking and the end of the verse when hes talking about who he pulls his strength from and saying "And he'll be waiting at the gate when you get sprayed up, sending you hoes straight up to deal with my (best friend)" hes talking about his bestfriend Proof, not God.

    • @jaysea838
      @jaysea838 2 роки тому

      Yes.. you keep thinking after every bar it has to be the last part of the scheme but it just keeps going. His word play / knowledge of words / general knowledge of so many different aspects is extremely impressive. People always attribute it to EM reading the dictionary but that is maybe a quarter of it. Someone could read a dictionary every day of their life and still not be able to put bars / verses together. You have to understand the meaning / context of the word and how it applies to whatever situation you are referencing. What makes it even more impressive is the man failed grade 9 3x and then dropped out of school for good. Yet he makes the majority of people look remedial with his general knowledge. EM deserves all the props that he gets; he has certainly put in the work / effort.

  • @michellewright3004
    @michellewright3004 2 роки тому +6

    Hey guys, great reaction to both artists and the song as a whole. Thought I’d let you guys know that Em is literally talking about his best friend, Proof. He mentions him in the line with Iggy Pop, Biggie, and Tupac. That’s the “best friend” Em is talking about but Yelawolf is referring to God as his “best friend”. If you go back and listen to it, from when he says “you’ll be DOA” to the end, you’ll get it.
    Oh and also, the Bible Belt consists of Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi, Tennessee, North Carolina, Virginia, and Northern parts of South Carolina and East TX. Yelawolf was born in Alabama and raised in Tennessee. Both very much the Heart of the Bible Belt.

      Rapping wise probably but subject matter Best Friend verse is really incredible.

    Mahatma Gandhi was ethnically Indian, but was born into (at the time) British-ruled India. He was actually a lawyer before discovering and implementing the teachings of Hinduism in what would be his prevailing strategy to end British rule in India.

    In the future people will be going to church not to study scripture, but to study Eminem scripts...
