He has always been political, from going at bill Clinton to Donald Trump.
He went at the American government in the song White America in 2002. He also talks about how being white affected him and how people treated him when he used to be the minority in the hood, but then because famous.
You should react to that song next for sure
Exactly right. Eminem has been political since the start of his career. Personally I've never gotten into his political views prior to the recent years of him going after Trump as I've just been too young to understand.
One thing I wish is for people to agree to disagree when it comes to political views. I don't agree with Eminem's views on Trump, but I absolutely love his music and I'm not about to stop listening just because of it.
I’m pretty sure they already did white America I might be wrong though
Mosh is also another good one.
@@Ranganation amazing opinion for someone so young(I'm assuming u are young from your comment)..so rare spread that we can agree to disagree around more people need that👏👏👏
To me, the is some Stan level Eminem work. Gives me chills. No clue why he got the backlash - I can't imagine anyone being pro-massacre regardless of where you stand on gun control.
I completely agree on the fact of everyone being anti massacre obviously and I would say 99% of pro-gun people are. most issues that pro-gun people face is the constant push in from government on gun control and gun rights. which is not a bad thing at all other then most gun policies being put out these days are pointless and definetly not helping stop any massacres. gun control AND gun freedom are both political lures to one party or the other. most pro-gun people(unless extremely radical and crazy) are just afraid of the government gaining enough control to possibly take away amendments or make them obsolete. stopping massacres is an extremely difficult task... the weapons and creations are there for mankind to do whatever damage he wants with and mankind will always find what they need to complete their dreams. wether it is government over people. or people over people in a massacre sense. its sad but what is the solution?
@@gdmjs I agree, no matter what laws are passed (and I am legal owner with a concealed carry permit) it is never going to stop the wacko that wants to obliterate large groups of people. Mentally ill people don't always seek treatment so they often go undetected until it is too late. It is unsettling how "normal" completely abnormal people can seem. Stricter gun laws don't seem to be a solution because you can't put the toothpaste back into the tube. There is already too much out there and law-abiding people are going to follow the law - what about the criminals that have or want guns? They seem to find a way of getting them. Also, if someone wants to wreak havoc, they will find a way - such as bombing, etc. Why these things happen with such alarming frequency is a mystery to me. When I was in school, people has fights and rarely was a pocket knife even pulled out - but I don't think it ever occurred to anyone to go shoot up the school. What as a society have we done to create this? I don't know...
@@pastorofmuppets13 hell we are definitely on the same page then! You nailed it right on the head with the fact most people that go crazy and commit extreme levels of crime never showed any signs of being abnormal until that moment. So there is no way of screening them out or having a law to withhold weapons from such people, and even if we did then like you said the news headline will still have mass murder at the top only followed by use of a bomb or something else… and man I can’t understand for the life of me why it is happening so much more now… I always use to think that it is happening at the same rate as always but now it’s more publicized and easier for us to see via media, but now i don’t know… almost like the mentality of everyone has changed so much. Man I don’t know. Wish we could figure out some answer.
@@gdmjs dude if the government wanted yall dead it wouldn't because you didn't have guns... there are a lot of less messy ways to take out political problems, 90% of gun owners support common sense gun control laws. thinking owning a gun is somehow a way to protect your liberties is just a juvenile hero complex being acted out. that "good guy with a gun" bull. i say, "issues every citizen a gun at birth" so its just a mundane thing, and not just a fetishized object. 'merica
-that last bit is just trolliung
@@nellax8314 short of spreading disease/bombing/famines/or a political issue to divide us… the government is not this extreme god like figure that can just casually kill millions of its own people whenever they want, being armed is also for your own safety against well whatever the hell you want really… if you have an issue with guns/feeling like you’re compensating then don’t own a weapon. It’s your choice just like it is mine. I do not think it is right for a government or any person to tell someone how they can and cannot protect themselves.
This song is a masterpiece. The word play, everything reflects how things are in the states.
It reflects how things are yes but it’s coming from the point of view from somebody who wants more gun control. Which we don’t need. Most people are not educated in this subject. I haven’t done my research on this in awhile but I think it was almost 40 thousand people were killed by guns in 2019.sounds bad right? But the facts are more than 2 million lives are saved each year by guns. And that means they were saved either by defending themselves by using the gun or just simply by showing a gun and then the threat runs away. Guns are already hard to get. Ban guns and then you’ll have a much bigger problem with illegal guns. Take away assault rifles and make it to where law abiding citizens can’t buy them and you’ll just have criminals buying them illegally just like they do now. The back ground check isn’t easy to pass. The naive people act like you can just walk in a buy a gun but you can’t. Still a great song tho.
Not really though? Chances are nobody here (or very few) have ever been directly impacted by gun violence within the United States. It’s definitely a mountain/molehill situation that really isn’t as problematic as it’s painted to be.
20,000 (roughly) people died as a product of gun violence in 2020, and 2020 was a “record year” for gun-related deaths within the US. 3.35M people died in the US in 2020 - for all reasons - which means less than 1% of people that died TOTAL within the US in 2020 were victims of gun-related deaths.
.59% to be more specific.
How about out of of the entire US population? All 331,449,000 people?
.006% of people within the US were killed by gun-related violence. That’s 6 thousandths of a single percentage of the entire population of the country.
The chances of winning the lottery in the US? .007%
This means that you statistically have a better chance of winning the lottery than you do at being killed by gun-related violence in America - even when it’s a “record breaking” year.
Gun-related violence doesn’t even make the (top 10) US killer list. Heart disease (being fat) is #1 - directly responsible for 33 times as many deaths in 2020.
So when people state that this is “a problem”, I have to ask:
Compared to what exactly?
@@drawmelikeafrenchgirl bro just because there are things that are more dangerous than it doesn’t mean it isn’t a problem but I get your viewpoint and it still is a problem and if it could be solved or lessened to a degree it’s better than not doing anything about it
@@Bent_Dent sure, but when a bigger issue (by over 30 times) is that Americans eat shitty food, at what point do we prioritize the thing killing more of us by a significant margin?
I’m certainly not saying “don’t do anything ever”, but why are we trying to clean a room in the house while the roof is on fire. Shouldn’t we put the fire out first?
It’s just weird the way we isolated “gun violence” as this super prevalent issue, when you’re more likely to be killed by a drunk driver or McDonald’s cheeseburgers.
@@drawmelikeafrenchgirl ok yeah I get your viewpoint they should deal with the bigger issues first and then work on the smaller ones all of them must be solved nonetheless
I just realized, Eminem also payed homage to Simon and Garfunkel by playing the news reports at the end. They used news reports of drunk driving accidents in their rendition of Silent Night.
Isn't it set to a Simon & Garfunkel song? Was never a fan of theirs, but I know about them
@@JemJam2976 yeah the sound of silence
@@ianmclean6399 I believe the “hello darkness my old friend..” sample is from the Korn version of Sound of Silence.
@@Karlos2121 its still a Simon and Garfunkel song though
It’s simply pointing out how often it happens, not sure why people would hate on it. Regardless of what your beliefs are, it should be fairly obvious that something needs to change
Yeah look at all the places that hace banned guns in america. . Highest gun crime rates.
@@HelloThere-jr6gd Thats not true... the states that have gun bans havn't seen an increase or a decrease in gun violence simply because they are banning Assault Riffles. Most homicides that are due to gun violence are generally with hand guns. There are just too many guns in america for a gun ban to work. If you look at a country that has banned guns and gotten rid of them such as Australia, gun violence has dropped dramatically however killings with other means such as knives and blunt object rose significantly. So its not a gun problem its a people problem.
@@HelloThere-jr6gd Chicago, i'm looking at you.
@@HelloThere-jr6gd It's a little different in America where someone can simply drive a state over and not be subjected to background checks.
@@kylekranick2452 It's not a gun problem? Picture a mall with thousands of people. Put two psychokillers in there one with a knife and one with an automatic weapon. Can you tell the difference? Could have that Las Vegas shooter offed the same amount of people with kitchen utensils?
I'm glad Eminem isn't afraid to be himself and not go along with the majority. I'm all for guns, but I understand where he is coming from as well. The video and song are pure art
Can you elaborate on why you're all for guns? Not trying to provoke or challenge you to defend that viewpoint, it's just I'm not from the US (I'm in the UK where street police don't even carry them) so it seems a bit hard to understand from the outside. But I'm open to having some light shone on the situation.
@@SketchyMagpie best of luck to you buddy. Its not an easy thing to have a conversation with Americans about guns.
Im like you i wanna understand but it is risky as you know 😂
@Kev Prz I would argue wrongfully updated to not include criminals, like if we can't trust the people we let out of prison with a gun again why the fuck we let them out? They don't lose their freedom of speech or freedom of religion. Both rights protected by the constitution. Rights, if you can remove one from anyone then it is no longer a right.
@@tuckerrichardson2606 I'm a legal gun owner and I agree with this statement entirely.
I’m not from the US either but I fully support the right to have firearms, the vast majority of gun owners are responsible and use common sense and good practices to prevent bad situations from occurring!
Someone who has the mindset of causing harm to others doesn’t need a gun to do it, it could be just as easily be a vehicle used to inflict harm or any other everyday item.
The root cause of the problem is what needs to be addressed; what’s causing these people to have the desire to lash out against innocent people in the first place?
Is it because guns are legal? If anyone is saying that’s the case and they think guns should be illegal as a result are basically saying that they can be put in the bracket of potentially wanting to go out and kill random people as a form of protest against gun ownership!
It would be absolute insanity to suggest that!
People who go out with the intention of harming others have internal issues that haven’t been addressed or dealt with and these issues likely stem from an upbringing that wasn’t ideal, lacked the love and direction of caring people, had no positive role models to teach them how to manage their mental and emotional states, which in turn leads them to feeling frustrated, lonely, afraid etc., without help how can we expect these people to make good choices in life?
Firearms are simply tools like vehicles, knives, hammers or anything else and can be used for positive or negative depending on the intent of the user, to remove the right to own them from people for any reason is to remove that individuals free will to choose for themselves.
This action is a slippery slope, there is always someone who thinks something is dangerous based on their own subjective perspective, is that reason enough to give that person the right to choose on your behalf what’s right for you?
Removals of freedom to choose should never be acceptable, it’s all well and good supporting those decisions when it’s something you’re in favour of but what happens when it’s something you disagree with, how far is too far?
When we start letting someone/something outside of our own internal faculties make decisions on our behalf we are no longer free, if you love freedom and support the concept then you must respect the freedom of every individual and support their right to choose for themselves!
Our energies would be better spent trying to improve the situations of all people so that these incidents are not such a prevalent aspect of our societal structure!
This song 🎶 is dope!
The whole song is a double entendre
Others do this better
The double meaning, the wordplay in this song is powerful!
R.I.P. to all of those who lost their lives to gun violence 🙏🙏🙏
Brad catching everything “ You want me to rewind it” 😂 EM telling story’s through bars.
People hate on Em because its not MY NAME IS, CRIMINAL, etc. Anymore... EMINEM has done both slower and political songs on every album its not a new thing they just dont listen to those....
True but he has gotten much more politicsl over the last couple of years. There use to be one or two political songs per album. Now almost every song mentions politics somewhere in it
@@Michael-mv3kc true but hes also not 24 years old like on his first album... Hes 2 decades older and sober and matured... And dealing with things that affect him, his family, us now..not "my bum is on your lips my bum is in your lips"
I’ve been a big Eminem fan since I was a kid but I don’t like a lot of his newer albums, his flow and the beats are not too my taste, so I choose not to listen to them instead of hating. Although there are some songs I like such as this one.
This ENTIRE song is a double entendre... CRAZY!!! G.O.A.T.
Surely you've heard others do songs that are entendres right?
Other songs have doubles in them... but the premise of the song? Damn near everything he said was a double, while staying on topic the entire song? Am I missing something? What other song you know out there where Everything he said was at least a double... and also kept the same subject matter through the entire song while doing it.
@@michaeljohnsen1384 yes he was staying on topic while scattering a few entendres bars here and there. Still nothing that others can't do at a higher level
@@basedperson5248 I've said nothing hateful. But how can you be the best lyrically when you do nothing the best lyrically?
@@TooRealForMost Still nothing others can't do at a higher level?? Who?? You have to be a artist or realize how hard this actually is... Everything he's saying is from his real life to the massacre and schemes the whole song.. How can anyone hate on someone as skilled as Em?? You really sound like a hater. In this day and age. There's only a few that can do what he's doing.. Joyner and Kendrick is the only ones that I can see doin it at this level.
Also dropping a bit of knowledge... The shooter booked multiple rooms and had bellboys hauling multiple bags up day by day. He had multiple rooms booked back to back to back. He'd lined up at least a dozen high powered rifles with bumper stocks at every window and moved from window to window.
This video shows... what? Ten seconds of shooting? The Mandalay Bay went on for OVER TEN MINUTES before a very lucky employee noticed a door on the shooter's door being blocked off.61 deaths. 867 casualties in result of the attack. That was in perspective, a FUCK TON of people.
Let's give *#Brad* a round of applause👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
He picked up the Double Entendre scheme quicker than a lot of *Eminem* fans & even breakdown channels did when this song dropped
I think he caught on super quick because he is anti gun control. So he was kinda waiting for it.
Fuck I just get more and more confused by these comments lol. Are there actually people that listen to rap that don't know about how Em does wordplay?
Please link to one of these people/reactors, I need a laugh.
first time, they get it right lol
@@x8jason8x even with the warning at the beginning of the video now added many so-called Eminem fans don't get the double entender until way late or not at all
Rich people will always have security with guns protecting them...they should stay the hell out the conversation entirely
The word play in this whole song are so good.
Brad with the expert analysis and breakdown for her, great job man really dope video
Two meanings with the same words. Eminem is just on a whole other level
Can’t wait to watch this one!!
The entire song is a double entendre. Alcohol/drugs = guns/ammunition. Once I realized this was about the Las Vegas shooter I had to rewatch this 7 more times to appreciate it. Absolute masterpiece.
As someone from the U.K. this song hits really
Hard. Even though knife crime is unfortunately becoming more frequent and devastating, if gun laws were the same as some states in the U.S. loss of life would be far worse than the casualties we have already witnessed. I’m 100% with Em on this and I’d go even further in introducing the same laws on knifes as there is on guns in the U.K.
And I shall wield a larger board with a nail through it, than you can produce. And you will kneel before me and call me Kang!
Thanks for confirming they’ll be coming for the knives next and it will never end.
It's about the Las Vegas shooting where the guy killed so many people from his hotel room. Sung from the perspective of the killer.
It's sad that people are hating for his views and not his talent.
I didn't like his new stuff for musical reasons but this one is actually pretty good. It seemed like after Relapse his flow got less creative and he just seemed to be trying to rap fast all the time and be hard. I always liked his sense of humor and he seemed to totally lose it.
The song is dope
I don’t care if I don’t agree with his views
His songs are awesome
@@SoloDallasII The fast rap is really only on the features that he does. Maybe 1 or 2 songs on an actual album.
I was actually gonna recommend this song last time you did Eminem but i thought you were doing the old Eminem first and tbh i couldn't remember the name of the song then.. Its such a good song and video and he tells it so good.. I get goosebumps every time. This is the third or forth time I've seen it and its still so good. There are so many doubles in this.. Its just a great song..
Probably the biggest reason people hate Eminem is because he did a cypher freestyle going against Trump.. Im not going to say to much about it Incase your going to react to it. He lost so many followers after that... And for some just like the old Eminem cause he didn't give a f.. He thinks abit more of what he is saying and had become abit more political. There is multiple reasons why people like the new Em or hate the old Em.
I think this is one of his most dope tracks, new or old. This song with the video always gives me chills. Such a horrific day that's all too common in this country SMDH
he wasn't saying take guns away, he was just saying it should be regulated better.
He is a lyrical Genius. Its mindblowing what he comes up with . I dont understand how people can hate and say his new stuff is trash.
Right? He’s literally better than he’s ever been technically. I can’t even keep up with most of his new stuff because he says so much you have to listen to a song like 30 times before you catch everything! He’s insane!
People don't like him because of his character, just because someone is a lyrical genius doesn't mean they are good. I don't see any Innovation In his music, It's not that he is a good Lyricist or anything but in today's society people are in it for the music and not for the lyrics. Just the political system trying to tell you what music is good, For example lil nas x, The music is garbage but They push it so hardTo make it viral. Eminem is just so disconnected With his Younger audience, And the Older population grew up with him that even if his music is trash they are still going to support him.
@@sexygorillanips7535 How's he disconnected with his younger audience? Ppl call it how it is, even stans. IF its trash then it is.. His last few albums were some of his best... You honestly sound like a hater. He's actually more entuned than you think..
Lol exactly. He's 10x better now than he was in 1999. Lyrically, skillfully. More mature. Nobody's on his level.
Ppl who say he fell off, or doesn't "have it" anymore are just mad he doesn't rhyme about killing/raping ppl, popping pills, etc etc anymore, or as much. He's almost 50 and still more appealing than 90% of other rappers today. He's grown but still a juggernaut.
Its not even about politics, Eminem has had very influential political songs throughout his history most famously being "Mosh" or "White America"...the secret service even approached him about MOSH, people dont like new em because they say all he does is "Rap Fast" which is false because from his projects most of the songs don't use the double-time flow,...the real reason is that Eminem now focuses more on lyricism and proving his caliber as a top tier rapper and at times the sound of the song suffers whereas in the past his songs where more digestible for basic mainstream consumption.
The funny part is, is that Eminem continues to break records and numbers, so the complainers are simply a loud minority. He's been the highest-selling Rapper for the past 3 decades and even now in the streaming era he's one of the few or only Legend acts that compete at the top of the boards with the Younger Top acts.
I still cant believe someone convinced you that Em fell off. the reason why people don't like new Eminem is the last few albums were woke. He talks about this on Music to be murdered by, referencing people saying he sucks cause of his content being weak, then releases kamikaze and people hating on him because he woke. If people are talking smack about the Music to be murdered by albums, it has to be because they cant catch the bars. Those two albums are so intricate and detailed they are truly amazing once you listen through a few times and catch all the schemes. Its crazy. Dude is still a lyrical genius. At this point when you listen to the last album, he's just messing with everyone cause hes bored.
*EMINEM - STAY WIDE AWAKE*
Alot of people can't catch bars. Too much to understand for them. Em 🔥🔥🔥 got 2 for u. 2pac fea eminem one day at a time and 2pac fea eminem soldier
To me, as a non-american, it’s just soooo insane that the gun laws are such a heated debate. From an outside perspective it’s insane how people can be defending the current gun laws in the USA.
Great song.
You wouldn't get it unless you grew up with guns
I actually have a song suggestion for you. It's called Fack that was on eminems greatest hits album curtain call. It's a very deep and meaningful song you will love it. A masterpiece of the highest caliber
No they don’t need to here that…
@@generobertson6544 oh but they do. Its his greatest masterpiece 🤭🤫
@@shadowstrike1559 no it’s not he was on drugs really bad
@@generobertson6544 jeez you must be fun at parties 🤦♂️
On a serious note I agree with Dazza definitely take a listen to it. It will reveal to you what he was feeling at the time 👀 very deep song
the whole song is a double entendre it’s truly a masterpiece! Em The Goat,Em was trending Number 1 on UA-cam page and UA-cam Ghosted it from UA-cam’s Trending spot so it would’ve gotten way more views I’m speaking about the Music Video btw and also if you’ve watch the Video when it first came out you’ll think he’s talking about himself and not the shooter cause “The Warning” label wasn’t on the video but after UA-cam Ghosted it they added the Warning label so only real OG’s remember once Music To Be Murdered By dropped at noon it was a surprise album too and I was shook when I saw it was a full album and he didn’t just drop a Music Video😉👊🏽🐐🎯💯
Came out at midnight for me but i hear ya
I’m 2 years late to this reaction and I’m sure others have said this in the comments but this video is basically exactly what happened in the shooting. I went on my first Vegas vacation 6 days after this happened and it was very strange. It was still an active crime scene with tape and cruisers at each entrance. Eminem is obviously a genius that’s not afraid to talk about heavy shit. This video is moving, depressing, and beautiful all at once
Urgh i forgot this one is gun related im gonna sit this comment section out.
New Eminem isnt trash that better be clickbait lol. Man evolved grew and got better i think
"Hello Darkness, my old friend" is from "The Sound of Silence" (Simon & Garfunkel).
This song is so fucking deep... it's about the Vegas concert shooting he is a lyrical genius
Most of the hate was more because of his music and not the political stuff, some came from that, but the hate is disappearing after his last 3 albums because they had really good music and he started back attacking the ppl that would come at him . Relapse recovery mmlp2 and revival, were the albums most were hating because after the near death drug od experience em kinda really rebuilt his style and more of his wise side was showing, but now when people go back and listen they actually respect it more and most that say they hated it actually change their minds about it and think those albums are classics. Its kinda weird to me, I actually think ppl were disappointed because em started to get wiser and was sober and his music reflected it, ppl didn’t really give it a chance and now they are. But maybe cause I was getting wiser at the same time I always appreciated it. But it actually shows this is the truth, a lot of youtubers have been getting popular mainly because of Eminem reactions and are probably the most viewed rap reactions on the site.
The song and message is amazing. He's always been in tune with things. Mosh is amazing
Eminem-Not afraid pls
Ik i am late but I'm here now and its great to see you two again!!!
people who are saying new eminem is wack, haven't listen to eminem after revival.
They need to be more strict on gun laws. Recently where I live, a person opened fire on a car because of road rage. People go trigger happy even though they haven't had previous convictions.
Eminem has only gotten better throughout his career. Once people understand mainstream success does not dictate skill level (which will NEVER happen) the whole world would improve. He is the highest level an artist can ever hope to achieve.
If you notice in the end where Em is watching news on cluster of TVs, they are in shape of America on map... 🔥🔥🔥🔥
This is the equivalent to the darkness in Pearl Jam's Jeremy. True sties of tragedy and death.
This whole song is a double entendre! 🔥
Regardless of your beliefs, you have to appreciate the lyrical talent and creativity that went into this song. 👌🏻
React to Eminem - Legacy 🔥
This entire video/song is a double/triple entendre. Greatest use of video and song to get 2 entirely different views on what you think you're hearing
Eminem singing 🙏🏻
This is incredible. I love this so much. Where Lex can get into all of the intricacies of rock music that Brad doesn’t quite relate to, Brad nails this all over the place and Lex kind of doesn’t get it. This is by far the best reaction channel ever.
This one hits hard being from vegas, but the song itself is so powerful. To me this is true art. I don’t agree with the gun control message in it, however the way this is done is absolutely amazing. Sure is thought provoking.
can you imagine that to convince yourself no one will come
Prime Eminem was political. He’s never not been political. And there’s a huge fucking difference between allowing someone to have a gun for self protection and allowing someone having as many of whatever arsenal they want with the barest background check and no kind of mental health evaluation.
Wait until you hear you gon learn, leaving heaven or lock it up lol
Oh my favs👊
New Eminem is the best rap ever. The lyrical skill, the wordplay.. Nobody comes close to Eminem's skill. I've been a fan since the Slim Shady CD, and I love new Eminem the best. His last two albums, Music To Be Murdered By side A and B are the best rap albums ever. I think anyone who doesn't like new Eminem probably just doesn't like having to think about all the double and triple entendres, but that's what I love most. Like this song for example, is an entire double entendre. His song Venom is an entire triple entendre. His song Alfred's Theme is bar heavy with every line being an entendre. The amount of skill it takes to be able to do that, and have a crazy flow, and make things rhyme, is just out of this world. He's an alien. A goat alien lol.
Well it's the same em has in the past. He isn't scared to voice his opinions. Back then he was pissing off suburban families. Now he is pissing off the right wing. Always love em for speaking his mind even in songs where I don't agree with the message.
I’m so so glad you were able to catch the bars and his double entendres. And it’s so funny that he actually says double entendre in the song. This is something Eminem is famous for his homophones and his double entendres, definitely a lyrical assassin and I think he did a great homage to the incident in Las Vegas, also bringing awareness to the gun laws.
She looked like "yea, i got it"... "behind hers eyes, she so didn't"
The rest of mtbmb wasn’t political at all
Zeus was, but that was side 2
People really started turning on Em when he dropped the album "Revival." This song is from 2 albums after that.
You guys mention something half way through the video that I found striking. You couldn’t remember the details of the shooting. I don’t say this to diss you guys, what I’m saying is this: shootings are so common in America that a literal massacre that would be unforgettable in pretty much every other country in the western world is something you can’t even remember the details of. Surely that tells you all you need to know about how fucked the gun situation is over there.
Also, I was typing this as the video was playing and the girl said she didn’t like that it was political at the end. Two things about that: 1. The song is politically charged from the start and delivers a very powerful and important message about a very real problem in your country. I understand if you’d rather Em didn’t do politics in his songs but I’m struggling to see the problem in this particular instance. 2. If you don’t like politics in your music then that’s fine, I totally understand, but surely when it does come up and it’s something as important and as powerful as gun control (or lack of) in America then you’ve got to either give Em credit for it or disagree with him. This isn’t a subject where you can just gloss over it and say you wish it wasn’t political. If I misunderstood your point I apologise, there’s a good chance I misheard as I was typing out my comment when it came up. But if I heard right then o strongly disagree with what the lady is saying. Enjoyed the video though!
Yeah I think known what the song was about first def hurt the song, that was suppose to be a twist
Like somebody saying “ hey you should watch Sixth Sense where Bruce Willis is actually a ghost, it’s crazy”
This was one of the best natural reactions I've seen. Blessings to you both. Keep it up.
Not natural since they obviously knew it was about the shooting before they started. Plus no surprise facial expressions or anything at the critical moments of the video.
Whoever suggested this song did Eminem dirty because this song doesn't represent his new style at all his new music is fast and his flows are even crazier
He’s just evolving if you ask me :) nobody is going to stay the same forever! Let the change be positive. Have a nice night.
Eminem in 1998: I Just dont give a “fuck”
Eminem in 2020: I got these “Fucks” left over…you want some?
I remember I got a notification when this was released on UA-cam. After the I heard thr 'haven't got vaguest idea why I'm so lost.' I'm like, 'oh shit. This is going to be another Mockingbird. This is going to be another instant classic.'
the more I watch this the harder it becomes to watch. Love the song and creativity
I don't think it's that political to say that dudes like the Vegas shooter shouldn't have such easy access to guns.
If there is an issue, and I'd say shootings are, society should work on a solution. Taking away all the guns or just leaving everything as it is both seem to be bad solutions at this point. But something needs to change and registering to vote to make your voice heard is one way to start.
This made me think about what it must be like to be an artist in this shit too
Not 1, not 1 reactor caught the line about people jumping over each other to get away but he said John Travolta (Juming over), staying alive by inche (staying alive/ John Travolta movie)
Song is amazing........great way to introduce his classic M2BMB album. New Em is just evolved, and continues to cement his bust on Mt Rushmore as the goat of this ish. haters always gonna hate, especially against the most popular artists. Pay them no mind. Em is still dope af. #goat
People wanted slim shady back and he's back, Em has been controversial his entire career. Love Slim Shady bringing the controversy.
I am pro 2nd Amendment, but I appreciate what Eminem did with this song and honestly it made me think too. very very good song. Great reaction too.
These “mentally ill” people didn’t go into these places with neon purple nerf bats and start bopping people on the head, that’s all IM saying…
SOMTHING about ALL of these situations are what made the difference!
I wish we could've seen your reaction to this video without the twist being spoiled.
Em is UNAPOLOGTICALLY Himself period!!! That's why I LOVE HIM!!!!
They hate him because he's real hip hop n at 50 still better than any new rappers
People hated the song because it's pro gun control. Which is very unpopular
ART
The double entendre's & word plays are insane!! This is a dope song 😍
Brad catching those bars .. just look at his face 😂❤️
There's protecting yourself and then there's having a whole arsenal full of rifles and RPGs at home just because you are a ''gun enthousiast ''. And if people didn't have guns in the first place..then they would be protecting themselves with a baseball bat..but they don't want that..
People will say he doesn't say shit, or he doesn't have content or just rhymes to rhyme but there are a ton of songs that prove otherwise. But regardless haters gonna hate
Double entendre is the word you were looking for haha
This song helped me understand more without condoning crap...
Em don't need no baiting btw
this song and video is amazing. We did our reaction on this and my cohost was blown away.
this whole song has 2 point of views at the same time. the vegas massacre killer's point of view, and eminem in his own career and it finally culminates
they sent a robot first and saw he was dead
Great reaction, you guys still have a lot of old eminem from his first 4 albums to react to. Guilty conscience, lose yourself, kill you, marshall mathers, without me, square dance, superman, hailes song, i’m back…
Hes not saying he wants guns banned for personal protection, second amendment issues, hes saying the ability for a 53 year old man tonarm himself with military style weapons and unlimited ammo because he has no criminal record, needs to be fixed, limits set, more background checks. Im all for ownership of weapons, I've owned them all my life, but to think your neighbour could have 100 military style weapons and 1000s of rounds at his disposal is unnerving in a way, if they just snap and wipe out your whole family, no one is gonna say, well he was just protecting themselves, thats the issue with the argument, people can't say they want weapon reform without people taking it as a ban on all weapons
It was a fantastic piece of art. Even if i don't agree with the message ENTIRELY. Their swords, and every other terrible implement of the soldier, are the birthright of an American.... [T]he unlimited power of the sword is not in the hands of either the federal or state governments, but, where I trust in God it will ever remain, in the hands of the people." (Tench Coxe, The Pennsylvania Gazette, Feb. 20, 1788.)
Either Budden didn't get the song or he had a Salieri moment and was so consumed by envy that he called it trash.
Lex likes the "Hello Darkness my old friend" line and likes rock but has yet listened to Disturbed sound of silence!!?? You deffo need to check that out guys! (video version)
wow this reaction was Brad powered
It is amazing the amount of lines she doesn't catch.. Can't recognise a single bar and then reacting to Eminem.. That is the the definition of counter proactive reaction😂
Eminem's been political for a long time. Just listen to his "mosh" song from the 00s. I respect that he just as unafraid to say his personal political views as he his dissing anyone in the world.
I’m from Texas and you ain’t taking our guns what’s so ever. Em still a 🐐 tho.
Wow...ok I haven't listened to Em for the past 15 years maybe. Until a few days ago, I listened to Monster. Really enjoyed seeing how talented he still is. Now this song...just wow. Actually it was a great song. Im completely for Americans to have their right to have guns, that never will change for me. But him talking facts of that shooter who had a right to have his guns, but yeah he is mentality ill. Had to be to do what the shooter did in Vegas. I dunno what has to be done to stop this madness. But one thing I do know..this country does not take care of people who have mental issues. Period. That is something to bothers me. You have to have the best medical insurance to get the right help. There should be mental health clinics in ever single city. To get people the right help. That would stop at least half these shootings..maybe. I'm sorry for venting.
