This is 100% his story. Haile is his daughter. The killed guy is his best friend, Proof. Like many people said it here already, this is probably not the best song to start with, but Em's legacy is absolutely astounding, and his ability truly is super-human.
alos hallie is his daughter
OHH!!
@@Hannahhh yes
@@Hannahhh he has 3 daughters haille is his biological daughter
React to eminem- Halies song
Portugal here for the Goat Eminem always since day one and forever. Thanks for reacting. Salutes.
Eminem is the biggest and best ever in majority minds worldwide for decades.
Eminem-Mockingbird or Stan, is also good! There's too many to list without writing a mini novel! xD
I also use subtitles, because the show is at volume 5 and the commercials are at volume 100 lol xD
After you listen to a few songs you'll hear every word he's saying! (except the record breaking speed raps, those may take a few listens)
Proof was Eminem's Best friend, he was killed.
Some research about the songs meaning may be okay, but if you do too much research you'll find some times one has to listen to 2 songs for a whole story, and keep in mind some albums he was dealing with issues so they're ...off the wall. You shall find out!! Blind reactions are the best!
Awesome Reaction! :)
I completely agree!
And thank youuuu
Well said bruh..
This song was meant to be about “bugz” a former D-12 member who was killed between all of this Ja and Benzino beef. It just so happened that Proof (the guy playing the character who got shot) died in 2006.
Yessss
omg this took me BACK!! annie and i used to listen to this 24/7
Omg!! I was never really that big on Eminem tbh
@@Hannahhh you missed out on alot
This song is about Bugz a d12 member who was gunned down in 1999, Proof is the rapper portraying the guy who died in this story who was Eminem's best friend and Proof actually got gunned down 2 years after this song came out. The rapper Ja Rule mentioned Hailey (Eminem's daughter) in a song not in a good way and it pissed Em off. Btw if you still want to react to Em's music react to "When I'm gone" it's a really beautiful song and I absolutely love it
Search for explicit/dirty versions of Em songs because some of the official versions ("Stan" especially) on UA-cam are almost unlistenable because swear words etc. are censored
Yea this was definitely a bad choice for a first time Eminem reaction there is just so much backstory to this song. But I suggest you react to Stan it’s a classic and one of the best storytelling songs of all time and you don’t need any background information on it the story is pretty straight forward
Thanks for the suggestion!
@@Hannahhh if you do STAN ... please make sure you chose the non censored version ... otherwise half the song will be erased
Hailey is his daughter!
Oh!
Remember this song coming out as a kid, never understood it. The more I grew up and listened the more I understood. At the time Em did this song he had Beef and was worried it would end like Big or Pac. But yeah you got it, Its basically showing how the rap game causes violence and trouble and how many have died hence the end clip Tupac, Biggie & Bugz appear etc
That makes a lot of sense !
Thanks for explaining:)
Great reaction, can’t wait for more
Thank you!
Very Cool !! Can't wait for some more reactions !!
Thank you sm!
This was maybe not the best song to start with. Gotta know some of Em's history and career to get it.
Also, this video always chokes me up a bit. The man shot in the video was his best friend Proof. This was pretend in the video obviously, but sadly Proof was shot and killed just a few years after this...
Proof was playing Bugz who was killed before the video
Yeah.. I had no clue what it was about so I didn’t know I shouldn’t start with it
And fr ! That’s so sad :(((
@@Hannahhh Hailey is Eminem’s daughter. Ja rule and 50 cent were going after each other. Because eminem is affiliated with 50 cent, ja rule dissed eminem in a song and called out Hailey.
Exactly
Eminem wrote this song after one of the members (Bugz) from his group D12 was killed. The CRAAAQZY part about this is that Em's best friend since forever, Proof, who played "Bugz" in this video actually ended up shot to death too, about 2 yrs after this song
As many stated this wasn't the best song to start with - but Em got a huge catalogue so don't worry. Great reaction regardless.
If you ever wandered where the phrase "I'm a Stan for`fill in the blank'" comes from, it goes back to one of his best storytelling songs "Stan". If you wanna do a reaction please search for the dirty version, otherwise there will be parts missing, this goes for almost every song, the explicit versions are always better.
A few suggestion:
Deep:
Stan, When I'm Gone, Mockingbird (all got a music video)
Cleanin' Out My Closet (but I wouldn't recommend this as the next reaction video)
Castle and Arose in THIS order, neither got a video, so you could watch a lyric video
Lose Yourself
Funny & also classics:
My Name Is
The Real Slim Shady
Without Me
Just Lose It
Oh and please do me a favor, no matter what they say don't listen to "Kim" for the first few months or even longer - just trust me.
Do 8 mile road..one of his most motivational songs 💪... We as Americans is also a super dope song
So much to unpack here, so work with me as I try and lay my thoughts out coherently.
Firstly, I love this song. One of my fav by him. Turned me on to him big time growing up. Powerful message, strong feelings. Not sure it’s the greatest to start with though, if you’re going to do a series around him. You had asked who is Hallie and why is 50 in the video, which are valid questions for someone who hasn’t followed Em’s music/career. I strongly urge you to begin with his oldest stuff and as you become familiar with the people in his life and the struggles he’s gone through, maybe after a video do a little reading about them, they’re very in depth and detailed, then skip around.
Hallie is his daughter, she’s referenced in a lot of his songs, for obvious reasons lol. Hallies song (actual title) is one of his most emotional/somber tracks.
50 was signed to Eminem’s record label, so being part of the video makes sense. One of this lines in this particular song says ‘we actually tried to stop 50 and Ja beef from happening’ references a brewing feud between 50 and Ja Rule (another rapper), that Eminem and Dr Dre (the man largely responsible for Eminem’s success) got involved to prevent from escalation.
The entire video is about rappers dying as a result of feuds, as is very evident in the final shot of the video where you see fallen rappers including Tupac and Biggie. Eminem’s message in this song is to lower the temperature to a point where you can rap, feud, and diss people, without getting killed over it. In the final verse he says ‘there used to be a time when, you could just say a rhyme and, wouldn’t have to worry about, one of your people dying’. Very powerful.
Final thought from me as I feel I’m rambling, there should be a way to watch UA-cam videos with subtitles. I’ve seen other reactors do it, although I’m not sure if you have to be subscribed to UA-cam premium or something. Worst case, watch lyric videos. The lyrics are what make rap (specifically) so powerful and impactful, so catching the lyrics is super important.
Excited for the Eminem series though, he’s truly remarkable 🙏🏻
This is all problems Eminem had between 2002 to 2005, Beef with Ja Rule, And Benzino from the source magazine. Also 50 cent was signed to Eminem and Dr.Dre and his initial problems with ja rule stemmed off to Em
Also the guy that gets shot in the video is Eminem’s real life friend Proof. The video eerily predicted his actual death about a year or two later after this video came out
@@BennySazon Actually, the story was meant to be about “bugz” a former D-12 who was murdered between all of this beef. It just ended up a coincidence that proof died in 2006.
Eminem is the goat 🐐
If u REALLY want to go back in time, check out Tiffany "I think we're alone now" or maybe anything from The Cure, especially LOVE SONG, Just Like Heaven, or maybe some NIN "Something I Can Never Have"... Let me know if u want more 😘
Eminem came to my mind! He the GOAT 🐐
I knew it !!
You need to listen to more Em! :) Especially the older stuff...I'm here for it. *Scribed!
Em pronounces his word better then almost anyone in Hip hop at least the ones that speak U.S. English
I love your voice 💞. Love the accent and you're beautiful ❤️. Wish I lived in England. Maybe I'm way out of line. I'm a big fan of yours keep doing what you do.😊
Blind reactions are best
Okay good 😭😅💖
HAhahaha I think everything went over your head! :D
Title was catchy so thought of checking it out. Then she said “Who’s Haley?” You can’t do a reaction video if you ask that question!!! So closing the video.
Makes me feel so old when I see people who've never heard his stuff 🤫
REACT MORE EMINEM PLEASE
Besos desde Argentina ♥
Like your react, try lucky you, renegade, cleaning out my closet, he also recently did a killer remix with Cordae and Jack Harlow. Haileys his daughter
Em is the GOAT!! He is the best to ever do it
all I remember about the track was it was beef with EM and rapper Benzino because he spoke shit about Hailie EMs daughter
Eminem Mockingbird one of the best song
You def should react to lyric videos if u want to see the lyrics. At least until u get used to Eminem. A lot of reactors react to the videos and comment on the video instead of the lyrics bc the video distracts them. When ppl watch Eminem reactions I'd say most are watching bc of his lyricism (which is at an elite level), not bc of his music video. It will help u understand what he is saying. Once u listen to him for awhile u can pick up what he's saying without lyrics - even some of the fast parts.
His friend Bugz got killed and his best friend proof played Bugz in the music video. A year or so later proof got killed also.
That’s so messed up omg
Yeah I understand what you're saying and it's ironic because Eminem is literally the rapper who literally pronounces every word and syllable the absolute clearist. One of the thousands of things he's known for. And you can always just do the reactions with the subtitles on.
I get that, but even when I’m watching a film that’s talking slowly, I struggle to hear
- also I tried to watch with captions but it was unavailable
@@Hannahhh that's all right keep it up you'll end up mastering this thing in no time. And if you are somebody who likes lyrics buckle up and get ready because there is nothing when it comes to song lyrics like Eminem. And honestly what I would do is not saying you don't know this but just go ahead and brush up on the multitude of different things that rappers use in lyrics. To name a few especially for Eminem, of course metaphors, similes, double entender's triple, quadruple,...Etc, homophones, onomatopoeias, schemes. I'll stop there. But to understand what he's saying you need to know what those basic things are. Hope you do well 😁
Eminem is talking about signing 50cent to his label and 50cent is from NY and he had a street Beef with a rapper called ja rule from the label murder inc.
Eminem is talkin abt how he was being bad mouthed by the source magazine , which was huge hip hop magazine back in the back in the day and owner of "the source", Benzino (a trash rapper) was taking shots at Eminem around the same time
So despite Eminem's best attempts to resolve the conflict b/w 50 and ja and himself and Benzino
They all got into a "rap war" filled with numerous diss tracks because ja rule mentioned "Hailie", Eminem's daughter in a song in a disrespectful way.
This song is after em and 50 successfully emerged victorious from this rap beef and now wants to call truce and says he doesn't any of his friends to die like Tupac or Biggie or Big L (who all died because of rap beef)
Do reactions to lyrics video when reacting to Eminem don't do music videos, because Music videos are censored and it is hard to follow the lyrics xo.
Please listen to “mockingbird” and “when I’m gone” you’ll love them
Eminem
Also I would recommend for you to do the lyric videos for Eminem reactions if it helps your hear the words
I definitely agree
You need to react to more Eminem songs
Coming up! :))
@@Hannahhh cool
Proof is eminems bestfriend who got shot
Damn..
@@Hannahhh yep, n now in a recent song he says "The only L I took is when I lost proof".
Please React to Eminem “Gnat” Em The Goat Of Hip Hop👊🏽🐐🔥🎯💯
RIP PROOF
He’s rapping about his friend dying
hailie is Eminems daughter
Who’s Hailey? 🤨 *Instantly pauses video* May god have mercy on your soul …to answer your question its em’s daughter Who is untouchable
#RIPProof
This is one of the heaviest song and needs a handful of backstories to know whats really going on, have someone to recommend you to how to go through em
I had NO clue I was going to need some background info😂😭😭
At least I know for next time, to do that😁
React to mocking bird or Stan by eminem
Keep the Em reactions coming. Just know Em is famous for having an Insane dark sense of humor and he says some of the craziest shit you will ever hear on Songs aka some shock value but the Talent is undeniable.. Just appreciate the Talent and just know its just Music even tho he says some off the walls shit 😂. But yeah keep the Eminem reactions coming.. 8 mile road is my first suggestion for you to react to. Then you should do Lose yourself probably his most famous song ever or his biggest.... Till i collapse is another... Theirs just wayyyyyy too many songs his catalogue is Huge but keep the Em reactions coming and start with 8 mile road.
Thank you for the suggestions !
2pac
They make lyric videos for your issue
Yes! I just wanted to react to the music video first
But next time I’ll watch the lyric video :)
@@Hannahhh Eminem takes a bit to get used to A lot of hidden meanings (Entandre's) He also tends to be quick and the way he keeps within the song he kind of becomes the beat so its easy to get lost and not realize you missed things. But if you keep at it you will get your Eminem ears and start catching more of the bars and have a better appreciation for his absolute respect of the craft of MC'ing.
Gotta do the unedited songs... you lose alot without All the lyrics
Tupac
React to Tech N9ne he has a song with Eminem called Speedom
Proofs Kurt Kobain. Heartbreaking masterpiece 💯🆒💯❤💯🔥🔥💃💯🆒👆

So put subs on lol or listen to lyric vids 🤔
Hannah, y u no reply to comments anymore??? :(
I do!!
I only don’t reply on videos where I get a tonne of bad/mean comments because it really drains me
@@Hannahhh ❤️❤️❤️(♡°▽°♡)❤️❤️❤️
This is his story the person who was killed was his friend proof and hailey is his daughter
That wasn't the story proof wasn't dead yet obviously lol he's in the vid3o
Ohh i thought it was my bad haha
@@justjesse4204 bugs was killed he was closed to em so em decided to make a song for him and proof did the bugs part. Guess what after 1 year proof died the same way he played the character in this video 🥺thats why em dont perform this song 🥺🖤
@@shashanksingh911 yeah there are so many people need to do some research before posting shit lol
@@josephtewksbury6546 🙌🏻🥺🖤
Lol my 1st thought was "Tom Macdonald" but then i realized u meant who was the oldest u remember... I guess it would have to be NWA, wu tang, notorious b.i.g., or big daddy kane.... But just fyi the sample from this song was from "Toy Soldiers" by an artist called "Martika" back in the late 2000's its a nice song, u should check it out. U know i got u babe 😘
Do tupac he,s the goat
My personal opinion go back to the beginning and start from your reactions
You'll be better off reacting to the lyric versions. The Eminem music videos of songs released before 2009 or so are almost always censored even if it doesn't say in the title, idk why. Clean versions take the fun out of the song, especially with Eminem. Lyric videos are a much safer bet.
Nba youngboy
Use lyrical videos 🥺🖤
I think will have to!
Big L
Biggie
Tupac
Bugz
xxx tentation
DMX
Eazy E
Juice Wrld
Nipsey Hustle
Nate Dogg
The prodigy
Mac Miller
Mac Dre
R.i.p to all the greats we Lost
just eat a avocado you will be fine
skoooter
Great reaction but please never react to censored/clean versions of Eminem if you're doing more in the future, the clean/dirty versions of most of his tracks are like completely different songs
I had no clue this was censored until I saw people’s comments! Hahaha
Because Eminem is not 69 lol
Wasn't the best song to start with when u know nothing about em
But I didn’t know what the song was going to be about so how was I meant to know I shouldn’t start with it...
@@Hannahhh a poll or something? Regardless now u got the comments to direct u to better songs so you'll get to know his music better
Your first video that I didn't like lol you definitely need subtitles and some more knowledge of EM
Maybe do some research before you make the videos, but you not knowing certain things is what makes reaction videos interesting
Don't feel bad about not being amazed by Eminem. The dude is overrated as fuck.
Try Immortal Technique or Jedi Mind Tricks.
Don't react to clean version of songs
This was the clean version?
Eminem
