- I think I might have stumbled across my first recognizable double entendre! This was such an incredible song!!! The lyrics, vocals, background music, track, ALL of it was incredible!!!
My favorite little detail from this song is the "I've been driving around your side of this town for like 9 frickin hours and 45 minutes now". At the time it was released, that was the run time of his entire discography at that point, meaning Matthew was listening to all of eminem's music.
I would describe myself as a Stan, and I didn’t even know this… thanks
Is that including unrealesed stuff like straight from the vault, straight from the lab 1and 2?
Wow, never knew that
@@JPH3 i don't know for sure but I'm pretty sure its just his solo studio albums. otherwise it gets tricky cause would bad meets evil count? d12? and then if you go further what about all the features that he was a huge part of? Again, I am not a reliable source, its just my guess haha
@@bobbyshores i looked on genius and it was just talking about his studio albums
Seriously man, I don’t know anyone who has thought about this as a double entendres of slim and ‘Em and it totally fits 100%. This is a perfect example of why I love this channel. Great job! You should be proud of this one for real!
Thanks Bryan!!
I think in that final verse he lays out that "Mathew (stans lil bro) is symbolic of Slim Shady not knowing what he had before it was gone".
This song is about Mathews pointing view ( stans little brother)
@@dylanstrom8182 nailed it
🤯
I appreciate your actually taking the time to break things down as much as possible. Some Other reactors seem to just listen but not really listen keep it up brother!
Thanks Nathan!
helped me also break it down too having his take on things. its a clever song off an album ive never listened to the title of the album itself makes you understand the song more if you reflect on the songs from his first Marshal mathers LP. it has references to a few songs in it. mainly the big hits on that album
You might want to listen to Criminal by eminem as it has the same agenda as this song but is far better to understand
ironically criminal is from the first Marshal Mathers LP
@@dobster1985 criminal is the first Eminem song I ever listened to way back when, love him and now my teens are Eminem fans
“9 frickin hours and 45 min now” was the exact time of his discography since he started
Mind blown.
@Michael Kiely correct. Thanks
The self reflection and insight into himself it took to create this masterpiece is beyond words.
That last verse always gives me chills man. One of the most self aware moments Eminem has put out on record.
Also I have to say, witnessing your evolution from having a negative opinion about hip hop/rap to appreciating the nuances in the art; is pretty freaking awesome.
Thanks Jared. Lesson learned...
I'd like to see footage of your disdain for rap looool
The last verse is one of the greatest verses I’ve ever heard, one of my favourites.
If you are looking at impact, and just how it feels, I can't think of anything that can touch it.
@@niero4201 as far as impact, nothing touches his early years. But skillfully, the last verse very well may stand alone.
The fact is, when Em first came out… the Slim Shady LP (listen to that, btw) he was ANGRY. He was trying to rise in an area of music that white people didn’t do well in. When he created Slim Shady, that is what made him who he was. Slim Shady was his demon. He was all the anger, the struggle, the poverty, the boos, the drugs, the addiction, the abuse, the hate. THEN!!! The music media was categorizing him with POP, of all things. Imagine, My Name Is, being in the same chart at Backstreet Boys, *NSYNC, Britney Spears, Christina Aguilera… he was disgusted. So, Slim Shady targeted them and the industry, caused controversy. Even Politicians wanted a piece of him. Then Proof died. That destroyed him and he almost died. When he came back, he wanted to kill Slim Shady. He wasn’t really sure how to go about it, but as he worked the 12 Steps… which if you pay attention to his albums from Relapse on, you can hear the steps being worked and moving him forward. He even went to see his dad. I believe he went to his funeral, as well. Bruce Mathers lived in Fort Wayne, where I am from. The city knew when he died. Em hasn’t been real public, he does talk about it though.
Just to let you know of some songs “bad husband”-Eminem “beautiful pain”-Eminem “changes”-tupac “hellrazor”-tupac “space bound”-Eminem “lighters”-bad meets evil “good guy”-Eminem “ coffin” Jessie Reyes “robbery”-juice wrld “wishing well” juice wrld “no role modelz”-j cole. These are just some songs that are really good,that I think you may enjoy.
I can't remember is lighters technically a bruno mars track or is he a feature?
Bad husband by Eminem is a must 🙏🏻
I agree! I suggested bad husband.
Absolute fire songs!
@@jordanlee5594 Its from the BME EP by Eminem & Royce (AKA BME).
I love how you're starting to pick up on some of his crazy double and triple entendres. It's been an honest pleasure watching you become a fan of my biggest influence in music and life. Em has changed so many lives, its really cool seeing the perspective of someone from a generation that came before me! (Milennial here)
I also love how happy you are with yourself when you say "bar" it makes me smile every time 🤣🤣
lol, thanks so much!
I LOVE that you are catching the genius of his bars. Amazing work Larry. He never made a real video for this song sadly. This is why I can listen to Eminem song's for years and still catch things I didn't pick up before. His lyrics are so amazing. A little tip, if the video isn't from Eminem's official youtube channel "EminemMusic" than it is most likely a fan made video. He has all of his videos on his channel.
Lyrical lemonade also has a couple of official Eminem music videos that Eminem's channel doesn't have
There’s also some reuploads of some songs where people edit in the explicit version
@@EpicWarrior131 I did not know that, thanks.
What makes this channel so great for me is the fact you show your emotions through your face. It’s like a roller coaster it keeps changing and I love it. Also the fact you listen intently to the lyrics and try to digest every word. It’s refreshing to see
Thanks RS!!!
This is the most beautiful reaction i’ve ever seen. Hands down. Makes me go back to the early 2000’s when i found his music. Thank you so much for this experience!
Wow, thanks AT. I appreciate your kind words more than you know
I have so much respect for the last verse because it shows how aware eminem is of his surroundings and his impact. I wish this song had a music video because the way the last verse is setup is so amazing as well. Right as the car falls off the bridge (same way stan ends up killing himself), eminem raps from the perspective of people who he has offended and done wrong to. Also taking into consideration how this was released 13 years after Stan this came out in 2013 and Eminem has been rapping since the late 80’s but his mainstream career started in 1999 but his first taste of the limelight was in 1997 after the Release of his EP called The Slim Shady EP even tho his first album was in 1996 titled Infinite but crazy this was released in 2013 on the MMLP2 (one of his career highs), and him still trying to capture that same type of success as he once had while struggling with pressures from people who indirectly want him to put his pen down just shows his dedication and obsession with this craft. Its something so many artists who reach the top and then start to lose popularity struggle with and i think the way eminem describes his battle with not wanting to put the pen down is genius.✍🏽🐐🔥🎯💯
Unfortunately, this was the last album that was good
The albums that followed were no longer good and he is now politically correct to the point where it is absurd, because Political Correctness was always what he was always fighting against.
I love just how in awe you are at the last verse, I’m certain everyone had the same experience on first listen. Bad Guy is probably top 5 Eminem songs, potentially even my favourite. There’s so much meaning behind it and words can’t describe how incredible it is to listen, goosebumps every single time!!
17:06
The Bronco hat line was a reference to stan. “And heres an autograph for your brother, I wrote it on a starter cap” Stans brother is giving back the hat Em gave him
19:20
Stans brother is Mathew Mitchell, Stan is Stan Mitchell. The initials are possibly indicating Mathew being Marshall (same initials both fit) and Slim being in the trunk fitting your double entendre.
22:31
He said “This is for him and Frank Ocean,(hope you can swim good),now say you hate homos again” because Frank Ocean is a homosexual man. Im assuming because of the language slim used in his first albums, he referenced it with this character.
“Beat switch” is one of the elements of hip hop. Like in this song, artists use this technique to represent the change of the song’s scenery. It is definitely one of the things you wanna pay attention to, as you dig deeper into this genre. I enjoy your content so much.
love that element! It's so very creative.
WOW!! Excited to watch this surprise drop. I’ll follow your advice and check out Aurora’s music too!
A few notes:
-This is not an official music video
-The guy in the background is Mr. Porter, one of Eminem’s closest friends who helped produce his first album, «Infinite», in addition to some of his songs like «Yah Yah» from the album «Music To Be Murdered By». He also took over as Eminem’s hype man after Proof died.
-One extra part of the «reap what you sow» line is that he follows it up with «nitwit» (knit, as in sowing/knitting).
-The last verse of the song won verse of the decade for the 2010s
I didn’t know it won verse of the decade that’s crazy but well deserved
i mean wasn’t it verse of the decade to southpawer or whatever the name is ? like a group extremely bias towards eminem ? like all they talk about is eminem. bc i don’t think there was an actual verse of the decade award or anything lmao
I dont think it won the "verse of decade". Can you give source?
check the official eminem youtube channel for the songs, if it's not there, get any lyric video so you can keep it up with the lyrics) (=
forget fanmade videoclips, they compile images from everywhere and end up making a mess with the story.
I found one article that said it was the "Eminem" verse of the decade, but this wasn't an official award or anything.
I love the verse though, I feel like my music can't be loud enough when this verse hits.
The last verse is him admitting that Stan and Matthew are symbols for his downfall, fans turning on him.
What a phenomenal reaction I'm so impressed at your ability to catch doubles as opposed to when you first started it's an insane improvement 👏 love your reactions and your insight and how you are able to seemingly instantly grasp the core reasons as to why songs like this and just Em himself are such works of art.
Thanks so much!
you're one of my favorite channels right now, keep it up Larry!
Thanks Cusa!
That last verse never fails to make ever hair stand up. Every time. It’s a masterpiece.
Amazing reaction video as always!!
Keep em coming!! ❤️❤️
The words this man put to the page in that finale took serious, almost clinical, introspection, to a depth that most people would be terrified to go. It's just jawdropping every time I hear it. Also, viewing the story as told by Slim Shady in Matthew's place is a brilliant read.
That 3rd verse won verse of the decade for hip hop. 2010-2019
The self reflection & 2nd or 3rd person creativity, especially being Stan 2, was pure art..
Fyi, I don't think there was a actual award just some fan made vote
@@absbica31 your right. I thought he won verse of the yr, from a non fan thing but regardless most of that voting ish don't mean anything
4th
@@PaulWinters328 my bad, meant last verse.
Lmao verse of the decade according to who? It's one of my top 10 favorite Eminem verses, but who gave an award for this verse? Some guy on UA-cam? Get real. Also, Stan 2? What are you kids talking about? It isn't about Stan.
You absolutely nailed this one , I’ve been listening to Eminem for 20 years and I didn’t pick up the Double entendre of Marshal and Slim , Great work man much respect
Thanks so much!
This is essentially one of those tracks you have to listen to multiple times to catch everything which is awesome because I love the replay-ability but it's basically about Mathew (Stan's younger brother) coming to take revenge on Eminem (Eminem killed by M&M Mathew Mitchell, I even have your initials) this is a hard song to comprehend unless you understand a lot of the references and nuances of past lyrics. I completely respect you taking the time to actually try to break down everthing in order to get a better picture but the more you listen, the more you will discover.
I love how exited you get about the simple bars. Just wait till your able to catch the triples/quads, all the wordplay, schemes and flows!
His genius will keep surprising you!
I've said it before and I'll say it again every time I hear this song. It's a masterpiece.
New subscriber as of today, 2 years later and WOW I never thought of that double and you are absolutely right. This song was just a foreshadowing of what his “last” album was going to be. “The death of Slim Shady”. Well done sir.
Thanks so much and welcome to the channel!
I love so much how u get the double and i can literally feel your mind geting blown xDD doubles/tripples and wordplay is why we love em so much
if that last part of the song doesnt give you chills, nothing will, few artist can make you feel the way this man does!
YES!! SO glad someone else sees it that way. When I first heard it I thought it was him coming for him. The “good guy” being forced to be the bad guy because the bad guy has had control for too long. If you’ve ever been through real personal change of leaving behind negative qualities you can relate.
FYI-the verse where he talks about a "bronco hat" Em is referring to the hat that he signed in the song "Stan" where he "wrote an autograph for your brother, I wrote it on a Starter cap". Love the videos Great job!
I always thought it was weird he would autograph a cap gun...
Just another song to prove why he’s the greatest
If you put all the pieces of the puzzle together, Slim died.
This was at a point where Em wanted to shelve his alternate persona.
The last verse is Slim trying to convince Em of all the things Slim gave to Marshall. Slim is who kick started Em's career with The Slim Shady LP.
After this album, Slim came out quite rarely.
Slim died in 2005 with When I'm gone, came back with MMLP 2, even Eminem said that for this album, then Revival Slim wasn't so present, but Kamikaze and Music to be murdered by... Slim is pretty much non-stop, at least for a moment, if not the whole song xd
@Michael Kiely my bad, you're right, i just forgot about it when i wrote the comment...
That last verse is incredible for the insight he has into himself, which I'll bet is double as tough as a celebrity.
"Keep tapping the glass lightly and it starts a crescendo" reminded me of "There's a sound at the window, then he struck you a crescendo Annie" (Smooth Criminal)
This song always gives me goosebumps.
It feels so raw and like I feel close to em just by hearing it.
Had similar inner monologues, and this song feels REAL.
Stan’s brother is Matthew. The bronco hat is the starter cap Eminem signed for Stan to give to his little brother (reference from the song Stan). That was the show they were at waiting outside in the cold for him.
MMLP 2 is such an underrated album. This as an opening track is just fkin beautiful. The contrast between the sort of unsatisfactory instrumental, almost horror like story of Matthew's hunt for EM, and the crescendo at the end is just amazing. All the references in the first 3 verses and double entedres. And then finally the big crescendo at the end where he stipulates all his shortcomings and insecurities for everyone to see. This fourth verse is probably my favorite Eminem verse of all time. Then to top it of he ends the album with Evil Twin and in the literal last the sentence of the album saying: We are the same, b*tch; referring to Em and Slim. Basically admitting to himself and everyone else, that Slim isn't just a character that possesses him but that it is him or rather his bad side. Really showing his flaws as a human being.
I consider MMLP 2 a classic now.
Mishearing that line as "now say you hate homies again" is the most wholesome and adorable thing I've seen in any of these videos. That is what I'll hear from now on. Thank you.
lol!
Damn I never thought about bad guy being a double entendres about slim shady but it does fit in a lot of the song. Great catch man!!
I hope someone has pointed out that there is actually Eminem, Slim Shady AND Marshall Mathers. He has 3 different personalities, Em being his superstar life, slim being his drug addict life and marshall being his true self.
Hey man, just a quick info: The guy standing next to Eminem at some points is his friend "Mr. Porter". He was a member of the Rap-Crew D12 which Eminem was also a part of. He is now his "background Singer" or more like a backup for any live events he raps. He basically finishes bars (says the last 1-2 Words) so that Eminem can take a breath throughout the long live shows.
Every reaction show will get very large multiples with Eminem vs anybody else! He's the GOAT for sure. I'll cheak out a few. The thing for me is others just don't have the same depth so it's really basic for the most part. That said thanks for what you do, really injoy hearing others views on Eminem. He really means alot to me so thank you. Also love that you got flipped into being a STAN so fast
Great job with this video! I would recommend checking out the lyrics when you have the free time, Stan and Matthew are both metaphors and the artistry these two songs have is incredible. I was very surprised at the lack of reception and praise Bad Guy got when Stan is considered one of the greatest Hip-Hop tracks of all time.
On another note, Eminem is my favorite artist and I grew up living a similar childhood, so the way I was able to relate to him was what kept me going through many scenarios. With that being said, I think the first reaction I actually saw from you was Monsters by James Blunt. Funny how things come together, huh? You’re absolutely right about the other artists you react to. You work hard to give me a reaction to an artist I love and I should respect the additional work you do to introduce others. I’m very well-rounded in the music I listen to, so I’m not unfamiliar with your other reactions, but I will take the time out to support you whenever you react to something, regardless of the artist.
I make my comments far too long and I know you don’t always have the time to read each one, but I am curious to know if you were able to make a not of the four songs I requested in a previous video. Ironically, Bad Guy was one of them!
Anyways, you have my full support going forward instead of just selective viewing. You’re an incredibly genuine person and I look forward to getting to know you more through all your videos. Thanks for the content!
Thanks for these comments, FD!!!
One of the lines is "I feel like I've been waiting for this moment all my life."
He referenced In The Air Tonight in Stan also. I wonder if Phil Collins' song provided some inspiration for the setting of this one.
This is my favorite song of all time. It is full of references to Eminem's musical life. The most impressive thing is the last verse, in this, Eminem speaks to himself, reproaching himself for everything he has done throughout his career. The Marshall Mathers LP was Em's best selling album, which is "Stan", "Bad guy" is on The Marshall Mathers LP2, the second part of that album 13 years apart, so it mentions both sides of the coin: Mathew telling him that it's a strategy for people to buy it, and the other side, at the end he says that he is trying to recapture the magic that he had, making the last chapter. For me, the most underrated song of Eminem
The weird thing about this song is that it's about Matthew, who vows revenge against Eminem and breaks into his house to kill him, this song came out in 2013, and in 2020, a fan named Matthew actually broke into Eminem's house to kill him, and even confronted Eminem, but Eminem was able to talk him down until his security arrived.
And yes this is a fan-made video. But it's all Matthew, until the finale when the beat switches, then it's Slim talking to Em about his "failing" career and everything he said coming back to haunt him.
excuse me what ? whats your source to this story Ive never heard of before?
@@Joel00000 yeah its true, I dunno about talking him down but yeah a guy named Mathew broke into his house with intention to kill Em
Eminem actually said in a QnA that he considered getting Dido back to do the chorus of Bad Guy, but decided against it worrying that it would give away the meaning of the song too easily.
The way Larry listens to these tracks is crazy. It reminds me exactly how I listened to Em's albums hearing it for the first time. Pure poetry acknowledged.
Thanks for the comments, Jordy!
It’s about Stan’s brother, it’s about Marshall and Slim, it’s about his relationship with Hip Hop.
It’s an incredible song and really showcases the depth of Em’s writing, skill with the pen and how introspective he’s willing to get in his art.
This is my favorite reaction channel because you can tell these are genuine reactions
Thanks so much, Twig!!
You're evolving as a rap listener - you caught that sewing machine line easily. He also said "sitch" which sounds like "stitch"
And knit wit
@@MrD.. fuuuuuuck. I've listened to this four times and I never caught on to that.
This is my favorite Em album and this is the best song on the album.
You should definitely react to "The Way I Am"- Eminem.
It's considered his best song my many & the best song on Marshall Mathers LP, a classic album. The cadence, rhymescheme & Flow on this song is unmatched and in there, he addressed all the negative media attention he's been receiving and how he's used as an escape goat from parents & the media for their own problems.
The uncensored version along with the video is this one: ua-cam.com/video/m8E3Dh-gfhM/v-deo.html
Please!
The voice changes in his songs represent character switches, you will notice it in every song after realising that
I feel like I went through an EMOTIONAL BLENDER! Im a BIG eminem fan BUT…I have never heard this song until your reaction. (Because you know I love your authentic reaction no matter what video)…BUT HOLY COW. I was about to say this song is not my “cup of tea” until the crescendo like he mentioned in the middle and it got better, and better, and better, and better and better! Whoa!! Im confused and happy at the same time!
Hey Chris I'm becoming a Stan of yours lol great reaction I love how amazed you look when you hear em go off keep up the good work
Thanks so much BK!!!
A little note: the choppier flows in the first verses are intentionally done that way, remember they're from Matthew's perspective (Stan's lil brother) and he's not a rapper so it's not going to be super smooth, still he had some bars too:)
And yes, the video is fan made, just to keep in mind if it's not on Eminem's official channel, it's fan made
You did it awesome! Thanks haha glad you got to this gem! My favorite song from Eminem
Eminem is my favorite artist and it's not even close. He has it all. He's songs can make you smile, cry and surprise you at the same time. Love his passion, intensity and refusal to give up. You can hear it in his voice. This song is great and is just one of his many masterpieces.
Totally 👍 100%
And make you dry your eyes with the same rhyme 😆
i'm mostly a rock/metal guy, but eminem is one of those artists i always loved. i tend to forget about him for a while, then rediscover songs like this and it blows me away everytime.
Yes Larry, loved the reaction and the fact you got the double meaning of him talking to himself before the last verse was impressive
There's an earlier example of the demon voice used in Relapse, a darker and more gory album, on the song 'My darling', it shows his relationship with shady during his addiction. It's in reference to the origins of shady; a demon who was in em's/Marshall's mirror, he punched the mirror and shady possessed Marshall. It was only a sort of promotional video that wasn't released but you can see the image on the cover of 'the slim shady ep'.
My darling: ua-cam.com/video/5H64ICvblXY/v-deo.html
I've listened to this song for hundreds of times, i've always loved it. I've never understood the hidden message until today.
This is the death of Shady.
You stopping to replay, praise, then explain lyrics is great.
The very final quiet verse was Marshall. It’s not just Eminem & Slim Shady. Marshall is the guy you see in recent interviews or fawning over Al Michaels at Super Bowl. Nothing but humble.
Listened to this song countless times, and never really thought of it as an em/shady double, but once you mentioned it, thats all I could hear throughout the song - great work!
And yes, the ending sequence is just so epic; its among his best work.
Edit: this reaction and breakdown was so good I had to come back and watch it again - it's actually what this song deserves.
When MM LP2 came out, for months I would squeeze in this song, Rhyme or Reason, and Rap God on my approx 20 minutes drive to work. I may have to start that morning ritual back up!
I’m so glad that I wasn’t the only one to recommend this song to you! I look forward to your Eminem stuff so much. Your reactions are so emotionally raw and it’s beautiful ❤️
Great reaction! It’s debatable that the last verse is Em’s best verse he’s wrote. I agree with that statement. So much passion in his voice. IMO the best song he wrote is “My Darling”. There’s no video on it. If you have time react to it it’s amazing! I don’t want to give away the songs message or anything
Thank you for doing this. 🥰 that last part gives me chills every time.
Don't feel fazed on the large gap in views with Eminem vs other artists. The same thing happens to hip-hop channels when they put up an Eminem video. Its just the draw that he has. Yes, it is definitely not an official video.
The Bronco hat is a reference to Stan when Em finally got the letters he says he sent an autographed cap to Stan’s brother as an apology.
Eminem - My Darling, again, fighting his inner demons trying to bring Shady back!!!
"So I sneak vengefully and treat your bedroom window as I reached my full potential, I peeked (peaked)" What do you do when you reach your full potential? You peak.
The penmanship..
Incredible
Amazing reaction as always love how into the music you get and especially now how you really try and get into the lyrics, but this was from the perspective of Mathew Mitchell (Stans little brother) up until the last verse but I mean music is subjective so if you feel like that's what you hear then that's what you hear. Also yes this was a fan made video and there isn't an official music video for this song unfortunately but imo it really doesn't need one em's storytelling especially in this song gives such vivid imagery so it would have been cool to see a lyrics video instead also the last verse was em's conscience rapping also the hook applies to both Mathew and Em especially taking in the last verse into consideration. Also its in my personal top 3 verses of his ever the other 2 being his verse on best friend and medicine man and I rank them jn no particular order I just can't decide lol (I also have the verse he does in his chlorospetic remix just below them) Also fun fact this verse got awarded verse of the decade and yeah have a good rest of your day/night when/if you read this and I'll be sure to check some of the other songs you mentioned at the beginning of the video since I do exclusively listen to rap and I'll admit I've only really checked out your eminem reactions so I might aswell get out of ky comfort zones and give them a try just like you did lol
Nice i have the same list lol wow
@@Serrotonin yh em has so many great verses but those 3 are just in a while other universe
I'll never forget the feeling that came over me when I heard this the first time. I was awestruck after I realized it was a Stan 2, then when the beat changes up and he shows the breadth of perspective about him personally...just sensational!
As lyrical as Eminem his, he has his "Best verses" where it's just lyrical insanity, double entendre after double, flow chopping etc.
But then you have this masterpiece, this final verse of this song. The depth and story telling and perspective he gives is UNREAL, it's so fucking poetic and passionate it's so overwhelming and never fails to give me chills. A real look into the life of Eminem and the emotions he's almost scarred himself with for due to his past. He needed to get this off his chest some how and so badly, and the way he did it with this verse from the perspective of his conscience (or lack of)
This man is magical, and it will be a very very sad day when he leaves this world, after writing this I have decided I am getting a tattoo of him ASAP.
He changed my life, and CARRIED my childhood, teenage years and even adult years. He needs a rose, I'm giving him one.
That last verse is so powerful.
His voice followed with the deep dark Slim shady voice.
It's the way he paints his picture .
This is what goes on in his mind and he's great at delivering it.
this is one of my favorite eminem tracks. love this reaction man, keep up the good work!
Double entendres are when he takes two words or group of words put in his bars that sound the same but different meanings.
Like in another song when he dissed MGK he said "You had me IN YOUR SCOPE and you grazed me, but one call to INTERSCOPE and your Swayze." "In your scope" (down the barrel of a rifle) and "Interscope" was Interscope Records which is MGK's record label. THATS what a double entendre is and he does this ALOT in his lyrics of every song. He's the best to do it.
No, that's not what double entendre is. You're confusing double entendres with homophones.
@@_nopestr That's not a good example I guess but it's when a word or group of words are used in 2 or even 3 different meanings. Look it up. All I'm saying is that he doesn't know what double entendre means because he's using it completely wrong in his break down of the video. I think he's very confused to what the meaning is was my point.
@@angelicajoy1 No. You've mentioned double entendres, yet you gave an example of a homophone. It's you who should 'look it up'.
Nah, Eminem is not the best with entendres. Lupe Fiasco is
Eminem request: guts over fear. It's my favorite em song. It's so inspirational.
Jelly roll: dead man walking, it's souther rock/rap hybrid thing. It's just good
Chris Stapleton: Tennessee whiskey if you know you know
Colter wall: the devil wears a suit and tie. Your new favorite country singer from Saskatchewan
A few different genres to pick from.
25 to life … now! Love the work
Love the reactions as usual, but to the people making the recommendations: Please STOP giving away the plot twists of the songs! Bad Guy starts off as what would appear to be yet another one of Marshall's dissings to Kim and Kim's lover (Or whatever you'd call it), only to reveal it was actually Matthew singing and plotting to avenge his brother.
Hope the next few ones come without spoilers.
big facts
agreed. it is unfortunate that you knew the meaning beforehand.
Better than not getting it at all tho
I agree completely, this song is 100% better when you don't know the twist before hand
Agreed. I remember the first time I heard this song and got to the end and had to play it again right away with a whole different perspective
Scoping this channel out now. I love Eminem, he really got me through my childhood. This is actually my favorite Em song and rarely have found reactions to it, so I'm very happy to catch this.
You hardly missed a beat in this song, very impressive. A word of advice, it might be worth having the lyrics displayed on a phone or a tablet (perhaps even a printout). Em has a way of speaking certain words with a specific enunciation, and it can add another layer to the song.
An example is in Not Afraid.
- You said you was KING, you lied through your TEETH. For that, fuck your FEELINGS (fillings), instead of getting CROWNED (crowns can be for heads or teeth) you're getting CAPPED (Caps for teeth, baseball cap, and also Capped as in shot/assassination of a King).
Your understanding of his lyrics have developed very quickly, you're clearly a very clever dude.
Either last year or the year before, a guy named Matthew broke into Eminems house, go Google the articles. Which is crazy considering that literally happens in the song, guy named Matthew and all, and that this song came out in 2013.
YES! Bad guy is so intricate. MMLP2 is my favorite album
He ends it off saying “…. I may be arrested today!!” Then just nods his head in acceptance.
Yuuhp, can’t play it loud enough to hear it all all at once.
Eminem - Legacy
You can also listen to this as Em talking to the entire rap game and what he's been through.
This is still the older Em stuff so he hasn't really dove deep into the double/triple entendre's until his more recent albums. Kamikaze and Music to Be Murdered By Side A & B are full of triple/quadruple entendres that will blow your mind even years later. But it's great you're analyzing this.
He did Darkness tho, which the whole song was a big double entendre. Awesome
@@jaboy8603 I saw that but his son kind of ruined it for him telling him that it has to do with the Las Vegas massacre with a double meaning so he didn’t end up catching the actual flip on the words themselves. Just the overall meaning.
The bronco hat is another reference to stan. Stan and Matthew waited for eminem in Denver. Em felt bad so he sent Stan a signed Starter cap for his brother Matthew.
Arguably my favorite Eminem song and, to me, his best verse ever (the very last one on this song). SO excited to watch this, one of my new favorite reactors!
Edit: I also want to echo that opening statement about checking out other non-Eminem reactions. Wholeheartedly agree! Go watch this man's other reactions, they're all brilliant and immensely fun to watch!
Thanks Kyle!!!
@@larryshair You're quite welcome my good sir, and thank YOU for all the great content and work that you put in for these reactions!
a little easter egg for you when he quotes "chauvinist pig drove in this big lincoln town car" thats a reference to an old deep cut verse of ems where it follows with something like "went over a bridge jumped out dove in a ditch" and in the song thats when he goes over the bridge, thats why you hear em laugh in the background as the reference.
I really like the reactions. There all Great 🤙Keep it up.
I'm sitting her astonished that after about 10 years I never noticed that Track is as much a Marshall vs Slim take as it is Matthew Mitchell seeking revenge.
Hey man! I'm from Brazil and I'm having a great time with your reactions, learning a lot with them too, and it would really help me if you could put some subtitles or find a version with them, I have no idea if that's hard to find so it is ok if you don't, just wanna say I'm loving the reactions!🇧🇷🇧🇷
The last verse always makes me think of Lord of The Rings where Gandalf is trying to save Theodin from Saruman. As Gandalf is trying to force Saruman out of Theodins mind, an evil voice says something the effect of "If I go, he dies".
