    The crowned/capped line is actually a triple. His last album was going to be "King Mathers". He's referenced crowns/king in a few songs, but he's saying he's killing off that old persona and attitude with this album. King Mathers was capped (killed).

    "That last Relapse cd was ehh, perhaps I ran them accents into the ground" Relapse (2009) was his first album since getting sober after spending a few years without putting music out. Lyrically it is very clever and complex especially when it comes to multisyllabic rhyme schemes and horror style themes. But he uses accents in most of the songs, that allowed him to make words rhyme that wouldn't actually rhyme but some people thought they were annoying.

You're catching things a lot of people don't. I applaud you for your understanding and appreciation of this style of music. Continue your work good sir. And the "think you're getting crowded but capped line has another meaning, don't know if it's been pointed out. Another layer to it is, in the gang, music, any career, you think you're getting a promotion but you get fired. Because getting capped is slang for being murdered. So you think life is going good and better then something comes along and destroys or ends it. But you gotta battle on to overcome.

    I hope Eminem sees your reactions to his music one day. I think it would make him happy to see someone go from not really liking rap as a genre in general, to giving him a chance and developing such an appreciation for Em’s skills and who he is as a person. He’s my favourite rapper, and I think my favourite musical artist in general. Nobody else comes to mind when I try to think of an artist that has gotten me to feel so many emotions and whose music has genuinely helped me.

    I listened to this, and the whole Recovery album, on repeat after breaking away from an abusive relationship. I come back to his music when I am going through a hard time. It’s amazing how much it helps. I don’t know if he knows how much affect he has on people but, it is monumental! Love that you’re loving and respecting him so much! IMO no words can describe how amazing he is! ❤

    Thank you for your wonderful reactions Thank you for every moment and your enthusiasm every time you hear this special person songs, I am honored to be one of your followers from the other side for the Earth ^_^.

Been watching all your reaction videos over the past 6 months and I am so proud of you for opening your mind to the Hi Hop GOATS . You have also opened my mind to some of the other artists you have covered like NF, I had never heard of him before but love him now. Eminem will always be the GOAT though!

    Just FYI, Eminem might be sayign that Relapse was meh here. But it's truly an iconic work of art to most of the fans. Yes, the themes are gruesome but it only radiates creativity. We see movies like Final Destination, SAW, Texas Chainsaw Massacre and consider them great and not spit on the screen writers. There shouldn't be this double standards for music. And Relapse is not just gore/horror themes. It is a rhyming cookbook.

    This is Em’s most important song in modern day as of 2010-2022 is “Not Afraid” this song introduced us to what Em was becoming he evolved and became better than what he was not just as a Hip Hop Artist/Rapper but overall as a human being Em is a better man than he was Em inspires me till this day and when Not Afraid came out I felt a sense of maturity from Em frfr Sobriety was the best thing to happen to Em’s life Em could’ve went out sad but he rose from those ashes and is back to being the man he was always chasing and is continuing to do what he loves and that’s having a stable life while continue doing his passion which is Hip Hop which he’s The Goat Of👊🏽🐐🙌🏽✨🎯💯(Also everytime I listen to Not Afraid I feel motivated and joyful yet emotional cause Em put his soul into this track and the choir was a nice touch as well to this track and Em can sing check out songs like She Loves Me,In Too Deep,Higher,Twisted etc. and the message at the beginning was mainly him speaking about his period of drug-addict depression, which has inspired his rebirth/sobriety and now Em is 12 or 13 years of being sober)
