This song is a perfect example of Eminem's greatness. He allows people into his life by being so open and using real peoples names and whatnot. It allows people to connect with him. It causes you to have an emotional tie to his music.
He says their names because he's telling his story. He's allowing himself to be vulnerable for us/his fans. He is a genius lyricist. The taking the bullets out of the gun line is referring to when he caught Kim (his ex-wife) with another man. He's not apologizing either. He's being sarcastic. You just have to keep listening to his music & then you'll learn. All of his bars have meaning. He is the GOAT & always will be for a reason.
“Remember when Ronnie died and you said you wished it was me?” His uncle Ronnie committed suicide in 1991, and Debbie told Marshall that she wished he had died instead of her brother.
@@waffles824 He also pulled a loaded gun on his own bodyguard at one point Hector. He took the bullets out bc he knew he woulda killed them if he didn't and he went there suspecting he was gonna find her in such a situation. The smart thinking was "I won't be able to control myself if I find her with a guy so I'm going to take the bullets out so I don't fucking ruin my life over some bitch." Smart. The fact is he still attacked a guy twice his size and maybe more people should take note. But you're an Eminem hater and only see the side of things that you think makes him look bad. Besides, I thought you're hating ass was done with this channel since "stans" ruined it yet here you are on another vid of theirs about an artist you hate. What does that say about you? Oh yeah, that's right, it's your public service. You're fucking pathetic. No, he didn't plan to kill them but that's also NOT what he said you idiot. So no, the story isn't bullshit. At all. There's nothing wrong with not wanting to kill someone and taking measures to help ensure you won't when pushed. That's the fucking point.
@@jennag3226 yeah, I can read, someone already posted that even more retarded sounding story. The dude basically went there to see his girl getting fucked by another guy. Hey also, learn how to write a paragraph...no wonder you are impressed by eminems shitty writing.
True. I was there with em. ME,Gary n em had to fight 30 niggaz and a couple of em niggaz got stabbed by me lol. Im from Detroit.@@darissssabanagiccc3589
He pistol whipped a bouncer when he saw him kissing Kim outside the club... He has a skit before the song "Soldier" about it and mentions the gun is empty... I also don't know if you caught it but he talks about being a victim of Munchausen syndrome, which basically means his mom made him feel sick just to get pills for her addiction...
@@Troublesome_96 "You full of shit too Guerra, that was a fist that hit you" but he also says "Pistol whipping, mother fuckin bouncers, 6'2" Hes brung it up multiple times with different explanations so I'm not sure either way.
@@keithlabeau8790 The pistol whipping lyrics could just be sarcasm and going with the story. Kinda like saying, "ok if that's what y'all wanna believe then that's fine too." Also, on say goodbye to hollywood he talks about how he dropped the gun to fist fight and his boy picked it up and tried to stash it. But really idk. If you ever meet him you can feel free to try and ask him.
Where's my snare? I have no snare in my headphones There you go Yeah Yo, yo Have you ever been hated or discriminated against? I have, I've been protested and demonstrated against Picket signs for my wicked rhymes, look at the times Sick as the mind of the motherfucking kid that's behind All this commotion emotions run deep as ocean's exploding Tempers flaring from parents just blow 'em off and keep going Not taking nothing from no one give 'em hell long as I'm breathing Keep kicking ass in the morning and taking names in the evening Leave 'em with a taste as sour as vinegar in they mouth See they can trigger me, but they'll never figure me out Look at me now, I bet ya probably sick of me now ain't you momma? I'mma make you look so ridiculous now I'm sorry momma! I never meant to hurt you! I never meant to make you cry, but tonight I'm cleaning out my closet (one more time) I said I'm sorry momma! I never meant to hurt you! I never meant to make you cry, but tonight I'm cleaning out my closet Ha! I got some skeletons in my closet And I don't know if no one knows it So before they thrown me inside my coffin and close it I'mma expose it, I'll take you back to '73 Before I ever had a multi-platinum selling CD I was a baby, maybe I was just a couple of months My faggot father must have had his panties up in a bunch 'Cause he split, I wonder if he even kissed me goodbye No I don't. On second thought I just fucking wished he would die I look at Hailie, and I couldn't picture leaving her side Even if I hated Kim, I grit my teeth and I'd try To make it work with her at least for Hailie's sake I maybe made some mistakes, but I'm only human But I'm man enough to face them today What I did was stupid, no doubt it was dumb But the smartest shit I did was take the bullets outta that gun 'Cause I'da killed him, shit I would've shot Kim and him both It's my life, I'd like to welcome y'all to "The Eminem Show" I'm sorry momma! I never meant to hurt you! I never meant to make you cry, but tonight I'm cleaning out my closet (one more time) I said I'm sorry momma! I never meant to hurt you! I never meant to make you cry, but tonight I'm cleaning out my closet Now I would never diss my own momma just to get recognition Take a second to listen for who you think this record is dissing But put yourself in my position, just try to envision Witnessing your momma popping prescription pills in the kitchen Bitching that someone's always going through her purse and shit's missing Going through public housing systems, victim of Munchhausen's Syndrome My whole life I was made to believe I was sick when I wasn't 'Til I grew up, now I blew up, it makes you sick to ya stomach Doesn't it? Wasn't it the reason you made that CD for me Ma? So you could try to justify the way you treated me Ma? But guess what? You're getting older now and it's cold when you're lonely And Nathan's growing up so quick he's gonna know that you're phony And Hailie's getting so big now, you should see her, she's beautiful But you'll never see her, she won't even be at your funeral! See what hurts me the most is you won't admit you was wrong Bitch do your song, keep telling yourself that you was a mom! But how dare you try to take what you didn't help me to get You selfish bitch, I hope you fucking burn in hell for this shit Remember when Ronnie died and you said you wished it was me? Well guess what, I am dead, dead to you as can be! I'm sorry momma! I never meant to hurt you! I never meant to make you cry, but tonight I'm cleaning out my closet (one more time) I said I'm sorry momma! I never meant to hurt you! I never meant to make you cry, but tonight I'm cleaning out my closet
eminem's best stuff will always be his early stuff (slim shady and marshall mathers LPs), his diss tracks that didn't get released on the main EPs (nail in the coffin, girls), and his horrorcore stuff (music box, stay wide awake).
Rappers are known to shout out family members, cousins, friends, fellow MCs and DJs on their tracks. I don't know exactly why, but they like giving shout outs to people close to them.
You guys heard of a bunch of teenagers from New Zealand called Alien Weaponry, they sing in Maori the native language of the indigenous people of New Zealand and metal, the infusion is Phenomenal. Their video for their song Kai Tangata is cinema quality and their other track "Ru Ana Te Whenua" is a must listen you won't be disappointed.
Did u guys notice the kitchen cleaner stuff his mom put in his cereal along with the off milk. His mom treated him like crap and made him believe he was sick when he wasnt among other things.
That made me giggle at the idea someone saying you were using a potato... idk when or what that term comes from ngl fwiw never have been able to figure out hwy unless its related to the potatoe song that was going around so to speak.. a few years ago idk if it still is or exists even fwiw but yeah ykwis.
agree. The issue with eminem reactions is that the commenters will just recommend eminem songs and "eminem core" artists like NF, Token, Logic, etc etc, without getting a full scope of what hip hop is.
OPC definitely agree love Eminem but his fan base is so strong most channels struggle to explore the rest of the culture because of the success these videos have, the comment section becomes flooded with only Eminem suggestions or rappers directly from his tree
You don't know what happen and why he did it, I think you have to read why he did this song. His mom was trying to get her 15 minutes of fame even made a song to pass as a victim and she shouldn't have because she had more skeletons in her closet... He tells the story about his mom in this song... listen to from the beginning, he says he is a victim of Munchhausen syndrome she used to keep him sick
This song was about the abuse his mom put him and his brother thorugh when they were kids.. And he apologizes cause this wasnt about hurting his mother, it was about just putting the truth out there.
He's talking about how she treated him when he was a kid he's apologizing because he has to get it off his chest and let the whole world know what kind of person she was
But think about that when its mud its seals together and after that you dont even see that someone was diggin there if the place was aal like that not grass anywere. Ps never done that ;-)
His mother had Munchausen bi- proxy she made him and his brother sick to get attention. He eventually testified against his mother in a court case stemming from her intentionally making them sick. As soon as he was even slightly financially stable he won custody of his brother
With artists like EMINEM, Hopsin, Kendrick Lamar, Joyner Lucas, etc the way that they talk about their lives , politics, and social commentary is known as Conscious Rap. It’s Rap with a message as opposed to this mumble rappers and SoundCloud rappers.
The reaction was awesome, you guys seem super sweet! Just to clear a couple of things up that you might've not known before: His mother abused him as a child, was a drug addict and had Munchhausen syndrome by proxy (which made her mix pills and stuff in his food to make him sick so she'd get pity points and attention for having a sick child). It got so bad that Em's little brother was taken away by child protective services when he was only eight. When Eminem got famous he spoke out about the shitty childhood his mother put him through and his mother made a cd (which was supposed to be a diss?) to stop him. It didn't work so his mother sued him for defamation (she wanted 10 million dollars from him) but she lost. Em got full custody of his little brother Nathan Kane and raised him, along with his biological daughter Hailie Jade and two adopted daughters (Alaina Marie, who is the daughter of Kim's twin sister and Whitney Lane who is Kim's daughter with another man).
Eminem *never really* disses subliminally, he will *almost always* say the individual in questions name - he's even gone to court over that very problem. But I love it! He never holds back from what he wants to say and if you stand in his way he'll diss you too lol.
no they dont. he has SO many better songs than that. you guys always recommend the worst shit lmao. yall had them literally reacting to eminems NEW shit before getting to his classics ... so stupid.
If im not wrong, Em got kim with another guy. So he would killed her and him if his gun had bullets. And if u guys can do the next song no censored. Listen to Bad meet Evil - Lighter, song with Em, Royce and Bruno Mars.
lol typical one minded guy ,, only hears what he wants to hear , u just feel how he is searching for a flaw in the song he loves that shit , too bad his girlfriend looks cool she knows whats shes talking about and she generaly funny
Eminem is actually so ashamed of this song he never performs it live anymore. There is a song (Headlights) where he basically says hes sorry for this song and that he forgives everything his mother did against him.
You need to listen to his song called “Kim” of his album “the Marshall Mathers LP” I think you two find it highly interesting, it’s shocking to say the lest.
Don't know if this interests you but there's a RU-vid channel called Unbashedly Reggie and he breaks down Em songs to a science and does color coded rhyme schemes and everything... I mention this cause you mentioned the poetry side of Em and this really highlights this and how crazy Em is with it... It would be awesome if you guys reacted to a song and then Reggie's breakdown... Either way I highly recommend y'all check his channel out... A good song to do is "Till I Collapse"
AWE MAN I'M ONLY A FEW SECONDS IN AND CANNOT HEAR IT. AND THIS IS MY FAVORITE SONG BY EMINEM. I KNOW EVERY WORD AND BLAST IT IN MY CAR. IT JUST HITS HOME....VERY CLOSE. ALMOST EVERY WORD. EXCEPT FOR MY FATHER SPLITTING.

Oh lord ...ray Romano tries to be to funny sometimes lmao man doesn’t listen they rappers twist words together and punchlines wordplay etc y’all should go back to the slim shady days !!
React to No Apologies by Eminem. Great song. Make it uncut versions from now on unless you guys are opposed to explicit lyrics. Otherwise, it's great seeing some more vids from you guys. As far as Em's songs being more personal, he does have a ton of personal songs. As I mentioned before, it's his therapy (which he has mentioned many times in interviews). It's why his fans can relate to him bc a lot of the stuff he has went through are what his fans have also went through. He does rap about other topics tho (see Mosh or Guilty Conscience as a couple of examples of this).
He is talking to his mother because she had Munchausen's syndrome by proxy. He was the proxy... Basically she made him sick/injured for her own gratification... to get attention. He talks about it during the song.
