Subscribe for more content like this!

what about “She been a golddigger since she was a minor/miner”

"I'm an alien that's why I write till the page is outta space"

"I sound like a broken record every time I break a record" -Eminem on "Lucky You"

Space Bound: "Love is evil, spell it backwards i'll show ya [E-V-O-L]" The Ringer: "I must be possessed, like an evil spell, I'm E-V-I-L (get it? Evil? Spell?)"

Modern day Eminem is too complex with his word play. Like, back in the day, I didn't need to read the lyrics to understand what he was saying. Now, I have to read the lyrics sometimes to know what he was saying, because of his complex word pattern. I hate it but that's just his genius capabilities.

Eminem never fell of... people got to dumb to understand his lyricism.

His best in my opinion “you’ll never see Em Icy but as cold as I get on the MIC” - The Ringer

"I'll let you see my dark side, but like a mic check you got one too/one, two"

His newest “ like a evil spell” I am E V I L! And then literally spelled the word. That was great.

Rap God - You're witnessin' a massacre (mass occur) Like you're watching a church gathering take place, lookin' boy... So many more. Good video

The first thing that comes to my head with Eminem's word play, don't ask me why, is "Plus I show up with a coat fresher than wet paint" from Beserk. That line is legendary

Most of this is new Eminem by the way. The Eminem people say has fell off.

Notice how this all happened after he got sober? Yeah, and people say new Eminem suck.

Rap God: "But for me to rap like a computer must be on my genes (jeans), i got a laptop in my back pocket"

Eminem to MGK: "This bar is over your head so you better have arms if you're gonna pull up."

Groundhog day - "Pretending to be blind Superman 'cause i had no Supervision."

These ones are kinda cool too imo: Untouchable: "You better be strapped with a Derringer Or be “capped in America” like Steve Rogers" (Captain America) The Hills Remix: "Just the effects of each other, but we gon' film 'Cause I will want your ex to see" (Ecstasy)

I was the G, the O A T Once I was played in rotation At every radio station They said I'm lyrically amazing

" I'm swimmin' in that Egyptian river, 'cause I'm in denial / in the Nile " Eminem - Need Me

You missed the crazy wordplay in Baby from MMLP2 where he said "Let's see who's the king of this English Lit, let your middle fingers slip...' English lit let your English literature I find that one personally crazy

One if my favorites is The thumb tack that you slept on son, now here I go screaming attack/a tack like I just stepped on one.

And then MGK's world play: "his beard is weird. " Lol

"This love trianlge left us in a wreck, tangled/rectangle" River

What about "I'm going blind, I don't see my legs, I keep on falling down No wonder you can't stand me" from Wicked Ways?

This love triangle/try angle left us in a rectangle/wreck, tangled. - River

"Switch blade with a little switch to switch blades, switch from a 6 to a 16 inch blade, shits like a samurai sword a sensei"

“My paper turns into a hand grenade when i pull the pin/pen out”

My favorite Eminem bar: Lucky You ft. Joyner Lucas “I’ve got a couple of mansions/mentions Still I don’t have any manners/manors”

Every punchline in “313” by em blows every single punchline in this video out the water, listen if you never have, it’s off the album “infinite”

My all time favorite is his verse in Lucky you I got a couple of mansions/ mentions, still I don't have any manners/ manors!!! Can't get over how genius he is ❤

"If you're still looking for smoke, I already gave you an L I'd rather just see you in hell but I should get puff on the joint (Diddy) Wait, run it back, I said gave you an L, in hell Puff on the joint, I am the blunt you avoid…" This is just insane, read it a few times to get them all.

One of favorite wordplays from Em is form the song Asshole (LP2) He spits: “Thinkin' you're one of a kind Like you got some platinum vagina You're a train wreck, I got a one-track mind Shorty, you're fine, but you sort of remind me of a 49er ‘Cause you been a gold digger since you was a minor” He mentions women are gold diggers since they were miners, comparing to actual gold digger minors. Pretty clever.

The "Window pain / windowpane" from 'Love the way you lie' will always be a favorite for me.

“To be blunt/blunt I’m rolling indo/in dough” -think about it 😦

the ringer is full of these: "Invite him in/in vitamin like a one-a-day" and "my beef is more media journalist...i said my beef is more meaty, a journalist can get a mouth full of flesh"

Back when there was 2 Dr.Dre's , that's a paradox/pair of Docs. (For those that don't know; In he 90s you had the show Yo!Mtv raps with 1 show host named Dr.Dre). Brilliant wordplay!

you forgot “and by the time you’re reign (rain) is over you’ll hardly be miss (mist)” - stepping stones 🔥🔥

"Alcoholic too, plus I'm on lean (lean angle but then lean as in the drink) like the Tower of Pisa (Pizza) Top it off I'm on mushrooms, so fuck all of you" one of my fav Eminem lines

"We have nothin' in common, poodle I'm a Doberman, pinch ya/pinscher self in the arm and pay homage pupil" such a underrated line because it goes so unnoticed , its the little details that have the big impact

Eminem is GOAT

Stepping stones : You can already sense the climate is startin' to shift To these kids you no longer exist Went from rainin/runing ' cats and dogs in this bitch/beach To tiny drops full of drips And by the time your reign/rain/run is over, you'll hardly be missed/mist The song is full of this!

Here's my favs. "As sure as a mole is blind, in my mind I'm still underground as a groundhog, and I'm a go for mine (gopher mine) like a whole furrow just tryin' a dig up some gold and diamonds and coal to find!"~ Medicine Man - Eminem "Buy you a bag of fritos? I wouldn't let you eat the fucking chip on my shoulder. If you were bleach and I was hair, I wouldn't dye for ya. Tryina pull five bucks from me is like triyna pull five molars. You get your eyes swole up I'm on my straight grizzly. So why would I buy you a gay ass teddy bear, bitch, you're already bi-polar!"~ That's All She Wrote - Eminem

Forgot to add Eminem’s sway in the morning freestyle... Something, “wrecking ball, you would think I think highly of Miley, the way I back hand her/ Back Hannah, Excuse my French Montana but I am worried bout nuttin”

The "be capped in america like steve rogers" was also fire

it would take 40 men for me to suffer “a defeat” (80 feet)

These bars are so clever and this is only the beginning of em's genius

if you're gonna Roll up with your (gang!) you're gon' need a arsenal 'Cause this bar is over your head So you better have arms if you're gonna pull up

"And since birth I've been cursed with this curse to just curse" "Get this f*cking audio off my Audi yo, adiós"

"But you lied again, now you get to watch her leave out the window guess that's why the call it window pane (pain). " Love the way you lie. Not a fave but I like it.

The king of dad jokes right here, lol

Video was very well constructed with the beat playing before the lyrics and also great pics, ready for part two.

"Went from rainin' cats and dogs in this bitch To tiny drops full of drips And by the time your reign(rain) is over, you'll hardly be missed(mist)" Stepping Stone, Kamikaze.

The line in rap god that how something like "we have nothing in common poodle I'm a Doberman pinch yourself"

“Got no time for haters in this bitch, or toleration for this shit, but like medication, the dedication and the time it takes to do this shit, reminds me of how an overcrowded hospital will get, what I mean is maybe I have more patients than I’m able to admit.” -Higher

The pedigree one good

Ems newest material is more for fans of pure lyricism. It's definitely more technical and complex and not everybody likes having to try so hard to catch/understand it. I like it cause I like puzzles and mysteries and his new(ish) songs are kind of like that where you can't just listen to it you gotta figure it out and I get a little rush when I do, but I understand why some people don't like it and just want to bump their head and/or relate/feel a song.

“My filets are smoking weed, yeah f***** the stakes (steaks) are high” - Cinderella Man

The best entendre ever was when em said, You said you was king, you lied through your teeth. For that, fuck you feelings, instead of getting crowned your getting capped.” It starts with him saying “You lied through your teeth. For that fuck your feelings.” Feelings can also be heard as fillings related to teeth. He continues to say “Instead of getting crowned your getting capped.” This relates to getting dental crowns and caps. It also relates to kinds wearing crowns, but this fake king wears a regular cap. Crowned is also slang for getting beat up, which isn’t a big enough punishment, so this king gets capped, slang for getting shot. And capped is also slang for a lie, which is what this false king did. Eminem did all of this in 2 bars. This man is incredible

"Lookin for us? We over here (hear), like we're eavesdroppin'" - Eminem, Sway in the Morning

I like how this whole comment section is nothing by Eminem wordplay. Lol GOAT

Evil twin- “and as crazy as I am I’m much tamer than him and I’m NUTS then again who the fuck wants a plain Eminem/m&m”

Forget a chorus, his metaphors are so complex it takes six minutes to get applause.

There's no rapper write Eminem's word play / rhymes , slim Shady is G.O.A.T

"no rhymes in it, reload in no time, let insults fly every 60 seconds that go by, so you know I mean it" he's like *no rhymes in it* but he's rhyming the entire fucking line!!

Listen garden tool, dont make me introduce you to my power tool, you know the fucking drill

At 1:14, it could also be “despite her man” making it a triple

Do a part 2

Even his "bad" wordplay is good

Pedigree line is a double entendre, pedigree is a brand of dog food. And the ancestory of animals. Definition of wordplay

These are cool but not his best, ever since relapse the dude started to overflow with word play. Check out the whole All I Think About Song just that one alone can be a list like this

“You said you were king, you lied through your TEETH, for that fuck your FILLINGS/FEELINGS, instead of getting CROWNED your getting CAPPED!”

Top tier word play

notice how most of it is modern Eminem, he could whoop his younger self's ass easily

My favourite from no love "I'm standing on my monopoly board, that means I'm on top of my game and it don't stop till hip don't hop anyway"

And then....Music to be Murdered By debuted. The quadruple entendre was born.

Man you made me look at his lyrics in different way

Cinderella man - " My filet is smoking weed. yea homie, the steaks ( stakes) are high

Per cassette that I ate. 🖒 missed that one.

This video was made way before the song, and it’s not his best, but on Killshot, “As long as I’m Shady he’s gon’ have to live in my shadow” is one of my favorites

Can't believe this is from 6 YEARS ago. Imagine if you put whole Killshot lyrics in here or latest albums because he gets more technical now

Great vid

I have to be stomped on by 40 men to suffer a defeat. 40 men = 80 feet = a defeat

Crazy my fav rapper can do this like 1000s times in one song😂😂😂

damn em’s beyond genius

He's a genius

Love this compilation! Especially how broad the selection from albums is. Dope ♥️

Mindlowing.

How about from Revival - heat “Sorry if I'm being graphic But I'm stiff as a statue, you sat on a shelf I feel like I'ma bust, maybe I'm just ahead of myself”

the legend ...the top mc...

This is so lyrical

You forgot on "Lighters" he made such a nice wordplay with "I had a dream, I woke up, still king","The rap game's mine for the milking (MLking)" it wasn't on purpose though

Evil twin : I'm nuts, but then again who the fuck wants a plain eminem/ who the fuck wants a plain M&M ( I'm NUTS ) . That shit was Epic.

Should have continued the lines from Kings Never Die, he continues by saying "with this pent up/pinned up rage. Fucking amazing

Pull it surprise/ Pulitzer prize like Kendrick Lamar ~ @eminem

Thank you for posting this

‘In a closet having a panic attack cause I’m clostephobic’ -Shady XV

I'd have to be stomped by 40 men to suffer a defeat (80 feet)

EMINEM SO OBSESSED WITH LYRICAL SPIRITUAL MIRACLE

You won't ever see EM ICY but as cold as i get on the M.I.C
