In 2001, Mariah Carey met up with Eminem to discuss the possibility of a collaboration on her 2002 Charmbracelet. Eminem has said that after the meeting, the two dated for six months, a claim that Mariah has always denied. In 2002, Em first mentioned Mariah in the song. Superman, off The Eminem Show, Eminem rapped: “What you tryin’ to be, my new wife? What you Mariah? Fly through twice.” Also on The Eminem Show "When The Music Stops", where Eminem rapped: “I done came way too far in this game to turn and walk away, and not say what I got to say. What the fuck you take me for a joke? You smokin crack? Before I do that, I’d beg Mariah to take me back.” But in a 2002 Larry King Live interview, Mariah Carey denied she was with Marshall Mathers. “I hung out with him, I spoke to him on the phone,” she told Larry King. “I think I was probably with him a total of four times. And I don’t consider that dating somebody.” The same year, she told Maxim that there was no “sexual relationship” between her and Marshall. Then in 2003, Mariah responded with her own diss track of sorts. On her song Clown, Carey said: “You should’ve never intimated we were lovers When you know very well we never even touched each other.” In 2005, during Eminem’s Anger Management Tour, audio was played that was voicemails from Mariah Carey. “Why won’t you see me? Why won’t you call me?” In 2006 Eminem’s beef with Mariah Carey continued when he rapped about her Jimmy Crack Corn. “Your mind’s on us like mine’s on Mariah And y’all are just like her, you’re all fucking liars. But I’ll just keep fucking you like I fucked her. Right in the ass with KY yes sir,” Eminem said on The Re-Up compilation track. In 2009, Slim Shady released Bagpipes from Baghdad that reignited the Em’s bitterness towards Mariah after she got married to Nick Cannon in 2008. “Nick Cannon, I wish you luck with the fucking whore,” Eminem said on the Relapse track. Mariah responded by releasing her song titled Obsessed with the lyrics: “Why are you so obsessed with me? Lying that you’re sexing me?” The music video featured a stalker in a very Eminem-like outfit. Eminem really laid into Mariah Carey in his scathing 2009 track The Warning, where he threatens to leak intimate voicemails and pictures from their past relationship.
He's Marshall Mathers when he sings very personal stuff, Eminem when being confrontational, political, dissing, flexing etc and Slim Shady when there's no boundaries, limits or filters just raw, crazy and daring. Simply don't give a fuck! At least from my perspective the time I've been actively listening to his music.
Runway is an old school word for the "landing" or hallway. I only know because my dad who's fairly old still uses this word and in the music video the girl is in the hallway. I don't think this song is one where you have to read between the lines as he's quite brutal and no filter in his lyrics.
sorry for spam;) Can you please react to Yelawolf - to whom it may concern? It fits perfectly between the Em reactions. He explains the whole Slumerican catalog and how the got signed to Shady records.
