1. "Cause you must be on base if you thinkin' you can touch my car" - a reference to Diddy blowing up Kid Cudi's car, but also a reference to Pac and Biggie drive-by shootings. 2. Press Play came out in 2006, the same year Proof died. It also came out on October 17th - Eminem's birthday. 3. In 2005 Diddy changed his stage name from P. Diddy to just Diddy and Press Play was the first album under this name. He left out the P from his name, hence the line "...and leave out a P, did he/Diddy". Edit: Also, Press Play is two P's, which ties into Eminem's wordplay with the word rapper.
Here’s an easter egg from Em’s verse. The verse starts with the ‘ay’ (A) rhymes. After that the rhymes are ‘e’. Listen to the emphasis on the B. Then the whole alliteration with the C’s. Em’s out here teaching ABC’s 😂😂 also the alphabet soup bar🔥🔥
I also wonder if you're liable to catch strays from the second you press play is also a shot At P Diddy bcuz P diddy has an album called press play in 2006 🤐🤯🤣
Not just ABC, he mentioned 2 D's, Did he and Keefe D. 2 D's = DD (Diddy). Then he went on to words sounding like and with emphasis on E. Sixt(EE)ns touching, (E)nglish muffin. Ali(EE)na Hutchins. The Re(EE)aper's coming. Even when he says the word Drink, he has that EE annunciation to continue the E Emphasis. Literal Alphabet soup ABCDE. I'll add an F and a G to it. (F)ucking (G)enius.
I love this reaction so much. It's so good to see reactors really taking their time to understand the art. I hate rushed reactions... We can see the reactors didn't get half of the bars because they were rushing to finish the video. I hope for more reactions like this. English isn't my first language, so Eminem is constantly beating me up with his lyrics... So, I really appreciate you guys explaining bar for bar. 🤍
Eminem's setups are just NASTY. And theres usually multiple setups. And then he drops the punchline that ties is all together. And just when you're reeling from that he's halfway through another setup! 💀 "How did i miss that?!" Because aliens. I mean Eminem.
RIGHT?!?!?!?!?! I legit needed a moment to digest that Diddy bar because of the way he set that up that fucking bar!!! I didn't even catch the Keefe D part until a lot later... This MF is out of his mind .
Finally a podcast that appreciates lyrics I been so tired of these other podcast just hating on a service level. Thankyou for this shit. Y’all good at this shit having me realizing I’m not dissecting half this stuff
The car is also a reference to Diddy allegedly blowing up Kid Cudi’s car for dating Cassie after their breakup. Em puts it in there as a double meaning with base for stick ball but also saying you must be on base if you think you’ll do that to my car.
FINALLY, someone who caught tbe crack and base correlation. That bar scheme is a tripple at the least and I feel like we all likely miss so many of these in his songs. If I could do thiis, I'd think I was a God too!
Is it wrong that I’m 57 and can’t get enough of this? I feel like I’m meant to be watching true crime, but instead I’m feeling like a killer, I’m brought back to life from a very ordinary world and I’m holding on to this feeling for dear life, I earned this. Yep I’m not going anywhere. Thank you Eminem.
You can both! I’m 56 and legit right now watching this reaction and have true crime on my tv in the background 😂Plus don’t let the younger ones fool ya. Em’s only 4 years younger than me so right in my wheelhouse.
You not wrong.If you 57 then you remember the golden age of Hip Hop and you can truly appreciate the evolution rapping.Eminem took Hip Hop from where it was to something that is new but nostalgic at the same time.
Born in 1952 so I’m older than rock’n roll. Cut my teeth on the Beatles and Stones and Cream and CSN&Y. Moved on to Led Zeppelin and Rush and Yes. Sang and played in six rock and jazz bands before morphing into an opera singer. Taught at music conservatories for 30 years before retiring last year. Just a bit of background before I say that took a deep dive into rap and hip hop during the Covid lockdowns and I’ve never come for air. Started with Ren and then exploded. I’m always glad to read comments from people over 50 on the reactor channels. I believe in embracing all musical genres and then spending time with whatever grabs you. Music makes life worth living! ❤
Gotta study every line. You can bypass a line and on that line miss a specific word. Glad yall could see this actually happen on the fly and live , there was no prep.
@@loyaltyabovelovetlc nah homie, knowing Red Top and even after Red Top told him it took almost 4 hours to do 6 songs, he should’ve been ready to stop at every punchline, but even the hard punchlines he was gonna play through it, but RT told him to stop multiple times. It was all good AR understood after a while.
The Hallyna Hutchins/Alec Baldwin bar gets even better when you know that Alec Baldwin was on trial this week because he claims he didn't pull the trigger, but the experts claim the gun couldn't be fired without pulling the trigger. That's why Em says " Like Alec Baldwin, what I mean is bucking you down"...
When a hand is spread wide, the span from the tip of the thumb to the tip of the pinkie is about 9 inches; from the tip of the thumb to the tip of the index finger, around 6 inches.
Slim Shady lp, Marshal Matters lp Then Eminem show. His top 3 albums are literally in order. lol Slim Shady lp is so slept on but it was supernatural hearing that album back in the day and in my opinion his best album.
he spells RAPER...as in a person who rapes someone...a then gets an SA as in Sexual Assault designation from the court ....but then he plays it off by saying did he leave out P in spelling rapper did He ...as in P Diddy....its a nuclear bar..fire...genuius
24:24 ahh when eses, essays and SA’s all come together XD Ese comes from the sound for S in Spanish. It is more often than not linked to Southsiders in the West Coast. As an Argentine I know for a fact we don’t use the term and neither do my fellow Hispanic people here haha. So yeah haha…Argentines tend to use “Che” and “boludo” (we use “curse words” as terms of affection😂)
Good video guys, ALTHOUGH...... lol home dude was calling timeout too much but I can't blame him. There was parts where I felt like he was reaching, then I just decided to do the research myself and look through lyrics and genius... he's right :| fucking incredible. I swear he was reaching.. Except that one Obey Trice bar. I dunno, what I looked up didn't make the connection.
@@loyaltyabovelovetlc you DO have a lot of catches that most reactors don't hear their first time around. so props on that ^^ taught me a thing or 2.. Check this out tho. The Stickball line where the car was home "base"- 1: Drugs 2: the term for being fundamentally mistaken 3: the street game- a car being home base or a base 4: Diddy blowing up Kid Cudi's car- but em saying you must be smoking crack to touch his car (to diddy tho) 5: the literal sound of bass. but he used the audio of bass when he said base- does this count or what is that called ? that's fucking nuts either way XD
@@loyaltyabovelovetlc nah I get it- sometimes it's the will of wonder regarding what he means, this is how people should read into certain artists due to them being crazy with the pen.
I king of missed it still I actually listened again when I watched the reaction. He said don’t test me like an essay. A essay is not a test lol, it’s just a. Paper you writes
@@loyaltyabovelovetlcIn England we have to write essays in English Literature and English Language tests so hes right. Almost all the essays I've written in my life have been tests.
Bro, i just caught this!! Nobody touching these 16s after he goes nuts on the previous 16, but Hailey was 16 when MGK posted the tweat saying she was hot as fuck!!! Like its a f'n call back!
Red top reactions just got a new subscriber, as soon as you said you like Revival and you're lyrics first beats second, I'm 100% the same. Revival was a great album but definitely had some skippable songs
Look his best albums all depend on the persona.. relapse was genius and Marshall Mathers lp was actually more slim but named mm.. revival meh.. Eminem show fire and I saw his concert before he didn’t tour anymore at America west arena in phx az before they changed that venue like 3 times since but the death of slim shady to me every song is fire not one bad song this is mmlp2 or even sslp2
I love when reactors run it back as much as anyone else… but this guy redtop is over the top faraout man let it play out a bit more so annoying honestly
