      When leftists were allowed to be edgy at anyone's expense. World has flipped. I blame it on social media. I'm still a lefty though because I believe in social programs. Wouldn't be where I'm at today without some help. Grew up in the projects. Leftists are also still the most anti-war but sad thing is the democrat politicians are still pro unnecessary wars. Same with Republicans. All do the bidding for who donates the most to their party and not the people, it doesn't matter the party in that case. Sh*t sucks how controlled the government is by their richest donors. 🙃

      Jay Chou is another musician that has that effect on people. He's a composer/singer/rapper from Taiwan who made his first album in 2000 and is still going strong 24 years later. You should definitely check out his albums. He's got 15 albums now and he's composed every song he's released. A song I would recommend as an introduction to his style would be "Wounds Of War". It has a dark melody with classical piano, fast rapping, and haunting R&B vocals. He's a musical genius. He's not an amazing lyricist like Eminem but he's an amazing composer. So I guess he could be more compared to Dr. Dre. But his flows are amazing like Em's. His songs are in Mandarin but the translations are easy to find online.

    In the end of the song "When I'm Gone", Eminem says "grab the gun on the ground, cock it, put it to my brain, scream 'Die shady' and pop it." That's Shady's death. Which would mean the title is specifically a reference to the many times Houdini was reported to have died in one of his performances, and the fact that the magician was not in fact dead.

    I'm 55 years old and my sons grew up with Eminem. As a parent of impressionable boys I was mortified and absolutely banned his music, image, etc from the house...I wasn't naive and knew they were still listening to his music outside of the home. My son recently sent me a song by Yelawolf that he wanted me to listen to. I was intrigued. With headphones on and my phone tilted in the window sill above my kitchen sink while doing the dishes, I listened (I have my headphones on about 12/7 these days). Immediately after, it played the colab of YelaWolf and Eminem Bestfriend, which I absolutely loved. Then your breakdown video came up! I was HOOKED! To your breakdown videos, to YelaWolf and to Eminem. I had NO IDEA the absolute GENUIS I was missing out on. I now understand why Eminem has lasted so long, why so many latched onto his music and lyrical mastery! Thank you for opening this genre up to a soon-to-be (not 55 yet) old lady! I'm now obsessed with his work (and others). I had no idea! Mind Blown! 🙇‍♀🎼

      Ya know...Now that you mention it, I wouldn't be surprised if that's the theme of The Death of Slim Shady. How he's matured, gotten sober, and stopped being so insensitive since his younger days, but now it seems like no matter what he does, people dismiss his modern stuff and say he's not as good as his old Slim Shady era material, while also making it clear that his old offensive stuff just wouldn't fly these days. So it might very well be about the conflict between the modern, grown up Eminem and the more immature and deliberately provocative Slim Shady, and him trying to make some kind of peace with it.

      Em's been in a darker place for a good while and that makes different kinds of content than early Eminem. Artists are humans too, and go through stages, something people tend to forget. I wasn't as big a fan of songs like 3AM as I was ones like Lose It or Till I Collapse, but it was still Em and he did have good ones during this time. It's good to see him back to having fun with projects, cause that's when humans are (usually) at their best, free and not being weighed down. Even more so because it seems like he's shouting out the people that have rocked with him since he hit it big

    Edit 2: Because some of you aren’t firing on all cylinders; I knew where the sample came from. Before Knox, I watched 3 other reactions that didn’t mention it. Since the band is special to me, I was waiting for a reactor to point it out, which Knox did. Therefore, I praised him. I don’t care if YOU got it, I’m not watching your videos. I don’t care if some other reactors pointed it out, I haven’t seen anyone else mention it.
