I remember when Knight wasn't that familiar with Em in the beginning of his channel and now hes one of the best reaction breakdowns of hip hop lyricists and one of the best that break down Eminems lyrics.. Growth!

I really like it that you go back and re-react to your previous reactions. Keep your self accountable, show your own growth musically, with reactions, and give yourself a second shot at the content for anyone who missed it when you were a smaller channel.

This is one of those songs that's better the second time around, don't be too harsh on your first video, most people listening to it the first time, fans included would've thought it was about his relationship with Kim. It's way more powerful when you realise the real object of the story and his rocky relationship with Hip-hop and how under-appreciated he feels.

I LOVE the 2.0 reactions. Stevie roasting himself is HILARIOUS and I'm here for it all 😂😂😂. So cool to see the progression. 💙

No need to be embarrassed. It's actually super dope and a sign of strength that you can go back and critique yourself or admit to mistakes or change your opinion, etc. Smart people do shit like that

Your reactions are the best. We need to make an interview between Em and Stevie HAPPEN!

This is kind of why I would love to see Stevie do 2.0 from MTBMB album. It would be fun to see how much more he would get out from the songs on that album since it was his first touch to Em's music. His ears are on so different level now with Em than what they were on those first reactions. I hope that it will happen.

Just wanna say that I love and respect you man from the bottom of my heart,i pray that you achieve everything in your life as long as I'm alive, I'm with you Stevie, keep it up my big brother May God bless you and your family always.

I’ve literally started the Em journey with you. I knew the big hits I’d hear on the radio but he was never on my playlists. I thought stans were corny etc. Now I’m actually aware and your spot on, it hits so different! I’m glad I found your channel and Em. Been rocking with ya since 39ksubs! Never stop grinding!

I think he works hard to try and reach everyone in one way or another. And he’s good at it. 🌹

Recovery is an incredible album! It deserves more credit when people pass it off as “poppy”. I can play the album all the way through without skipping a track. 💪

I was with you my man, started listening to Em because of you. Thought nothing of him because I’m not a particular hip hop fan but you really made me love him and really need your breakdowns😅

Totally hilarious watching you dissect yourself. Keep that up. And yes, this is one of his deepest songs.

I’ve definitely experienced that feeling Steve! It was “2pac -me and my girlfriend” I listened to it for YEARS thinking it was about a relationship with a female…. Nope it’s about his gun. When I realized that… holy shit, the song became 100X better to me.

Listening to a lot of Em’s music without knowing the background is like tuning into a great TV Drama (Breaking Bad, Game Of Thrones, Sopranos, etc.) at like season 3 episode 5, not know what is going on, and then after it’s over say it was just alright. Edit: although even if you don’t know what’s going on, to not recognize the rhyming ability, flow, cadence, etc. is insane to me.

50 needs to make a tv show about Ems life. That shit could fun for 10 seasons without getting boring. And 50 would do his amazing story justice because they are so close.

I'm really glad you see just how great EMINEM really is. Grow that grind big fella, I'm with ya all day and all the way

I see Em in the notification I click!

I remember watching your first reaction thinking how off you were but really appreciate you admitting your mistakes. Respect my man ✊

Watching this channel on Eminem has given me so much more respect of Eminem's music. Seeing the true skills of a master of hip hop. And Steve knows how to make it a good time listening and learning these meanings behind the words of Eminem.

Eminem set up this track in a way for people to relate to it in their relationships and at the same time portray how he feels the hip hop game has treated him after investing so much of his life to it. This song is an absolute masterpiece. Glad you were able to see that and change your view of this song. Respect!

It's only after you hear it all the way through the first time you realize that it's about his relationship with hip hop. Until then this song puts you in a place where you relate it to a personal experience. That's the genius of the song

This whole reacting to your reaction thing is the best. Respect for looking back and respect for growing

I’ve always been an Eminem fan and I fell for the trap with the song until the very end. It’s so brilliant and clever, that’s the whole point. Don’t be embarrassed, that just means he did what he intended.

Cinderella man is my favorite song of his it's fucking fire and the message

Watching Stevie for so long and see this change from when he first started listening and doing his reactions to now is crazy how much he’s grown. Like it’s insane to literally watch what a lot of us Eminem fans experienced when listening and growing to understand his music and his ideas. And that’s what makes reactions videos so great, getting to relive our first reactions through someone else. And the fact that Stevie is definitely one of the best if not thheeeeee best at the breakdowns Keep it up and stay on it ❤️👍🏼

I forgot about this record, god damn its still just as good as the first time i heard it YEARS ago

I love how unapologetically real you are, even when analyzing yourself. You're definitely proud man, but you seem to be stronger than you are proud. In excess, pride can become a severe weakness, so a truly strong person avoids the pitfalls of pride.

This album came out when i was in HS... time flies!

Stevie, your evolution the past few years has been crazy. Glad I been here to witness it.

Stevie roasting himself is top tier content "that's CAP!" 🤣

Exactly. You gotta watch his evolution from bottom to top and understand his story through his music to truly appreciate everything. He’s BRILLIANT. GOAT for artists for me for ALL TIME.

Em gives depth in his lyrics. People also have to realize he wasn't famous till he found Dre. He had more years of poverty than most rappers. People also have to realize he is loved in the community that didn't and still doesn't accept him. This is what actually makes his accomplishments as a lyrists and artists so amazing. Em is for anyone that has needed help in life. That had a rough upbringing. Like myself many have an understanding of how he feels and why he says what he says.

Been nice watching you evolve.

The beautiful thing about Lyricists and Eminem specifically is you weren’t wrong last time. Or this time. There is so many avenues you can take this man. Hell, going through some personal stuff myself right now has me listening to this song as myself talking to myself in the mirror. Your breakdowns are the best out there but don’t hate on your old self. The emotion evoked in these songs will hit every person differently and that’s why he is the greatest. Keep doing you Stevie.

Watching Stevie become a bigger and bigger Stan over time is one of the most satisfying parts of this channel

I like the way he worded this song because it helps empower anyone who feels like they dont have their own life, whether a woman controlled their life or an addiction of some sort, literally he writes his songs in a beautiful way. He writes it with his own meaning but in way that people can use it in multiple situations. This dude is the epitome of pure art. Coming from someone who knows every word of almost every Eminem song. This dude is the only person who can do shitt like that.

I just watched a reaction video of a guy reacting to his own reaction video... and enjoyed every second of it.

You reacting to your past self is fn Great!!! It's like a time machine. Give this guy his 1M subs people! Stevie is that big brother that toughens you up! Good shit Stevie!

This is probably one of my fav reactions of yours Stevie. Thanks man

I really enjoyed this and appreciate your growth and appreciation for Em and your craft.❤️❤️❤️

I like the way you did a double split review from your previous videos reaction in how you grew from your own understanding and critique of Eminem. Love the way you dissect his verses and music and being honest about it. Keep it up!

Now you're reacting to yourself from our prospective. I love it. You're seeing what we saw when you originally reacted.

Crazy to see how much you changed. And I just started watching you. Mad respect

Sigh yes that old StevieKnight with Red hat. Loved your Em reactions from outside perspective 👌🏼

*It's just simply amazing how (Stevie) ears have grown in the past 2 or 3yrs.*

Man i remember when this came out, i had a 3 hour argument with my homies brother that was going through a break up. He swore it was a break-up song about a girl. We listened to this back to back so many times of him trying to explain the lyrics to me. All the while, I knew exactly what this song was about. I still call him 25 to life when I see him. He hates it; I think it's hilarious. He was so determined to prove his point. Took him 2 relationships to finally admit he was wrong. Lmfao.

Top 25 Eminem song of all time for me

I love when you do this man !

25 to life is indeed hard....can relate to any relationship whether with sports ..ur wife ...hip hop ....

I love that you are reflecting yourself! Thats growth

So much respect to you for putting a video up of a past reaction. Killer channel✌️

One of my favorite tracks.

2.0s are my fave. Made respect to anyone who can call themselves out.

I love this. I was here for original reaction and this new one. Support always. ❤

Bro this is so cool to go back and compare what you know now to what you thought then. Need more of these. Keep doing you

Your growth as a content creator has been awesome to watch, your original video was great but you showcasing how much you have grown since then to now and even watch your original video with us shows how much better you have become when you were already awesome starting out, good stuff bro

Really enjoyed watching you react to yourself instead of a review. And many of us didn’t put it all together before the give away line. You can see how far you’ve come along since your earlier reactions!

One of my favs nice coverage. The plot twist at the end is typical Em. Just like he did on "Never Love Again"

Why he's one of my favorite artists period. He creates so many easter egg bars/doubles that you just won't catch unless you know his story and his catalog of songs. So many references. It's like he makes a great music period for the lazy listener, but he doesn't just stop there..... he creates another level for the fans who know what's up. It's quite incredible. Em doesn't do love songs ... And if he does, it's usually a double or he'd just clownin.

Continuing to be one of the best reactors out there. 25 to Life is easily one of my favorite Em songs, and while it’s a bop on face value, it does get SO much better once you know the metaphor of the entire song. And don’t worry about your old video. I think most people miss it at first.

You should do a "all i think about 2.0" by Eminem😂🤣

One of the greatest reactions I’ve ever seen. Analyzing your old self. Freaking kool

I love when u go back and react to your past reactions they are always funny how u roast your self and to see how far u have gone doin these reactions

Stevie out here studying his only competition. Keep it up my man

Stevie has slowly became a Stan i wonder if he will ever state he is or where he stands with Em.

It's jokes watching Stevie letting loose mimeing the lyrics being a proper em fan. This how we all where growing up in our bedrooms, in the shower, getting older driving our cars singing our hearts out to Eminem songs and even at work with the headphones on. You really can now say you felt how we felt growing up with the goat as our main go-to for music. Its Been sick watching Stevie on this journey he has taken. I found you watching the game and emm recent beef and ended up going back two+ years and watching videos one by now and now finally back at your recent shit. Your the best breakdown reactions KZfaqr. Plus love the energy and open minded ness you give. I appreciate you bro keep on doing you

Watching you on this journey has been great!

crazy to see the growth in your Eminem knowledge

I got all of Em’s catalogue as well so I know what you mean when you say you don’t know how many people won’t feel that feeling if reflecting on your self from the beginning, to looking back through the songs with the knowledge you know now and comparing how you felt then/now thats dope!!

I fucking love this video bc its what weve been through which is watching ems career and now heres this dude and we can see him viewing ems whole career like we were.and now its the end of the arc and he contemplates it all on this song

reviewing past reviews after catching up on the music is a good idea, i like that

Proud ya stevie! I’ve been following since you had only 10k and seeing your growth has been awesome. 🔥

Lol really appreciate you going back and laughing at yourself. This is is why I watch Stevie Knight

This was always one of my favorite Em songs growing up I'm glad you revisited it! Keep up the dope reactions you've been killing it!

LOL, love the progression and also how you told yourself on the old reaction... NOPE !!!

ive watched this journey and its been epic !

One of my favourite Em tracks 👌

I have been rockin with you for years. I love seeing how far you have come and how willing you have been to learn. Most people aren't even open to learning. Let alone becoming a black belt in this shit.

Stevie I know how you feeling on this, I've had bars go over my head all my life and when you realize what they mean down the line that song really changes what it means to you. As we get older we slow down and actually listen to and appreciate the art instead of just grooving with the vibe. We all growing up with you man.

It's so fun watching you reacting to em....you really became a stan..lol

OMG... this gave me the chills .... I watched that reaction and I was with you on the same page... and now here we are... whole new people both of us! Man we grew!

Watching stevie react to stevie is the best lmao. Been watching all the 2.0's again just so I can see the growth. Hell I've grown alot too, appreciate you doing all these reactions for me man!

I love watching Stevie, watching Stevie

I love when you rewatch yourself before you knew what Eminem was. So classic. Love ya Stevie

Finally we’re getting closer to you’re never over 😭🙏🏾

The experience you feel with HipHop and your personal progression I feel as an artist. I look back to a year ago and see the progression, its the same with your reactions. Keep going, STEVIE NIGHT A GOAT OF REACTIONS. Love from the UK

cool to see you can laugh at yourself. You're breakdowns have helped me to appreciate how many levels a lot of Em's lyrics work on.

Have been waiting for this song reaction

Stevie laughing and about to beat himself is so funny 😅😅

Yes Siri you’re right it is dope as fuck for us to see your growth of the channel from how you were back then and how you are now keep going fam love the content

Love the reaction to the reaction!!! 🔥🔥

Your reactions got me through worst of Pandemic. You’re so real and have grown so much. ❤️

😂😂😂 Love how you can laugh at yourself! Humble and it looks good on you!! ❤️❤️❤️

Glad someone did a re reaction to a great song that deserved it .thank you

It's always crazy to go back and re-watch/listen to something when you have a new perspective or appreciation for it. I enjoy when you do 2.0s.

The reacts to the reacts are fantastic.

You're right. Eminem's life story hooked up with his crazy pen game is what puts him leagues ahead of everyone else.

I never usually comment on KZfaq but it takes a lot of courage I think to go back and honestly assess and judge yourself in general let alone on a video that's going to get crazy number of views. Props to u and just goes to show 1 of the reasons ppl tune into ur videos cause u don't try and bullshit ur viewers. Well done Sir, look forward 2 watching ur reactions of Em's new (hopefully soon) album!

Lmfaoo. I fuckin love you Stevie!! You are not the only one who missed the whole shit. I’m a Stan and have been since approximately 2006ish. When I first heard 25 to life, I thought it was him referring to how he felt when he was Kim. You all good bro. All love from OKC!💯
