Why are we still debating this? Real question is, why did we even debate this in the first place???? It’s really simple guys, mentioning Ems daughter is equivalent to killing John Wick’s dog.

''So you got me in a scope but you grazed me'' graze beside barely hitting has another meaning which is feeding a goat , EM basically is saying Mgk fed him by his diss at him '' and There is a movie called KILLSHOT , which in that movie someone names COLSON , which is MGK's real name will be hunt down by a MARSHALL , EMINEM's real name, and Em later on says: ''Lethal injection, go to sleep 6 feet deep I'll give you a B for the effort, but if I was 3 Foot 11, you'd look up to me'' if you put the 6 and the B and the 3 and the 11 together , it's gonna be 6B311 , which is the code name of a PLANE that carried the cast of the movie KILLSHOT , EM is literally an alien , THE RAP GOD

Dude I love that the bullseye on his forehead is perfectly aligned with the play button animation so every time you play or pause it fires a shot and you see the "kill shot" animation. So awesome

The “locks changing” bar also means his hair has changed. Calling back to his weird beard and the fact that he used to bleach his hair too but now he’s older and has darker hair and rhymes…

If you notice: " your reply got the crowd yelling woo, so before you dye let's see who can out petty-who" is a reference to Tom Perry's famous song "Running Down a dream" where the crowd, especially at concerts, would yell WOO continually for 1 minute straight with the guitar solo. It was a staple at Tom Petty concerts. Tom Petty died shortly before this battle. Also, this song was written by Em in 13 minutes and was published on the 14th September 2018 the same date of death of Patrick Swayze ( 14 Sep. 2009). If you search carefully in this part of killshot you can find Eminem's plane number ( on which he wrote the song)

@KnoxHill if you want to have your mind blown look at the lyrics at 2:17 in killshot - he says "give jade a kiss". Obvious references to Jadakiss and the kiss of death, but he says it at 2:17. Jadakiss second album was titled Kiss of Death and the 17th track was the title song...Kiss of Death. 2 and 17 - no shot that is coincidence.

Em is too lyrical even for lyrical rap fans. He always has some sick shit that some may never figure out.

The fact that it took him less than 15 minutes to write this is insane especially with those multi-syllables and rhyme schemes

Your breakdowns got me into lyricists. I used to think rap didn’t have much substance but you breaking it down helped me understand all the doubles and triples and multi syllable rhyme schemes. Keep it up!

My favorite part is at the beginning where he's in the background "why you yell at da mic" 😂😂

Just a classic, it never gets old to listen to Eminem's diss. As always a fantastic and enjoyable breakdown by professor of bars Knox hill.

Pretty sure your original breakdown is what got me on your channel. Been watching all your content ever since. You don't catch em all, but you catch a hell of a lot more than everyone else and always on the first go

Eminem said in Bully that he got money to clap back at anyone who tries to kill him over his raps. Diddy would need witness protection if he decided to do Eminem in. And Diddy knows this which is why he didn't actually "handle" Em like he said he would.

I’m surprised Knox Hill didn’t catch the “toothpick” play on words and double/triple. Eminem says, “ little white toothpick” later he says “you’re loosing the fight you PICKED” play on looking like one and picking the fight literally and in some weird way metaphorically lol.

I love that you acknowledged that you pause and people will complain XD why do people do that. Its analysis. Love your channel bro - keep up the great work.

Aint nothin changed but the locks... - Triple Locks - keys to the game The Lox - older rap group from NY the locks - The only thing Em changed was his hair color (the locks) - still deadly on the mic.

I been watching your breakdowns for a while and your ability not only catch bars but appreciate the change ups and beats and switches in the beat as well and how they bend to the beat and use their voices as instruments. Great job bro.

Something no one caught. Iggy azalea real name is Amethyst Amelia Kelly Her most famous song Fancy had the chorus that said " Remember my name I'm about to bloooowwww" Eminem said to mgk " Next to Taylor swift and that Iggy ho. You're about to really blow KELLY" He literally remembered her real name, like she said in the song and said that she thought she would blow with " Fancy" but now she's really gonna blow with him saying her name and he did that while still talking to mgk at the same time That is him dissing 2 artist in one sentence Genius

I was just listening to that breakdown the other day after listening to it when you first dropped the video. Crazy how you made a part 2. Keep up the great work, Knox!🔥

Great reaction as usual! The sandal bar has never been mentioned by any other reaction channel, and I had the same thought from the very first time hearing it!!

Thank you Knox, you make my day by making these awesome Eminem reactions. Just know that your videos make me smile man, I wish to meet you some day man thank you so much.

Knox videos are my way to understand hip hop and appreciate it more

This has got to be the longest funeral ever! 4 years and we’re still attending

A month of watching your videos an I feel like I've massively improved in my own writing man. Blessings to you for the work you doing man 🙏 💚

20:23 Yes, it's fastest he went in this Song. He Song is based on mostly 16th and 8th notes and some spicy dotted 8th notes but at this Part He Raps a Quintuplet, which is a pretty complicated drum rhythm, where you Rap 5 Syllables in one beat

Before I even watch this 2.0 version, Em killed it. All MGK did was mention a ton of Em's biggest hits. It sounded great, but not much substance. Em too everything MGK said and turned it around on him. The line near the end, "As Long as I am Shady, you'll have to stand in my shadow" said it all. MGK got what he wanted out of it though, he got recognition. I had no idea who he was until this and wish I still didn't know who he is.

“Nothin changed but the locks” is also a reference to him changing from bleach blonde back to his natural hair color. Locks of hair.

Hell yeah! That video was almost an hour long and when it was over I was like, “wait, it’s only been like, 10 minutes!” You had me hooked in with your ability to break down all the bars and technicals.

I have listened to these a lot but I am always down to check out more especially from Nasty Knox. Plus the Swayze line hits harder when you realize that the song was released on September 14th the day Patrick passed away.

I think the word you were looking for was "rebuttal" also when he said "ain't nothing change but the lox" he went from the signature blonde hair to natural. Really enjoy your breakdowns Knox, I truly believe Em saw your breakdowns, hope you collab with the Goat soon cuz u deserve it 💯Respect all the way from Trinidad and Tobago 🇹🇹

As always, on point. I really enjoy your breakdown 🙂

Only uploaded 7 seconds ago and I know its gonna be a banger! (btw loving the Ren reactions, keep 'em coming!)

Crazy that your original hit 3.1 million views! But for sure it deserves to! I mean no one breaks bars, rhyme schemes, everything else like Knox hill! Just a fact!

Just here to say congrats on 900k! Comment for the bloody algorithm!

Also he says "here's a autograph for your daughter, i wrote it on a starter cap" not only a call back to "Stan" but also implying the MGK's daughter is a huge fan of Em's, just like Stan's brother was.

No reaction/analysis video i’ve seen mentions how hard the “pop champagne to this” line is, in reference to MGK posting that video of himself spraying a bathroom with Veuve just bc Em dissed him on Kamikaze

Deja vu all over again. Good thing I never get tired of Eminem. Or you. Thanks, Knox. 🔥🤘🏼❤️

Fun fact, "Killshot" dropped on the anniversary of Patrick Swayze's death. 🤯

You should breakdown all the best hip hop beefs it would be a dope series

I think people miss the release date for Em's diss was the death anniversary of Patrick Swayze. And people argue Em took too long to respond, think about it.

To add to the diddy going to take care of him part, Em even poked the bear again with “I’m diddys side bitch… I’m still east side bitch”

hey Knox, I may not have been around your channel all that long…but you must have improved, simply do to the fact that you are one of the best breakdown channels on this platform. it’s just to rare to be one of the best without some sort of improvement. that said, keep up the great work my man.

ALMOST A MILLY MAN!!! SO HAPPY FOR YOU BRO

I wonder y other react channels miss SO much. They all say how MGK won and Em was weak. But tbh I think it proves how Em is just on another level. Mad props to u Knox!! Love ur content!!!

Em's the closest we have to a modern day Shakespeare.

Every rhymes breakdown n lyrics punchlines of em never get old 💥💥🔥❤️

Love these vids please keep them coming 👍

I've actually revisited this out of curiosity recently, and it was only then that I'd realized Eminem started the rebuttals even before the Rihanna line! MGK says in spoken tone "when your idols become your rivals", Em uses the rebuttle at the opening saying "when your fans become your haters" 😁

I think "Ain't nothin' changed but the locks" could also be pointing out how MGK used to have really short and bad hair, but now he's grown it out but that's the only thing that's changed about him.

I can't believe I'm BARELY finding your channel, the way you view music is the EXACT way I view music as well!! I love finding ppl like this, but I can never find ppl like you in my personal life. Lmao they're always influencers or have some kind of social media platform l. 😂

You know I love you knox! Just been a min

I have always thought the line “spend the whole day digging your own grave” was an underrated rebuttal to the music video lol, rarely gets pointed out because it wasn’t as hard of a hit but it was one of the witty ones

I love all the hidden meanings in Eminem's raps, particularly this one. "One call to Interscope and you Swayze". Patrick Swayze, famous actor, starred in the movie Ghost. To ghost someone, is to cut all ties without any explanation. Not only that, Eminem released this on 14th September, the very day Patrick Swayze passed away from cancer. Coincidence? Clever lyrical play? You decide.

Knox, nothing but one thing…always your fan!

Lol I'm not listing the time stamp but I wanted to say I never hate on you pressing the pause button. We love the breakdowns

The labor day bar has to be one of my favorite bars in this diss track because it's just an amazing yet simple double.

Keep doing what you do man👍 much respect 🫡 Also, a suggestion for the next Mathers Day, check Vegas by Bad meets evil of the Shady XV album….be prepared for a 30min+ video tho 😅

I'm enjoying the little tidbits of information the comments section is adding to this topic!

3 million! Sheeesh bless up bruhh

One of the craziest things is that Em released this on September 14th and Patrick Swayze died on September 14. people say it’s a reach but that’s too big of a coincidence to be an accident in my opinion.

Man, I remember the first time I heard the ditty line, and every reaction video that I watched, that shit shook the Earth

These tracks actually got me into listening to Eminem for a while, the reactions at the time were super interesting!

Love the content 😎

Shady is just someone you don't want to go after, unless you are fed up with your career and want it to end.

Em don’t get enough credit for his adlibs. I’m sure he wasn’t the fist to do funny punchline noises, but it really adds a depth to the music

Dang I remember watching the first one when you dropped it and hat like 100k subs. Yr about to hit 900k. #1milForKnoxHill

Should have waited glad knox addressed this. I feel alot of reactors miss this triple 17:03 triple for “locks”, em now has alot of power in the rap industry and has changed the locks 🔐 to the industry potentially making it more diverse than simply it being about sex, drugs, and alcohol

Still hits so hard all this time later. Can't believe MGK actually thought he had a shot. And about that Pac and Diddy line. Em isn't clearly saying that Diddy put the hit, however he is clearly saying that MGK will never put out a hit song/album because : either Diddy did do it, and he'll never admit to it, or he didn't do it, so he'll never to it.

🎉🎉❤❤ I guess no one realizes that Patrick Swayze died September 14 2009 and Eminem drop kill shot September 14 2018 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!😅😅😅😅😅

Would love a series with Knox talking about Rap conspiracies!!

Would love to see some rap battle breakdowns. Some KOTD !

Bro never misses! Was waiting for you to explain "lethat injection, go to sleep, six feet deep! They are all diss tracks whitch proves once again the genius of slim shady! Keep up the good work brother! Show love to this legend named knox Hill and leave a like and sub! (Waiting for your new music) 🔥

Every damn time I listen to KILLSHOT , it gets me and hypes me up cuz of how lethal and true it is , RIP MGK , you should have picked the right guy

FYI 311 was the number you used to call to look up info back in the day. For me that bar hits HARD

Fr..you explain alot....you must be the writer ❤

We revisited this?!??!! Okay okayyyyy

You could have reacted to sth else Em related (like Drama Setter by Tony Yayo ft.Eminem and Obie) But attending a funeral a second time was surprisingly entertaining

Never heard about MGK before Eminem diss. Never heard about MGK after Eminem diss.

Knox the locks bar was a triple (the locks to the house of rap, the lox, and his hair is different from the last time we saw him so his locks have changed)

Gotta wake up labor day to DISS

Wish you had addressed one of my favorite lines. He says something I don’t really do…molehill I’m going to make a mountain out of you. It’s great because he debated responding and he rarely responds because he can’t win. Even if he destroys MGK, which he did, he gives him unbelievable clout just by responding. So I love how he says, I’m going to make a mountain out of you. That and I like the shovel line. Bring a shovel just to dig your own grave. That hits really hard when you go back and watch the MGK vid

Great breakdown.

Knox you are goated

As a biologist, one of the crazy line I heard from Kill Shot was the "you broke bitch I have enough money in 02 to burn it in front of you." It basically means that Em had more money than MGK in 2002 (refers that Em has more success than MGK when he was younger) but also when you burn things you need oxygen, which the periodic element for Oxygen is also O2.

Killshot hit MGK so hard that it knocked him out of rap and into a whole different genre

When you gonna drop "Trippin on you". I'm really hyped for that one.

He also released this song on the same date Patrick swayze died , so when he says "you swayze" meaning his dead 😂

Eminem. And it's not even close. MGK Rap Devil was slightly more catchy. That's it. Em with Killshot addressed all MGKs shit in about 15 seconds, and straight up bodied MGK. And he didn't even go in as hard as he's done in the past. He didn't even eat all the food. He didn't need to.

I think it is evident Em won from every standpoint and every metric of the song except replayability, but yet this song isn't meant for that. On a higher note, Em still raps, and MGK does whatever it is he does now

Leaving a link to video under your other one. 😎

The sandals line..MGK had sandals in the Rap Devil video😁Was great seeing you revisit this👍

One thing about emz "flip" dis track that we may be missing is that, he may have chosen the approach to "flip" everything MGK said to further show how intelligent em really is by relating his symbolic middle finger gesture (flipping the bird) to the flipping off everything MGK line he came at him with. Hope that made sense lol. During the process of preparing the MGK response from eminem, there was a video of em playing pacman on an arcade machine which was another subliminal hit as if to say "im coming for your neck as MGK has a pacman tattoo on his neck. The man's on level 1000. Em fan. If this would be an actual fact, em wins but thats just my opinion 🤷

I'm gonna regret this, but here's my take This beef was a stalemate. Neither won. Eminem called it in on this one and didnt put his usual diss track passion into it. He COULD HAVE outright forced a retirement but there's a lot of "i'mma help you out" vibes from Killshot. His rhyme scheme is among his best, but it made each punch appear to hit harder than it actually did. Now, to pick apart a few things, the man bun was only there for Bird Box filming then MGK ditched it right after, which shoulda been known by Eminem, so that's a miss. Another one is the mention about which album number Recovery was, which confused me even on the very first listen cause i'm pretty sure EPs and LPs still count as albums, so Em felt like he was trying to force something there... MGK was being praised for having the best diss track against Eminem every single day until Killshot came out, then interestingly that mention just disappeared. He even calls out some stuff that Eminem did NOT address whatsoever (are you really gonna count that scripted interview? I love Eminem but even that was pathetic for him. Let's be real here) outside of the Sway interview, which those were even pretty bad explanations and not convincing whatsoever... MGK was on his game and wrote that shit in 1 evening? Em took over a week and came out with Killshot... There's a lot more but i'd rather avoid getting my inbox blown tf up, but I never hear the above mentioned in various takes i've heard. MGK likely saw that Killshot wasnt what it coulda been, and decided to roll with that wave instead of attacking back. Should he have? Absolutely, but I'm pretty sure I see why he didnt, and why he's been furious about the beef since. He wanted to respond so bad, you can see it, but it wouldnt have helped him at all. If MGK were to wait till after his next album (current day) then I can see him making a more massive crater I;m a big fan of both, but I'm not wild about how Em handled his response.

Hey Knox, love your work, you should look into hilltop hoods - Cosby sweater, think you'd enjoy it and would love to see your reaction to it

4:34 That BASS drop gets me every time! 💨

I love how no one talks about the heaps of misinformation in killshot, mgk is not a mumble rapper, the man bun was from 2014-2015 years before the beef which was for a movie role, em didn't make or destroy his career, mgk had plenty of hits before the beef like wild boy and bad things, he does not have more fans than him in Cleveland that's the biggest lie I've ever heard in my life he literally has a whole holiday in Cleveland. I did like killshot tho the track is fire but half the people that review this beef are biased towards eminem and that's facts

MGK won it for me. He wrote Rap Devil in less than a day. Eminem took damn near 3 weeks to reply. Hell, he even had his boys running interference for him because he didn't want to respond to MGK. So I don't care how much better his "rhyme schemes" ended up being. He doesn't get extra credit for that when he didn't respond in a timely manner. But that fact gets glossed over because Eminem has so many fans willing to give him a pass. Any other rapper would have gotten trashed for the punk way Eminem moved those first 10 days after Rap Devil dropped.

hey Knox great fan love from India

Honestly u have my favorite reaction videos to killshot .. the majority of people miss 90% of the punch lines, or just don’t get it lol thank you for this
