I was drinking nearly a 5th of vodka a day for over a decade...this shit actually motivated me to quit. 1 year and 24 days sober.

Eminem, what an enigma! The best selling most awarded rap artist, yet underrated and still being discovered and appreciated by new generations. A man who is private, limits his exposure, has no paid endorsements I’m aware of, yet has such a loyal and dedicated fan base. A white man who struggled to make it in a culturally black inspired/dominated art form, yet he defends and is politically aligned with them in solidarity. When you dig through the considerable layers of what makes up Eminem, he is very real and honorable.

Yes Asia you’re right, this is when he came back after his OD and is off the album tilted “Recovery”

this was his first album after getting sober from his overdose. Not Afraid is like an anthem for addicts wanting to get sober or anybody going through some life struggles. Hailey(daughter) is the one that found him overdosed on methadone pills in his bathroom, doctors said had she not found him he would have been dead within two hours or less.

They use eminems lyrics in universities for poetry English etc too. They for sure study his brain truly gifted with words

This guy is a lyricall genius, this guy has a huge talent, do you know that he is the english speaking artist who has the most vocabulary, this is the reason why he has so much touching text, he has a hell of a life and it shows immediately when he sings........ The goat 🐐🐐🐐 ( big support from france 🇫🇷) 👌🤙🏼

Eminem even said after his overdose he had to learn how to rap again, so his relapse album was probably an experimental album for him getting back into the game again

One of the 3 Diamonds single Em has.

Thank you guys for reacting❤ EMINEM is the G.O.A.T.👑🐐

Em overdosed on prescription drugs and was hospitalised he nearly died... When he came back from that he had to learn how to rap again.. he dropped Relapse hence all the accents in album...personally Relapse/Recovery are my TOP 5 Em albums as an Ex addict myself 14yrs clean I can relate to both alot.. Em came out stronger and better 👌👌 should do more from both albums just to get a feel what he was going through 😊

Sometimes people get wrapped up in his greatness, but forget he is a human being that also went thru his share of stuff. I challenge he still has yet to reach his potential. 💯

Eminem is 13 years sobriety he is 13 years sober.

This is truly a timeless pice of music. Even though it came out years ago. This is still an anthem for the struggle through life.

The album that Eminem said isn’t his best work is still absolute 🔥.

***HE IS A STORY TELLER*** He takes his life and puts it into words and draws you in. You can relate to what he says. He went from a skinny drug addicted rapper to one of the best rappers God created. He has dedicated his life back to Hailey. Listen to his song " Drug Ballad" that is his one of his crazy songs like Asia was talking about..love you guys

One of my favorite song by Em he really did amazing with this song, one things em isn't afraid to talk about is real life and that's what l love about him. He has helped so many people and brought joy to all his fan ❤ Not afraid is an amazing song🔥.

This man is a genius he is the best ever I'm sorry Eminem hams down as the best rapper ever he is so inspirational his words speak for itself and hes a living legend

Relapse is pure fire, not a bad song on the whole album! Check out Beautiful, Deja Vu, or Elevator from it.

Do Best Friend - Yelawolf feat. Eminem

I’m not into ‘Rap’ 🎤🎶 but this dude is a lyrical genius ! 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾

One of my favorites by Em. Proud of any and all who over come addiction. I pray for all who struggle with addiction. Thanks for reacting to this one😊🤟

An inspirational and brutally honest anthem for Eminem’s fans addressing that of his struggles and triumphs, and encouraging his fans to reach their triumphs as well. "I'm not afraid (I'm not afraid) To take a stand (To take a stand)" - He’s brave enough to admit that he has a problem and that a lot of the messages that he sent out glorifying drug use on his past records might have been ill-advised. He isn’t afraid to look softer if it means he can help people out who could end up in similar situations that he was. He is afraid of giraffes though. "Whatever weather, cold or warm, Just lettin' you know that you're not alone, Holla if you feel like you've been down the same road"- No matter what you’re going through in life, you’re not alone. There are people in this world feeling the same way and being that Eminem has been through the same way of life, you can trust his music to lead you out of the darkness. "And all those who look down on me, I'm tearin' down your balcony " - To “look down” on someone means to view them as someone of lesser importance. Plus, people on balconies high up literally look down on others. "From Infinite down to the last Relapse album he's still shittin'" - Infinite was Em’s first studio album and Relapse was his most recent album (back in 2010) - he’s mimicking the critics who have hated on him throughout his career. "Like a "fuck you" for Christmas, his gift is a curse" - A “Fuck You” for Christmas is a gift that’s a curse (literally, as “fuck” is a curse word); similarly, Eminem sometimes thinks of his “gift” (talent) for rapping as his cross to bear. "Okay, quit playin' with the scissors and shit, and cut the crap" - A clever play on words: applying scissors to shit is how one would go about literally cutting crap, He also means here that companies like MTV and VEVO shouldn’t censor or ‘cut’ his lines, and leave the “bad words” like crap in. Eminem says whatever he wants! "I shouldn't have to rhyme these words in a rhythm, For you to know it's a rap " - Here, Em goes off the beat and then rhymes about going off the beat. This kind of meta-rhyme stuff is a little inside baseball, but it’s a big part of why Em’s one of the most technically-gifted emcees in mainstream rap, There’s also an “it’s a wrap” pun here: he shouldn’t have to be spitting this rhyme for you to know that Em’s victory in any challenge to Em’s dominance is a foregone conclusion.“Rap” literally stands for Rhyme And Poetry.

This song is so inspiring and such an anthem!

Honestly I'm 47. Born in Richmond CA. Grew up with NWA, Too Short, etc. Then to Virginia where introduced to Wu Tang as a dishwasher trying to raise up a young family. I didn't listen(maybe the only one who never listened to M). I realize he's inspirational for a whole group though. Any new/young rappers for my are MESUS, NF, HOPSIN, TOPHER, ETC. my old schoolers are Calhoun, Struggle, Brodnax. I did watch 8 mile through all the way. A little too corny for me. Nice message but super mainstream. If he dyes his head purple I'm walking. Need no have faith in all. Asia and BJ. If I'm not family....your're still mine. Peace.

I don’t understand why you always get thumbs down. You guys are hilarious and fun to watch. Haters make you Greater. Keep following your passion

Em is an amazing artist and story teller, people dislike him because he speaks the truth. They hated his album before kamikaze because he was speaking on things that were going on. Walk on water and untouchable are amazing songs but since he said things people didn't agree with, they bash him

This song definitely helped me get through rehab on my 2nd and last time. January 28, 2012. That’s my date. Thanks Em for helping me

On July 19, 2022 I'll be celebrating 8 years off of Fentanyl. Recovery is easily the best album Em has ever made. It just hits different when you get sober.

Eminem is not only the greatest rapper ever, he is also the best musician and songwriter ever. For me it is impossible to compare him with any other rapper or musician.

2009 Eminem relapse album he was sober but he just went krazy on it 🔥people don’t like to hear different music Eminem been a goat I’m from the hood I hate when people said they don’t listen to him in the hood I’m from EAST HARLEM NYC favorite rappers top 5 2pac Eminem big pun big L jadakiss Eminem is one of the best rappers ever he help me in life just like every other great legend have a bless day ❤️🙏🏼

eminem --- sing for the moment .. please please please you will not regret it

Mom show me this song when i was 10 years old , and Now I'm Stan till i die

"People will believe in anything other than in themselves." -A.G. Fahrenheit People actually believe this is your first time hearing this song.

As someone who has battled addiction I can tell you that you never get past it. You may beat it but you'll always fear going back. Relapsing. It truly is a one day at a time life. Every day you chose not to use. This song speaks to me on a very personal level.

"he's a computer from another planet" 😂😂

He wanted that camera man in there....Em makes NO MISTAKES n everything n evefy word has meanings...like Stevie Knight said there no filler bars or mistakes..but yeah he wantef that camera man in the shot💯

Eminem in the interview said he couldnt focus on anything during the rehub time, he couldnt talk to ppl, couldnt watching the movie, lost his skills of rap, so he had to learn everything from beginning, this song is how he feels when he finally get on the track and being healthy both body and mindset, its like get a new life

One of the best and most motivational songs in hip hop history. So legendary and iconic, for what it represents, recovered from additions and thanks fans and shows his strenght and dedication. Goosebumps and perfect to workout. Portugal here for the Goat Eminem always since day one 1999 and forever. Thanks for reacting. Salutes. And yeah one of Eminem diamond singles

This is when our special boy grew up and sobered up, love it! 💯❤️🔥

There is no way you haven't heard that song before.

In my opinion this is one of the best rap songs ever made Probably like top 5 for me

He is so raw and a genius with his words. BJ, you hit the nail on the head!

This is my favourite song by eminem and it was after he came out of rehab and elton john became his sponsor they talk regularly even now

He literally almost died the last time he overdosed..it was just over ...and came back 🥺😭

Reclaiming is the perfect description of this song. Timeless too. Btw you mention going up. That is the theme of his newer song “Higher” and it’s dope af. The video is an homage to LL

You guys nailed it on the lyrics and the timing on when he wrote this.

His verse on Forever was his new start. He made that song his

This album put a light at the end of so many peoples tunnel! It was like a Churchill World War 2 speech or a public service announcement for mental health. What was amazing was that nobody expected it! It was the resurrection the second coming, which quite literally took him from rapper to legend. There aren’t many albums out there that speak so much relatable truth, it quite literally lifted me away from dark satanic suicide and it seems that millions of people felt that inspiration. The phrase “Eminem saved my life” was thrust into existence!

Thanks for being awesome u 2. I've been in a rut and found you guys. Keep up the good work and the good vibes in 2023

Em puts his whole LIFE N TRUTH in his music yo ..love or hate it its there n its why he has a fan base/the stans he do n that NOONE else does yo😈💯🐐

Please check out going through changes Eminem

The way Eminem bends words is insane!!

Em the Genius 👏❤️🙏

The best duo on KZfaq!!!❤

I remember a few years ago there was a poetry course on Eminem in the University College of Dublin. UCD is like a Cathedral of Poets 💚

Did you guys know that Eminem has is in the Guinness Book Of Records for having the” Widest Vocabulary “ he tops Everybody in Rap and in every other type of music…!!!

Eminem went black hair with 8mile

His 3 daughters,Hallie,Lanie & Whitney💗💗💗

Great reaction to one of my fav Eminem songs - so inspirational!👏 Em is a walking dictionary and thesaurus 🐐 best rapper bar none! PLEASE react to 'DARKNESS' - absolute genius - the double/triple entendres, the lyrics, the rhyming schemes, the Simon & Garfunkel sample (Sound of Silence), but with an incredibly important message - IMO think it's his MASTERPIECE!🐐 *NO SPOILERS*

This song got me through rehab. Been clean since 12/22/2010

Eminem killed it on this song about out to Eminem #notafraid

My fav EM song

That's why I like this channel. You guys are real

when he wrote Relapse cd, he said he was battling writer's block and would write anything down. But after Relapse was done, he felt more like himself and wrote Recovery. So he says Encore, he was on drugs, Relapse he was coming off, then Recovery it was out of his system and he felt like himself again.

Holler! I was broken and living several simultaneous bitch slaps from out of no where. This song helped me out of the darkness. I loved your reaction to this powerful anthem of how to fail forward! 🌎✌️

He is talking about the rap game. That's what he is reclaiming.

I totally agree. Not just the words but the way that he rhymes and presents those words. Dope reaction y’all. Thank you. Can I ask a favor that y’all react to Baby by Em. I been listening to Em since like 96. I think his cadence and all else in that track left me speechless but motivating like this track but colder.

When you were talking about how he can rhyme any word that shouldn’t rhyme, it made me think of his song “Tone Deaf” you should definitely do a video on that one

Great react, Em the goat

He ran them accents into the ground. On relapse he did a ton of accents and wasn’t happy with it.

He’s a lyrical genius

He is 13 year sober 😚🖤

ASIA AND BJ REACT TO SPACE BOUND BY EMINEM

This is one of his first songs since announcing his sobriety publicly.

Till I collapse 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

This is the eminem i fell in love with. This era is so nostalgic to me❤. Not afraid is my fav em song of all time❤❤.

Perfect breakbown of the song guys. Great reaction.

Dig y’all! Very positive vibes!

Anyone who says Eminem is not a full blow artist is high ; you just have to look at the end of The Way I am, Not Afraid and THe Fall. In Way I am he stops just before hitting the ground, in this he gets to the ground and flies, in the fall with everything behind him he falls and just lands on his feet and walks away. That alone is a complete epic in three scenes

Great reaction and awesome channel, love to watch you guys hearing new music and the back n forth between you. Please check out Eminem's "Monster" with Rihanna. I love that track almost as much as the Love the Way You Lie track, even though they are so different. Please react to it. Peace ✌

I'll tell you what though. He read a dictionary all the time so he could have any word available at any time. Seems like a good start if you ask me. Anyone can memorize words, but being able to string words together like that isn't something anybody can do. The reason his lyrics hit so hard is because he is able to get his point across using any word he wants. He'll tell you what words rhyme, not the other way around lol.

WHACHU MEAN FIRST TIME?! Y'all been living under a rock under a mountain under the moon or something?! Lmao

Can you please. React to TI featuring Eminem all she wrote. Eminem is a God gods come up with the craziest verses and them impossible entendre’s in the WebCam that’s why no one fucks with the white boy in the industry and that’s why everyone has respect for Eminem.

He had just come out of rehab, and he was clean, which is probably why he changed his image (hair color) also. Notice he keeps seeing his reflection….. He was saying in the beginning “I guess I had to go to that place…to get to this one.”

I lived a block away from where that video was shot down in Newark...Pretty exciting to be able to watch a lot of it in the process.

Bro do Eminem no love song reaction

When Em started out expanding himself as a rapper. He use to read dictionary all the time to find words he could ryme his lyrics with.

He rose to super fame super fast, dealt w beefs, dealt with family drama & then lost Proof. Remarried Kim for it to fail again. The isolation of fame, the depression that came with it, isolation fuel depression even more. He got deeper in the drugs did rehab then OD & nearly died (I heard he was 15 days on a vent conscious I can’t fucking imagine I was 38 hours awake on a vent it’s scary af). Getting sober was a lot of healing & a rebirth. Not Afraid is about rebirth

good video my first Eminem song at 9 I'm a criminal favorite line THIS PUPPY CAN BE CLAD I DIDN'T BLAST HIS ASS YET :) Request from South Africa Do Reaction to I'm shady please!! Thanks a BILLION in advance

Great reaction guys

This songs is about him getting sober and being in recovery. Hint the album is called recovery

Em got soooo many inspirational songs yo ...sooo many 💯💯💯

Need to react to My darling song it makes sense

React to the song Legacy by hating em one of the greatest songs ever made

Top 5 in my personal opinion🔥🔥🔥🔥

Eminem will always be a goat, but I would give anything to hear him and Big L on a track together. RIP Big L you had girls that make Toni Braxton look like Whoopi.
