It’s 🐐

Absolutely!!! The GOAT!!!

My Name Is was put out to get radio play. Guilty Conscience.... he got Hate for!!! The Vice Presidents wife tried to get his music banned! They were trying to cancel him from the very beginning! But his shock rap captured the attention of teenagers everywhere! Putting him in the mainstream and there was no stopping him after that!

Cage was an underground rapper Eminem was beefing with at the time.

Yep... of course. If you entered this world, you have to follow Em's journey... imagine what this album was like when it came out... (most likely you weren't even born). For all of us who were part of that generation, Em brought us a breath of fresh air... we were still quite repressed in some aspects, and he tore down all the walls... they tried to cancel him from all the powerful entities (government - journalism - producers). There was no one who wasn't against him, but here he is still... it's incredible, but he did it.

People get it so backwards. Sure. More ppl are pussy now. But there were always folks just waitin to be appalled for attention and a heightened sense of self importance lol n folks who are softer than fish shit n just get offended like it's their job. The big change is the folks sayin the shit that offends ppl started folding. Buckling. Ppl used to say "I'm offended" and we used to... I mean, we'd be decent humans. Maybe say "tht wasn't my intention". But we understood you bein offended is YOUR business. If I wasn't gonna stand behind what I said(joke or not) i wouldn't have even said it, in the first place. Even by sayin "oh you could say xyz back then"... no, there were always consequeunces. You could then and you can now. But the more ppl repeat that nonsense the more our culture will believe you can't. Til... it becomes reality. N mfers are really goin to jail for it in 50 years But for now... you can still say whatever tf you want. Just do it the way we did it and when ppl say "I'm offended" say "oh. Well ok." And that's that As soon as folks wanted EVERYONE to accept their opinions and agree with thrm without pissin anybody off... that's when it changed. But it's 100% an illusion. "Oh. You're offended. Well. That's interesting". ... the end. All it needs to be.

It's rap, anything is acceptable we have freedom of speech. Even today you could rap this

@@bensmiley7042 no you couldn't. Freedom of speech is pretty much nonexistent now, the corporate structure will silence and shadow ban you, etc. Thought crime approach. For example, if you could rap this stuff now, how come Eminem's new stuff is nothing like his old stuff? It's watered down, Em became that which he was previously speaking out against and satirizing.

@nunisthathigh4825 yeah but for rappers it doesn't matter if you're independent, if you're with a big record label then sure. And I know about the freedom of speech being less existent now a days I live in canada. Trudeau is trying to pass a bill that makes misgendering someone a hate crime

@@bensmiley7042 yes, technically. If something's underground then yeah, hardly anyone knows about it since if society knows about it, it's not underground, it's polluted by the interests of the corporation and the people. Underground expression means exactly how it sounds, full on independent expression. The thing is though, that it's the US surveillance state that makes free speech in America more tricky. Because how can anyone have the outlet for free speech if there's so much put on the spotlight? It's very reflective of the curse of fame, like if a member of a rock band had his picture taken by the paparazzi while he's smoking a hash joint. He'll later face a bunch of backlash from reactionary types (a lot of youtubers I'm sure) and possibly gain the unwanted attention of police too, 'cause...the US war on drugs. Or when a celebrity is taking his date to a coffeehouse and in comes the paparazzi to take a picture. Fame means you have no private life. So many take a look at the idea of privacy rights and think, "Well, we don't really have privacy anymore and really what's the big deal?" The big deal is it's the surveillance, not even from big brother nor corporations, but society itself that still makes the same problem because society tends to impose authoritarianism on each other. It's like the book One Flew Over The Cuckoos Nest, it was a very antiauthoritarian book revolving around Murphy, a captured bank robber who feigns insanity 'cause he thinks the psychiatric asylum would be better than prison...when it clearly isn't. And yes, psychiatric asylums especially back then in the early 60s/late 50s time period were pretty horrid...but how did they end up in a psychiatric asylum? People. It's their family who phoned them in and had the supposedly mentally unwell "committed." If in hypothetical America does become officially totalitarian it'll be backed up by the surveillance state that will allow government authorities to impose their draconian "worst George Orwell nightmare" measures because then they'll be able to have everyone in a spotlight. And this danger is already happening in the US now (project 2025). The GOP and think tanks are trying to impose official totalitarianism by the year 2025 and to be technical...there's been certain measures that have been imposed as of late that suggests the politicians are working things in already.

It’s so cute, like do people think his mom named him “Eminem”, hilarious!

I’ve never facepalmed so hard when he said that

These dudes are clowns

Bro is a glazer

Plus visited 3 times by the Secret Service, used his name and music in the legislation to get those parental advisory stickers (and under 18 can’t buy without guardian), banned in Canada and Australia for a while, protested by every special interest group, hated by women and they blamed school shootings on his music… He just came back harder each time.

The Queen banned him from playing at Hyde Park!

First thing....always get head with a condom.....if it's not ur gf or wife lol

Right I was like “what?” when they were calling this album a comedy.

In their defense, Eminem used to rap about more serious shit and wasn’t getting nowhere. He himself even said he just started talking about non sense he observed growing up in the trailer park.

Brain Damage is the one that I identified with most, but I understand why some other whitebois might like RB

@@zimriel I don’t rly think being a white dude correlates with me liking the track, it’s just the relatability of being that broke at a given moment in time

Are we to watch this space?

@@MostlyUseless141 bro what

We will most likely do the classics, Marshall Mathers and Eminem Show

​@@theeJAYBUDshowdon't stop there.

@@theeJAYBUDshowdo em all, never know one of the underrated could end up being your favorite

I agree! I remember loving The SS LP so much I was worried he would be a one hit wonder. And then the Marshall Mathers LP came out and was blown away at how much better it was

Infinite has some bangers. Title track and "It's Ok" with Eye Kyu

Definitely a publicity stunt he was supposed to be famous he was planned. We were supposed to be who he is. They train him since he was a child most definitely guarantee it

At the time, it was definitely funny. Didn’t know what to do after Kurt Cobain Bradley Nowell I was tragically too rancid and outcome over and over and not really understanding that to be honest with you, Tim Armstrong is the best lyrics that I’ve ever ever heard in my life. I can tell you that as an adult this is my number one musician ever

Yo I commented on the same thing. Sad plus the “bad trip” was nothing compared to “my fault.” 😂

Yep, he was in a coma and had actual brain damage from D’Angelo Bailey beating him. Em didn’t come home from school so his mom went to the school and they didn’t know anything. She searched for him on campus and found him unconscious in the boys restroom. She ended up suing the school district but she lost the case.

@@erikahutchcraft1742exactly just like the documentary says 😮‍💨😮‍💨

Crazy how different his voice sounds in Power Of The Dollar before he was shot.

Yeah parents were scared of Eminems music during that era. We were even told to not listen to Eminem music by the teachers. The guy was a menace..... His music did make my language crude but most of the things he did there we never copied, we knew it was jokes and exaggerated. When i became an adult and re-listening to his music I notice that a lot of his music is outlet of things he is dealing with personally but he releases in a more fucked up or diabolical way to the listener's ears. Foe example his nototious song "Kim" is him expressing his anger and frustration with his on and off baby mother and their toxic relationship.

Im 35. Remember Eminem coming into the music industry with "My name is" Literally the best debut track you will ever hear imo. What a way to introduce yourself to the world

You can't cancel Em lol the TikTok generation already tried

🤣 0:40 Like the vibe here.. new sub

Trying to get better and better with every new video

They do look like twins, but it's a friend 😊

It's 2 different guys, but they look a lot alike lol

There were many protests from angry parents

Just got a camera which will be in our next video

@@theeJAYBUDshow stop skipping the song n have in mind that there are things called books. That one you call a friend ... test DNA!

@@bcif29 they're not skipping the songs, they're editing it out. @JJAYBUD it would be good to start a patreon for the full unedited versions/director's cut of these reactions so we can see all of it, plus it could earn ya money.

Yea I have to edit some bits out because of copyright reasons. We plan on making more videos until the end of the year and see how our following reacts and then we’ll see how a patreon would work out.

next album

Potentially The Bends

@@theeJAYBUDshow looking forward to it. Also, great video here! Huge fan of this one. Keep it up.

Nvm im dyslexic af LOL

Hey don’t hate us for our genetics
