And when they r now they always say, "THIS WAS AMAZING/BEAUTIFUL! OMG y didnt i hear this when it came out?" Its crazy but what matters i guess is that they c it now 🤷 better late than never right? 💯

I cried So Hard, for a long time, listening to Castle and Arose. One of the things that separates Eminem from most, is his willingness to sink into his most painful moments, so the emotion is right for the song. Some ppl write it, but they are still like most of us, and run from that Raw Pain. He embraces it, and leaves it all on the track. I still find myself in awe of it sometimes.

Thanks Knox! This is the best breakdown I've ever seen of these incredible songs. Here's a couple of things that I liked. When he says "Consider them last four minutes as the song I'da sang to my daughters..." that line comes exactly at 4:00 into the song. Castle ends with "Shit, I don't know" and Arose with "Now I know". And also he was rushed to the hospital and almost died on Christmas eve 2007, (Hailie's birthday is on December 25th). And he woke up the next day, on Christmas of 2007. A Tuesday... Damn, it gives me chills! And this is maybe a stretch but the first word that Eminem says on Revival is "Why?" (Walk On Water) and he finishes with Arose and the "Now I know" line. I love Revival and it's so strange to me that most people consider it Eminem's worst work. It's so emotional and personal. Bad Husband it's great too. You should check it out. He talks about how he was a shitty husband but a good dad. It continues the journey he started with Headlights when he finally forgave his mother and actually apologized to her. And Bad Husband is Em saying sorry to Kim. It shows how much he has evolved as a human being.

Not a stretch at all! Em is the goat, he meant to do it! It’s not just “why” though, it’s “why… are expectations so high?” The WHOLE album is him trying to answer this question, either by flexing lyrically showing that he’s the greatest rapper or by personal songs looking at himself and how strong he is, the fact that he’s survived death when he overdosed and came back stronger, comparing himself to Jesus (like walk on water) and his revival, there are also plenty of other biblical references on the album(cuz ems a big Christian) such as songs like River, relating to Jesus being baptized in the river (washing his sins away) there’s so many crazy good details, that’s why this is my favorite em album. All of his albums have good songs, but this one has a message and purpose for the album as a whole, as if the album is one giant song

In these lines Eminem also uses extensive audio-related wordplay: “tape” and “Percocet”, where the “cocet” part sounds like “cassette”; “Cut down on the Valium”, where Valium is homophone for “volume”; also it is followed by “I'da heard”; “Definite” sounds like “deafening” crazy how Em can use several different words but keep extending his bars with just his flow alone that takes true MC talent!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Em has worked with her before, in "25 to Life", "Almost Famous", and "Survival" to name a few. Also the "Shit I don't know." And "Now I know." lines references Walk on Water where he asks "Why are expectations so high?". He begins the album asking a question and at the end of the album he has the answer.

Revival was Em being brutally real and introspective- everything from what he was feeling, to what he believed. He wasn't there to put out club hits, or jams, just raw skill from one of the greatest MCs in the game, speaking from the heart. And that's why he took the poor reaction to it so hard- because by dissing it, people were telling him that they don't care about skill, or him, they just want him to continue to be the angry, crazy puppet that exists only for their entertainment. And if he should dare to send a message, it better be something funny - like an obsessed crazy fan, because god forbid he makes you think about something. Revival isn't the album you want if you want mindless fun, or to bump in the parking lot. It's an album to put on and actually listen to - to make you think, as an Eminem autobiography, and to explore the craft that he's teaching a master class on.

Notice the multiple meanings in 'Arose. Em arose from being on the floor overdosing in the bathroom, and he arose after being gone for so long and feeling as though he failed us with Relapse. 'A rose' can refer to the show being over and the crowd throwing roses at Em as the curtains close or it can refer to how leaving the game would be bittersweet for him (ever rose has it's thorns, which can also apply to Em acknowledging his past mistakes in this song, he knows he isn't perfect). A rose can also apply to Proof (roses are thrown on caskets at funerals) Rest in peace to Big Proof. "Arrows" is another homophone for "Arose", the pain Em felt hurting his daughters, the split with Kim, letting his fans down, his relationship with his mom, Proof being gone...the pain of it all hurts him like arrows. So it's sextuple layered

I can't remember a song that expresses severe depression and fundamental doubt so closely. And at the same time it triggers overwhelming, painful love for the artist. I really believe that psychologists, psychiatrists, and neurologists without a depressive disposition should hear this song in order to better empathize with these patients. It's like being crushed by the world and absolutely lonely at the same time. Really absolutely lonely. Judging by this, a very banal remark: Eminem should now be considered for the Nobel Prize for literature at the latest.

Hey Knox! I hope you're doing great today. I appreciate you taking the time to react to both songs. They're both so amazing, aren't they? Did you know that the woman singing on 'Castle' is Liz Rodrigues? She's an incredible artist; her voice gives me goosebumps whenever I hear it. I have to admit, I'm a bit of a sucker for rappers singing. That's probably why I love 'Bully' and 'Crazy In Love' so much. Have you heard 'Crazy In Love' before? It's off Encore, a great example of Eminem singing instead of rapping. But don't worry, I like rap too! It depends on the artist. Oh, and for those of you who, like me, love to sing along to songs, I've included the lyrics for 'Castle' and 'Crazy In Love' below. Enjoy!: Castle: [Liz Rodrigues and Eminem:] I built this castle Now we are trapped on the throne I'm sorry we’re alone I wrote my chapter You'll turn the page when I'm gone I hope you’ll sing along This is your song I just want you to know that I ain't scared Whatever it takes to raise you, I'm prepared To do whatever, to do whatever December 1st, 1995, dear Hailie This is your song [Eminem:] You'll be coming out of Mommy's stomach soon I better do something quick if I'ma be able to support you I can barely support me, but as long as you're healthy That's all that matters for the time being But obviously assuming you will be Just thinking ahead, I’ma make it if it kills me Let’s see how far I can take it with this music I'm getting sick of chasing this illusion Sorry for sloppy writing The pen in my hand is shaking, please excuse me Dad’s a little nervous, but at the same time excited If I use this same energy while I'm saying rhymes and write them With the same passion and the same exact enthusiasm As I'm using in this letter, maybe they can feel me as I'm Trying to build these castles out of sand, baby girl For you to sit on the throne, I got plans, baby girl Welcome to Mom and Dad’s crazy world Love, Daddy, maple flavored kisses, buttered pancakes, and syrup [Liz Rodrigues and Eminem:] I built this castle Now we are trapped on the throne I'm sorry we're alone I wrote my chapter You'll turn the page when I'm gone I hope you'll sing along This is your song I just want you to know that I ain't scared Whatever it takes to raise you, I'm prepared To do whatever, to do whatever December 1st, 1996, dear Hailie [Eminem:] You got your momma's personality, same eyes as I got Her beautiful smile, but your ears are the same size as mine are Sorry for that, a little minor mishap But you'll grow into them, baby, I'm on the grind now I'm doing little shows, open mics, all-nighters at studios While I'm tryna keep the lights on Why does it seem like I'm so close to this dream, yet so far? I just keep steering, I'ma turn into someone I haven't the slightest clue what I'ma do if it falls through You took your first steps today, you'll probably walk soon My Infinite CD flopped, too many soft tunes They're talking bad about Dad, it's ticking me off too Makes me feel like I don't belong or something, ooh I think I might have just stumbled onto something new Got a prediction for the future, I'm hoping that you Open this envelope when you're older and it holds true [Liz Rodrigues and Eminem:] I built this castle Now we are trapped on the throne I'm sorry we're alone I wrote my chapter You'll turn the page when I'm gone I hope you'll sing along This is your song I just want you to know that I ain't scared Whatever it takes to raise you, I'm prepared To do whatever, to do whatever December 24th, 2007, dear Hailie [Eminem:] Now if you found these letters, I guess I better try to explain A lot's happened in between them since I rised to this fame I've said your name but always tried to hide your face This game is crazy, I wanted to claim my love for you, but dang I never knew it'd be like this, if I did I wouldn't have done it You ain't asked for none of this sh*t, now you're being punished?! Things that should've been private with me and your mother is public I can't stomach, they can take this fame back, I don't want it I'll put out this last album then I'm done with it One-hundred percent finished Fed up with it, I'm hanging it up, f*ck it Excuse the cursing, baby, but just know That I'm a good person, though they portray me as cold And if things should worsen, don't take this letter I wrote As a goodbye note, 'cause your dad's at the end of his rope I'm sliding down a slippery slope Anyways sweetie, I better go I'm getting sleepy, love, Dad… sh*t, I don't know Arose: If I could rewind time like a tape Inside a boombox One day for every pill Or Percocet that I ate Cut down on the Valium I'da heard everything But death is turning so definite, wait They got me all hooked up to some machine I love you, Bean Didn't want you to know I was struggling Feels like I'm underwater Submerged like a submarine Just heard that nurse say My liver and kidneys aren't functioning Been flirtatious with death Skirt-chasing, I guess It's arrivederci Same nurse, just heard say They're unplugging me And it's your birthday Jade, I'm missing your birthday Baby girl, I'm sorry I f*ck*ng hate when you hurt, Hai And sweeties, thank you for waiting To open gifts But, girls, you can just open 'em Dad ain't making it home for Christmas Wish I had the strength to just blow a kiss I go to make a fist But I can't make one, I'm frozen stiff I yell, but nothing comes out I'm crying inside, I shout My vocal cords won't permit me I scream, but it's not aloud You put your arm around mama To calm her, wow I just thought about the aisle I'll never get to walk us down Never see you Graduate in your caps and gowns It's 'bout to be 2008 How's this happening now? I've got so much more to do And Proof, I'm truly sorry If I let you down, but this tore me in two The thought of no more me and you You gave me shoes, Nikes like new For me for school Doody, I'm trying, but you You were the glue that binded So many things, time I'd give anything to rewind it I had to walk down my halls And constantly be reminded By pictures all on my walls And I couldn't sleep at night 'cause That image burned in my brain Of you on the table Me falling across your body Not able to stand to save you God, why did you take him? I'm tryna keep his legacy alive But I'm dying, where's Nathan? Little ladies, be brave Take care of your mother Smile pretty for pictures Always cherish each other I'll always love ya And I'll be in the back of your memory And I know you'll never forget me Just don't get sad when remembering And, little bro, keep making me proud You better marry that girl 'Cause she's faithfully down And when you're exchanging those sacred vows Just know that if I could be there, I would And should you ever see parenthood I know you'll be good at it Oh, almost forgot to do something Thank my father too I actually learnt a lot from you You taught me what not to do And Mom, wish I'd have had the chance To have one last heart-to-heart Honest and open talk to you Doody, I see you I go to walk to you And I can feel my soul leave my body And float across the room Nurses lean over the bed Pulling tubes out Then the sheet over my head Shut the room down Girls, please don't get upset I see those cheeks soaking and wet As you squeeze hold of my neck So forcibly, don't wanna let Me go, pillow drenched Emotional wrecks With every second each closer to death But suddenly, I feel my heart Begin to beat slow, then a breath Machines go (beep, beep, beep) Must've guessed the cheat codes to this shit I'm tryna rewind time like a tape Find an escape Make a beeline Try and awake From this dream, I need to re-find My inner strength To remind me Even if a steep climb I must take To rewrite a mistake I'm rewinding the tape (I don't want it) I'll put out this last album, then I'm done with it One hundred percent finished, fed up with it I'm hanging it up, f*ck it Excuse the cursing, baby, but just know That I'm a good person, though they portray me as cold And if things should worsen, but I bet you they won't I'm pledging to throw this methadone in the toilet Shred these old letters I wrote All that old pathetic loathing, closing credits can roll I'm proud to be back I'm 'bout to, like a rematch Outdo Relapse With Recovery, Mathers LP2 Help propel me to Victory laps Gas toward them and fast forward the past Consider the last four minutes as That's the song I'd have sang to my daughters If I'd have made it to the hospital Less than two hours later, but I fought it Came back like a boomerang on 'em Now a new day is dawning I'm up, Tuesday, it's morning Now I know

This one hit me alot harder than I expected, I literally cried throughout the video and as I listened to the songs, I'm a single father of 2, my baby daughter just turned 1 last month, I don't get to see her as much as I want to, busy with work and everything, I missed her first steps that she took on her own without needing to hold my hand to walk, not being able to see her every day kills me inside, the firsts of hers that I miss, kill me inside, I'm already stressing over not being able to see her all the time, so hearing these songs just made me an emotional wreck 💔😭

Thank you Knox Hill from Italy. You and Steve are really dope on explain these masterpieces and you make me love real hip hop.

Hi Knox, first of all, great work, your making the best reactions video on eminem IMO, because of your knowledge and the fact that your a rapper. I like when you go deep in finding the meaning of the rhymes and stuff. I would REALLY like if you can react to some MMLP2 Videos, like Evil Twin, Groundhog day, Baby, and more... It is his best album ever in my opinion, 90% of it is just crazy and i would like to hear your opinion about it. Thanks for reading me.

In these lines Eminem also uses extensive audio-related wordplay: “tape” and “Percocet”, where the “cocet” part sounds like “cassette”; “Cut down on the Valium”, where Valium is homophone for “volume”; also it is followed by “I'da heard”; “Definite” sounds like “deafening”.
