Feb 19, 2023·editedThis song is f***ing nuts.
I’m not really an Em fan like that anymore, but the early stuff is amazing. How did he go from this to the choppy, dad joke bar flow?
Just listen to the flow, cadence and delivery over this insane beat with the Shady voice to make it all hit 100% perfectly. It’s the best exploration into the Shady persona for me too.
I love how intentionally corny and awkward it is. It’s like, “yeah, I’m the white boy, but f*** it, I can spit nice”. I always found his early stuff to have a surrealist quality to it, so the corniness was a part of that and a part of the mystique around him. Plus, when he did the serious stuff like ‘The Way I Am’, it hit even better due to the contrast. Now, when he tries the corny s***, it just IS corny. When he tries the serious stuff, it is even cornier because he can’t slow down that stupid flow
The voice is also a big component of his greatness then.

For real. Song is also smarter than it seems. The whole irony around the ‘I don’t exist’ premise showing white America how f***ing stupid they are

The way he makes these bars work:
I'm cancerous so when I diss you wouldn't want to answer this
If you responded back with a battle rap you wrote for CanibusSlightly off beat but also perfect delivery

Old Em would have been too afraid of being thought of as corny to make Not Afraid.

Eminem has a career right now because of niggas like me.
Y'all stuck in the past ass niggas can keep touching yourselves to SSLP to Encore era Em, just know that other people have different preferences.

Feb 19, 2023I think my favorite instance of that flow/delivery was the wake up show freestyle. Especially over that second beat

Watching this video reminds me how wild it was when the music video version of a song had drastically different lyrics than what you would hear when you popped in the album
