The line, "You're full of s--t too, Guerra, that was a fist that hit you" is a reference to a fight Eminem had with John Guerra, who he saw kissing his wife outside a Detroit area bar in June of 2000. Police said Eminem hit Guerra with a gun, and Guerra received a settlement of $100,000.
I never get that line. I’m a huge Stan but Em sings in soldier “pistol whipping mother fuckin bouncer 6’2” and on the diss to Everlast, “Quitter” he says “I’m a pale faced killer whale, on his way to fuckin pistol whipping tail? “Or whatever the exact words are lol So why does he say that line? Always has been a line that doesn’t make sense to me.
@@kellygrn72 those were the charges. so he used it in the songs. Em kept to his version that he just punched him and the gun fell to the floor. anyone's guess at this point.
You guys right and futhermore in cleaning out my closet I believe he sung something about bigest mistake, but his best thing to do was to hide this gun in that situation"
This is one of Em's best tracks ever recorded for 3 simple reasons. 1) It basically tells you WHY every musical artist sings or plays an instrument. Because they are telling their stories, expressing their emotions, and getting through their issues the best way that they can, through their outlet of singing or playing an instrument. 2) If you were NOT a fan of Em, he is telling you his history and how it is being used against him by the media and authority figures because they can't tolerate the fact that he has the appeal to reach so many people. And why they do everything they can to tear him down, or try to silence him. 3) If you WERE a fan of Em, you can tell how each of the moments he was talking about were the TRUTH that the media and authority figures tried to keep you from knowing about in order TO CONTROL what you were SUPPOSED TO BELIEVE. That they were telling you to DENY WHAT YOU KNEW TO BE TRUE in order to destroy the person TELLING YOU THE TRUTH as they experienced it.
Sampled from Aerosmith’s “Dream On” - if you haven’t listened to that one yet, you should do it. Steven Tyler wrote his incredibly mature and philosophical lyrics when he was still a teenager, several years before Aerosmith was even a band.
@@dangermouse9348 I recognized the hook immediately when Em released this… because I was 7 years old when Aerosmith released ”Dream On”. Yes, I’m old lol.
One of his BEST! The first time I'd seen Em live & he dedicated 'Sing For The Moment' to David Smith - one of his young Irish fans who died the night before from cancer - Eminem had given him tickets for the show 💔 may he R.I.P. Em got choked up but got massive respect from the Irish crowd. 'Oxegen Festival' 2010, in Ireland UNBELIEVABLE!🔥 I've seen him 3 times - Oxegen, Tenants Vital (NI) and also at Slane Castle Ireland. He is one of the best live artists I've seen - OUTSTANDING! Peace to all the 'Stans' - from Ireland 💚
Real talk, this is one of them early songs in my upbringing that kept me on the straight and narrow. Eminem was a huge influence in my life growing up and his music helped me cope with all the bs I was dealing with. I remember hearing this song and feeling so overwhelmed with the message and while I don’t worship him (he’s repeated told us not to) I do respect and admire the hell outta him. My childhood was tough, very tough, and knowing he made it out of him and persevered, sheet, I can do anything. Em fan for life man, for real 💜
I'm 33 so I was that kid back in the 90s early 2000s when he was blowing up and he just open the doors for so many kids everywhere and parents just didn't know how to handle it
When I was in high school Marshall owed the athletic manger of my school a favor. He (Marshall) ended up bringing D12 to my high school and did a small benefit concert. The money from the ticket sales was sent to a few food banks around Detroit and River Rouge (where I grew up, it's a sister city to Detroit). I'm a massive nerd and was the president and vice president of a bunch of groups in school so I was able to be part of the welcoming committee. They were some of the sweetest dudes I've ever met. Super down to Earth guys.
The thing I like about this song, other than amazing lyrics, is that the music is from an amazing rock band that the parents were probably fan's of and criticized the same way by their parents. The cycle is never ending.
Absolutely. " influence by rock and rap" beautiful irony. Sometimes people just don't the depth of thought that foils into the way he composes his songs
🔥🔥 reaction. One thing I’ve noticed about Eminem that is different from most any artist is that he has the most devoted fan base. People make fun of the Stan’s for being crazy, but they have been ride or die since they discovered his music and had it speak to them. The people who don’t know just hear the profanity and decide that he is trash or overrated etc. But when you really start listening and going through his albums, it can actually change your life. I think he helps people find the balls to be themselves, no matter who they are, and give the finger to anyone who doesn’t like it. The more people listen, the more they learn to love themselves and to be brave and take chances. It’s crazy but true. When I’m going through a tough time or difficult challenge in my life, I start listening all over again and always find something new to take away.
In the land of killers, its a sin-less mind thats a sanctum. I think sanctum is a form of sanctuary, and in that world its so easy to get sucked down hard and fast, the only safe place is somewhere within… a mind that can withstand being in that environment and not be sucked down. Thats how I always took it
It’s so weird to get older and realize that there’s a whole plethora of people that don’t realize Eminem is tha rillest and illest and has been for a long time. So cool to see
THIS and it was a bit of a finger pointing of no you are with subtle racial undertones toward the rock and rap music industries. Not pretty just the way it was. Had a lot of crossover genre bands break out too though that made really good music like Rage Against the Machine, Linkin Park, and a slew of other bands and artists just trying to make that breakout scene.
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again- I’m primarily a metal head and I freaking love Eminem ! The man is a genius and everyone can relate to his words in some way. But he is the master at lyrics.
I listen to all kind of music, but deep down, I'll always be a rock chick. Still, from the moment I first listened to Eminem in the 90ies, back around "My name is" there was something special. Most would not expect me to listen to rap music, but Eminem always stood out. Because of his rhymes, because of his message, his skill. I hope, one day I'll experience him life, sadly never had the chance.
Watching him perform live is the best, I saw him in Melbourne in 2019 after he dropped Kamikaze and it was amazing, I want him to come back so badly now
Eminem, Dr Dre and Snoop are the first artists that really got me into rap music….. I’m a 50 year old white woman from the Midwest LOL….. love Eminem!❤
The way you explained Marshall Mathers just say a true lyrical genius Rap God goat on the highest level 49 still killing it also has been inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame thank God he got his flowers while we still have him
This is a song by Aerosmith - Dream On! You are correct! He was protested against by parents, media & the Vice President's Wife!!! She referred to him as a misogynist and told the press he was going to kill a woman any day now! He was put through the ringer! He addresses this again in Venom! He was someone these kids could to relate to! Especially the ones that had lives similar to his!
Square Dance on the Eminem Show. I love it when you do his oldest stuff, where it all started. He really shows why he is who he is now and the reputation he built.
there's is many incredible messages in this song, I love Em's confidence in his message as he speaks in defense of hiphop with his entrance in the game went from more isolated audiences to worldwide/no matter the skin color it's like Em telling the world it's okay, and here's why. but back to his confidence in the message he says "maybe they'll get it when we're gone, may our spirit live on in our lyrics that you hear in our songs" even if no one got it, even if he died before they got it, they would understand one day because he put his message out there in his songs.
I'm binging this channel. I just found it today. These are songs I've heard hundreds of times but I'm getting a new appreciation for them. Keep doing what you're doing.
Dawg, you gotta watch his live performances!! It’s his live performances that solidified his spot for me personally. It actually forced me to look at other rappers in a different “spotlight”! Because I quickly noticed that not all rappers or even singers/performers can do their own shit live. Em does it prolifically. Some artist can’t keep their same cadence or even remember their own bars. Which immediately shows me where they where in the studio/song making process.
Genuinely the best reaction to this song I've ever seen. You really pick up on the messages, even if you don't entirely know the intricacies of the message, you acknowledge the importance of it all.
This is one of my all time favorites from Eminem. My second favorite Eminem song is "till I collapse ". This song is Eminems latest song to go Dimond, tying him with only the Beatles to have 6 Dimond songs or albums. Eminem now has 3 of each.
This is one of the most unusual or rarest of my favorite songs in that I have literal chills from start to finish. I can’t think of another song that does that to me.
Hi from Saudi Arabia I became like ur reaction Since 20 years I’m still listening to this song. I’d know if Eminem is the one top singer in U.S? Because the lyrics unbelievable
“In the land of the killers, a sinners mind is a sanctum” a sanctum is like a shrine, or a holy place. Em is talking about how a sinners mind, normally condemned in normal society, is highly valued or admired in the context of killers, or the bad crowd.
When I heard this song, i started to respect him because he is one of best and most legendary rapper. He had a tough time with difficult issues but he was raised the game with music and never give up.
I found eminem at an important time in my life. I know he’ll never know me personally, but I also know that millions of people around the world found themselves through his music just like I did and that’s comforting. It’s nice seeing someone else being moved by the music.
I was in my late teens when he blew up. This was around the time of the Columbine shootings. I can't say for sure that this is referring to that, but the government tried to blame Em and marilyn Manson music for influencing the shooters. Sorry if this was already in the comments. There are too many for me to get through
Very nice breakdown. And this was my song when i was 16 and going thru alot of sh!t in my life during the time. This song kept me from suicide many times
Em talking about other people doing stuff he has said is a reoccurring theme. "But what's this shit you said about you like to cut your wrists too? I say that shit just clownin', dawg, come on, how fucked up is you?" Who woulda thought Slim Shady would be somethin' that you woulda bought That woulda made you get a gun and shoot at a cop I just said it I ain't know if you'd do it or not
The parents of these kids who are mad at Eminem and blaming him got the same kind of shit from their parents when they were listening to bands like Aerosmith. Sampling one of their songs is a nice nod to that and I'm sure the members of Aerosmith were more than happy to contribute to the message.
YAAAAAAAAAS!!! Finally!!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!!! Also, the sample in the chorus comes from Aerosmith’s “Dream on”. Yes! This song and Toy Soldiers are my two favorites. I’m so happy you’re trying to understand Em. I’ve loved him since he first came on the scene with Dre. I was born in ‘74, so my rap was RUN DMC, The Fat Boys, Beasties, etc. Em is SPECIAL. Super special!! Listen to his interviews. He ALWAYS gives mad props to old school rappers you’ve never even heard of. He said, “Oh, I know I’m a guest in the house of hip hop.” He’s so humble. I love recovered new Em in interviews now. It’s cute because he’s actually shy.
I'm from Ireland and I'm 21 years older than you. I'm enjoying your reactions to Eminem as iv been a Stan from day one! I would love u to react to medical man with Dre or cloraceptic remixes. when ever u can one day, go through music to be murdered by side a and b and see how more technical he has become. Keep the great work going. Much respect from my country in Ireland.
This song played over and over again in my CD player/Walkman as a youth. I was also rocking blue bandanas under my beanie while living under my step dads roof when my pops left at 10. My best friend was T from Compton and he helped me be street tough. My Mom also wouldn’t let me get my ears pierced so I pierced them anyways. Eminem was everything to me back then. Then came 50 cent, Game, Kanye Wayne and Kanye carried me though after Eminem. Then Drake has ruled supreme ever since.
I love it when you notice that it’s the clean version and are like nope not for me I need the swear words lol first time commenting but I love your vids and enjoy how you’re doing your own thing!! You go man!!
Every Stan hits a point in their life when they realize that they are walking without shoes...a Stan's shoes just happens to be Em's parental advisory sticker lol. It's like his seal of authenticity. To make sure you are getting the pure, uncut, full bodied Eminem experience...please, use your headphones. LOL
Any music that wasn’t mainstream or accepted by our parents and the powers that be has always been the center of controversy and blamed for everything. Music is an outlet for emotions but artists get blamed for things that happen. Even Elvis Presley went through this. That’s why In one of his songs he says “he’s the worst thing since Elvis”
I'm glad you don't do "clean" versions of songs. I hate censored music.
Censoring Eminem is like drinking alcohol free beer
Clean version sucks
Really? Why
Same my man
I agree!
One of the most brutally honest 3rd verse of the "Rap genre" ever recorded.
The line, "You're full of s--t too, Guerra, that was a fist that hit you" is a reference to a fight Eminem had with John Guerra, who he saw kissing his wife outside a Detroit area bar in June of 2000. Police said Eminem hit Guerra with a gun, and Guerra received a settlement of $100,000.

@@kellygrn72 those were the charges. so he used it in the songs.
Em kept to his version that he just punched him and the gun fell to the floor.
anyone's guess at this point.
i love that because even though he was charged with it he has millions of fans singing along to that line saying that it was a fist
You guys right and futhermore in cleaning out my closet I believe he sung something about bigest mistake, but his best thing to do was to hide this gun in that situation"

i love “Dream on” and also “sing for the moment” both superb songs
I'd second this.
@LFR JoJo should definitely listen to "Dream On".
@@imweakfordeaky I was a bit older than you lol
This is one of the best hip hop tracks ever. I could live the rest of my life without hearing rap god but this track lives in my Playlist forever.
For me it's not afraid when that song came out it was on the radio constantly
I have the same with the way i am, very similiar tracks
@@robertsuchy2369 Yeah, that's another one.
This is such a deep song. "I guess words are a motherfucker. They can be great, they can degrade, or even worse, they can teach hate." So powerful.

This is accurate. I’m this age people need that more so even than when it came out. People are terrified to deviate from the norm.
In the land of killers, its a sin-less mind thats a sanctum.
I think sanctum is a form of sanctuary, and in that world its so easy to get sucked down hard and fast, the only safe place is somewhere within… a mind that can withstand being in that environment and not be sucked down.
Thats how I always took it
Pretty much every Em song that samples rock music ends up crazy good.
It’s so weird to get older and realize that there’s a whole plethora of people that don’t realize Eminem is tha rillest and illest and has been for a long time. So cool to see
I love your comment “let’s just forget skin color” I wish our country could just do that.
This is my favorite Eminem song.
This and Soldier are my 2 current favourites
You know it's a banger when 2 decades later the song can still hit and better STILL be revelant
When he switched to dirty. That was a real moment
you have to go back to the 50s when people call rock music devil music in the late 90s it was rap music because it is real emotion,
THIS and it was a bit of a finger pointing of no you are with subtle racial undertones toward the rock and rap music industries. Not pretty just the way it was.

Same! I listen to Rock for the most part, but Eminem is just different. He has the same angst that rock does, but he’s a poet at the same time.
@@BurgoYT I'm in Europe, but he never gave that many concerts here, never had the chance... I hope, I'll one day
@@librasgirl08 hopefully one day then! I’m also hoping he’s gonna come back here because he rarely tours at all

the best eminem song of all time in my opinion🔥🔥🔥

Ohhh one of the best eminem songs i really like that song too

"Eminem - Business " next one from The Eminem Show !
Yoh fr! That’s one of my favorites 🔥
A JAM
This was probably the most thoughtful reaction to the lyrics that I've heard on any reaction. You interpreted it perfectly.
My favorite song EVER from Em!!
F^&@ the haters
Dawg, you gotta watch his live performances!!
It’s his live performances that solidified his spot for me personally. It actually forced me to look at other rappers in a different “spotlight”!
Because I quickly noticed that not all rappers or even singers/performers can do their own shit live. Em does it prolifically. Some artist can’t keep their same cadence or even remember their own bars. Which immediately shows me where they where in the studio/song making process.
Like industry plants for xample
Genuinely the best reaction to this song I've ever seen. You really pick up on the messages, even if you don't entirely know the intricacies of the message, you acknowledge the importance of it all.

Nice pick. One of the best songs ever written in my not so humble opinion. This whole album was .... something else.
Thank you for stopping the edited version and finding the explicit one
one of his most real songs...he got it! music can be there for you when u don't have anyone else
Hi from Saudi Arabia
I became like ur reaction
Since 20 years I’m still listening to this song.
I’d know if Eminem is the one top singer in U.S?
Because the lyrics unbelievable
He is not, but he was the most popular artist at one point in time in the early 2000s. Salaam alaikum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuh
“In the land of the killers, a sinners mind is a sanctum” a sanctum is like a shrine, or a holy place. Em is talking about how a sinners mind, normally condemned in normal society, is highly valued or admired in the context of killers, or the bad crowd.
It’s not just one of his best but one of raps best
one of my fave songs of him. im from the 90s:)
My favorite e
Eminem song hands down... he is the GOAT
When I heard this song, i started to respect him because he is one of best and most legendary rapper. He had a tough time with difficult issues but he was raised the game with music and never give up.
Thank you for switching out to the unedited version.

Good man. No censored versions required.
Great reaction!!! As usual!! And thank to the clean version reaction!!
Em talking about other people doing stuff he has said is a reoccurring theme.
"But what's this shit you said about you like to cut your wrists too?

Who woulda thought
Slim Shady would be somethin' that you woulda bought
That woulda made you get a gun and shoot at a cop
I just said it
I ain't know if you'd do it or not
That's from the song Stan
Aerosmith!! And the fact that he got Steven Tyler's approval to do this is EPIC!!! One of the best mash ups ever!!!
The parents of these kids who are mad at Eminem and blaming him got the same kind of shit from their parents when they were listening to bands like Aerosmith. Sampling one of their songs is a nice nod to that and I'm sure the members of Aerosmith were more than happy to contribute to the message.

One of THE most intelligent people in any genre of music, keeps it real, always speaks the truth. His turn of phrase is sublime 👌
The thing I love about you is that you have all ur dad's swag but you also have your own swagger that I can't even explain respect JoJo
If I remember correctly Steven Tyler of Aerosmith loved Eminem's use of this song, and are big fans of Em's.
This is my favorite song from Eminem. And the sample is from my favorite song of Aerosmith - Dream On. Just listen to it, you won't regret it
They were literally protesting eminem in the streets not wanting his music to be released
YAAAAAAAAAS!!! Finally!!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!!!
Also, the sample in the chorus comes from Aerosmith’s “Dream on”.
Yes! This song and Toy Soldiers are my two favorites.
I’m so happy you’re trying to understand Em. I’ve loved him since he first came on the scene with Dre. I was born in ‘74, so my rap was RUN DMC, The Fat Boys, Beasties, etc.
Em is SPECIAL. Super special!!

Great reaction, by the way, you should make a discord where people suggest reactions and stuff
Eminem really gave his audience an outlet for their young aggression.
Let’s make him cry guys, check out going through changes by Eminem
Please react to more Nirvana! (Sappy is a very underrated song)
The sample is Aerosmith, Dream On, a fucking awesome song in it's own right

My best friend was T from Compton and he helped me be street tough. My Mom also wouldn’t let me get my ears pierced so I pierced them anyways. Eminem was everything to me back then.
Then came 50 cent, Game, Kanye
Wayne and Kanye carried me though after Eminem. Then Drake has ruled supreme ever since.
It's not really focused only on his music but to all the rappers and artists out there who give inspiration to the kids out there.
That rock bit is so good
Thank you man, you just made me appreciate this song once again!
In 2022 I take for granted this was released the same year that 20 year olds were born
Jojo you're cool AF
I love it when you notice that it’s the clean version and are like nope not for me I need the swear words lol first time commenting but I love your vids and enjoy how you’re doing your own thing!! You go man!!
Every Stan hits a point in their life when they realize that they are walking without shoes...a Stan's shoes just happens to be Em's parental advisory sticker lol. It's like his seal of authenticity. To make sure you are getting the pure, uncut, full bodied Eminem experience...please, use your headphones. LOL
That's "Dream on" by Steven Tyler and Joe Perry
3rd verse is a top 10 verse for me
Bro I've watched like 3 reactions to this song and you're the first one to know what a sanctum is
love that you make a point to not cuss in your videos but refuse to listen to clean versions lol
Start recognizing the time for the songs you react to! This is may 2002.
Especially when you connect with it.
Guerrero was a man who said Eminem pistol-whipped him. Eminem is saying it was not with a gun it was just his fist
He's a fkn lyrical genius! Always has been....BTW, that's Joe Perry playing that guitar
Very smart analysis for a 20-year old! Very intelligent. 🙌🏾
Any music that wasn’t mainstream or accepted by our parents and the powers that be has always been the center of controversy and blamed for everything. Music is an outlet for emotions but artists get blamed for things that happen. Even Elvis Presley went through this. That’s why In one of his songs he says “he’s the worst thing since Elvis”
Instantly switched to the uncensored version, my man 👍
ur knowledge and understanding is brilliant man! great channel
The hook and beat are from Aerosmith, Dream on
Killed this reaction no doubt
This is a poem, yes
I’m sorry to say this, but Eminem has been the GOAT since he came out in the 90’s. I was one of the kids who’s parents wouldn’t let me buy his album
The outro at the end was provided by the legendary Joe Perry. ( Guitarist for Aerosmith.)
