I'm probably 15 years older than you. Imagine being 18 when he came out and being able to follow his career from 1999 to now. Waiting for each album (repeating that album until the next one dropped), going to see him in concert, and seeing him grow. All the while relating to most of what he's saying and if not at least appreciating his art. I envy you for being able to just go listen to it ALL right now! He was/is such an open book and that is why so many relate to him and would ride or die for him without ever knowing him (Stans). Eminem put his heart into his music and because of it built one of the most loyal fan bases ever. This is why whenever a new Eminem song or album drops there are so many people waiting and excited. He has a fanbase that stretches from 15-year-olds to 65-year-olds and every single fan feels they have a (probably unhealthy) close connection to the man. That is why when people see Eminem slander on Twitter or YT, there is such a strong reaction. There are levels to this sh!t and Eminem is on one of the highest levels where only a few other artists from any genre sit. /rant
Actually you're 21 years older than him ( he was born in 02) as am I, I remember being 18 in 99" when Eminem first came out , watching him grow as an artist has been a blessing because he has touched so many with his music and you're right his real day 1 fans can be crazy when people try and drag him especially when the best artists in hip hop have goated him.
I was 19 in 1999 and I've ALWAYS been able to relate to em(like most ppl). I love the fact that you appreciate his skills... I'm a sub if your pops too and he holds em up too. Love watching your reactions jojo
Only been following your channel for a few hours nd mostly wit em's stuff (btw nice 👍🏼🙂 listening to 🔫 n 🌹) im a bit older and know ALL the music your reacting to and its awesome to see the next generation appreciate yesterday's classics..!!! Glad your journeying down so many avenues..
When Em puts his heart on his sleeve, and gets "really personal" with his story-telling, the only thing you can do is sit back, strap in, and hang on for dear life. Because you WILL be going for one hell of a ride and amazed at just how emotionally connected you feel to the song.
You're doing great with the breakdowns. Eminem always hated the fame part because he can't go anywhere and people taking shots at his daughter. He overdosed and almost died. Check out Deja Vu. When he mentions doodie he's talking about his best friend Proof who got murdered.
People saw the features on the track list and started hating on it hard before even a single song came out. Then the album came out and everyone already formed their own opinions and didn’t want to admit they were wrong so they doubled down on the hate and the album still went multi-platinum. I love in this album that you don’t hear anyone else do at the end of the first song he overdosed on pills and almost died and the next song he is talking about how he wished he could rewind time and at the end of the second song he rewinds the album back to the start of the last verse of the previous song and gives an alternate verse where he flushed the pills and walked away instead of taking them. He has three daughters. His biological daughter Hailie with his ex Kim, Kim’s daughter from another relationship, and Kim’s niece because she and her husband were heavy into drugs and couldn’t take care of her. As soon as he became famous he also adopted his half brother who was 15 at the time.
Em has 3 daughters. Hailey is his biological daughter, but he also adopted Kims sisters daughter. Kims sister was sick, and later died. Her daughter, Alanya (Laney) lived with Em and Kim. He also adopted Whitney. Kim got pregnant while she and Em where broken up and Em adopted the girl. Laney is the oldest, then Hailey and Whitney is the youngest. You see both Hailey and Laney in the musicvideo for Mockingbird😊
One of the first reaction channels I’ve seen other than Knox or Shaq that genuinely listened and caught the serious shit Eminem was speaking on. I love the fact that you really listen to every single word. ❤️ these songs make me tear up every time.
We've watched you learn who Em is. You have a big heart and yes it hits deep. I don't think he makes music to keep his rep, I think he'd explode if he didn't let all those feelings out in rap. It's his heart, soul and therapy. You're awesome JoJo no matter what you're reacting too.
I really really recommend you to listen to "sing for the moment" (the dirty version if possible). Believe me you won't regret it, it's easily in Em's top 10! Keep it up!
Oh yea.. he was in the hospital on xmas which is haileys nday (dec 25th)... And doody is Proof, his best friend, who got him into the rap battle game and went all the way with him till he got shot amd killed at a club in Detroit im 2006 and it broke em into pieces and he disappeared from the music scene for almost 2 yrs and got messed up on drugs bad from then till 2008 xmas when he overdosed..
He gets the hate from African-American due to his skin color (which is so stupid and ignorant) he also gets hate from some Caucasians because he raps. You are so mature and smart and that is why I watch your reactions. Once again F@#& the haters. Don't let them get to you. I'm Mexican-American not Caucasian
Glad there's young people actually giving Eminem a chance, I remember being young and thinking older music sucks, the way Eminem raps is just different the way he puts words together is fkn amazing, I loved his inner serial killer/kidnapper that he let out on Relapse album, I wish he'd do more of that today when he's so much more advanced. When it comes to actually Rhyming he is the best hands down and anyone who denies that hasn't heard a full album
He had a big pill issue especially after his friend from D12 died. He was able to pull himself out and get sober and become even bigger then he was. He is my favorite rapper ever.
👏👏👏 THANK YOU for speaking facts Jojo! Look at what Em has done for the rap game worldwide. And he ain't a "guest in hip hop'" - he helped build it and therefore he should be shown the respect he's EARNED! Watching and listening to others try to discredit him is CRINGEWORTHY - please accept his genius and STFU! Appreciate the talent of this man - a *TRUE* Artist in every sense of the word🐐✍
I have followed your dad for a while (love him!) And recently started following you. It's been nice to watch you grow and really pick up things that others don't and see your perspective with em reactions. Keep grindin JoJo! You're doing GREAT!
love the emotion boss. shows your heart brother, dont worry about crying bro -- I've done the same at shit that moves me. Ain't nothing "non-manly" bout that
What do you mean no one thinks of him as a goat. Everyone I know and I mean everyone knows he’s the best rapper ever to do it. He’s not just a rapper, he’s an artist. He’s gonna be in the hall of fame this year, where’ve you been? Lol He keeps breaking records because everyone listens to him. Maybe you and your friends didn’t like him so you don’t know but the rest of the world considers him the goat. Hell, it’s not just Americans that like him. Every county in the world. He’s huge, you have to listen to the news more often. I don’t mean any disrespect but he has the hugest fan base in the world and you’re acting like he deserves more respect when he’s breaking records daily lol just sayin..
This song made me 😢 for a moment.. its a 2 song story.. castle then arose.. this is one for the books when it comes to his life... Walk on Water is a Great one when it comes to the TOUGH struggle he goes thru over the years with pleasing everyone...! Walk on water
when he was talking about falling on somebody’s body and not able to save him, he was referring to his best friend proof. proof was shot in 2006 and eminem was devastated, so his drug addiction worsened and he overdosed in 2007. proof was eminem’s childhood best friend, they used to rap together
This is that storytelling that most artists in ANY genre can't do. Eminem is one of if not the best in hip hop when it comes to storytelling and pulling some sort of emotion out of you.
Arose “I’m try to keep his legacy alive where’s NATHAN” I BURIED MY BIG BROTHER MY BEST FRIEND 08/23/2012 my brothers name was NATHAN ALLEN SOLOMON PHILLIPS THANK YOU EMINEM
Em almost died from an overdose of valium and vicodin equalling 4 bags of heroin in 2007! At the worst point he was taking 60 pills of valium and 30 vicodin pills! He was in this state because of his complicated relationship with his daughters (as you said), the death of his "best friend" and fellow band member, Deshaun Holton (aka Proof) in 11/4-2006 as well as the 2nd split between him and Kim after trying for 3 months in the beginning of 2006.
You wanted to know about his children, he has one biological daughter, Hailie, and adopted the daughter of his Ex wife's sister Alaina, her mother couldn't take care her, so she grew up at his place, before it became official. He adopted the child of his Ex with another man, too. Stevie came out as NB recently. Nathan is his 14 years younger half brother he gained custody of, when he was facing foster care at 16, when Eminem was 30. So he raised 4 children. His little brother has 3 children with his long time girlfriend, so Eminem was right, he became a good father, he had a good role model in Eminem after all.
This is from revival I think ....the album every body says sucks..but no its one his best ..alot of real music in it ..people just didnt like it because he wasnt being crazy shady ..he was getting stuff off his chest
There is alot by him about his life ..he will make you cry ..lol..piss you off...he can hit every emotion .thats why hes one the best ever...get the end he flushed the pills that almost killed him right after saying i get it ..hes not doing it anymore for money ..its therapy for him ..
He has his biological daughter Hailey he also adopted her cousin liane she was Hailey’s mom’s twin sister’s daughter who died of drugs he also adopted Hailey’s younger sister that her mom had with another man
You gotta check out Stepping stone it his version of the fallout of d12 really deep. Love your content the breakdown and understanding your giving his music one love ❤️
You can hear a little Pac influence in the 1st verse (the way he pronounces words in the "being healthy" rhyme structure). Arose follows suit. I've never really listened for Pac's influence on Em until you played these 2 songs.
Obviously, Lord Jamar had never heard these songs. He claims that Em hasn't ever said anything in his songs. There are many examples that show that to not be true.
You really did these two tracks justice. That was from the album that everyone said was trash. But hey, if you need a pick me up, here is a video of Hailie answering that question about how she feels about her dad and his music. ruclips.net/video/X8RPALSQKCI/видео.html

Arose hits me majorly. I cry everytime I listen to it. After 2 overdoses I am 13 years sober.
If you never thought Em would go through things like this, you should also check out Going Through Changes if you haven't already done so
Everytime I listen to that t starts thundering in Red Dead Redemption 2

God damn you said exactly what I was thinking at the start of this reaction. His production game goes so unnoticed!

Don’t care what the critics say, Revival is gonna be a *classic*
Right! People hate this album and I think it's one of his best. I listened to it one night and was blown away by how good it is.
It's just people being butt hurt about the album cover and not being able to take criticism against "agent orange".

Definitely Cleanin out my Closet then Headlights afterwards

GREAT REACTION. Really well thought out insights!
This song is telling about when he overdosed on pills and almost died. its a tear jerker
This is that storytelling that most artists in ANY genre can't do. Eminem is one of if not the best in hip hop when it comes to storytelling and pulling some sort of emotion out of you.

You can hear a little Pac influence in the 1st verse (the way he pronounces words in the "being healthy" rhyme structure).
Arose follows suit. I've never really listened for Pac's influence on Em until you played these 2 songs.
OMG I'M NOT READY 😭

Only found your channel a couple of weeks ago but I'm a eminem fan myself I'd recommend the song untitled I think its called from an old album
Yo check out mush by Eminem
If you feel this then maybe try “coffin”. It’s different story but clever
Definitely not a diss😂😂
