The second verse of Stay Wide Awake is one of the most technically impressive rap verses. He rhymes almost every single word while continuing to paint a vivid, horrific, serial killer picture in your head. When I listen to that song, I don’t listen for “enjoyment”, I approach it as if I’m watching a horror movie.
I’m happy more people recognize that. The flow is absolutely bonkers. One of the greatest flows I’ve ever heard imo.
The thing that makes it even more impressive is he's rhyming 13-15 syllable at a time during that second verse. The accent obviously helped to bend the words, but it's such a technically impressive track, especially with the flow pattern he went with. An Eminem classic for sure.
Relapse is just packed with multis, Em said he was learning how to write again after his overdose, so I'm not surprise he went all in on his rhyming.
Always was my favorite song lyrically. He fuckin snapped.
That entire track is one of the best there is in terms of rhyming. That second verse it's not just the words that rhyme, but the entire sentences.
I have to disagree. Though the rhyming pattern and melody he sets up in the verse is definitely impressive, I think the words he chooses hold it back a bit.
I think Tyler the Creator might’ve been a little exaggerated when he said it wasn’t ever topped. I mean, of the fourteen lines that follow the scheme he punctuates the final words and internal rhymes with the same words: “me,” and “see.” Eight times at the start of the line, five times on the first internal, and four times on the end.
Lyrically? It’s not _that_ great or complex, it’s mostly what surrounds it that amps it up - which, honestly is what rap is all about. Not to take away from the verse, I just don’t think it’s one of the best of all time. I think other Em verses have topped it easily, but still a real solid one on its own. Certainly not easy for most rappers to pen, that’s for sure.
Can't believe eminem thinks this is his worst album over revival and encore. I love relapse.
I can
Literally my favourite Eminem album
Revival is good album. Encore little less good. I love relapse too.
I think this album definitely aged really well and got better with time as well
Revival is his worst by far
I can't express what Beautiful meant to me growing up. I was only 7 when this project dropped so that song followed me through my childhood.
SAME
Same man, definitely holds a special place in my heart

Gutted he didn’t listen to my darling 🤔
@@Leon_FTP same tbh, wish he listened to the deluxe version not just the original
@@Leon_FTP careful what you wish for also
@@benw2004 The Refill one whould be even crazyier
This album took round 10 years to grow on people, and now it has sort of a cult classic status. I think it'll grow on you more with more listens to be on par with SSLP. But you missed the two deluxe tracks. I would strongly recommend giving My Darling a listen. Its the most surreal, unnerving, and genuinely scary Eminem song, and in an unexpectedly different way than the rest of the album. Would love to see a reaction just to that song!
Seconded, My Darling is amazing and unexpected. But also before that, make sure you listen to When I'm Gone from curtain call (it's a best of album but has a few original songs, this is the best.) It's sort of connected.
On the level of SSLP is a crime to humanity. No.
@Matt It’s a unique track for sure, not every song is go na be like it. But Same Song and Dance, Deja Vu, Stay Wide Awake are all Em in top form. but the thing about this album is it’s one of his most consistent tracklists. zero bad songs. also features his best production ever, his best rhyming ever, and is the closest thing he has to an actual concept album. Relapse is one of the best Eminem albums
Edit: not to mention his best album in terms of hooks as well lmao
Yeah my darling is such a damn good track !!
And yeah this album is a real grower…really was not a fan for a while but this album slaps now!!
"Careful what you wish for" is another song from the deluxe album that stood out to me personally. Must listen to it once
I love that song so much, one of the best on the album
Also all of the tracks on the "Relapse Refill Edition" are amazing. Especially "Elevator", just phenomenal.
Hello breaks loose, My Darling and more.
Elevator!!! Yes 🙌
Now what you know about buffalo bill
I hate how he didn't listen to My Darling :(
@@davidfromsouthpark9023 hell breaks loose is the most underrated song on refill.
Deja Vu is probably one of my favorite Eminem songs. As someone whose gone through and still currently going through alcohol and drug problems is a horrifyingly real accounting of the days in that state.
This album did so much for me when I was younger but has done even more since I've grown and really felt it all.
A real tear jerker bro
Congratulations on getting clean and good luck friend 👍
The hook is probably up there with his best too, his absolute best song
Yea once you have felt addiction yourself you have a much deeper understanding of a lot of music about the subject.
same here
This is the most underrated album Eminem has. Best Eminem album in my opinion. It shows his skills and creativity!
Tbh I only liked 5/6 songs of this one
It's a shame most of his creativity included stupid accents. 3AM for example sounded like he was doing a bad Jamaican accent
@@franklingoodwinJamaican?
If you think this is his best album ever you have seriously problems and that’s the nice way of saying it 😂 it’s not even top 4
@@jb55364 Yes, Jamaican on the chorus. Specifically when he says "must've killed them"
Stay wide awake is one of the best songs he’s ever made without a doubt
Big faxx. My darling and Deja vu are also damn amazing as well
Real talk!! Buffalo Bill & Music Box which are on Refill are great too, but tbh Framed is my favorite its Relapse like gem hidden on Revival.
@@21kubix21 Framed is amazing, almost seems like that was a cut song from relapse
@@21kubix21don’t forget elevator, which is one of his most motivational songs
Its one of his masterpieces.
Relapse is my favourite Eminem album. Love how unique it is.
Subject matter aside (simply cos it’s not for all), Stay Wide Awake is like the perfect track for people studying the game to learn how to structure a verse in terms of cadence, rhyme patterns and flows. It’s absolutely incredible
Stay Wide Awake is literally a CLINIC in how to bring double digit syllable rhyme schemes and hold an entire scheme through an entire verse (2nd verse) and stay on topic the entire time. Id say its possibly his most pleasant song ever haha
I think the third verse is better, the jabba the hut bar goes crazy
I think the third verse is better, the jabba the hut bar goes crazy
This album surprisingly improved over time, I will even go to say this is Em's 4th best album after SSLP, MMLP, and The Eminem Show. Lyrically and sonically this album was great it's just Em went heavy with the different accents across all songs which most people found irritating at the time of release. Even Em himself said he overdone it with the corny voices but I enjoyed the album. Much better than Encore for sure!
Its third best imo. It knocks SSLP out the water.
@@Uub27 Fuck no
@@deadsince1996 Track by track, ill usually take the Relapse song.
5th best for me. MMLP2 is slightly better imo.
@@Mr.Truxton good shout MMLP2 was a solid album too, that slipped my mind!
Please listen to the refill tracks. Specifically My Darling, Careful what you wish for, music box, and elevator. They were supposed to be sequel tracks but the sequel got scrapped. They tie very well into the album and give it more depot
Always been my favorite album of his. This album takes you out of your own body and into a that dark head space and uncomfortable, almost nightmarish, persona with him then throws you right back into reality when Deja Vu hits. It feels like waking up from a coma with him. The absolute genius of this album (and the Refill tracks) is something I don’t think we’ll ever see again
How is that even possible?
I think this is definitely my favorite Eminem album. Nearly every song is incredible from a production and lyrical standpoint in my opinion. Even the songs that are horrific are just insane lyrically. And I think Beautiful may be my favorite Eminem track of all time, it just really speaks to me and has spoken to me for years and years now.
peak eminem right here. The concept, rhymes schemes, production, themes and Em's hunger. Underrated album even for Eminem himself
One of my favorite concept albums. This was the return of the slim shady/ serial killer persona and I loved it. People didn't like this album that much when it dropped but it's gotten really popular over the years.
Oddly this is my favourite album from Eminem, it’s like a great horror movie. So thematic and unbelievably skillful
Crazy how these 4 tracks connect.
Old Times Sake- Eminem gets high off Dre’s smoke. Contact buzz.
Must Be The Ganja- Eminem is high and decides to take more drugs in this state.
Deja Vu- Eminem overdoses.
Beautiful- Eminems state after surviving the overdose.
Relapse is a Masterpiece
Relapse has always been one of my fave em albums, definitely a cult classic. Lots of people hate it, but those of us who love it REALLY love it. People sh*tted on it cause of the accents but imo, it's some of his most gritty and best stuff. Not bar heavy like his newer stuff but his flow and schemes on some of these tracks are legendary. And I love it even more after suffering through substance abuse as I can relate to it now due to my life experiences. He was going through withdrawals and watching alot of serial killer documentaries at the time hence the fcked up subject matter
Most underrated Eminem album!!
100%
Relapse is easily a top tier measure of Em’s pen. The rhymes are insaneeee
Agreed, this album has always been so impressive to me
Same song & dance was my anthem at 7 years old. Says a lot about my childhood.
There never has and never will be a another rap album like this imo. Truly classic
You should definitely do Relapse Refill it's got some of the best songs fr
Absolutely. Half the bangers are on there
Stay Wide Awake has some of the best rhyming schemes he’s ever done. It almost sounds like every word in each sentence rhymes lol
My favorite flow patterns from Em on this album.
i love ur channel :)
@@PubeHairForestFire 👀
Would love to hear a reaction to Refill. Some of my favourite tracks on this album is on that extension.
Great reaction, especially for the final song :D
Stay Wide awake is one of the best tracks ever made. I understand the content isnt for most but the track is one of Em's masterpieces.
You should have done the bonus tracks too ! There are some classics, like Taking My Ball, Music Box, Hell Breaks Loose and ofc My Darling. Such a great extent to the album.
Yesss
This album grows on you like no other. I used to think it was just okay, but now it's my 3rd favourite Em record
This album is frustratingly overhated and underrated to me! Incredible storytelling on this one! And sooo much energy! I really admire it even tho it’s obviously not something you put on too often
Yeah this album it's way better than Encore, people either love it or hate it, this it's probably his most complex lyrically album in terms of rhymes, maybe beaten by "Music to Be Murdered By", but even tho I'm not like a fan of EVERY song still it's hella entertaining to listen.
For example you have "3 a.m." a great introduction to the horror, ridiculous songs like "We Made You", "Stay Wide Awake" has videos on YT that show all the crazy rhyme schemes, he rhymes entire sentences, and songs like "Deja Vu" and "Beautiful" are master pieces, and I love "Underground", it's aggressive and full with energy.
The next album it's "Recovery", and that album it's great, interested to see your reaction to it.
One of my favourite Eminem projects. Underground the standout
Great but you should have done REFILL, that's the complete package 👌
Facts
The best songs on the refill
@@jamesronaldo2855 exactly except stay wide awake, same song and dance and bagpipes, the featuring with Weezy and kanye and drake, elevator, Buffalo bill and my favourite music box, refill is the complete package I swear
100
The beats on “My Mom” and “Deja Vu” are so FIRE!!! I wish Dr. Dre would make beats like that more often… Its too bad upon 1st time listening I couldn’t appreciate Dre’s beats b/c of the outrageous sh*t Em says in his lyrics lmao.
I love this album. I was 11 when it came out and I still listen to it today. I have the relapse refill version and it’s so great. I am a horror fanatic so this was right up my alley
EMINEM THE GOAT 🔥😈🐐 This is his best album for me, the metaphors, the wordplay, the vivid imagery, the storytelling, the rhyme schemes, the beats, the choruses, the internal and external rhymes in every track, 10/10 masterpiece, love this album and all hi song 🔥🥶🔥🥶🔥🥶🔥🥶🔥🥶🔥🥶🔥
bagpipes from baghdad goes crazy
I've always looked at this album as all three of Eminem's identities colliding and collapsing over each other, just coming apart at the seams
Yeah. His recent podcast with Paul would tie into that. He basically forgot how to rap and had to re-learn. Definitely some persona crossovers as a result.
mostly slim shady though
Love U Jon, you've been a good friend last couple of years.
Hoping any mental health issues are beeing resolved in the best way possible.
So good to see you enjoy, same song and dance. In the top ten of his discography for me! Definitely missing out on the deluxe tracks! Looking forward to seeing what you think of bad guy on mmlp2 and castle on revival when the time comes!
You guys are going to make him listen to Revival!? Poor bastard.
I’ve always loved this album and I knew people would come around one day. This was the last album he made before the huge switch to who he is now.
I listen to 3AM and Stay Wide Awake all the time. Definitely alot, but so audibly pleasing... they're just too good.
huh
this album is in my top 3 eminem albums this shit is crazy on a lyrical level
Loved this as a kid. I was way too young to listen to this at the time but still love it to this day
I think this album has the best beats of all of his albums. This is the only album for me where I don't skip a single song.
Personally, I love relapse, I love the beats, the flow, the rhyme schemes, the accents don’t bother me
Medicine Ball is without a doubt one of the most offensive songs he's written and I love that he 100% did it on purpose. "I guess it's time for you to hate me again" as an opener for a chorus, and man, that fucking BEAT. Gold.
Ayeeee! Let's go Jon, been a fan for 4 years, I absolutely love your reactions & your wise incite, you do a smashing job.
When I got more of a platform, I most definetly want to collab with you, cheers from Texas
Recovery is such a unique vibe. Looking forward to you getting there next.
Relapse definitely my fav Em album but only with the deluxe refill, u gotta hear it, my darling is the craziest shit ive heard to this day, music box is mad too
Amazing, underrated album. Rhymes are crazy, concept is tight and unique, and beats are fire
He was learning how to rhyme sober wen he done this , some hidden gems on hear for sure , it has aged well I think and now I like it more than I did 10 years ago
Underground definitely my favourite song on the album. 👌
Loving the Eminem journey Jon 🫡
underrated masterpiece
jesus I grew up on eminem and forgot about so many of these lyrics 😆. The entirety of Insane, Stay Wide awake, and the lesbian legs line on Underhround 😂
I personally have this above SSLP and TES. I love the concept of the album, the brilliant production and the insane rhyme schemes. The Accents don’t put me off either, they enhance the experience for me.
I want to see Eminem experiment like this a bit more personally (no that doesn’t mean I want Relapse 2, it just means I want to see him try new things more often). Hearing both sides of MTBMB, it seems like that’s what he will hopefully be doing in the future.
There's too much crap on here to even get close to that, but if you took the best tracks including refill, and made a genuine concept album, then sure.
Clearly our opinions aren’t the same. To be perfectly honest, this is my opinion on TES. I think if you removed songs like Drips and My Dads Gone Crazy, I’d enjoy it arguably more than the MMLP. As for the the SSLP, I thinks it’s overrated, the production isn’t impressive to me at all (I actually dislike the majority of it), and the rapping pales in comparison to his later work (especially this album).
Personally, I look at Relapse as the better SSLP. I know many would disagree with that, but I don’t blindly follow crowds. I feel my own feelings, think my own thoughts, and in conclusion, my Eminem opinions are very different from everyone else’s.
Looking foward to you listening to his entire discography.
Jon! Lana Del Rey's new song "Did you know that there's a tunnel under Ocean Blvd." came out today! Please react!!
I'm sorry but your completely wrong Jon. Beautiful is by far the best song on the album. this album is not about crazy lyrics or wordplay it's about the message, and that is what Beautiful is.
It's my favorite song of Em after mockingbird
Someone once said "if Relapse was an instrumental album it'd be a 10/10" and while I disagree I think it sums up the album pretty well
I think this is one of the most impressive rap albums from a technical standpoint. I think sonically and content-wise its not his best, and the accents are annoying to me, but i still recognize the point of them and how they allowed him to create unique rhymes and flows by pronouncing words in a weird way. I think this album has some of Eminem's best rapping by far, but I also cant say its something I return to often or would recommend to someone who isnt already a big Eminem fan.
One of the best albums of all time
Aaaaah I am so happy your reacting to Eminem’s albums! I am not the biggest Relapse fan although I love Crack a bottle but I can’t WAIT for you to listen to Recovery which I think it’s his best album on pair with The Eminem Show.
Dude, your facial reactions to some of his songs were cracking me up 😂
Relapse is a sleeper hit. A masterpiece in disguise because people expected something else at the time.
Crazy album, Eminem is able to really convey what a relapse feels like, the actions one would take. It's a very interesting and dark album to me, doubly so considering the direction his music went in the years after. Unrelated, but have you heard or considered listening to the album Luv 4 Rent by Smino? Regardless if you deem the album good enough for a reaction, it's been my favorite album this year to put on in the background, and Smino has a very unique style of Rap/R&B that is absolute ear candy if you've never heard his work before.
Relapse and recovery are outstanding albums, i don't put them any higher than his other albums as imo they're all top tier but these two albums both had a big impact on me so i developed a real appreciation for every single aspect of the albums. The lyricism, techniques, the beats, all of it. Having my own personal issues at the times they was released allowed me to be able to relate to both on a deep level! Amazing artistic ablity.
I'm most excited to see Jon's reaction to MMLP 2
Recovery is good but MMLP 2 is amazingly good
Bad guy and Evil Twin specially
His last album that could be considered a classic probably
Mmlp2 is far from a legit classic by my opinion
@@alix0788 I think it's his third best album
@@asadfarooque786 ok
Mmlp2 is meh at best. So many bad choruses, cringy lines/outdated references. This past decade is just unbearable.
@@asadfarooque786 fucking blasphemy
This album got tons of hate when it came out… then Recovery followed. We should have just accepted relapse 😂😂
It's crazy how the content of this is so unbelievably disturbing but it's one of my favourite albums of all time. It was the first CD I bought when I was 9 years old and I definitely shouldn't have been exposed to this from such a young age but as I've gotten older it's become such a crazy album for my life.
It's truly a horror movie inside of an album, in one sense it's capturing the mind of a twisted serial killer that was built through Em's research and enjoyment or documentaries and cases at the time, but in another sense it's a cautionary tale of his struggles with drug abuse and the darkest areas of the human mind. To this day I still can't get my head around how somebody sat down and made this project but it never fails to amaze me upon each revisit.
“Beautiful” is by far the best track, it’s shame that proof wasn’t around to let ‘Em know not to do that voice throughout the whole record
Honestly, to me accents sounds pretty good.
@@dub2juicy190 I agree. I get why people got tired of it, but it made every rhyme so interesting and different.
Stay Wide Awake is my favorite, utter lyrical perfection, but I understand it's not everyboy's cup of tea. Deja Vu is a close second
That’s what made it one of his best albums
I think deja Vu is the best song
Favourite Eminem album BY FAR
This is Eminem’s most lyrical album his rapping on this is amazing
Nobody could replicate this Eminem it’s insane how he bends his words
For me this is an album that all rappers hold to high regard because if you look at it from the perspective of creativeity and skill it’s 10/10
I hated Beautiful but I liked a lot of the songs off the albums like this is his darkest album. I had gotten my godmother addicted to Eminem😂 She loved the My Mom track and Insane and she’s like this is horrible laughing😂😂
The compose art like the ghost of Mozart, is a crazy bar it's genius.
Can't wait to see Jon's reaction to Insane.
Stay Wide Awake is absolutely top tier rhyming, and he’s doing all of that while painting that horrific picture
Absolutely crazy that it was panned so hard upon release, this is in the argument for top 3 Em albums in my opinion.
GOAT Album. Barz on Barz
There is a couple of very interesting songs in the deluxe version, would be great if you could check them out. And then there’s Relapse Refill of course.
6:00 what most of y'all came for
Fam already knew.
Crack a bottle wasn't going to be on the album until it leaked online. It then went on to win a Grammy for best Rap Performance by a Duo or Group.
Relapse is my favourite purely because its sonically the best album in my opinion
Relapse, Recovery, and MMLP2 holds a special place in my childhood
Basically the album that put the battery in Odd Futures back to rap about the things they did early on.
My favorite album of all time I get called weird because this album is usually last on everyone’s list and I understand kind of a weird concept but I still love it for some reason and it’s my favorite
Should have down the deluxe album missed about 10 tracks. I think my darling is one of the better ones
Definitely. That needs a reaction!
Man do I wish this was the deluxe album the 6 extra tracks are actually nuts, careful what you wish for is one of his best tracks. And underground is amazing.
Underground is fucking nonsense, but the hook is a banger.
I appreciate your open mindedness to the accents and embracing the incredible ryhme schemes and cadences on a first listen. I have been a fan of this album since its release. Also the beat to same song and dance is a sample of "one" by Metallica with the pitch changed. Probably why it sounds so firmiliar and sinister
Deja Vu is amazing.
I love this album so much, I actually randomly start singing the crack a bottle hook so damn often it's so catchy
Same song & dance is phenomenal
The Kendrick Lamar tap dancing in the end
12:05 spot on. Same Song & Dance is a masterpiece.
