You forgot the best lines 'sama lamaa duma lamaa'
Haider Hasan Homage to JJ Fad
Haider Hasan you assuming im a humin
Sama lama dooma luma you assuming I'm a human what I got to do to get it through to you I'm superhuman, Innovative and I'm made of rubber so that anything you say is ricochetting off of me and it'll glue to you,I'm devastating more than ever demonstrating how to give a muthafuckin audience a feeling like it's levitating, never fading, and I know the haters are forever waiting for the day that they can say I fell off they be celebrating,cuz I know the way to get em motivated I make elevator music,it's not hip hop it's pop,cuz I found a hella way to fuse it
isnt it "i make elevating music you make elevator music" ?
TheSurlax yeah
crazy how literally you can scroll through all of the comments and you will very rarely find a bad comment. emenim the GOAT.
Jakeyy I just found one
Oh Boi that's gonna change in the next weeks
Anon haha yes
GOaT stAnDs FoR GreATest OF AlL TiME dIpShiT!!11!!!!11111
i think i found one.
After 5 years this finally comes out 👍
Erick Ramirez you mean 4 years
@@twan9645 no he's right when he says 5
It came out in 2013
I think it did not go deep enough
TwanOfficial u mean 6
Is really disgusting to see despacito in the top
Maximiliano Amaral yes bunch of 3 years old kid
Maximiliano Amaral ik
DESPACITO
Name ´·,' you know who else could make a better song than despacito
My mom
Maximiliano Amaral well how else is people gonna learn how to sing along to the lyrical genius that is Luis Fonsi? lol
These videos only analyze the most basic & obvious lines. None of the intricate pop culture references or allegories. So pointless.
stephano malakay honestly
Exactly... Genius' videos on youtube are time-wasters... Just read what they have on their website... You'll even get more info there...
Because the song is meaningless lol
To be fair if they went into detail the video would he an hour long and the majority of viewers still wouldn't understand
I was waiting for the president's line
The fastest and most entertaining rap song in history so far
Savage Jazz nowhere near the fastest but definitely the fastest mainstream song
Most entertaining??🤣🤣
Judah Del Rio not "nowhere near" but not the fastest
Judah Del Rio ok I can see that
Tf have u heard
Eminem is 100% one of the most lyrically creative rappers of all time
3 minutes talking about a 6 minutes song HAHAHAHA
rAs - *_-hahah-_*
What’s fun?
Someonee06 videogames, movies, reading when in the mood, and spending time with friends and family.
Rasskhov P , wait , killing your family is not fun?
*Em forever* 👌
you guys gotta stop hating on this man, he can still rap. yes even after revival
Why? .-.
stop talking like you know some shit man he is and he will be the best of all time. just stop.
Barely anyone liked Encore. And Relapse and Recovery were both iffy on popularity. But MMLP2 was dope. Goes for show that he can always make a comeback.
my babies mom bitch called me an angry blonde
Onur Ata lmao he isn’t even the greatest of all time right now. He dropped 3 trash albums in the last century, that’s not goat status.
6 minutes slim shady you’re on
Link Pellow I always thought that was a throwback to MMLP1 where he's like "i promised the fuckin critics I wouldn't say fucking for 6 minutes (6 minutes slim shady you're on)"
C0DZombies12
Exactly my thoughts!
C0DZombies12 same lol
C0DZombies12 because it is, you're right. It's a throwback, also referred to song's length
Yep can't believe they slept on this ...
LMAO barely scratched the lyrics. Didn't even talk about that Canibus shade.
AFFE NOWU Genius half assed this video.
FreshBeats all genius song explained (excluding verified) are like this
They'll need like half an hour to explain the full thing lol
AFFE NOWU yeah "samaa Lamma damma" very creative lyrics.
Ronaldo Owino you do realize this is a throwback to an old rap song by JJ fab from ‘89
No matter what happens in the future Eminem will go down in history as a rap legend-sorry haterz☺️
Sister Stina ye I can hell ur a bitch lmfao
Jullian Molina *tell
@@jullianmolina8842 you're right I am
You mean as a "Rap God" ? XD
@kirdneK true it's so good!
"For me to rap like a *computer* it must be in my genes / *jeans* , I got a *laptop* in my *back pocket* "
Kinda late lol
The rap god is coming back though
"Bodied: the soundtrack" by Eminem +production by dr.dre and mike will made it ....this fall
J.T. R he also has a slim shady style album finsh but when he knows he doesnt have trump supporters listening to him he'll drop it
xendless SSNOW I didn't hear anything about that
xendless SSNOW thats a complete lie, all bullshit
J.T. R source? Would love it tho!
jaap ten dijk look it up lmao its not hard information to find
Neither Shape of You, nor Despacito deserves to be at the top. Nothing special in those songs but Rap God is an expression of pure emotion of a life lived the hard way...
@Team Hessi I have every right of stating my opinions on this free video sharing platform. If you have a problem with that, kindly ignore my comment :)
@Team Hessi I seem to detect 3 likes on my comment and none on yours. Does that mean something to you? Or do I have to spell it out?
@Team Hessi Shut up
@Team Hessi No but by your logic I hurt yours
Shape Of You was pretty dope
The best rapper in this dimension. stop playing with this man
LilWesley mhm... Was revival already released in your dimension?
LilWesley hmmm I don't think anyone has said wrong stuff about him yet
Uhm, what?
Alexisch Behrend was caterpillar released in your dimension?
Rosegold caterpillar is pure fire!!!!
I thought he says “six minutes” because from mmlp he says “six minutes slim shady your on”
In "Remember Me"?
Yeah, i also think that's why he said it, considering the fact that the album was a sequel to the MMLP 1
Yes because the second LP have some references on the first LP like "Bad Guy" etc.
sama lama duma lama needs more explaining
its a throwback to JJ Fab from '89
cobrexu ahh thank you
A line from the female rapping group JJ Fad hit "Supersonic"
Basically appreciating what they did and rapping one of their lines at an incomprehensible speed.
Who's here after Kamikaze
Me
"Why be a KING when you could GOD?"
CantStop pro. You didn’t even get the quote right lmao. It’s “why be a king when you could be a god”
@that boi bro can you stop with your atheistic shit posting.Like we get it,you don't believe in a god.
This video should've been 1 hour long.
After Revival,
I'm glad 'cause they feed me the fuel that I need for the fire
To burn and it's burning and I have returned
*~Marshall Mathers*
That song was before Revival.
and I am, whatever you say I am,
IF I wasn't, then why would I say I am,
In the paper, the news, every day I am,
Radio won't even play my jam.
I'm beginning to feel like a Rap GOD
Rap god all my ppl from the front to the back nod, back nod
Cifix now who thinks their arms are long enough to slap box slap box
@@Destiny-jo6eeThey say I rap like a robot so call me rap bot, rap bot?
But for me to rap like a computer must be in my genes...
The legend of all raps
What happened between MMLP2 and Revival? Significant drop in quality IMO. From a longtime fan.
Trippie Blue u heard the southpaw soundtrack and shady xv ?I liked em both too
Ps:I love recovery,I don't like relapse...sooo our taste deffers a lil naturally
Trippie Blue recovery is amazing
He's still got it and he's pissed now so the next album will be lit
Jessie the cat :3 dr. Dre didn’t produce, that’s why.
skateroren well he didn't produce nothing on the mmlp2 too
I'm still waiting for that Slim Shady LP 2
too bad it's probably never gonna happen
He himself said that the sslp was horrible,he was always trying to catch the beat
hmm yes interesting. Relapse bro
He is back told a friend
@@qusigh when the fuck did he say it? Seems you make up facts.
Relapse-2 more be dangerous
Eminem said in a interview and a freestyle that rap god was a freestyle off the dome
guys i think he was trying to say he was the god of rap
U think?
I thought the “six minutes... slim shady you’re on” was a sample from ‘Remember Me’ off of the Marshall Mathers LP
i love the line "So I wanna make sure somewhere in this chicken scratch I scribble and doodle
Enough rhymes to maybe to try and help get some people through tough times"
I thought the 6 minutes was from remember me when said "I won't say f*ck for 6 minutes."
I just think he was just flexing and showing what he is capable of
The Rhyme scheme is insane!
Legendary song
This is a classic. Simple
Hoodie AA ikr
Suprised they didn't bring up the trip abroad line near the end. The wordplay was great and probably pissed off feminists at the time.
Jeremiah Makinde Another reason to love Em
Jeremiah Makinde that's because feminists aren't smart enough to understand word - PLAY, but I doubt he got backlashed so much on that
lol, if i cant batter the woman, then how the fuck am i suppose to back them a cake then, just fuck it.
@@xplicit_5318 You are kidding, right? I'm not going to assume that you're serious because that would make you really stupid and as grown human beings we know better than to just start hurling gender based hate language around the interwebs...
i'm a femenist bi stan . so idc if he disses he is the god . i respect it
Rap God was a phenomenon. It started a whole new wave in the world of Hip-Hop and music itself, it made fast rap a cool thing. A global phenomenon.
Screaming shady till I die
Saw him perform this live in Stockholm last month, my life is now complete
it took 5 years to explain it
Sama lama Dalai Lama
LeBeautiful I remember you dominating the NBA comment section lool
U assuming I'm a human what I gotta do to prove to you I'm a superhuman innovative and I'm made of rubber so that anything you say sichochet off me and uh devasted more than ever demonstrated how to give a mithefuxjimf audiience something something and I know the haterare forever waiting for the day that they can say I fell of they'll be celebrating cuz i know the way to get em motivated I make elevator music you make elevator music, and so on.
Sup eminem do you remember me
Ken is back .... tell some men.
Jessie the cat :3 I need more man's
Milad Hayat LOL
ken kaniff lmao
Omfg I love you
Wasn’t this song also a freestyle? I think that’s something noteworthy to mention
Dominic X. Cary sadly not, I believe the fast part was originally thought up on the spot but the whole song was definitely written over a few days or however long
He should of gave JJ Fad a bigger shout out.
Na'Im Briggs he only mention NWA because their friends
you sure he isnt saying "AK-47, a revolver and an *AUG9*"?
Eminem knows how great he is so sometimes he likes to show off
Technically the 6 minutes part is from remember me? As he has references to mmlp
Ahhh rap god I remember people bringing speakers to school and blasting rap god in the hallways
Zfighter Zfighter that must’ve been awesome!
He Is Still A Force To Reckon with
There are gonna be good albums and bad albums but you cannot deny that eminem is one if not the best rapper to have ever lived
humble is fourth damn... i memorized all the lyrics on genius
I thought they were going to bust open more controversial lines
He's definitely a Rap God!!!!! Hands down
That's saying something, when the song is longer than the break down of the song.
Actually, the "6 minutes, Slim Shady you're on" comes from the Marshall Mathers lp, in the song "Remember me?" he says: I'm tryna clean up my fucking image, so I told the fucking critics I wouldn't say "fucking" for six minutes", and that's when the announcer says: "six minutes, Slim Shady you're on"
Dang we’re already “looking back” on this song? Wonder what they’ll say about My Name Is haha
They left the punchline out of the “school flunky” line! I’ll write it the
School flunky
Pill junkie
But look at the accolades
These skills brung me
Full of myself
But still hungry
Truly a rap god
I love genius
I think this needs a part 2.
Finally some good music
It would be great if they could do a special edition for a song like this covering almost every reference and meanings behind lines
they said i rap like a robot, so call me rapbot
Thanks Genius for posting Eminem videos , very cool !
Goat 🙏🏻
Lyrical genius. Top 5 ever. At least there on my present top 5, Nas, AZ, Elzhi, Em and Percee P.
GOAT 🤩🔥💯
Whats The Status yeah Tupac
This song is the masterpiece of This Modern World.... ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Now explain Rap Lord from Haikaiss
One of my favorite Eminem songs
Look back at Yonkers by Tyler, the Creator!
Eminem may have set a record for most words, but quadeca CRUSHED that with 30,000 WORDS IN ONE SONG
If that means what I think it means, we're in trouble, BIG TROUBLE
lol the “six minutes slim shady you’re on” is a reference to remember me off of the original MMLP
He used to be a hard ass mc, now he’s a popstar...
swirf ! So is Drake
FreshBeats This is about Eminem, not Drake. How is he even relevant in this topic?
He’s got older u gotta adapt, can’t pretend to be a gangsta if ur not. To be fair he always had pop/r&b songs nothing’s really changed.
Yup I want more stuff like Chloraseptic remix, not that River and Like Home trash.
Nah he rapped and it turned pop.
Somebody please bring 2010-2013 eminem back, PLEASEEEEEEE
to get inspiration to rap you already know where tf i go to
Best ever rapper. Love ya em.
Hes a genius
Remember that song Forever. Literally the 4 of the generation’s heavyweights on one song
16k likes 601 mgk fans
I noticed the thing on Max Headroom. I was looking all over the internet to find someone else who knew this fact. Great work
a little late with the vid upload
joshua Xavier not too late,... only 5 years
joshua Xavier "looking back at" just flew right over your head, huh?
1:13 He also sampled the same line in the song "Remember Me" from the first MMLP. "I promised the fucking critics, I wouldnt say "fucking" for six minutes (Six minutes Slim Shady, you're on"
Highkey looks like Jake Pauls dad in the thumbnail
Too short, they needed to go more in depth with this work of Art.
Wtf was this wack
Pharoahe monch is super underrated, and that Rawkus Soundbombing 2 album is super dope
Rap Lord is better than this one
Stop it plz. ffs :| better than rap god?!!!!! smfh
Billy jakk no way 😏
don't forget about the max headroom inspired parts of the song the coolest part of the music videos that and all the reference's he puts in the track
That's not even the fraction of what I wanted to know when I searched this
EMINEM FOREVER !!
The way you're so calm while saying "old marvel shit" feels good
u cant explain a 1560 word/6 min song in only 3 mins AND without him personally explaining it
unacceptable
I was a senior in high school when this gem dropped. MMLP2🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
5 years in the making
How can anyone forget the super sonic part? GOAT
In the beginning where he says “six minutes” that’s from “remember me”
This is so good
I love rap god
