Em’s skill is being a genius with complication. Wayne’s skill is being a genius with simplicity. Personally i feel like they are both GOATs in their own lane and this is just an unstoppable force meeting the immovable object
I'm huge Eminem fan but Wayne won this one but Eminem won in their other songs also Eminem won when collaped with Jay z. for me all three of them are goats new gen is good but its all about money and making hits. Compared to these 3 who where creating rap we have today is joke
These are 2 EXTREMELY talented men who are the best at their style of creating music. The fact that they can put their styles together in this way just shows how versatile they are!!
"Cold-hearted from the day I bogarted the game" deep meaning here because Evan bogart was one of the people responsible for discovering Eminem at the Rap Olympics in 1997. So he was cold-hearted since the beginning he was noticed and has been ever since
wayne went crazy on this one but em won for sure. he's just different, no one does it like him. also, a lot of bars went over ur head but keep up the em reactions, y'all slowly getting better at catching his bars. PLEASE react to: stay wide awake, rabbit run, 8 mile (the song), best friend, psycho (ft. 50 cent) next!
I like both artists. This song is so inspirational for me. I can’t compare Em and Lil Wayne cos both offer something different, but compliment each other so well. Wayne’s delivery is always perfect, I like the laid back style and his lyricism; however, Em keeps the flow interesting and changes it throughout, and I feel like his lyricism mirrors Wayne’s in this track. Gotta love em both, they’re both GOATs in their own rights.
Neither, only because they both got out exactly what they wanted woth different deliveries that complmented one another. Not everything is a competition. They came in with two different styles with a msg.
I feel that’s it’s not right to judge artists against each other on the same song. To me Wayne was on the relationship vibe while EM was on the artist and music industry vibe. Wayne’s was more relatable and surface mounted while EMs was more layered cause you have to make people look at that. They both went in on 2 sides of no love.
It ultrainstinct Goku (Dwayne) vs Ultraego Vegeta (Eminem). Its rapid water rock erroding flow vs rock smashing torrential typhoon rapping. Its romantic poetry verses vs god smiting fire raining bible type verses. Its counter punching natural boxing prodigy genius Ichiro Miyata vs hard work tough as nails fearless foward march Ippo Makanouchi.
I love Lil Wayne but Eminem is on another level. You have to turn on your brain while it does his flow, it's complex. Wayne, as good as he is, is easier.
Something to mention, Ems bars connect from themes and transitions. The fire, sparks, ignite, hot metal, roasting, Marsh (Marshall) is not mellow , all connected to heat. A lot of people say just like yall he spitting fast, but it always connects to a previous bar and sets up the next, while keeping cadence and flow, and giving a whole verse that's a bar lol. But Wayne got metaphors for years, most his bars are simple but deep. Ems usually require a bit more analysis
I don’t care who won, I just appreciate these two legends made this amazing song. Bars and flow are through the roof. I miss the old Wayne, Carter 3 my favorite album
Em and Wayne are Yin and Yang. Wayne's genius is bars in simplicity capped with clever analogies, whereas Em's genius is complicated schemes and wordplay, littered with double and triple entendres. It all comes down to preference, but also, I think it's why they compliment each other so well. It's all in the way they balance each other out. They're both master's of their own styles. But I'd listen to them together any day...
Facts 100. I caught more bars in ‘Em song then those guys did because you have to also listen to the way he triple and double entendre into a bar or bars follow up by a bar.
You definitely need to listen to more Wayne. This was nothing… Also, Em’s bars weren’t that complex, he just had larger rhyme schemes. Wayne’s punchlines were more unique. Best bar, in my opinion, was: “All about my dough, but I don’t even check the peephole / So you can keep knocking but won’t knock me down” Dough = money, but sounds like “do’,” which is slang for “door,” and is a homophone. “Peephole” sounds like “people,” which is another homophone. Then he ties that in with the “so you can keep knocking, but won’t knock me down.” By the way, Eminem started using homophones heavily since 2015, and it’s Em’s most used literary device and has been since. Listen to Em’s last 3 albums, and you’ll find them literally EVERYWHERE. Edit: Oh, and I forgot. Little Richard has a song called “Keep-a-Knockin’,” a song about a a lover who he won’t let back in because of bad behavior. So the bar is a metaphor for how Hip-Hop has treated him. And “peephole,” which sounds like “people,” may be Wayne saying he’s all about the Benjamin’s and doesn’t care who he does business with.
One of the main reasons Waynes bars hit so hard was because of his speed, he was basically spoon feeding us. We saw it coming and every bar hit. Also there was double entendres in probably every bar. Ems flow makes his verse even harder. Ems verse was also alot more personal and to the theme of the song
@@blakan1478 true but em don’t like doing that all the time he said himself in an interview he likes to change it up depending on what he’s in the mood for .. sometimes he makes them easy sometimes he likes to do the corny shit on purpose and other times he likes to just go over peoples Heads
@@blakan1478 you can’t speak for every artist. Every artist is different, some like having Easter eggs that only their core fans can catch and some like being abstract to where it takes several listens to understand the overall message/meaning. Some like being simple and easy to understand. There’s no right way to do it. If that were the case then in art abstract artists would be “wrong” because they do their art form in a way that’s extremely complex and left up for interpretation for the viewer.
This was really Important song for Eminem Becouse He almost died beforw this song . he did this after Rehab . That s why he start his verse . " Im alive again more alive
@@gotredboxes Wtf Im Stan from Begining I remember this time , . Sources ? xd. He took drugs and he collapse in the bathroom. Eminem Did interview about this
Ok instead of saying Wayne rewrote let’s say he re recorded which is what he does sometimes so people can stop saying Wayne don’t write it’s like ok you know what we mean re wrote/ re record, we trying to say the same thing lol
@@revertedrf978 everyone writes my guy, they just don't show up with pad and pen to the studio, if you dont write and memorize, then every retake verse would be different
Wayne's verse paints such a vivid picture to the listener with excellent story-telling, plus he has nice bars. Em has more elevated word-play and also has more fun with the flow. So ultimately it's going to come down to what mood you're in. I feel as though, Em used to do more story-telling earlier on in his career, but as he got older, he began playing with form more. Personally, I enjoy Wayne's stuff more when I want to "feel" something, and I look up Em's stuff when I want to really mentally dissect something clever and appreciate world-play.
Lil Wayne did his thing here, some of his best punchlines, his best metaphors and hardest verses are present. After that he takes a step back and supports Em with adlibs, Marshal simply does what you expect him to do and eat the whole fuccin rest of the song. What do you expect, Wheezy does his best around the best.
Because Em kinda forces featuring artists to dig deep and bring their best when collaborating on a record, you end up with situations like this where Wayne, who you already love, spits a verse that goes above and beyond what you typically hear from him, making what is already an "A" rapper deliver an "A+" performance. But, on the other hand, because Eminem gives you an "A+" verse *EVERY SINGLE TIME* there's really no way to make the listener hear his verse as something truly special or unique... In effect, this leaves you feeling that Em did what Em does, whereas Weezy, on the other hand, did something extra-ordinary. In a way, it's like Eminem is so good, on such a consistent basis, that it actually works against him...if that makes any sense...(?)
Yup just like that song he just did with snoop it brought out the best in snoop because he knows he has to maintain his reputation instead of getting smoked by em in the same song meanwhile em brought it yet again. You hit the nail on the head
Trying to compare these two artists is a fool's errand, though... It's like handing someone a copy of a universally acclaimed novel that is seen as a work of literary genius...then sending them a hilarious meme with two lines of text that almost everyone can relate to...and then telling them to decide which is the better author and/or piece of writing. Lol
This song actually helped me through my recovery! Kept me going, helped me stay clean. When all the doubters where throwing hate my way. This song saved my life kept me strong🙏
Eminem took this without question and Wayne went crazy! Em spit the bars, did the flow, kept the whole thing coming together... On Top Of My Game! Wrong choice on this one guys!
It’s not a wrong choice it’s their opinion lol I see what ur saying but still they prefer Wayne nothing wrong with that it’s a close match up, at least they appreciate both verses
I love WAYNES verses BUT to me THIS WAS ONE OF EM"S best verses of career, he pretty much told WAYNE in song go home and re write it, like wayne's schems but not that complex . Both killed it, but I give it to EM for sure
Weezy F Baby don't write foo so the F is for Fuck you. If this Ems best verse against Lean sipping Weezys 8/10 But not his best verse, then I guess Wayne the Goat by your own logic lmao
@@vicpetrograd Em spits fire so Lil Wayne needs to have brought his A-game for this collab. Em's verse also has a lot of associations to fire, heat, etc. The top comment goes more in depth about this. - My unprofessional opinion
@@Twiztedpenguin I don't know if you're right about that. You might be, but I'm just guessing. I thought, because Em is the "fire marshall". If im wrong, it still is good tho!
A monopoly in rap is, being alone at the top. But also standing on his monopoly board. Being on top of the game. The marsh mellow bar was more fire aswell, next to that you guys caught alot
and standing on his monopoly, bored. That ties back in to the later bars when it aint even cool to sound cocky anymore and all the way back to the first line about peoples rats perking up when he begins to smash with the pen. It is like if you play Madden and never take it off rookie. You are wining 86-0 every game and it get's boring and it isn't even cool to talk shit or brag about anymore because you don't have any challenge or competition
Agreed, people just appreciate more the features, if we keep comparing the artist then some people may feel intimidated and we could miss another masterpiece like this one or drop the world.
The fact you have to replay Ems part again and again to catch everything decides it for me. It's not just rapping fast. He puts way more into his verses than most. I'm a thinker so his bars speak to me more. I understand others don't think that hard. To each their own.
This right here is why Em is one of the best. He has layers and layers...everytime you listen you catch something new. Most rappers have surface level bars maybe doubles, but Em has triple and quads
@@nairkeith I won't lie, I'm a stan, and I'll give my respect to Wayne, I listen to Eminem playlists every day, and to this day, I still hear bars in songs I've heard hundreds of times that I've never heard in that song before. And then I'm like 🤯 that bar hits even deeper than I thought it did
Lol every bar Wayne spot was a double/triple entendre. You can be the smartest in the room and listen to it 10 times over and still wouldn’t catch everything. AND he rapped slow so casuals could catch up.
@@Inwhyseeb No hate. But if you stop comparing them, you'll see the beauty of both their lyrics n flow. If Wayne didn't rate Ems verse you think he would let Em feature. Think about it. Peace.
For those who don’t know, when em was talking about ye he was talking about the verse on “Forever”. Ye said in an interview that he went back to the studio for 2 days to rewrite his verse after hearing ems verse.
Although what you said might be true, but it's incorrect, in this particular instance, he is referring to Kanye snatching the mic from Taylor Swift at the VMAs: "snatch the mic from them, get these cocksuckers off stage, where the fuck is Kanye when you need him?"
On the forever lil Wayne and Kanye redid there Verses after they heard Eminem They all had good verses if they would’ve been in any song, everybody would appreciated their verses, but nobody talks Eminems shit he talked shit about all of them on the song And they went back and redid their verses, and didn’t even try to clap back they just try to make their first versus better than they were
This song is really a showcase of bars vs cadence/flow..I used to think Wayne had this one until you really start to appreciate flow ..Em's flow is an added instrument to the song..Its amazing🔥 only an elite few can do that
@@rencenaval8556 but, he's also a rapper/lyricist🤣 of course he's going to catch most of Em's bars, dude does what EM does for a living, just at a lower level. So he understands what EM is saying, because that's also his job too.
Wayne went for punchlines on this Em went for straight emotion and flow with a couple of nice bars in there. I prefer Ems verse because I knew his journey since being a kid and knowing that he came back from near death and was writing this during his comeback I could just feel the emotion on another level. They both killed this track in different ways which is why it's one of my favourites.
@@tbtnr9851imo em had more filler bars while for me each Wayne line hit. Em was more for schemes and complexity as well as fast flow, Wayne was about creativity, simple yet deep and punchlines
I remember the feeling I got when I first heard it and I still get the same feeling up to this day. The song makes you feel like you can conquer anything.
Apparently you can't appreciate Em's bars if you can't catch them .Only genius will catch his bars ..No one got more bars than Em is a legend all day 👏🙌🙌🙌
The fact is that both artists are GOATS. I will never compare the two because they both bring something different and unique to rap. The thing I am thankful for, is to be alive when both of these monsters were killing the game and setting some "bars" that are a little too high for most to reach. Much love to the channel. I be watching all your Em reactions.
Totally agree I think the three goats in rap are Eminem Lil Wayne Tech N9ne Actually I really shouldn't say think because think implies opinion and these are straight up facts😁😉
Plz name.. someone that can..on a record, album or whatever can even. Match EM.... Busta..lil Wayne.. Jay-Z.. Nas......no One....i would love to see Em and @snowdaproduct.
Eminem's flow, delivery, motivation is always top of the top. Wayne bars cold and needed in this song. This song is so good guys, just don't compare 2 goated rappers in a song where they teamed so well. Portugal here for the Goat Eminem always since day one and forever but also for other legendary OG'S and good stuff. Thanks for reacting to this legendary masterpiece. Salutes and respect from Portugal.
@@DJreeik Not sure, wasnt asking for a reaction btw. Was just telling that drop the world is also a classic and em and wayne should make more songs together. They fit so well on a track together.
Em's hardest verse When I'm not even in my harshest You can still get roasted, 'cause Marsh is not mellow 'Til I'm topplin' from the top, I'm not gonna stop I'm standin' on my Monopoly board (uh) That means I'm on top of my game And it don't stop 'til my hip don't hop anymore (shit
I always said Eminem and Lil Wayne should have made an album strictly them too together and it would have probably been the best album in the entire universe!!!!!!
@@Scorpion-lj2zbhell nah. Wayne punchlines hit way harder because of the metaphors and how deep they were. No disrespect to em because he had fire schemes but he wasn’t saying anything to clever or deep. Just because it’s complicated doesn’t mean his bars were hitting as hard
@@Scorpion-lj2zb name some. Bro y’all hype em so much man really said marsh won’t be mellow. Like nice wordplay but that shit was wack. Name Ems best punchline and in going to name Wayne. Also em literally had like a few actual bars while every Wayne line hit. Bro wasted like half his verse describing how peoples ears perk when they hear him rap
"When im not even in my harshest you can still get roasted cause marsh is not mellow" is just pure genius. The lyrics in itself, the delivery, its just all around great like the entire verse
@@noneofyourbiz39 wayne also said em was never gone to murder him on beat basically telling em you will never murder me on a song and i agree em would never murder wayne a song without dissing wayne
It was around this time that Em started getting a little bit more into word play. Wayne used to be king of word play then Em picked it up and way over shot Wayne. Please check out Alfred’s Theme - Eminem. Loaded with Bars.
Wayne's bars are simplicity and Em's bars are complexity. Perhaps this is what makes them one of the greatest collaborations in hip-hop along with Redman and Method-Man
It's obvious you don't know rap... Wayne verse is far from simple... Wayne say things in a thousand years you won't ever think about...em can rap fast but few metaphors
This is definitely the closest I've seen to Em not just completely washing people on a track. People have told Lil'Wayne this in interviews before about they feel he is the only one to not allow Eminem to "run him over in verses" and Weezy said nobody can run him over like that he pretty much treats it as a competition like Em does. It is pretty wild that rap song verses are treated as battle. Can you imagine Garth Brooks and Taylor Swift on a song and people breaking down who was better 😂🤣😂🤣 Hip Hop is just naturally competitive, prolly from all the battle rap throughout history.
@@brandoonf6962 Nah, Joyner was great but Em was on that Kamikaze smoke on that song/ whole album, he went crazy at the end. The whole “I sound like a broken record everytime I break a record”.
One thing that nobody who truly understands the genre can argue against is that Eminem brings the best out of Weezy. Go back and listen to their collabs...Wayne's most impressive verses are on records with Em.
Go listen to Knuck If You buck from Wayne or Last of a dying breed with Ludacris those verses are fucking unmatched, and there’s way more where those came from 💯
I'm an old head.. Em came out when I was in Highschool. Been a fan since his 1st album. Em's verses are always top notch and a lot to unpack. I also been a fan of Lil Wayne since Cash Money. Being Honest and Objective, Em is top 3 all time for me, but in this specific song, Lil Wayne had the better sounding part of the song in terms of flow and cadence. It felt like Em was trying to fit to many syllables in between beats, so it sounded a little off to me where as Wayne sounded more fluid. Both Em and Wayne had great bars, but Wayne had the better delivery overall, and I say this as someone who has Em higher on his rapper list than Wayne.
Em wasn't trying to fit.....he fit numerous syllables in btw beats, no hate to you but there wasn't really anything fluid about lil Wayne's obvious punchline to punchline bars. Punchlines are impact bars there's supposed to be a stop, putting them back to back takes fluidity out of the question
@@Matty80822 doesn't that make you a Wayne fan boy that can't take it that Em took this feature? I don't think any of them is better here, both are equally dope af
It's not about who is better, it's about two MC's bringing the best out of each other. Giving us an instant classic and the real winners would be us the fans!
Em got crazy flow and energy ⚡ and some bars too. I feel like everything Wayne said is a bar from start to finish. That's how I felt years ago and I still feel it.
This is a tie......both slayed it.....which is why it's one of best collabs ever from Em. If peeps are more Em fans, they'll lean to Em, and if more Weezy fans, lean to Weezy.
You know what it is? Em's part leaves you in admiration for the artistry and skill, and you feel the awe in your head. But when Wayne's bars hit you feel them in your core and they kinda pull on your stomach and make you do the stank face
Wayne had this one for real. Weezy had me vibing so nice.... Just like the song, Lil Wayne really is "The Best Rapper Alive". The GOAT is 2pac though. Eminem's verse was like 4x longer though, but usic to me is about how it makes you feel, and that Weezy verse just has me feeling silky smooth. Y'all should do '50 Cent - I'm The Man'
When you say Em didnt spit as many bars and doubles, it's cause they went over your head. Wayne's bars were fire but you cant compare 32 to 128 bars, Em passed Wayne before he was halfway through spittin
I was in my 20s during Wayne's prime.. He was and still is the greatest of all time. Em too. Damn that was such a badass time. Now you can't listen to the rapper's today. You can't tell what they're saying. Lol
It's not a competition. They're complementing each other. This song is nothing without both of them. For me, this is one of my too 10 favorite rap songs ever. And it's my ringtone 😜
People arguing in these comments who's better when the truth is this song is amazing, both guys are amazing, and the world is better for this song existing
Wayne = had better punchlines Em = had the better flow My preference on who had the better verse changes A lot, some days I think Wayne took it, other times I think Em took it. Regardless to say they always being the best out of each other when they collab
Like jay z said there’s no point of comparing people on the same song because the whole point is to have it flow together. It’s not a rap battle but still great video
I've heard this song a million times and just caught the craziest bar, and idk how the hell I've missed it for this long. "Cold hearted, from the day I bogarted the game, I so started to rock fellow." Literal 🔥 comes out that man's mouth when he opens it 💯 I'll be pausing his songs, looking at the lyrics hard asf 🧐
A lot of artists were already hesitant to have Eminem on as a guest artist after Renegade… but this verse following what happened when they all collaborated on “Forever” was the nail in the coffin for him being a premiere feature artist. He definitely took some micro aggressive shots at those guys for rewriting their verses after they heard his on that Forever track.
Lil wayne put yhe whole artístic vision in this song, Eminem just talked sh*t, thats what the guy in the red cap don't understand, true ART vs SHit talking.
Another great reaction. You miss some EM bars just because of missing background information, but Wayne still goes really hard for real. And EM toolbox is unmatched period. If you want some heavy bar songs from EM check "Medicine man" and "Best Friend". Also if you want to check some more DISSES take a look at "Bang" - Joe Button leaked diss; "Go To Sleep" - Ja Diss; "Chloraseptic" - The response after Revival flop. He spazzes on his fan base and his critics(reaction channels as well [kinda] and Joe Button) on that track. And for last you can check "Friday Night Cypher" - 11 people on that cypher, 10 bodies.
Don't bend to the stans. It's okay to say you preferred someone else's verse. I prefer Eminem in this particular song, and he's in my top 10, but you can never please the stans.
Half of them subs are stans tho. Or 70% of them subs. They subbed obviously coz of eminem, coz these reactors say something great about eminem. So yeah, stans are easy to please.
Em and Wayne have been my favorites since I was in highschool.. Im 37 now. Wayne's verse is one my all time favorites and he takes this one in my opinion. He's so methodical. 🐐 🐐
Eminem had more bars and did more with the pen than Wayne. Both brought their different A-game on this one. I can accept giving it to Wayne, but personally Eminem came a little harder with it and his energy and incentive better matched the theme and message of the song imo. When someone raps slower it's easier to catch stuff and for shit to sink in. But if you're used enough to Eminem to keep up with his cadance you see who came to the fight with the sharpest tools so to speak (more prepared for the assignment). Wayne focused on metaphores and Eminem on connections and double entendres. But Eminem had the uplifting cadance and personal feelings into it along with it. It's like a 55/45 split. And I give it to Em because he did more with the pen and the delivery at end of the day.
Love this song, with 2 GOATS...Wayne even said in an interview that when he was approaching the song it's always 50/50 nobody will out do another..they both looked at it that way and just wanted to make a beautiful song..its about the music, not who did better then who
The best line was "yo I don't care about Taylor Swift, man" lmao. But seriously, I can't decide if I like 'Em or Wayne's bars more. Wayne had such a dope rhythm and delivery and Em is always technically epic. One of the best collabs ever. Your reactions are top tier
Wayne's bars are just easy to catch. Both great verses but I feel like Brandon can only catch em bars at times and the rest of you struggle pretty bad lol you guys are my favorite reaction channel keep it up!
Fun Fact: Wayne said in an interview that he had to rewrite his original verse on this track when he heard Em's verse. He wasn't gonna let Em outshine him on his own track. And this was one of Em's first verses after Rehab
Em literally paints the picture of Kanye snatching the mic from Taylor Swift. After he says, “Where the fuck is Kanye when you need him?” “Snatch the mic from him, bitch I'ma let you finish in a minute Yeah, that rap was tight, but I'm 'bout to spit the greatest verse of all time” Kanye said “I’m really happy for you imma let you finish but Beyonce had one of the best videos of all time.” After Taylor just won Video of the year.
Em’s skill is being a genius with complication. Wayne’s skill is being a genius with simplicity. Personally i feel like they are both GOATs in their own lane and this is just an unstoppable force meeting the immovable object
Very good take on it
man became poetic, damn
I'm huge Eminem fan but Wayne won this one but Eminem won in their other songs also Eminem won when collaped with Jay z. for me all three of them are goats new gen is good but its all about money and making hits. Compared to these 3 who where creating rap we have today is joke

"Cold-hearted from the day I bogarted the game" deep meaning here because Evan bogart was one of the people responsible for discovering Eminem at the Rap Olympics in 1997. So he was cold-hearted since the beginning he was noticed and has been ever since

Wat up doe .. do some more detroit music.. like the great lake ruler r.i.p. blade icewood
I love Lil Wayne but Eminem is on another level. You have to turn on your brain while it does his flow, it's complex. Wayne, as good as he is, is easier.
Something to mention, Ems bars connect from themes and transitions. The fire, sparks, ignite, hot metal, roasting, Marsh (Marshall) is not mellow , all connected to heat. A lot of people say just like yall he spitting fast, but it always connects to a previous bar and sets up the next, while keeping cadence and flow, and giving a whole verse that's a bar lol. But Wayne got metaphors for years, most his bars are simple but deep. Ems usually require a bit more analysis
Yess. And people mistake simplicity with easy.. IT IS NOT, cant noone do it like wayne forsure.
The schemes are crazy

You have to listen the song 10 times and you see some magic
@Mark the remind me my first time listening to Eminem until I understand what is hip hop , don’t make my words mistakes, Wayne is a goat too.

Same
FACTS
12 years later, this song still 🔥 always feel like I'm hearing it for the first time
Carter 2 is Wayne’s best album 🔥
Exactly. There was no "who won".
Em and Wayne are Yin and Yang. Wayne's genius is bars in simplicity capped with clever analogies, whereas Em's genius is complicated schemes and wordplay, littered with double and triple entendres. It all comes down to preference, but also, I think it's why they compliment each other so well. It's all in the way they balance each other out.
They're both master's of their own styles. But I'd listen to them together any day...
Best comment gang. No cap explained perfectly
no one could've said it better
correct
Perfectly explained
I agree fully to all what you said
Wayne's bars are so surface level. You catch them all the first time. Eminem has to be heard multiple times to catch em all
Factsssss
💯💯💯‼️
Exactly 💯
Facts 100. I caught more bars in ‘Em song then those guys did because you have to also listen to the way he triple and double entendre into a bar or bars follow up by a bar.
You definitely need to listen to more Wayne. This was nothing…
Also, Em’s bars weren’t that complex, he just had larger rhyme schemes. Wayne’s punchlines were more unique.
Best bar, in my opinion, was:
“All about my dough, but I don’t even check the peephole /
So you can keep knocking but won’t knock me down”
Dough = money, but sounds like “do’,” which is slang for “door,” and is a homophone.
“Peephole” sounds like “people,” which is another homophone. Then he ties that in with the “so you can keep knocking, but won’t knock me down.”
By the way, Eminem started using homophones heavily since 2015, and it’s Em’s most used literary device and has been since. Listen to Em’s last 3 albums, and you’ll find them literally EVERYWHERE.
Edit: Oh, and I forgot. Little Richard has a song called “Keep-a-Knockin’,” a song about a a lover who he won’t let back in because of bad behavior. So the bar is a metaphor for how Hip-Hop has treated him. And “peephole,” which sounds like “people,” may be Wayne saying he’s all about the Benjamin’s and doesn’t care who he does business with.

Ems verse you gotta go back a second time to understand. Em isn’t a top 10 selling rap artist. He is the biggest rap selling artist !
Guess what? They just did that
@@MotionBlurMyself They understood more whenever they went back a second time so “guess what?” That was the guys exact point….
He could be the biggest selling artist but could still get outrapped by Weezy the goat
@@zeemar13 yes he can but he didn’t lol and weezy is in my top 5
@@zeemar13 cant recall a time Em was ever outrapped by a artists including this i dont think wayne got outrapped either tho at least in this song
One of the main reasons Waynes bars hit so hard was because of his speed, he was basically spoon feeding us. We saw it coming and every bar hit. Also there was double entendres in probably every bar. Ems flow makes his verse even harder. Ems verse was also alot more personal and to the theme of the song
Best way to explain it
came to the comments to say this myself.. one of ems best verses imo, just gotta keep up
But thats the job of a artist to deliver his bars so as many people can apprieciate them as much as possible
@@blakan1478 true but em don’t like doing that all the time he said himself in an interview he likes to change it up depending on what he’s in the mood for .. sometimes he makes them easy sometimes he likes to do the corny shit on purpose and other times he likes to just go over peoples Heads
@@blakan1478 you can’t speak for every artist. Every artist is different, some like having Easter eggs that only their core fans can catch and some like being abstract to where it takes several listens to understand the overall message/meaning. Some like being simple and easy to understand. There’s no right way to do it. If that were the case then in art abstract artists would be “wrong” because they do their art form in a way that’s extremely complex and left up for interpretation for the viewer.
This was really Important song for Eminem Becouse He almost died beforw this song . he did this after Rehab . That s why he start his verse . " Im alive again more alive
Sources?
@@gotredboxes Wtf Im Stan from Begining I remember this time , . Sources ? xd. He took drugs and he collapse in the bathroom. Eminem Did interview about this
I don't think he wrote this song exactly after almost dieing. He wrote this after his relapse album so it been about 2 or 3 years after his overdose
@@michaelsaylor4903 Tell me when i told Eminem did this exactly after this happend ? . He just was again himself
No he didn’t lmao

@@revertedrf978 everyone writes my guy, they just don't show up with pad and pen to the studio, if you dont write and memorize, then every retake verse would be different
Wayne's verse paints such a vivid picture to the listener with excellent story-telling, plus he has nice bars. Em has more elevated word-play and also has more fun with the flow. So ultimately it's going to come down to what mood you're in. I feel as though, Em used to do more story-telling earlier on in his career, but as he got older, he began playing with form more.
Personally, I enjoy Wayne's stuff more when I want to "feel" something, and I look up Em's stuff when I want to really mentally dissect something clever and appreciate world-play.
Drop the world from Wayne and Em is fire 🔥 too
Lil Wayne did his thing here, some of his best punchlines, his best metaphors and hardest verses are present.
After that he takes a step back and supports Em with adlibs, Marshal simply does what you expect him to do and eat the whole fuccin rest of the song.
What do you expect, Wheezy does his best around the best.
Nice writing bro it includes every thing good job
Anyone else’s favorite line “standing on my monopoly board…that means I’m on top of my game”.
Because Em kinda forces featuring artists to dig deep and bring their best when collaborating on a record, you end up with situations like this where Wayne, who you already love, spits a verse that goes above and beyond what you typically hear from him, making what is already an "A" rapper deliver an "A+" performance.
But, on the other hand, because Eminem gives you an "A+" verse *EVERY SINGLE TIME* there's really no way to make the listener hear his verse as something truly special or unique...
In effect, this leaves you feeling that Em did what Em does, whereas Weezy, on the other hand, did something extra-ordinary.
In a way, it's like Eminem is so good, on such a consistent basis, that it actually works against him...if that makes any sense...(?)
faaaaaaaactsssss
💯
Yup just like that song he just did with snoop it brought out the best in snoop because he knows he has to maintain his reputation instead of getting smoked by em in the same song meanwhile em brought it yet again. You hit the nail on the head
@@kylemonsterdrywallfistbump5948 perfect example!
Trying to compare these two artists is a fool's errand, though...
It's like handing someone a copy of a universally acclaimed novel that is seen as a work of literary genius...then sending them a hilarious meme with two lines of text that almost everyone can relate to...and then telling them to decide which is the better author and/or piece of writing. Lol
This song actually helped me through my recovery! Kept me going, helped me stay clean. When all the doubters where throwing hate my way. This song saved my life kept me strong🙏
Thats amazing brother, hope you’re doing well now , I love this song so much man the lyrics hit everytime I listen to it - Nice version of Osama
Hell yeah bro, glad to have come across this. God bless you, hope all is well 🙏🏼🙏🏼
Hope you’re still riding strong
Same!
Eminem took this without question and Wayne went crazy! Em spit the bars, did the flow, kept the whole thing coming together... On Top Of My Game! Wrong choice on this one guys!
Wrong choice on this one and wrong choice on Forever reaction. 2/2
It’s not a wrong choice it’s their opinion lol I see what ur saying but still they prefer Wayne nothing wrong with that it’s a close match up, at least they appreciate both verses
opinions cant be wrong. Wayne gets points because he's the only dude Em didnt lap on a track.
@@markmac2206 Well, no lap lap but he lap but no lap lap for sure. Wayne’s a beast
Not a wrong choice. Especially when it's this close
I love this song with every fiber of my being. It really takes me back.
10th grade 🥲
I'm right there with you
I love WAYNES verses BUT to me THIS WAS ONE OF EM"S best verses of career, he pretty much told WAYNE in song go home and re write it, like wayne's schems but not that complex . Both killed it, but I give it to EM for sure
Yups i totally agree Wayne said this too by the way
That was a diss to Kanye. Wayne's verse is simple punch after punch after punch and only he can do that
He dissed Kanye for having to rewrite his verse on Forever
nah that was a shot at Kanye
Weezy F Baby don't write foo so the F is for Fuck you. If this Ems best verse against Lean sipping Weezys 8/10 But not his best verse, then I guess Wayne the Goat by your own logic lmao
"I don't go around fire expecting not to sweat" is a direct nod to Em that everyone seems to miss. Respect
Years later and you just brought this to my attention, I thank you. Catching new bars every day 😂
How/why is this a nod to Eminem ? genuine question :)
@@vicpetrograd Em spits fire so Lil Wayne needs to have brought his A-game for this collab. Em's verse also has a lot of associations to fire, heat, etc. The top comment goes more in depth about this. - My unprofessional opinion
@@Twiztedpenguin Thank you bro
@@Twiztedpenguin I don't know if you're right about that. You might be, but I'm just guessing. I thought, because Em is the "fire marshall". If im wrong, it still is good tho!
when Em said "i ma let you finish in a minute", he literally finished his verse within 1 minute
Damn
He's so calculated
Lol
Unappreciated greatness.
🥶🥶🥶😱😱😱 Fuck fr? now i gotta go back damn he's nice
A monopoly in rap is, being alone at the top. But also standing on his monopoly board. Being on top of the game. The marsh mellow bar was more fire aswell, next to that you guys caught alot
and standing on his monopoly, bored. That ties back in to the later bars when it aint even cool to sound cocky anymore and all the way back to the first line about peoples rats perking up when he begins to smash with the pen. It is like if you play Madden and never take it off rookie. You are wining 86-0 every game and it get's boring and it isn't even cool to talk shit or brag about anymore because you don't have any challenge or competition
I simply love both artists. Impossible and pointless to claim a "winner" when two GOATS worked together to create a masterpiece.
Agreed, people just appreciate more the features, if we keep comparing the artist then some people may feel intimidated and we could miss another masterpiece like this one or drop the world.
Yep. They both became pillars in Hip-Hop
This duo is so sick. They’re contrast slow and fast and both complex compliment each other so well!!!!
The fact you have to replay Ems part again and again to catch everything decides it for me. It's not just rapping fast. He puts way more into his verses than most. I'm a thinker so his bars speak to me more. I understand others don't think that hard. To each their own.
This right here is why Em is one of the best. He has layers and layers...everytime you listen you catch something new. Most rappers have surface level bars maybe doubles, but Em has triple and quads
@@nairkeith I won't lie, I'm a stan, and I'll give my respect to Wayne, I listen to Eminem playlists every day, and to this day, I still hear bars in songs I've heard hundreds of times that I've never heard in that song before. And then I'm like 🤯 that bar hits even deeper than I thought it did
Nah it’s cause bro be rapping to fast , wayne better imo no hate tho
Lol every bar Wayne spot was a double/triple entendre. You can be the smartest in the room and listen to it 10 times over and still wouldn’t catch everything. AND he rapped slow so casuals could catch up.
@@Inwhyseeb No hate.
But if you stop comparing them, you'll see the beauty of both their lyrics n flow.
If Wayne didn't rate Ems verse you think he would let Em feature.
Think about it.
Peace.
For those who don’t know, when em was talking about ye he was talking about the verse on “Forever”. Ye said in an interview that he went back to the studio for 2 days to rewrite his verse after hearing ems verse.
I was just thinking that just now listening to that part of the song!!!
Although what you said might be true, but it's incorrect, in this particular instance, he is referring to Kanye snatching the mic from Taylor Swift at the VMAs: "snatch the mic from them, get these cocksuckers off stage, where the fuck is Kanye when you need him?"
On the forever lil Wayne and Kanye redid there Verses after they heard Eminem They all had good verses if they would’ve been in any song, everybody would appreciated their verses, but nobody talks Eminems shit he talked shit about all of them on the song And they went back and redid their verses, and didn’t even try to clap back they just try to make their first versus better than they were
This song is really a showcase of bars vs cadence/flow..I used to think Wayne had this one until you really start to appreciate flow ..Em's flow is an added instrument to the song..Its amazing🔥 only an elite few can do that
You can see in their faces that their brains turn on when Eminem starts. One of his BEST VERSES EVER.
You gotta be intelligent to break down Eminem's verses or songs. A lot of his bars go over people's heads. Especially the 2010 generation.
Facts 🙈👏❤️🐐🔥
@@MaximDL1410 it goes way over their heads. after a few listens you start to catch them
no you don’t… shit is elementary.
Watch knoxhill, he catches almost every bars em's spits
@@rencenaval8556 but, he's also a rapper/lyricist🤣 of course he's going to catch most of Em's bars, dude does what EM does for a living, just at a lower level. So he understands what EM is saying, because that's also his job too.
Wayne went for punchlines on this Em went for straight emotion and flow with a couple of nice bars in there. I prefer Ems verse because I knew his journey since being a kid and knowing that he came back from near death and was writing this during his comeback I could just feel the emotion on another level. They both killed this track in different ways which is why it's one of my favourites.
Imo Wayne brought more emotion and Em brought more wordplay and had fun with his verse
To each their own I guess@@tbtnr9851
@@tbtnr9851imo em had more filler bars while for me each Wayne line hit. Em was more for schemes and complexity as well as fast flow, Wayne was about creativity, simple yet deep and punchlines
I remember the feeling I got when I first heard it and I still get the same feeling up to this day. The song makes you feel like you can conquer anything.
Apparently you can't appreciate Em's bars if you can't catch them .Only genius will catch his bars ..No one got more bars than Em is a legend all day 👏🙌🙌🙌
It takes more than 1 listen to catch all the bars. Especially all the double and triple entendres. He is simply a genius himself. The Goat!
Everytime I listen to Em I'm still catching his bars iits never ending
Bro shut up. Why you need to hate another mans opinion. Some of you stans
I caught every bar!!!
This is Wayne’s w! More substance in his bars on this joint
Actually Wayne has more bars than Em by far
The fact is that both artists are GOATS. I will never compare the two because they both bring something different and unique to rap. The thing I am thankful for, is to be alive when both of these monsters were killing the game and setting some "bars" that are a little too high for most to reach. Much love to the channel. I be watching all your Em reactions.
Totally agree I think the three goats in rap are
Eminem
Lil Wayne
Tech N9ne
Actually I really shouldn't say think because think implies opinion and these are straight up facts😁😉
💯
There can only be one GOAT silly kids. It’s tough to pick but there is but one and it’s Obviously Eminem.
Tho.. there's a difference between a GOD and GOAT...Em is the Rap God.
Plz name.. someone that can..on a record, album or whatever can even. Match EM.... Busta..lil Wayne.. Jay-Z.. Nas......no One....i would love to see Em and @snowdaproduct.
Regardless of who y’all think is better, I appreciate the genuine reaction . That shit is hard to find. Keep it up boys 🔥🔥
Eminem's flow, delivery, motivation is always top of the top. Wayne bars cold and needed in this song.
This song is so good guys, just don't compare 2 goated rappers in a song where they teamed so well.

@@Scorpion-lj2zbhell nah. Wayne punchlines hit way harder because of the metaphors and how deep they were. No disrespect to em because he had fire schemes but he wasn’t saying anything to clever or deep. Just because it’s complicated doesn’t mean his bars were hitting as hard

So true. Even Wayne said in an interview you have to bring your game because Em is a monster. But Wayne brought his game no doubt
Wayne don't write

Like?
They the type to have to hear some 50 times before they get it
It was around this time that Em started getting a little bit more into word play. Wayne used to be king of word play then Em picked it up and way over shot Wayne. Please check out Alfred’s Theme - Eminem. Loaded with Bars.
Wayne's bars are simplicity and Em's bars are complexity. Perhaps this is what makes them one of the greatest collaborations in hip-hop along with Redman and Method-Man
Wayne's bars were far from simple. Did you not catch the wordplay?
eye respect that....been sayin em is just too complex on interlect
It's obvious you don't know rap... Wayne verse is far from simple... Wayne say things in a thousand years you won't ever think about...em can rap fast but few metaphors
Eminem's bars are just way more deeper and when you actually catch them you're actually like wow!
You have to exercise some interlect to understand em....man is just too deep for basic minds
Ya'll got to check Chloraseptic remix by Em ft Phresher and 2chainz absolute 🔥🔥🔥
I second this!
This is definitely the closest I've seen to Em not just completely washing people on a track. People have told Lil'Wayne this in interviews before about they feel he is the only one to not allow Eminem to "run him over in verses" and Weezy said nobody can run him over like that he pretty much treats it as a competition like Em does.
It is pretty wild that rap song verses are treated as battle. Can you imagine Garth Brooks and Taylor Swift on a song and people breaking down who was better 😂🤣😂🤣 Hip Hop is just naturally competitive, prolly from all the battle rap throughout history.
I would argue the closest is with Royce da 5’9 on Fastlane
Imma say Joyner did very well and kept up on Lucky You
You gotta check out Calm Down by Busta Rhymes. He took that battle from Em... shit is Nasty! Both fire on but Busta... holy shit
@@Rellj16 fuck yea
@@brandoonf6962 Nah, Joyner was great but Em was on that Kamikaze smoke on that song/ whole album, he went crazy at the end. The whole “I sound like a broken record everytime I break a record”.
One thing that nobody who truly understands the genre can argue against is that Eminem brings the best out of Weezy.
Go back and listen to their collabs...Wayne's most impressive verses are on records with Em.
Not even close bro I can tell you don’t really listen to Wayne much lol, Wayne’s verses with Em are not that impressive he’s gone way harder
Go listen to Knuck If You buck from Wayne or Last of a dying breed with Ludacris those verses are fucking unmatched, and there’s way more where those came from 💯
I feel you need to go listen to "John" by lilwayne ft. Rick Ross.
GLAD SOMEONE SAID IT!! Fucking mind blowing
❤
I'm an old head.. Em came out when I was in Highschool. Been a fan since his 1st album. Em's verses are always top notch and a lot to unpack.
I also been a fan of Lil Wayne since Cash Money.
Being Honest and Objective, Em is top 3 all time for me, but in this specific song, Lil Wayne had the better sounding part of the song in terms of flow and cadence. It felt like Em was trying to fit to many syllables in between beats, so it sounded a little off to me where as Wayne sounded more fluid.
Both Em and Wayne had great bars, but Wayne had the better delivery overall, and I say this as someone who has Em higher on his rapper list than Wayne.
Em wasn't trying to fit.....he fit numerous syllables in btw beats, no hate to you but there wasn't really anything fluid about lil Wayne's obvious punchline to punchline bars. Punchlines are impact bars there's supposed to be a stop, putting them back to back takes fluidity out of the question
I’ve listen to both since their start as well. Also an old head. I disagree completely. Eminem took this. Wayne went hard, but Em’s verse had it all.
I'm with you, Eminem is overall better than Wayne but Wayne rocked this way harder, the fan boys can't take it
@@Matty80822 doesn't that make you a Wayne fan boy that can't take it that Em took this feature? I don't think any of them is better here, both are equally dope af
@@4rl0ngit’s all subjective. I personally think Wayne part more fire to me and for me is close to a 60-40 then a 50-50
It's not about who is better, it's about two MC's bringing the best out of each other. Giving us an instant classic and the real winners would be us the fans!
🤘🏼Exactly!
This is one of my TOP FIVE Eminem songs. It gets me every single time. I get choked up EVERY TIME.
This verse by Em is my favorite of all his albums. it just hits different for me
Eminem took this, he had all the elements, flow, schemes, punches, delivery/cadence, vocal dynamics and the stronger end line crescendo.
no
@@Jamestucker1024 yeah he did take this one
@@brandonmorales4131 no
@@Jamestucker1024 he did
No he didn’t. Wayne had this one for sure, big time.
Em got crazy flow and energy ⚡ and some bars too.
I feel like everything Wayne said is a bar from start to finish. That's how I felt years ago and I still feel it.
Tie , tie , tie . They both killed it . 2 different styles . Both epic
This is a tie......both slayed it.....which is why it's one of best collabs ever from Em. If peeps are more Em fans, they'll lean to Em, and if more Weezy fans, lean to Weezy.
You know what it is? Em's part leaves you in admiration for the artistry and skill, and you feel the awe in your head. But when Wayne's bars hit you feel them in your core and they kinda pull on your stomach and make you do the stank face
Wayne had this one for real. Weezy had me vibing so nice.... Just like the song, Lil Wayne really is "The Best Rapper Alive". The GOAT is 2pac though. Eminem's verse was like 4x longer though, but usic to me is about how it makes you feel, and that Weezy verse just has me feeling silky smooth. Y'all should do '50 Cent - I'm The Man'
When you say Em didnt spit as many bars and doubles, it's cause they went over your head. Wayne's bars were fire but you cant compare 32 to 128 bars, Em passed Wayne before he was halfway through spittin
Ya'll need to check out Eminem's 'Til I Collapse', 'Stay Wide Awake', & 'Déjà Vu'! Some of Em's hardest tracks
Missing out if ya ain't checked em out already, no cap!
any track with the King Of Hooks is a win. RIP Nate
I was in my 20s during Wayne's prime.. He was and still is the greatest of all time. Em too. Damn that was such a badass time. Now you can't listen to the rapper's today. You can't tell what they're saying. Lol
It's not a competition. They're complementing each other. This song is nothing without both of them. For me, this is one of my too 10 favorite rap songs ever. And it's my ringtone 😜
They complement each other so well. They’re both fire.
People arguing in these comments who's better when the truth is this song is amazing, both guys are amazing, and the world is better for this song existing
I loved this song for years. Wayne kills this," my bars are full of broken bottles" yall didn't even say how sharp that is. 😝
They did on the second listen lol
Just the fact that these two amazing artists made a song is pure poetry, man what time it was to be a hip hop fan.
Wayne = had better punchlines
Em = had the better flow
My preference on who had the better verse changes A lot, some days I think Wayne took it, other times I think Em took it. Regardless to say they always being the best out of each other when they collab
Like jay z said there’s no point of comparing people on the same song because the whole point is to have it flow together. It’s not a rap battle but still great video
Except for Calm Down with Busta and Em, that was supposed to be a flow track but it became a battle lol
Bruh, I'm a huge Em fan but I respect all yall's opinion, you guys keep being you. 🔥🔥🔥
I've heard this song a million times and just caught the craziest bar, and idk how the hell I've missed it for this long. "Cold hearted, from the day I bogarted the game, I so started to rock fellow." Literal 🔥 comes out that man's mouth when he opens it 💯 I'll be pausing his songs, looking at the lyrics hard asf 🧐
A lot of artists were already hesitant to have Eminem on as a guest artist after Renegade… but this verse following what happened when they all collaborated on “Forever” was the nail in the coffin for him being a premiere feature artist. He definitely took some micro aggressive shots at those guys for rewriting their verses after they heard his on that Forever track.
"I don't go around fire expecting not to sweat"-Wayne. Fire bar. Even more fire when you see Em behind Wayne on fire in the video
Lil wayne put yhe whole artístic vision in this song, Eminem just talked sh*t, thats what the guy in the red cap don't understand, true ART vs SHit talking.
Another great reaction. You miss some EM bars just because of missing background information, but Wayne still goes really hard for real. And EM toolbox is unmatched period. If you want some heavy bar songs from EM check "Medicine man" and "Best Friend". Also if you want to check some more DISSES take a look at "Bang" - Joe Button leaked diss; "Go To Sleep" - Ja Diss; "Chloraseptic" - The response after Revival flop. He spazzes on his fan base and his critics(reaction channels as well [kinda] and Joe Button) on that track. And for last you can check "Friday Night Cypher" - 11 people on that cypher, 10 bodies.
Don't bend to the stans. It's okay to say you preferred someone else's verse. I prefer Eminem in this particular song, and he's in my top 10, but you can never please the stans.
Yeah I agree if they preferred Wayne's then so be it...but em was technically better on this track imo
Half of them subs are stans tho. Or 70% of them subs.
They subbed obviously coz of eminem, coz these reactors say something great about eminem. So yeah, stans are easy to please.
And yes, if these reactors using eminem to grow their channels. They should bend to the stans.
Em and Wayne have been my favorites since I was in highschool.. Im 37 now.
Wayne's verse is one my all time favorites and he takes this one in my opinion. He's so methodical.
🐐 🐐
Yall wild lol Em killed Wayne on that but i fuck with Weezys verse heavy
Em did not diss Kanye. He said where is Kanye to clear the wack rappers off the stage, its a compliment to Kanye
He did. He references the other track they were on together where Kanye rewrote his verse after listening to Eminem’s.
Eminem had more bars and did more with the pen than Wayne. Both brought their different A-game on this one. I can accept giving it to Wayne, but personally Eminem came a little harder with it and his energy and incentive better matched the theme and message of the song imo. When someone raps slower it's easier to catch stuff and for shit to sink in. But if you're used enough to Eminem to keep up with his cadance you see who came to the fight with the sharpest tools so to speak (more prepared for the assignment). Wayne focused on metaphores and Eminem on connections and double entendres. But Eminem had the uplifting cadance and personal feelings into it along with it.
It's like a 55/45 split. And I give it to Em because he did more with the pen and the delivery at end of the day.
Y’all should react to Drop the World by Lil Wayne ft. Eminem
Yeah but the uncensored version 💯
I always said Wayne had a better verse on no love eminem had the better verse on drop the world in my opinion
Love this song, with 2 GOATS...Wayne even said in an interview that when he was approaching the song it's always 50/50 nobody will out do another..they both looked at it that way and just wanted to make a beautiful song..its about the music, not who did better then who
Well said
Ya'll MUST react to Travis Scott ft Lil Wayne - Let it Fly. One of the hardest wayne verses EVERRRRR!!!! Upvote so they can see this.
Can’t be judging bars if you don’t have them all. Regardless, like who y’all like
Yeah idk why they even pretend to catch anything, couldn't even catch the dough door double lol
The best line was "yo I don't care about Taylor Swift, man" lmao. But seriously, I can't decide if I like 'Em or Wayne's bars more. Wayne had such a dope rhythm and delivery and Em is always technically epic. One of the best collabs ever. Your reactions are top tier
Wayne's bars are just easy to catch. Both great verses but I feel like Brandon can only catch em bars at times and the rest of you struggle pretty bad lol you guys are my favorite reaction channel keep it up!
Fun Fact: Wayne said in an interview that he had to rewrite his original verse on this track when he heard Em's verse. He wasn't gonna let Em outshine him on his own track.
And this was one of Em's first verses after Rehab
Nope that was on FORVER!
@@brajustinandthefamily and he still got outshined lol
@@BelchingBeaver69 imma Stan 😎. I’m just tryna correct him 👌
Mannn Eminem is a great rapper top 7 probably but bruh he never ate Wayne in any songs just non black people always hype about him
@@brajustinandthefamily he never said it for forever either, that was kanye. you a fake stan? 😮
Em literally paints the picture of Kanye snatching the mic from Taylor Swift. After he says, “Where the fuck is Kanye when you need him?”
“Snatch the mic from him, bitch I'ma let you finish in a minute
Yeah, that rap was tight, but I'm 'bout to spit the greatest verse of all time”
Kanye said “I’m really happy for you imma let you finish but Beyonce had one of the best videos of all time.” After Taylor just won Video of the year.
