@@vezon9436 exactly which would mean thT he knows about it enough to express it while at the same time now that he's sober for 15 yrs, he isn't the same person. So the 1st story is about em, the rapper who's nervous and anxious. Second is the story/perspective of fhe shooter and the third being the story of a drug addict
The struggles of being an artst, the struggles of being someone with mental health issues, The struggles of an addict, The struggles of depression, and the actual story of the shooting...you can see this from many varied point of views, that's why the song is so impactful, cuz it's talking initially about mass shootings, but its still relatable to the ordinary man/woman.
when em says “i don’t wanna be lonely in the darkness”, he also could be saying he doesn’t want to die alone, which could be em’s explanation as to why the shooter might’ve done what he did.
NGTHERAPPER on soundcloud and every other platform, including spotify and apple music. I only have one song on the paid platforms, but I do have more on soundcloud, if you wanna react to my music, @TheThirdEarnest
Ernest: “Just remember, y’all motherf*ckers wanted Slim Shady, y’all weren’t ready for Slim Shady!” Facts fam!! This video went in so deep on so many levels with the undertones of Sounds of Silence (original song is about war) fits perfectly with the double sides of this but also the war in your mind for those with mental health issues... chills
This track and Stan have absolutely nothing in common though. The dude in this track isn't an Eminem fan. He's a psychopath, that killed and injured a shitload of people in Vegas.
It really pissed me off that the third Ernest doesn’t have a much larger following. Instead of sitting in front of a camera just saying “that’s a bar” or making faces at good lines he actually dives into the lyrics and gives insight on the meanings. It’s sad seeing people have 100-200k+ followings for just making faces in a “reaction” video
Yh i agree but you cant hate cause after all its a reaction channel you’re here to see their reaction if u want to breakdowns there are loads of breakdown channels plus breakdowns normally takes a longer time of the video so some people dont like long videos and just want to see the reaction:)
It'll happen. I love how thoroughly he dissects the double and triple meanings, doesn't just react or rephrase what was said. He really digs in and breaks it down.
"This generation of rap and hip hop fans, ya'll weren't ready for Slim Shady' - absolutely right. They have no idea what's in store for them. Hopefully some of these clowns will now understand why millions and millions call this man a legend, a goat 🐐🐐🐐
@@TheThirdErnest exactly, still have vivid memories of where I was when MMLP and The Emienm Show released. MMLP released right when i got my drivers liscense, those were good times. Man, high school was SO long ago lol
I feel this is what Eminem wanted to do with Reveival, but here the production and message is so much more interesting with the storytelling. Great song and video
Alejandro Lopez you really think Eminem is worried about ppl who are sensitive? Lol nuh it’s why we’re all so drawn to him, because he crosses lines no celeb will ever go.
This is the most powerful song I have ever heard from em...that has so many bars but at the same time makes you think of how the world really came to be..
He is in front of a sold out crowd but by himself in the dark in the chair...ooh so relatable. Also, at least one person shares your mindset on agreeing to disagree. We could all be much better to each other and should.
I don't think it necessarily is so different. Because "I tried so hard and got so far, but in the end it doesn't even matter" would work very well when - sadly without much of a doubt - this video and the message ("Stop selling civilians automatic rifles") will sink into the darkness. People will move on and think of something else, the ballsy move of putting even MORE of his fanbase on the line for this video might not even make a difference. But in the end, if nothing changes? His move didn't even matter. When it comes to gun-laws, I fear that NOTHING matters in the US. No matter how many people will speak out for some type of regulation for at least the ones that have no other purpose than killing many people. I fear that even if people would go and shoot ten schools down at the exact same time, or maybe one school in every state at the same time, even THEN nothing will change. Because "guns don't kill people". *headdesk* I have a gun myself, for hunting. I know how good it feels to handle one, the little thrill it gives you. And yes, there are MORE responsible gun-owners than there are irresponsible ones - undoubtedly. Yet what I don't get is why RESPONSIBLE people can think that it's the responsible thing to own "sky's the limit"-amounts of murder-weapons. Hell, if y'all want, have a gun! Have two, if you feel safer. But people who truly think they NEED AK47s to be safe have a whole different problem that should be looked at by a trained professional because that's a lot of fear. And if they don't really need it... well. What do they have it for? Sorry for the digression here. Feel free to ignore me
I'm a gun fan (ex-military) and I moved to Australia 7 years ago. I used to think I'd really dislike not being able to have a weapon in my house but now, I have to say, It's pretty cool knowing 99.9 dont have weapons.
@@caiomathiowetz3486 Aaahh, yes...the infamous "police" who are only minutes away when seconds count. I don't think you understand the concept of response times. I literally live in a place where it can take more than an hour for the police to arrive. You can be killed hundreds of times before they get there. And if you think Europe is a place without *ANY* weapons you are totally clueless or extremely naive. Believe it or not, but criminals where you live still have weapons, whether that be guns, grenades, knives, hammers, axes or whatever. The only people following the gun laws are law abiding citizens like yourself. A law isn't going to stop a criminal from having a weapon. But even if you lived in a country without any sort of weapons, you should still have a right to defend your own life when someone attacks you unarmed. If you are a woman, child, old or disabled person you stand absolutely no chance against a determined man in his twenties when you have no gun to defend yourself with. It's even worse if you're facing a multiple assailants (like a gang)
I’m a gun owner and I respect this song to spread awareness. His not talking about taking away guns, but he is talking about mass shootings and we as people should find a middle ground to solve this. I like what Em did here.
Yeah I got the feel he was saying people needs to do anything not just let it happen. I don’t think he’s got a specific idea just getting people to care
I love how Em is like...yeah Nick this is how little you matter...you thought I was dropping something about you....nah He had way deeper issues on his mind. 😳
This is the only true reaction/breakdown that keeps it G and catches all the bars channel that I want to watch. Your channels need to blow up dude. WORD!!!
Mannn I saw a notification for this and I was like oh shit..I found my headphones and then I realized em dropped a whole damn album..so needless to say I'm on 3hrs of sleep today lol as always great breakdown..you explain things perfectly:)
I perceived this song in a completely different way the second time I listened to it, yet both times found heavy meaning. Right after hearing it I was excited to see your reaction because you always give the best insight. i'm looking forward to more of your reactions to this album, keep up the great work man
You have broke down the song and video on the next level. You all wanted him back... he's BACK 100%... I am so glad he's back. Eminem has got so much to say, and he has a great way to ignite debate. Rock on Eminem!!! I love listening to your Lyrics, and love your controversial Video clips. Together they are just amazing! A few minutes in a clip, and your Lyrics matched perfect... just amaze me how long they can touch ones life...
Yooo i was just listening to the song the first time thinking of when you're going to drop a reaction and... I receive a notification of the reaction 😂😂 what a great day!
Couldn't agree more. The way the song and video was put together is a prime example of Em's genius. I strongly disagree with his ideas of solutions, but you have to respect the hell out of his talent.
stylezNsmilez why exactly? Ur gun laws have a serious problem. A change is needed not necessary a shutdown of ur right. Mental health care would be more than enough
@@caiomathiowetz3486 u did hear Eminem say "no signs of mental illness", did u? The problem is the guns. It's not the media or mental health or video games, it's guns. One can tell, because every country has people with mental illness who are stigmatized and often don't get the help they need, that is tragic, but doesn't cause mass shootings. America is the only 1st world country with this mass shooting problem. The difference is the broad availability of guns.
i am soooo glad that i am watching your video to breakdown all the lyrics. It is make ma more understand how the story goes . we miss this type of lyrical . good job ernest !! LOVE FROM MALAYSIA
The whole song is a double entendre between the mass shooter and his own issues/addictions. He’s trying to prove that there doesn’t necessarily have to be an outstanding reason for people to “lose it” so to speak. Great video!
He also mentioned that since the killer didn’t have felonies he was able to buy any gun he wanted and ammo, it was infinite for him. So it was like he was military with the shit he had in that room.
What's really crazy is the original song "sound of silence" was about being lonely in the dark. The dude wrote it in a bathroom woth the lights ofd, describing what he could feel but couldn't see...Em just remade it for 2020 with the same theme but from a different perspetive of gun violence.
Great reaction love your insights. You are right to say this song/video/album is going to set some people off but it is an amazing piece of work and I hope Eminem is happy with what he produced cause it is 🔥! And that is coming from a 53 year old female who is back to enjoying rap music. Thanks TTE for staying up to do this!
I'm from Brazil and I think your videos and analysis are great, I already subscribed to the channel to see the other videos, congratulations on the content and I hope you have a lot more subscribers, thanks for the videos
I completely agree with you. Also if this wasn't brought up it would never get talked about, so for Eminem to use his platform in such a way to make this bold statement will get people talking and thinking about the issue. Which will then hopefully get things in order to change or make things better. Instead of it being left and then eventually forgotten about until it unfortunately happens again
I CANT BELIEVE YOU CALLED THAT!!! This song was 🔥 and another 🔥 reaction! And I agree with you 110%, everyone has a different opinion, and it doesn’t mean you should hate if someone has a different belief.
From a Mama's perspective . Vegas happened in October 2017. There have been 41 mass shootings in 2019 with reported 210 dead. May all victims Rest in Peace. My thoughts and prayers go out to all affected. Piano keys playing Melody of " the sound of silence" Simon and Garfunkel. In the song it's speaks of The singer who seems to realise what we are in essence - lonely people, living in the darkness, in the void. Maybe we are aware we are familiar with the darkness , but he has had a “vision softly creeping” , a sort of inspiring dream that has triggered a sort of self-awareness, of enlightenment. Mental health is such an issue. We throw pharmaceuticals at issues while avoiding the underlying issue Our children are growing up witnessing life thru online filters, with snapshots of " fake" perfect lives. For likes and views. And they begin to wonder why their life isn't that perfect, what can be wrong with them. When anyone is being measured up by such a cold assessment, wow. They face isolation at school and also bullied for being different. Society is so harsh. No one I feel is really putting down devices and making human connection. The eyes are the windows to the soul but how will you know what is going on inside someone if you don't look them in the eye. Acceptance that we are all human despite our differences I feel is part of the answer. So much anger and hate, agree to disagree, but realize that self medicating or prescribed medicating isn't always the only answer. Reach out to someone if you feel like harming yourself or another. Rest in peace 🙏💔 PTSD is very real if you are affected by such tragedies please seek assistance Stepping off soap box now it's just I'm passionate about my kiddos future and yours.
@@UpInYourFeelings Gice me a reason, why life is so good? And why if I feel I think I don't wanna suffer anymore that I don't have the right to just that, I gear the BS, " it's selfish" well is it nit selfish that I should keep living cause of "others feelings", it's my life I think I held out enough.... Sry but talking, going away meds don't always fix everything.
Start A Movement every one of us has the ability to harm ourselves but please don’t do it. Take that energy and point it elsewhere. Release those feelings into art. Any kind of art! You are able and you are worthy. God bless
@@flightlessbird6860 1st off appreciate the response but in my belief and please respect it just as I respect yours to have have that belief, there is no god, but I do appreciate the sytement, but nah, I lived long enough... I don't want nor seek pity, I don't need or deserve it. It won't be real soon but my journey here is done. There is no situation where things go up, just down fast and relentless, shame the disgusting people in this thing we call life aren't all as good ass you seem to be. Just the preaching is a bit much but it's your right. I don't feel the need to put mine into every comment or conversation. You have a good one. Oh BTW, I always thought as "sound if silence" is something that would take effect after a nuclear explosion "neon God we made" being the flash of light right after "talking without speaking" everyone in shock and disbelief but no words are needed, being everyone just looking at eachother would in itself speak volumes and "hearing without listening" you go deaf after the explosion but you'd again know everyone heard what you did.... But I guess any event of a swift violent nature would be the same... And even with the mass shooting I still think SHALL NOT BE INFRINGED speaks for itself, last I checked Chicago has the strictist gun laws, our rights are trampled enough by the tyrants in the government I hold no. Political affiliations, because I know for a fact, that regardless who's in that white house, the propaganda, their agenda, and the narrative, will all remain the same because, our government and so called public servants and officials, are nothing but scapegoats and puppets, for those really pulling string. Enjoy your night have a good one.
I really appreciate you man. I feel such passion for Eminems art. And often I feel alone. like others don't understand. Watching you makes me feel alive in a weird way, like I'm not alone! Or not crazy lol keep on doing it bro!
I've watched a few reactions of you to songs and I'm amazed by the eye for details you have. For me as a non native this is very very helpful to scratch out details like the TV screens in the shape of USA. I really appreciate your work, please keep it up.
It's a sneaky way to kinda prepare what you're seeing is at face value because it's showing him rapping and dressed the same but also all the gun references
I literally got so nervous when I noticed he was talking about Las Vegas but also you would get confused thinking it was his own concert. My god this was crazy 😭😭😭
This song hit deep. After all the shootings and everything I literally live next to the shooting hat that happened in Texas. Heard this song as I was about to go to bed last night. Hits hard man. Love the reaction as always. (Still going to pester you about K.A.A.N even though I’m not expecting it any time soon because of the two new albums.)
Dude get ready for it! Album is fire! 🔥🔥🔥 he told this story simultaneously from the the perspective of the metal illness and the shooter!! Only Em could do this.
yeah its a late comment but hopefully the ALGORITHM boosts things. Great reaction as always. My sister goes to that show though almost every time. Not that time but still freaks me out.To comment on just the art of this video, it's amazing.
Deep song. Like I have said before, em (the best) has so many layers and you help break them down. Wait to see more from you. You talk pure facts. Thanks.
Your message at the end is so much of who I am personally, today. There are people out there with some disgusting beliefs, in my opinion, but when I took the time to really get to know them we still had so many things in common. The more I connect with people who have some opposing beliefs to me, the more that I show them and myself, that we are all more alike than not. In the end most people want the same fundamental things; To be heard, to be loved, to be respected, to inspire, and you have a genuine connection with people.
My bad about the 30 seconds of black at 2:30. Lol
it fits with the song being called Darkness
TheThirdErnest we’ll allow it this time lol

Allister Field and mental illness.. the whole song is a double maybe triple entendre. No other rapper has ever done this. It’s genius.

I’ve seen plenty of people breaking down the lyrics and he’s done the same thing. Makes faces and basically says that’s a bar.
The entire song has a double meaning. Every line could be talking about Em or the shooter, works both ways. 🔥
"With the Benzos gone its just magazines sprawled out" Benzino and the Source!!!!
KONAN that flew over my head man lol 👍
Nice catch! I did not pick up on that.
Good catch man 👌
And talking about mags, clips...all two meanings
Yea. And “Benzos” also means Benzodiazepines (AKA nerve pills - Xanax, Klonapins, Valiums, etc..)
"This generation of rap and hip hop fans, ya'll weren't ready for Slim Shady' - absolutely right. They have no idea what's in store for them. Hopefully some of these clowns will now understand why millions and millions call this man a legend, a goat 🐐🐐🐐
This whole song is an entendre - he legit told two stories in every line
Yeah? What’s the 3rd story
I agree, but I wouldn’t call that a separate story. Thats a theme of both stories
@Reischa Parker it could also be American as a whole
5:26 under his breath he says " double entendre" he had to break it down to people IN the song
Omg my 3rd time watching this today. Just heard that
Victor N.Lewis OH SHIT , good catch homie
bcz some people don't get it like mumble rappers fans ☻💔

As always probably the best reactor on RUclips, speaking straight facts as always... 🔥 Both the Eminem video and your video!
When he says "that's alot of shots" you can hear him but just barely after say "double entendre" 🔥🔥

how is that fire? that is retarded xD ppl get it is a double entendre lmao
I HEARD IT!!!! FINALLY!! I CAUGHT ON!! (Well, after, you said that!!!)
One thing that makes me smile even more than Eminem dropping a new album, is the fact I'll get to watch you break it all down. Massive respect Ernest!
Appreciate it!!
This is the most powerful song I have ever heard from em...that has so many bars but at the same time makes you think of how the world really came to be..
"Toy Soldiers"
Headlights?
When you say there’s no metaphors that whole thing is a metaphor
Lol I know. I just meant not like each and every single line is double meaning on top of the song double meaning lol
Guess the DOUBLE DOUBLE on the John Travolta phrase. I got goosebumps after digging in.
The Vegas bars are also a play on/reference to the Hunter S. Thompson book, “Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas”.
He says loathing in Las Vegas
jcsantos0005 Right... which is the point I was making.
@@LandonChapman lol whooosh!
Vegas bars also reference the shooter himself. He was a well known high roller at the casinos.
Also a reference to a movie with the same title with Johnny Depp (based on the book)
He is in front of a sold out crowd but by himself in the dark in the chair...ooh so relatable.
Also, at least one person shares your mindset on agreeing to disagree. We could all be much better to each other and should.
This song was produced by Em and Royce
this is why i keep saying royce is very underrated
@@lywill6832 definitely!!!
Royce is a beast
Royce also produced "You gon' learn" on this album.
How did u know that?
I love your breakdowns man! Always looking forward for them! Keep grinding up to the 100 k bro!
I literally shake watching this video. It is so intense. The album is really good too.
Same, it gives me chills as soon as chorus comes in
Linkin Park called it many a year ago- "In the end, it doesn't even matter"
this is a different meaning what em means in this song is that we'll move on and forget about it soon
I don't think it necessarily is so different. Because "I tried so hard and got so far, but in the end it doesn't even matter" would work very well when - sadly without much of a doubt - this video and the message ("Stop selling civilians automatic rifles") will sink into the darkness.

Eminem: hold my beer
Lmao man I was like one sad to another sad lol
Yooo i was just listening to the song the first time thinking of when you're going to drop a reaction and... I receive a notification of the reaction 😂😂 what a great day!
"The sound of silence" sample brooo
Makes this such an eery sounding song but so beautiful how its put together
Love it!!!!!
This is a wise take by Ernest. It’s possible to both disagree with a person’s politics and simultaneously appreciate their artistry.
Amen
I agree. I didn't like message at the end of the video but i am impressed on how he delivered it
Couldn't agree more. The way the song and video was put together is a prime example of Em's genius. I strongly disagree with his ideas of solutions, but you have to respect the hell out of his talent.
stylezNsmilez why exactly? Ur gun laws have a serious problem. A change is needed not necessary a shutdown of ur right. Mental health care would be more than enough
@@caiomathiowetz3486 u did hear Eminem say "no signs of mental illness", did u?
The problem is the guns. It's not the media or mental health or video games, it's guns. One can tell, because every country has people with mental illness who are stigmatized and often don't get the help they need, that is tragic, but doesn't cause mass shootings. America is the only 1st world country with this mass shooting problem. The difference is the broad availability of guns.
Listen to the beat
"Hello darkness my old friend "
"Iv come to talk to you again "
If u know the song you know what I mean
The sound of silence reimagined by David dramen (disturbed)
i am soooo glad that i am watching your video to breakdown all the lyrics. It is make ma more understand how the story goes . we miss this type of lyrical . good job ernest !!
LOVE FROM MALAYSIA
ayyy🇲🇾
You know Ernest is dope when you are excitedly waiting for his breakdown of the video immediately after hearing the song. Much love fam!
Armed to the teeth. Words as weapons behind your teeth. Eminem with that word play goat level genius
If you listen closely, Em says “double entendre” at 5:25 after “that’s a lot of shots, huh”
The whole song is a double entendre between the mass shooter and his own issues/addictions. He’s trying to prove that there doesn’t necessarily have to be an outstanding reason for people to “lose it” so to speak. Great video!
“My brain is primed to look for metaphors”
Half way through
HALF WAY THROUGH A WHOLE SONG METAPHOR
This is seriously one of the best reactions I’ve seen. You broke everything down perfectly. Such an eagle eye/ear!
He also mentioned that since the killer didn’t have felonies he was able to buy any gun he wanted and ammo, it was infinite for him. So it was like he was military with the shit he had in that room.
Been watching you for quit some time... But this video... this made me a subscriber. Attention for detail in the lyrics, musicvideo and meaning..
What's really crazy is the original song "sound of silence" was about being lonely in the dark. The dude wrote it in a bathroom woth the lights ofd, describing what he could feel but couldn't see...Em just remade it for 2020 with the same theme but from a different perspetive of gun violence.
"People need to be more fucking chill." Truth.
Great reaction love your insights. You are right to say this song/video/album is going to set some people off but it is an amazing piece of work and I hope Eminem is happy with what he produced cause it is 🔥! And that is coming from a 53 year old female who is back to enjoying rap music. Thanks TTE for staying up to do this!
I'm from Brazil and I think your videos and analysis are great, I already subscribed to the channel to see the other videos, congratulations on the content and I hope you have a lot more subscribers, thanks for the videos
I completely agree with you. Also if this wasn't brought up it would never get talked about, so for Eminem to use his platform in such a way to make this bold statement will get people talking and thinking about the issue. Which will then hopefully get things in order to change or make things better. Instead of it being left and then eventually forgotten about until it unfortunately happens again
this is the first reaction video i see from you... and you sir earned my "like" and a follower.
I’m honestly in awe rnow of how well Ernest is able to break this stuff down, y’all this man wild 😂
😂😂😂😂✊🏽✊🏽✊🏽
I’ve viewed at least 10-12 reaction videos for this same song and I must say that yours is the most genuine, informative video thus far. Thank you!
I CANT BELIEVE YOU CALLED THAT!!!
This song was 🔥 and another 🔥 reaction! And I agree with you 110%, everyone has a different opinion, and it doesn’t mean you should hate if someone has a different belief.
Your analysis and your view is just so good!
You can hear the sirens in the background. Heard that in the 4th listen. Foreshadowing...damn. 😭
I really like the way you break down these videos. Keep up the great work. TB
From a Mama's perspective . Vegas happened in October 2017. There have been 41 mass shootings in 2019 with reported 210 dead.
May all victims Rest in Peace. My thoughts and prayers go out to all affected.
Piano keys playing Melody of " the sound of silence" Simon and Garfunkel. In the song it's speaks of The singer who seems to realise what we are in essence - lonely people, living in the darkness, in the void. Maybe we are aware we are familiar with the darkness , but he has had a “vision softly creeping” , a sort of inspiring dream that has triggered a sort of self-awareness, of enlightenment.
Mental health is such an issue. We throw pharmaceuticals at issues while avoiding the underlying issue Our children are growing up witnessing life thru online filters, with snapshots of " fake" perfect lives. For likes and views. And they begin to wonder why their life isn't that perfect, what can be wrong with them. When anyone is being measured up by such a cold assessment, wow. They face isolation at school and also bullied for being different. Society is so harsh. No one I feel is really putting down devices and making human connection. The eyes are the windows to the soul but how will you know what is going on inside someone if you don't look them in the eye. Acceptance that we are all human despite our differences I feel is part of the answer. So much anger and hate, agree to disagree, but realize that self medicating or prescribed medicating isn't always the only answer. Reach out to someone if you feel like harming yourself or another.
Rest in peace 🙏💔
PTSD is very real if you are affected by such tragedies please seek assistance
Stepping off soap box now it's just I'm passionate about my kiddos future and yours.
This needs to be pinned.
@@UpInYourFeelings Gice me a reason, why life is so good? And why if I feel I think I don't wanna suffer anymore that I don't have the right to just that, I gear the BS, " it's selfish" well is it nit selfish that I should keep living cause of "others feelings", it's my life I think I held out enough.... Sry but talking, going away meds don't always fix everything.
Start A Movement every one of us has the ability to harm ourselves but please don’t do it. Take that energy and point it elsewhere. Release those feelings into art. Any kind of art! You are able and you are worthy. God bless
@@flightlessbird6860 1st off appreciate the response but in my belief and please respect it just as I respect yours to have have that belief, there is no god, but I do appreciate the sytement, but nah, I lived long enough... I don't want nor seek pity, I don't need or deserve it. It won't be real soon but my journey here is done. There is no situation where things go up, just down fast and relentless, shame the disgusting people in this thing we call life aren't all as good ass you seem to be. Just the preaching is a bit much but it's your right. I don't feel the need to put mine into every comment or conversation. You have a good one. Oh BTW, I always thought as "sound if silence" is something that would take effect after a nuclear explosion "neon God we made" being the flash of light right after "talking without speaking" everyone in shock and disbelief but no words are needed, being everyone just looking at eachother would in itself speak volumes and "hearing without listening" you go deaf after the explosion but you'd again know everyone heard what you did.... But I guess any event of a swift violent nature would be the same... And even with the mass shooting I still think SHALL NOT BE INFRINGED speaks for itself, last I checked Chicago has the strictist gun laws, our rights are trampled enough by the tyrants in the government I hold no. Political affiliations, because I know for a fact, that regardless who's in that white house, the propaganda, their agenda, and the narrative, will all remain the same because, our government and so called public servants and officials, are nothing but scapegoats and puppets, for those really pulling string. Enjoy your night have a good one.
This a totally different melody than the sound of silence, compare the two together and you’ll see it’s not similar at all
Im super late..but well done bro..im just now getting caught up on a bunch of ur reactions. Ur definately favorite rn. Keep it up homie!
The rap show stuff is how everyone keep jumping back and forth betwin in his fandom hating him then loving him at least that's what I got from it
Bro, I have watched maybe 10 reaction videos and your breakdown and explanation of the video is on fuckin point. Just subscribed! Good shyt!
I really appreciate you man. I feel such passion for Eminems art. And often I feel alone. like others don't understand. Watching you makes me feel alive in a weird way, like I'm not alone! Or not crazy lol keep on doing it bro!
I've watched a few reactions of you to songs and I'm amazed by the eye for details you have. For me as a non native this is very very helpful to scratch out details like the TV screens in the shape of USA. I really appreciate your work, please keep it up.
Damn excited to hear your reaction to the whole album.
Hope your channel blows up after this.. you deserve it
Hey great reaction video, you talk about a lot of facts. It's refreshing to hear.
Right after he says “that’s a lot of shots huh? You can hear him mumble the words “double entendre”
It's a sneaky way to kinda prepare what you're seeing is at face value because it's showing him rapping and dressed the same but also all the gun references
Refreshing take on the track and video. great work. keep it up
And Nick Cannon really thought that he had a real chance at sparking a battle with em.
The truth hurts, this country can’t handle the truth...
I was waiting for this video!
I literally got so nervous when I noticed he was talking about Las Vegas but also you would get confused thinking it was his own concert. My god this was crazy 😭😭😭
You're fire at explaining this fire! 💪
This song hit deep. After all the shootings and everything I literally live next to the shooting hat that happened in Texas. Heard this song as I was about to go to bed last night. Hits hard man. Love the reaction as always.
(Still going to pester you about K.A.A.N even though I’m not expecting it any time soon because of the two new albums.)
Best lyrics breakdown bro....keep it up....Kudos ❤️
This song is GENIUS, one of the best songs in rap in the past few years
This is the best explanation of the video and song I have seen on RUclips great reaction 😫
Thank you so much!!
Eminem is a Genius!
Dude get ready for it! Album is fire! 🔥🔥🔥 he told this story simultaneously from the the perspective of the metal illness and the shooter!! Only Em could do this.
You did an excellent job breaking this down and also super random but love the set up of your room great job
Haha thank you! And thank you again! Did it myself lol
Your reviews are the best. You breakdown the lyrics very well. I appreciate your reviews very much. Love from Germany🇩🇪❤️
The video goes dark at 2:21 I thought my phone broke
Your phone couldnt handle the barz....is it an iphone? Lmao jk
Me too
yeah its a late comment but hopefully the ALGORITHM boosts things.
Great reaction as always. My sister goes to that show though almost every time. Not that time but still freaks me out.To comment on just the art of this video, it's amazing.
Had to dry me eyes a few times watching your breakdown of this, knew I stuck with you for good reason 👌♥️
Deep song. Like I have said before, em (the best) has so many layers and you help break them down. Wait to see more from you. You talk pure facts. Thanks.
The very first thing that came to mind when i saw this song is when thethirdernest is gonna react to it 🖤
Your message at the end is so much of who I am personally, today. There are people out there with some disgusting beliefs, in my opinion, but when I took the time to really get to know them we still had so many things in common. The more I connect with people who have some opposing beliefs to me, the more that I show them and myself, that we are all more alike than not. In the end most people want the same fundamental things; To be heard, to be loved, to be respected, to inspire, and you have a genuine connection with people.
I was listening to the song before school now it's after and I can watch you break it down lucky day!
great content, as always
Godzilla ft. Juice Wrld next!!!!!!!!
Edit: 2:20-2:57 is just a black screen
