    Love the effect on Jelly Roll's vocals in the end. It's as if Eminem is in the grave and he's singing above him and there's this layer of earth between them that changes the sound or maybe how it would sound from inside the casket. Just like when someone's playing music loud inside of a closed car. It's details like this that show the artistry and thought that's put into it.

    Here's a reading I think is very interesting: this song could be about Shady, not Marshall. Hence, "The Death of Slim Shady"
    When Em got sober, Shady "died" -- whether he's still here as a 'spirit' or not. Shady didn't get to "live" past ~2008, he didn't get to see the kids grow up, he didn't get to see Hailie's podcast or marriage... but Marshall did. We know he was there for all of that (well, Hailie doesn't have a child yet, but that's besides the point)
    That's why it sounds like Arose, but without the optimistic message of "I'll get out of this mess, and be there for all of you. Trust me." Shady doesn't have another shot, he has to go back in the grave and accept defeat. "He's a lost cause" as Jelly Roll's outro goes.
    It can also be read as if Eminem did physically die in '07, but I think this is a fun and fitting version.

    This DEFINITELY picks up where his falling in the bathroom from his methadone overdose in 2007. This is a very hard hitting song. One of my friends from high school died from an overdose shortly after graduating. That was 35 years ago. His name is Robert "Rob" Huber. R.I.P. Bob. And all those who have died from an overdose.
    And, Hailie just got married a couple of months ago. And, he walked her down the aisle and had the first dance with her.
    The reverse theory is fact and we will see it happen soon when Em releases Shady for the last time. My thoughts are it will be an all Shady album. I think on December 10th. If you paid attention to the 855 phone number, now inactive, the 313 was for Detroit and the 5746 I believe is coded as if you add 5 and 7 you get 12 and 4 and 6 is obviously 10. Plus it's a Tuesday which is another album release day during the week. Unless he goes with Friday, December 13th instead. Plus, the 1st overseas concert in Bahrain is on 12-10-24. There is that 12-10 again. But, I could be HELLA reaching on my theory. So........

      @@yeshevishman that’s what it was 20 years ago. He has changed, I 100% believe that Eminem doesn’t have negative views towards all the groups he raps about on this album. I really don’t think he sits around thinking about Caitlyn Jenner or cares about her being trans nor does he sit wishing he could kick a midget. He’s purposely thinking of offensive shit to get a rise out of people. 20 years ago he had legitimate reasons to feel angry and the things he got attacked for had way more serious accusations like his music influencing school shootings, so he would lean into it but it always had a deeper message “middle America, now it’s a tragedy to see an upper class city having this happen, then attack Eminem cause I rap this way.” He had a deeper point with all of his takes unless it was pure satire, and today in 2024 i believe this whole album was satirical. Satire is hard to do nowadays though because people are stupid and will take things literal, when he says “let’s take it back to 2003 and hit the reset button, how did we get stuck in this woke bs…” I know people are gonna hear that and be in full support and say that people today are too woke and sensitive but I believe Eminem doesn’t mean what he’s saying, I believe he’s probably a caring person who is just being tongue and cheek and is okay with how things are changing to include more people, he just likes to stir the pot like he always has and give the fans a nostalgic album. Guilty concience 2, temporary, and somebody save me are all songs that tell you exactly why he’s retiring the Shady persona, it represents dark times and all the faults in his life and he is more mature and way past that type of thinking. If I’m wrong about this all being satire than the album is super cringe. The concept only works if he is self aware of how ridiculous his “offensive” bars are.

      No. Its an alternate reality like he said in the 3rd verse

      I almost wonder if he wrote this before he overdosed... and then went back and added in some lines for this album, post addiction and recovery.

      No, the third verse clearly shows he was talking about alternate reality..

    "Alternate reality but i know ill turn it around" is Eminem's hint to play the album backwards

      The album backwards theory is debunked by several moments in the album, this theory is silly and needs to sizzle out.

    Always look forward to your POV and just have to say thank you @knoxhill for all of your hard work breaking down this album. It's helped me appreciate this album a thousand times more than the first listen. The layers are plentiful!
