I truly never get bored of witnessing someone experience the genius of eminem for the first time.
Agreed
I can't lie watching people react to Eminem has given me the most joy I've ever had in a few years 😂😂
@@grimreaper3472 its the closest we'll ever get to experiencing it for the first time.
Its a rush to see people connect the dots
haha exactly!
Especially a reaction by someone who listens mainly to certain genres. Like someone who you would think would only listen to Heavy Mental or Country and then turn around to do a reaction to Eminem & then starts to appreciate what all Em does and can do.

Metal biker dude pin this
Bless ur soul Lol u jus made this video so much easier for me
Always love when folks do this. Great service.
Appreciate this
Thank you my friend 👊😊🤝
Right when he said "My mom was fucked up" I knew he was gonna enjoy this album. Theres a reason why this album is 10x multi-platinum , diamond certified.
Lot of fucked up moms fr
The song 'Stan' blew up so hard that they added a new word in the Dictionary "Stan" which means An obsessive Fan. That's dope
Oddly enough I always thought it was overshadowed by his other songs, but in more recent times Stan finally got all the attention it deserved
@@thewildhealer541nah Stan has been beloved for a long time. It was hugely successful as well
Stan is genius honestly
Stalker/Fan = Stan.. 👍🏻
@@jbo4547He didn't say the song wasn't successful
This Album sold 1.76 million copies the first week it dropped and 34.8 million total copies, and YES it went Diamond. Eminem has won over 350 Awards including 15 Grammys and 1 Oscar along with many others, he's in the Genius Book of World Records over 10 times and even has his own word in the dictionary now "Stan". He is the (Artist of the Decade) with over 300 million album/single sold.
You should do the next Album Reaction LIVE (HIGHEST VIEWS COME FROM ANYTHING TO DO WITH EMINEM! ) and that way you can get all of your question answered on the spot by Stan's....it would definitely be interesting.
MrDenaun Porter Are you really Kon Artis??! If so, big fan, both as a lyricist and producer. I wish this guy would give Devil's Night a listen. ✌
MrDenaun Porter hey bro are you really mr porter ?
*(Guinness) Book of World Records
He is the goat. Glad that Tom MacDonald came around to take over from Em
The way I am was actually produced by Eminem.
mixed by Dre
You are not wrong sir, this album shifted the music industry and forced everyone to pay attention in one way or another as you have witnessed. The Album is Fire!
Personally, I think it's Eminem's best album to date. And I think it will always be the best album of his career. Followed by The Eminem Show.
@@GrazsPlace see most of Eminem's stuff is atleast serviceable so picking a favorite album for me would be hard but I really like this album and the slim shady LP
As a fan of a variety of music genres from different eras, I confidently believe Marshall Mathers LP is one of the greatest albums ever released. The word "timeless" is thrown around too much but it actually applies here. I sometimes forget how spectacular this is, until I hear it again. Respect
Paul is Eminem’s manager
And business partner. They co-founded and co-own Shady Records.
Yep. Paul Rosenberg
When this cd came out it was legitimately a full blown experience...buying the cd...going home and listening to it from beginning to end...lots of nostalgia and it's a classic album.
Fr, same with the eminem show. It was an Era.
@@allensmith.aaffect.1626 Same, was the second album I ever bought after hybrid theory, linkin park. I was definitely way too young to listen to this album but my parents had no idea what I was listening to at the time.
your reaction on Stan was priceless dude, I forgot how shocking this story was for me 22 years ago when I first heard this record. love your reaction on this one it brings back memories.
about that "Paul" skit, you have it in all of eminem albums up until 2010 Recovery in which he droped the skit concept. Paul Rosenberg is his manager and lawyer. those skits are basically Pauls reaction to his albums
When I was younger and ignoant I was that asshole that would not give rap a chance...and then someone at work put this album on and my musical world was shattered. I am so glad you are getting to hear this masterpiece of music.
\m/ \m/
There's good shit everywhere. It's rare to realize that before 30.
Nice. If your Just Now Getting into Eminem you got a long way to go. im kinda Jealous
I grew up on Hip Hop but I listen to everything from country to salsa. I used to try and convince stubborn rockers that they should give it a chance because it is its own style of poetry. That a beatbox would make Marie sound than any instrument can make.
Okay, calm down Eddie
I'm a former purist metalhead, that now enjoys everything from the raunchiest metal, to hip hop, to classical, to boogie woogie, with everything in between. Skill is skill and good music is good music.
Especially a reaction by someone who listens mainly to certain genres. Like someone who you would think would only listen to Heavy Mental or Country and then turn around to do a reaction to Eminem & then starts to appreciate what all Em does and can do.
Truth
I was a metal purist aswell back in the day, but Eminem always had a special place in my heart. By then I've really expanded my mind for more music, of all styles.
Yep
@@thomassmith4826 Interesting how metalheads gravitate hiphop in the end aswell. Maybe the lyrical themes are similar and the anger and sadness expressed through their music.
I literally get goosebumps every single time Em comes in on the 4th verse, "Dear stan, i meant to write you sooner but i just been busy" EVERY TIME!
Watching this man expirence my personal favorite album for the first time brings joy to my world
Marshall Mathers is his personal life in his music, normally very dark.
Eminem is his rap career, normally very serious.
Slim Shady is his jokey alter ego, usually funny but dark.
Marshall Mathers is easily my fave as it dives into his personal life and his darkest music is some his best.
I think the reason You don't like the Marshall Mathers song is because it has a lot of hip hop references and personal beefs references you didn't know about ... like help from d12 to beat up 2 females etc 2 females with make up he's talking about is insane clown posse
Golovkin Ko Yes, he's talking about underground rappers from Detroit, all of that. I understand why he didn't get it but it's a classic.
I think it also has to do with the fact it has a more R&B sound as opposed to funk.
Cole Hopfenberg because em headlined them without their permission nor even contacted them.
Cole Hopfenberg don't forget that sloppy toppy jay and shaggy give at the end. SLURP
Golovkin Ko and musically the song is like pop rock of that era.
one of the greatest albums of all time! I grew up on this
1:19:00 not sure if anyone has pointed this out but its cool you recognised Xzibits voice from like a 30 second cameo during Em's 8 Mile Movie 😂
Love the channel I'm a new subscriber!
yeah crazy he got that
Drug ballad is criminally underrated
Yep same as who knew
So is the ken kaniff skit
@@Oogidahboogidah I never knew I would get this big I never knew I affect this I never knew I would get him to slit his wrist I never knew I would get him hit this bitch. Banger
Word
A sitting supreme chancellor?!? Taking drugs?!?!?
You should do his next album The Eminem show
Ivan Acevedo Especially since it is a bit rock influenced he might quite enjoy it!
Need it
i think he would like Relapse aswell :)
This is his best album by far... The only one that is close is Slim Shady LP
I'm a huge Em fan but a few of his albums are kinda lame and goofy. (Encore, recovery, relapse)
I agree with respawnz. Slim shady lp. Older is better with Eminem. He gets too political the farther you go into his career.
3 years late to the party but I gotta say it: watching you discover this album brought me back to when I was going into the 9th grade and heard it for the first time myself. We can never get the initial reaction back so it was great to witness this. Thank you for that.
Also, those moments when eminem's word play and humor make you want to pause the song and let it sink in.. he has never lost that, either. I think (at least to me) that is part of his longevity. Listening to any of his releases take me back to being a kid and being transfixed by his wordplay, delivery and humor
I wish he had the ordinal music videos too that would have added to much to the experience
Absolutely nostalgic
I remember listening to this album when it came out and being blown away, ever since then, I've been a die hard Eminem fan despite being a metalhead. I haven't listened to this album in a few years but listening along to it with you while you react is honestly a trip down memory lane. Awesome video.
The fact that you picked Xzibit voice and pulled it from the 8 mile movie is amazing
He’s got a pretty distinct voice, and that’s a pretty popular movie. It’s not exactly amazing
I honestly thought he might of said "pimp my ride".. which would have been funny.. but referencing the 8 mile scene was amazing, and spot fucking on!
@@SnailHatan exactly, it’s like picking dmx or pop smoke outta a line up. Like his voice is very distinct.
@@SnailHatan ok Alfred.
@@joebk44 it's amazing considering how small Xzibit's part is. I know and like Xzibit but often forget he was even in 8-Mile.
MMLP is easily one of the greatest hip hop albums of all time.
Objective fact.
Sslp Tes Mmlp are Eminem’s infinite masterstroke.
@marc rodney saying it’s one of the greatest albums ever is not disrespectful at all tf? Lol
@marc rodney basically even if it's not your opinion, not putting eminem on a top 10 is disrespectful, as not putting pac. But you're free to do so, but not correct.
@@parallaxdoxus for me,em is not top 100...so many better came before and after
That, "little Eric jumps over the terrace," line is a jab at Eric Clapton, who's son died after falling off of a ledge. The nanny was watching him. Damn.
I knew Eric Claptons son died...didnt know that was who he was referencing...my name is Eric too so I always loved that bar.
He's also uses the name Erik in white America.
Na I dont think that was it.
@@NarcFreeFormula yes, it was. "Don't blame me when little Eric jumps off of the terrace, you shoulda been watching him, apparently you ain't parents." Who could he have been talking about?
@@JerichoGreen1 wow never heard about that one, you shure? did he and clapton have any personal issues?
Dre is one of the greatest producers ever.. I put him on par with Phil Spector, Rick Ruben, and the RZA
That's def a hof list
Had Taylor not died, I would have loved to see him do a Foo Fighters album. He loved Nirvana so im sure he'd love to work with Dave.
“The way I am” was actually one of the first songs Eminem produced himself
He also wrote it in like 1 or 2 days, following the meeting parodied on the track before it. He was told by the label none of the songs were single worthy for radio and he had to come up with a new song or no album. He went home, locked himself in the lab and wrote the way I am.
It's an amazing song.
Its my go to for when im asked my favorite
The emotion still hits me years later
@@OpherChrist82 IIRC they wanted him to write another My Name Is as well, in which, he wrote this and The Real Slim Shady in a day or two.
@marc rodney its possible em said he produced some of his better tracks
@@NOTSUSPICIOUS no
He's called Eminem because its a play on his name Marshall Mathers - M&M
He once called himself M&M, but he changed it so he wont have problems with the copyright
You're a great reactor! One of the best, your heart is in it, and you understand music. just pure gems and gold. for me, it felt like you was going live. BIG RESPECT!!!
I bought this album when it came out, 1 of the greatest albums of all time, some of those I haven't heard in a while but my top 5
1) The Way I Am (every em fan knows word for word)
2) Kill You
3) Criminal
4) Bitch Please II
5) Under the Influence
As a metal head myself, I love seeing other metal fans appreciate the genius that is Eminem. His lyricism is unmatched and his sense of humor is on point, as you noticed. Also, there is a lot of crossover fans of Korn (and metal in general) and Eminem.
Korn, Em, Blink, Greenday, No Doubt, Dre, Snoop, and others in this late 90s early 2000s. I love it all. This era of music was middle school through high school. Eminem though is probably the best artist out of the era. I hope people appreciate his music in 50+ years like people with the beatles, rush, U2, etc
Music is one, no different genres really
💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽
I've always said that if he never made it in music he'd be a comedian.
@marc rodney Well... my first order from BMG (waaaaaaay back in the day) consisted of Korn-Korn, Tool-Undertow, STP-Core, Dr. Dre-The Chronic, Snoop-Doggystyle, and Warren G-Regulate.. G Funk Era. I'm white and grew up in Bismarck, ND sooooo I guess you're wrong. 😏 Maybe you shouldn't paint a group with such a wide brush. Makes YOU look like those you are casting judgement on.
The song "Marshall Mathers" is one of those songs that you have to know previous knowledge about his career and all the drama surrounding his career in order to appreciate the lyrics, that's it man. 🤘🤘
Him talking through that song is what made me comment lol
@Ryan Cosby I mean, it's not the most obvious metaphor, it's damn stylish, but you can take it literally, especially if you mishear a few words.
One of the best Em beats - by the great Bass Brothers
Yeah I address this in my text dump. There's a lot of references to his "beef" with Insane Clown Posse who gave him a very dumb "diss" name which he destroys in one line. But, not to speak for Metal Biker Dude, but I think it wasn't the lyrics (as he compliments them) but rather the lack of a bass line & the use of a guitar (which he reaches for after).
It's also hard to like a song that you talk over the entire time. Talking about unrelated things. He missed 80% of the subject matter.
I'm not sure how this ended up in my recommended videos but I'm glad it did. Seeing genuine reactions to my childhood CD's is very refreshing. Love your reactions on the intentionally funny parts because its the exact same thing I did.. a "WTF" followed by laughter. Except I was in my teens so awesome to see this transcend generations with the same reactions. Well done.
favourite Em album of all time here and Remember Me and Amityville have been on rotation for the past 20 years.
"The fuck is wrong with this guy" is the exact thing everyone says when they hear Bizarre for the 1st time 🤣
I vote listening to the album Kendrick Lamar - good kid m.A.A.d city
MrDivined What about To Pimp A Butterfly?
Garbage
YES! good kid m.A.A.d city is an amazing album
GKMC first and foremost then TPAB then Sect80 and then don’t even listen to DAMN
grape conqs all his albums are great even damn, you just gotta know how it fits in his discography
Man this is the peak of Eminem right here. MMLP was his best album along with Eminem Show. Young, hungry, aggressive Slim Shady slaying any rappers on that era.
Junzstyle Madapaka Slim Shady Lp
Out there absolutely slayin the whole game in that era. Nobody wanted smoke with the crazy white boy.
I love Ems newest albums too tho. Music to be murdered by is incredible
So refreshing seeing a genuine reaction on youtube, loved it
Remember Me¿ was my favorite track as a 5 year old when the album dropped and my older brother bought it. Eminem got me hooked from that day on
i love how real this guy is. he doesnt sugar coat shit to be appealing to the whole population. hes gonna have a strong fan base for sure
eminem or metal guy? lmao
*sugarcoat, one word😉
@@lndulging9328 is this honestly a question.... its not rocket science
he doesnt gotta be false or sugarcoat it at all. he just gets on the mic and spits it, whether he likes to admit it.
@@mattbakkker 😂
Imma go ahead and list you 4 classic albums down below. Which ever one you choose you will not be dissapointed.
Dr. Dre - 2001
Eminem - The Eminem Show
Nas - Illmatic
50 Cent - Get Rich Or Die Tryin'
I watched the whole thing and really enjoyed the reaction! Keep up the great work!
The chronic is better than 2001
Good suggestions
Æ AeoN Those albums are the absolute best, what a list
Marcus Nah man 2001 is better
Very good list. I’d like to add DMX - It’s Dark and Hell Is Hot as well.
This CD came out when I was 16 and it's still one of my favorites. I love your reaction to Remember Me, that's my favorite track for sure. Thanks for taking us through the whole thing.
I was always metal influenced by my siblings, and rap influenced by my friends. I was the only one growing up that was listening to Death and Slim. Bein a white kid from a low income and dangerous neighbourhood, Eminem resonates with me on multiple levels. As most metal music can as well. 2 very different things, but also 2 very hand in hand genres. I enjoyed your reaction to this genius classic of an album. And I enjoy seeing you actually react to it and take it for what it is. New subscriber here right now. Bless up 🙏
I respect the hell out of this reaction video. This is what society needs. We need to take that moment and experience what we normally wouldn't. it helps to build understanding, respectful dialogue and also assists with personal development. Great content and all of your thoughts were appreciated.
I watched this whole video and it was very impressive to see someone who doesn't listen to hiphop really take the time to listen. I think you would really enjoy the NAS illmatic album. This was awesome to watch and thanks for talking that time to do this.
Illmatic my fav
Yeah I like this too...
Illmatic is amazing
ICP looked up to Eminem and they thought they were going to open for one of his early show but they ended up not getting to and it pissed them off.
yes!
I know this is an old reaction, but I come back and watch it again and again. Your reaction is super great and hillarius. Just love it!!!
What I’d give to hear The Marshall Mathers LP again for the first time. You’re so lucky to have discovered it. One of the greatest hip hop albums ever made. A masterpiece.
Found it funny that some of the tracks you liked the least are some of the greatest (Criminal, Marshall Mathers etc.)- they’re lyrical genius, true classics, truly 🔥. But you talked over all the bars. 😂🤣Also, without knowing the context, I would imagine they don’t hit the same way. Study up, then maybe give them another listen? It may illuminate the context and give you a greater understanding and perhaps a greater appreciation for what he’s spitting.
I loved it when you paused and shared stories though. Just please listen intently when the track is playing?😉
But your assessment of The Way I Am? YOU WERE DEAD CENTER ACCURATE ON THAT ONE. Happens to be My favorite Eminem track of all time (although my favorite album from him is Relapse- it’s a horrorcore masterpiece). Still as relevant, vicious and venomous as the day it dropped 22 years ago. And it always makes me happy when someone new discovers it for the first time.
Thank you for doing the whole album. New sub. 👍🏼
Ever wonder why you never hear about Eminem's daughter's. Exactly. That's because Eminem was a good Dad!
Josh Hubbard he literally made a song saying how he regrets talking about his daughter as much as he did and would rather have left her out of it
Just proves his point.
Exactly. I've thought that from the beginning. I'm also a father of a daughter. My closest friends don't even know her real name. She's half Japanese. Wise people move in silence..
Exactly, just gave her the opportunity to live a normal life and be treated like anyone else, instead of having to grow up being famous for being Em's daughter and deal with all the stress, reactions etc. (even though that did still happen to a small degree).
I think Josh means you never hear about her doing dumb shit in the news.
Hey mate, I got no problem with you talking like that when you pause and giving us stories and what not, I actually reckon it’s interesting, just getting a different perspective
James C I reckon your reckoning is correct
i reckon your reckon reckoning. reckon.
I reckon your reckon reckoning is reckoning reckon'd, ya reckon?
All of these comments cracked me up haha! But agreed haha
Maybe a little too much tho
Man... I subscribed to you purely for the moments you paused and took time to explain how you connected to this... The Marshal Marhers LP was part of my formative life... Every second of it made sense to my angery young self, but to see you also connect to it from a logical, musical prospective gave a grounding to it all that I totally just kept saying "yes! Exactly!! Holly shit dead on!" while watching this! Thank you.
The song "Stan" is underrated as one of the best ever written. One of the best stories ever told in song. As a child of the 80's with parents of the 60's I've heard "the best" and it's right up there. Just sayin'.
This one of the greatest album of all time not just in the rap but every genre. Eminem’s “the eminem show” is also an absolutely amazing album.
kinda crazy seeing a random guy react to an album that raised me. im gettin chills again like its the first time. right before church one morning, my bro copped it on napster ten days before release, and i just knew i was like entering an era.
beatsNstrings yo, same here man. heard this album along w other’s from Eminem thousand’s, and thousand’s a time’s, and watched this reaction vid not expectin much other than to see some hilariously unexpected reaction’s, but w every song I got the chill’s, and it was like I was hearin every song for the first time again... cept I knew every word to every song. I think seein this man react in such an open minded, and geniune way to everything from instrument’s, and quality of production all the way down to lyric’s, and delivery made this video so nostalgic, and impactful for me. also I usually don’t like the extra commentary that people have in their reaction video’s, but this guy isn’t tryna be someone he’s not in order to gain like’s, and/or subscriber’s, so not only did I not mind his commentary, I actually thought it was really good, and informative. liked how he was able to explain a bit about who he was, and his background by bein able to geniunely relate to certain thing’s in some of the song’s, and segway from those certain part’s into his commentary so smoothly by only talkin about thing’s that related to those part’s... because everything w this man seemed so natural, and never forced I subscribed to his channel. awesome guy w a genuinely awesome reaction video... 💯💯💯.
exactly seeing someone experience it for the first time reminded me of the first time I heard it. Goosebumps.
Everything you've said here is 100% personally relatable.
One of my new favorite channels! Feel like I’m reacting with my own pops 🥲
the chic on track 13 : Drug Ballad is Dina Rae. she got vocals on "Superman" off the Eminem Show too. and she's on another album too, maybe D12's album
In My Opinion. Eminem is the greatest rap lyricist of all time.
DmgOvrTym Yeah how high do you rate Big Pun big l or Rakim?
Harold Pierce rakim is a goat, but EM took it way to a next level, he rhymes almost every word while still telling you a story, it's crazy.
L and Pun didn't have much time, they woulda been as good as EM...well not good as him...but hella good
sZ Argyle! I disagree I think pun would've been better. Even with his short time he proved his greatness. L not so much he could spit but it wasn't a constant thing has some weak songs and a short career hurts him in that regard
I wouldn't call him the greatest lyricist, but he is by far the greatest wordsmith by a mile. The way he combines words, creates flows, emphasizing syllables, bending words to fit in a scheme, while telling a funny, coherent line is downright genius.
James Burgess I can understand that. And I would have to agree.
Stumbled across this 3 years late. I always enjoy seeing someone unaware of the music that shaped my early years. I didn't cut my wrists, I learned not to be a b*tch 😂😂😂 You have an open and inquisitive mind on the subject, many people make quick judgements and stick to their opinions like their voting choices lol awesome video
No, the video's actually been private for a LOOONG time. I'm so glad this classic reaction is finally back
Same
Me too brah
It was thrown to my youtube as well now. It is trending.
@@exoticcar5482 oh
Most genuine reaction I’ve ever seen lol. I had the same reaction to remember me the first time I heard it all those years ago . Subscribed
Hey man, great to hear your impressions of this album so far and you have hit the nail on the head. The female artist is Dido Armstrong and the song sampled is ‘Thank You’ by Dido and yes she has a full backing band too including her own brother Rollo Armstrong! Well worth listening to her too, either ‘No Angel’ where ‘Thank You’ came from or with her 2nd album ‘Life For Rent’ which has the song ‘White Flag’ which is another of her hit tunes! Being sampled by Eminem was a major boost for her Album sales but she was already a major artist over here in the UK! Hope you get to check them out at some stage as she has an amazing voice!
Slim Shady LP, this album, and the Eminem Show is the holy trinity of Em albums. Maybe even albums period
Agree; but i also dont mind encore; but its defo after those 3
You catching Xzibits voice from the 8 mile scene was amazing. Man vs. Machine was a great album.
yeah that was crazy how he made that connection
Robert Byrd right lol
This guy is very observant and he really listens to the music
Defiantly
And "Restless"..i thought he would recognize his voice from pimp my ride lol
Mad respect to Metal Biker Dude for listening to these tracks and giving honest phrase to real genius
Excuse my English... never in my life had I seen a video reaction that lasted so long... yours was the first and I appreciate it, it was spectacular I saw it complete and you don't know how much it entertained me... greetings and a hug was the reaction most genuine I've seen from em
I genuinely had so much fun watching you react to one of my favorite albums. You’re awesome man, subbed! 😁
i gotta agree on this
I second that. This was fun..
Original151 no fucking way😂😂😂😂 I can't believe your here 151 I fuckin love you that's so funny 😂
Hey!!! 151! LESSSGOOOO!
@@mikegreen1495 @
Easily one of hip hops best album
Personally i think its the greatest hiphop album. I put this over illmatic, blueprint ready to die or any other so called classic.
Ikol Russell Check out Mic Righteous - Dream Land. Its a great album
I never thought I would spend 1.45 listening to one of the biggest albums from my teens with a guy I’ve never seen before but I’ve really enjoyed seeing it through fresh eyes.
If you haven’t already please react to D12s album Devils Night. D12 ( the dirty dozen ) were Eminems rap group featuring 5 other Detroit rappers including Bizarre that featured on Amityville. It’s a brilliant album filled with lots of F’d up stuff.
haha, me too.
As soon as he brought up the comparison between Korn i immediately yelled ahhhhh damn Freak on a Leash.....shouts out to MTV back in the early 2000s lol
The last song is D12, which is Eminems band, they are his closest friends. It is rather important to understand D12, if you want to understand Slim Shady.
D12 was at first basically just a pact between them that the first person who gets famous, makes all the others famous too, it was Proofs (Eminems best friend since high school, he died 2006 after being shot in the head) idea to found the group, he also had the idea that all of the 6 members should have 2 personalities, therefore D12.
He had also the idea that they should say things that would be over the limit and just saying whatever they want, but also funny things, like saying to fuck his own mom and having a new brother and son at the same time, it was already Bizarres (the other guy on the song Amityville) style so he inspired the others in the group and fundamentally is responsible for this famous style of Slim Shady, it is also probably why you thought that Bizarre is the counterpart to Eminem, which is actually very true, but Bizarre is still the most crazy one in the group, to name all members and the second personality:
Eminem - Slim Shady
Proof - Derty Harry
Bizarre - Red Head
Kon Artist - Mr Porter
Kuniva - Rondell Beene
Swift - Swifty McVay
I recommend the song "My Band" from them, especially the music video, which is very funny.
His first album "Infinite" has absolutely no Slim Shady influence and therefore are the song themes completely different, because it was before they came up with this idea, so even though the album was incredible good, people were not buying it because it was not unique and too similiar to other rappers at that time, it only sold like 1000 copies, even though the album is incredible, especially in terms of rhymes, but that´s basically it, besides that it was indeed not unique, but the title song "Infinite" is in my personally opinion one of the best songs he ever did.
I think to understand Eminems music you have to understand his story, which is in rap music often the case, because of the heavy focus on the lyrics. If you really want to know more about Eminem, I recommend his book "The Way I Am", which is like his songs very well written, I think most of things I wrote are also written in the book.
I clicked on this video with the intent of skipping around to some of the good songs to hear your opinions. Then I got sucked in cause I forgot how amazing this entire album is.
Glad you enjoyed it too, brother.
All the songs on this album are good in their own merits. Especially if you know what was happening at the time (pretty sure that’s why he didn’t care much for Marshall Mathers, you’d have to know what was going on to get it better)
Bro same here 💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽
This video was in my suggestions & I'm glad it was. I'm gonna subscribe. I love reaction vids! & thank you for what you said @ 33:37.
I loved this era of Em. I grew up on this. I remember having some of his songs from his first 2 albums on burnt CDs. I would record stuff off the radio otherwise. Em was just so cool, unique, wild and skilled! Hilarious too!
Even though Eminem is my favorite artist of all time, seeing u react to this album makes me appreciate him and his greatness even more
You gotta listen to Eminem's
1. The Slim Shady EP
2. The Eminem Show
In fact every single Eminem album is amazing. Most are genius, absolute genius. Period.
encore was a marked decline from all previous full lengths.
Relapse was his best last album
i thought recovery was. i thought 'not afraid' was his best lead single ever. but to be honest, even through his weak albums, his multisyllabics were always crazy as hell he was a prolific writer.
I don’t like his newer albums, I stop listening after that curtain call the hits.
*Encore* was by far his worst album, but it’s still an above-average rap album. It’s like Metallica’s *St. Anger* : it’s a good album until you realize which act released it, at which point you notice the steep decline in quality. Fortunately for both examples, they’ve both had better albums since.
New sub from Scotland. Glad to be on your EM journey with you. It’s good watching someone who’s never known EM 👍🏻
Remember Me is also a favorite of mine! Everyone on that song KILLED! Literally and metaphorically! 😂
I’m kind of jealous that 34 year old me doesn’t get to listen to this for the first time instead of 17 year old me
Jeremy Hodges I can relate, but I’m also lucky that I wasn’t able to check out every classic as they happened. I was able to experience 2Pac’s *All Eyez on Me* and *The Don Killuminatti* for the first time a few months ago, and I was blown away.
Thank you for this reaction. The next album you should do is The Eminem Show
hello Sure Infinite is quite good but it’s not better than the MMLP, Slim Shady LP or The Eminem Show. It’s arguably better than the rest.
what the hell is wrong wit u guys, eminem show is nothing compared to MMLP and Infinite is terrible. Even Em himself hates Infinite. Slim Shady Lp is the only other album with the same caliber as this album
Eminem show is amazing
I agree
He looks like Robert deniro
bro suggestions brought me back to this video again, watched for the 3rd time haha. love it.
Dude just came across this. Love it man. You can appreciate talent. You are very wise I can tell. New subscriber and fan.
Honestly glad you like Remember Me. That is one of the most slept on tracks from this album period!
I was looking to see if anyone said this.
@@startingQB CRAZY
It was the edited version there's 3
Censored version with no swearing
Edited version columbine is edited out
And the full explicit version
Damn straight, I know alot of people hate on it, but it's my second favorite from this album and in my top 10 em songs of all times
You were so spot on when you recognized Xzibit as being the dude battling in the lunch line in 8mile
literally just went to the comments to look for this at 1:19:00
The pair of the Eminem LP and the Marshal Mathers LP is without question the best first two albums any artist has ever produced.
These are the best reactions. Hip hop guys review heavy metal as well and it brings us all together. Music appreciation!
Fuck I clicked on this vid real quick! GOAT album
Right on!
You're very correct my friend xd
Just to give you some background info:
Kim is his ex-wife & baby mother.
Hailie Jade, Alaina (Lainey)& whitney are his daughters.
Debbie is his mother.
Slim Shady, Eminem, Marshall Mathers is himself and his alter ego's.
His dad left him when he was little.
Paul Rosenberg is his manager.
Proof/Deshaun Holton (Doody) is his best friend who died in 2006.
D12 is his group of friends from Detroit who rap together.
You know Dr. Dre and that's all I got for you so far.
Eminem is a genius and the best rapper of all time. Ironic he's a white guy but even every black rapper will say no one comes close to him... unless they are a "Hater." This was his early shit and he's matured sooo much and gotten 10x better as he's gone on. You need to just listen to everything you can by Eminem. He's is the best lyrically to do double and triple entendres. It's INSANE how his mind works. Oh.. fyi.. Eminem grew up in the hood of Detroit across 8 mile road... with 90% blacks. He used to go down to this place called "The shelter" and battle rap.
Eminem = M&M (his initials for Marshall Mathers)
Slim Shady is is "alter ego" according to him. "Will the real Slim Shady please stand up."
Kim is his ex wife.. mother of his daughter Hailey. Debbie is his mother who he couldn't stand growing up. She had Munchausen syndrome.. and His father was a POS who walked out and was never there. Just a few things about Em, my favorite artist of all time. I say "Artist" cause as an individual he's my favorite artist. However I'm a rocker chic at heart.. grew up with my 1st Motley Crüe and Iron Maiden posters on my walls at 13... saw my 1st concert at 20.. Metallica and Guns n Roses front row center 1992 in Arrowhead Stadium. Then Pantera, Korn, White Zombie, Megadeath, Stone Temple Pilots..all live over the years and now at 50 I'm still listening, now playing Volbeat, 5 finger DP, In this Moment, Killswitch engage.. but I LOVE me some Eminem! 😜
5years later and you still are my favorite reaction artist of all time!
Three personalities
1.)Slim shady-crazy(makes you laugh)
2.)Eminem-serious (makes you think)
3.)Marshall Mathers-sober(makes you cry/sad).
You mention how though his last few songs are good on their own, they don't live up to the rest of his other songs. That's the entire problem Em is having with his career atm. He's raised the bar so high, the only person we have to compare to him is his-self
Oyyou I agree man
Oyyou I agree for the most part but I feel like people use that statement as an excuse (not saying u in specific ) for some of his shitty music today . Just because u have classics under ur belt doesn't mean u can deadass drop a garbage album or albums (encore/revival) because all u have to say "I just raised the bar so high in my prime so whatever its okay"
Oyyou Idk WTF he's taking about Criminal is a sick song
Oyyou caterpillar and the chloroseptic remix were amazing so I think he is going in the right direction
So glad i came across this, better late than never lol! I really enjoyed your sincere reactions to the songs & input & thoughts on not only the songs but some of the topics he rapped about! I enjoyed your talking as much as the music! Incredible video brother, love support & respect from MD! God bless u & your loved ones!
Drug ballad one of my favorites of all time. This album was great when it came out and still is. Didn't think I'd spend almost 2 hours wit u but had a great time. Thanks bud
Btw, you're right on about the guy in "Bitch Please II" being the same guy on 8 Mile in the lunch line...His stage name is Xzibit....I'm impressed...He also did that old show on MTV called "Pimp My Ride" lol
lol If you hate Fred Durst Eminem has a whole diss track on Limp Bizkit called "Girls"
This album is a classic. I can't get over how good it was that long ago and how far Em has progressed. He was so good then and now he's levels above. I'm starting to think maybe he is a Martian.
Nah this is his best album
@@uriharel6849 Nah, it's not.
He is already a god!!!
Really enjoy you opening up and occasionally talking about your journey and relation to lyrics as they come up.
Robert de Niro, we recognized you! Respect from France, good video :)
Glad to see such a positive reception to this album. That's the thing about Eminem - he transcends the genre and pulls in people from all walks of life. He's easy to relate to for anyone who's had a rough spot in life. He speaks to issues that everyone else seemed to shy away from, and he took the negative press and turned it into lyrical gold. This might be his best album of all time, when he was lyrical, hard-hitting, solid beats all around, and his trademark comedy thrown in on a couple tracks.
Eminem is one of those superstars who comes along once a generation. Now he has matured, but he has kept his lyrical skills and while not everyone likes his new content, he's using his platform to speak on issues that matter to him. You can't help but respect the fact that he was a high school dropout who took his pain and made a better life for himself and his kids from it.
Exactly. And then people mindlessly requesting some random rap album not realizing this.
Your analysis on this album and self reflection made me subscribe. Solidarity
First time watching. Enjoying this. I used to listen as a teen. Always loved "Remember Me". That beat is hard!!!
Love "Freak on a Leash"!!!
Wrote a music history paper on this album. Arguably one of the most important albums in the history of hip hop and rap music. Without this album, rap music does not make it into the mainstream the way that it has in the last 20 years. Respect to Biggie, Pac,, Jay-Z, Cube, Nas, Busta Rhymes, the list goes on... but this album was a crossover that no one could have anticipated.
Meanwhile, Dre. still reigns king.
Eminem wasn't wrong when he said his music reached suburban white kids. It actually did. It gave them SOME way to rebel.
You're not wrong. Eminem dragged casual and white fans over to rap and hip hop. A whole generation of kids who otherwise wouldn't have listened to rap were suddenly the target market from 2000 onwards. It was a huge feat for a rap album to go more than 1 x Platinum in the 90s - All Eyez on Me went multi-platinum posthumously, The Chronic sold a few million, Biggie went 2 x Platinum, and they were anomalies for Hip Hop. Suddenly this white guy comes in and sells Nsync numbers eventually going Diamond (twice) with legit no-holds rap lifted from black rappers, and the other white and casual fans get into it. It really did open the door for rap to go mainstream when previously it had been second tier - 50 Cent, Kanye, Lil Wayne all go multi platinum in the 00s and its standard for hip hop albums to go at least Platinum, and its been THE main genre for the last 15 years.
Its a shame that society needed a white guy to make this amazing genre seem accessible to the mainstream but oh well.
@@sjn6704 your paper was really fascinating I bet. Unfortunately that trend of Black music entering the mainstream through white artists is nothing new. Look at how spirituals, jazz, blues, rock, and eventually hip hop all began with Black musicians and gained widespread popularity mainly through white artists. This is not to discount the greatness of those Black artists because to this day they remain some of the biggest influences on American culture.
@@kspeed419 reaching suburb white kids was very important
@@IM-hx7jt i wish it was never Considered black music, cause that makes a divide which is totally unnecessary
