    The song def hit home for me. My Mom was diagnosed with lymphoma last October and is refusing treatment. She hasnt always been the best Mom but she always took care of us. I hope if she hears that song or even if she sees this she knows I'm sorry for any pain that I've caused and that I love her no matter what.

      My mom doesnt "let me go on youtube." I'm an adult and I make my own choices. My comment was geared towards the video. Not you. My Mom has cancer now so yes I do feel like my life sucks from time to time. This song made me feel a little bit better about the situation but I forgot humanity has lost every single shred of respect for others and we're raising a bunch of little assholes now.

    Eminem In his prime I'm so blessed and thankful. I got the opportunity to be The right age at the right time. To get the opportunity to Be able to say I was around At the time when 50cent was signed and G-unit it was so sweet like I used to live in Virginia, Suffolk And there was a lot of different types of people. I mean basically when I live in Connecticut and went to middle school. I'm not racist or anything at all. I used to only have like 5 blacks in my school But Virginia was a whole new story. It was like 98% put on a slave. But honestly I used to go through things. You know I've been jumped fights. Whatever music that helped me pump up to go to school thinking about certain things. Or somebody who wants to kick my a** and just feel tough. And I suggest you know. Listen to 50 Cent and Eminem. All the hard songs to just pop myself up on the school bus or walking the hallways high school..I used to play Obie trice cheers album or D12 all of Shady Records-Aftermath Entertainment... I remember when my dad ordered to get Richard died trying CD for me and this is way before I even really liked rap that much. I mean, I was listening to a lot of Eminem and all that back then in middle school, but basically my friend brought over the guess. Who back album that 50 Cent puthough? So I kind of like falls and listen to. I mean, this is kind of at the time that I never really jumped into my own artists and hip hop that I like I mean eminem was always my favorite matter or someone like for her not

The two songs have similar beats and deal with similar topics but overall they sound very different. This song isn't a copy of any other song! But I see point, maybe I just need to lighten up.

    That was one hell of a boring story, great song though. I prefer Em to be rapping in the choruses too but sometimes it works great with a singer, Stan, Love The Way You Lie, Headlights.

    • @TheCamorra2011
      @TheCamorra2011 10 лет назад +3

      ***** Actually I think Monster is awful, it's so cut and paste. The chorus clearly has nothing to do with the verses and Em obviously tried really hard to make it fit (look at the gap between 'weirder than you think' and then the hook) but couldn't manage it. The hook itself is great but the song doesn't flow, it's like Lighters. Headlights...now THAT fits and flows perfectly.

His songs with Ed Sheeran have this problem too. The last 2 albums have been fucking great though with more rapped choruses again
