Couple Reacts to Eminem - Soldier (Breakdown)

[@robensonbadette6102]

The flow, the anger, the lyrics everything is perfection, it's like he is punching holes on a wall with that agressive cadence

[@unclepitch]

Im 40, so I was in high school during Em's prime. I had a friend who said he didn't like this song, and I gave him the "wtf" face. We aren't friends anymore. Soldier goes so fuckin hard. Timeless music

The Eminem show was hands-down, one of the best albums ever created. When that came out, I remember every single person at the gym that I knew had that on repeat.

Eminem produced this beat. He produced a lot of 50 beats.

[@Mharve]

He produced the beats to his most popular songs . The way I am , not afraid , soldier , wicked ways most of them . I really don't know why dre gets all the credit

[@WoTMike1989]

@@Mharve He gets the credit because EP is still a big role and he was responsible for the overall direction and sound of a most of his classic albums. He also taught him how to produce along with the Bass brothers (a bit). I also love Relapse personally and Dre produced every single song. But yeah, Em deserves more credit as a producer.

This album is amazing! The way he uses his angry voice inflection is so good. New Em is amazing. Old Em is amazing. EM IS AMAZING!!!

[@3rteenbreed]

One of the best Eminem tracks ever in my opinion... Beat wise and lyric wise... EMINEM RULEZ!!!!! 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

[@gasgaming7491]

Em made the beat, mixed, and produced the record. 100% his own creation

Another Eminem song that gives me chills every time. But he has so many of them.

Eminem in the car listening to eminem is crazy

[@ghost1012]

I thought it was Marshall Mathers listening to eminem while being slim shady lol

[@millasboo]

@@ghost1012it is it’s marshal trying to pull the slim back

[@andrewsears16]

The Eminem Show was my musical bible growing up. The entire album was a direct result of him studying Tupac and is when he was at his highest level of mastery of what he learned studying Tupac's delivery

[@marshmellow-pq9zr]

I absolutely love his early work. But I think as far as mastery, he is better now than he ever was. He doesn't have the anger he had back then.

[@andrewsears16]

@@marshmellow-pq9zr I don't mean mastery in the sense that you do because I agree with your statement. What I mean is mastery of what he learned from studying Tupac's delivery. To give a better idea of what that means to me...I've always described Tupac's delivery as "dripping with emotion" Tupac isn't great because of his technical rhyme schemes or over the top wordplay...it was his delivery and over all musicality. The Eminem Show was the era in which Eminem had the highest mastery of that specific tupac-esque delivery and THAT is what people describe as "old em". At least that's my opinionated conclusion from the data my perspective has provided. Always open to counter arguments and thoughts from different perspectives!

[@andrewsears16]

@@marshmellow-pq9zr I would like to add that I do feel like he's been tapping into to it more and more again and that his overdose (I think) may have caused some sort of something that made it hard for him to connect to that level of musicality and soul filled vibe he displayed on this album

[@marshmellow-pq9zr]

@@andrewsears16 Yeah I know what you mean. I'm not arguing that statement. Just the general consensus is most people crap on him after this album. Which I don't understand. I love all his albums always have. To me he is the GOAT because he can do it all at the highest level or above. Delivery, Flows, Passion, Storytelling, Rhyme schemes, Cadence, Speed, Clarity, the list can go on and on. The fact that so much of his life relates to mine only make me feel it more.

[@jessicarichter6436]

⁠​⁠@@andrewsears16why do you think this flow is pacs & not like Ems rock bottom SSLP or Stan, the way I am, drug ballad MMLP before the Eminem show? Ems passion & conviction in his voice is why I fell in love with his music besides the fact he’s an insanely talented lyricist. It’s like I can feel his pain in my own veins. He’s had it even before SSEP if you rewatch his old battle rap footage so its not pacs delivery but I can see why your making that connection as pac & em are both from the 90s & 2 of the most known rappers beloved for the intensity of their unique voices. Their the only 2 to make me cry from rap songs cos of the raw emotion in how they spit, ems had it in so many songs since TES too like lose yourself, castle, arose, believe, I need a dr, medicine man, mockingbird, when I’m gone. Busta & DMX are also known for the energy & intensity in their voices not bars but I wouldn’t say Em & pac are using bustas or Dmx’s delivery. Their all inspired by each other as artists tho so it’s no harm either way don’t want you to think I’m arguing just discussing what you said.

[@AnthonyfromtheD]

The Beat and Em being aggressive on it is fire!

[@los1wochos]

When you hear good, lyric heavy songs like this again after some time has passed you appreciate and understand it more.

“About 50 years old.” Hands down the funniest shit I’ve heard in a while. I believe he was 28 or 29 when the Eminem show came out. In “Square dance” he says “I’m 28, they’ll take you before they take me.”

You can hear the anger in his voice in this. For all the people who talk shit about Em, back in the day he was crazy as hell and carried a gun with him everywhere even on stage during concerts.
