Still listening to project on a regular, it's a feels like a mixtape, "Fall" is one of Eminem best songs, The Ringer top 5 Eminem verse, no hook no nothing

[@hrishid291]

Yeah... Fall is DOPE!

[@shiskeyoffles]

Thats a good description... Feels like a mixtape

[@chriswildhaber35]

Totally agree .

[@2007zodiac]

That ‘mist’ verse, even to this Day, is staggering, the amount of times I’ve played that to people, and they just Totally miss the end bar! Lol...insane word play..

[@alecvip7562]

@The Russian Hockey Analyst in stepping stone, he says "went from raining cats and dogs in this bitch, to tiny drops little drips, and by the time your reign (rain) is over, you'll hardly be missed (mist)"

[@viskieeisme]

That was a B A R !!!

[@tomnikoleris4338]

The mist verse is perfection, just perfect

[@sdub7045]

​@@alecvip7562 🥵🥵🥵

[@breadboy9714]

The alcoholic scheme in the ringer blew me away, deffiently one of my favorite bars just how he had it all flow together

[@risky7672]

Right.. That scheme was crazzzy.

[@youngbricksyg266]

The best bar on the album imo was the "you gotta be diamond to even climb in the ring" bar, that's one of the hardest lines Em has had lol

[@dalkurd1]

He got so many great bars throughout his career, it’s impossible to say which are the best

[@tritran7565]

not the best, but not many rapper can use that bar lol

[@youngbricksyg266]

@@dalkurd1 I think that one, the M-16 bar, submachine gun line, the broken record line, & the hardly be missed are my top 5 bars

[@michaelmorales1475]

@@dalkurd1 Facts.

[@jovo21]

That's one of the simpler ones tho 🤣

[@tritran7565]

the new "rain-mist" bar for me is that "flower-daisies" bar he have on "Walkthrough".... he make "pushin up daisies" become not just death but creating new life, a metaphor for inspiring new artists, and it's on a song with a new artist got signed to Shady.

[@triple1dot]

Walkthrough is straight heat

[@usingwaytoomanynapkins3274]

I hadn't listened to this album in a while and as you played some of the songs in this video while giving your thoughts. It made me realize that back then when people said Eminem was back, it wasn't just hype. He really was back. You could argue he was never gone, but it definitely felt like he was back how he went off on this.

[@shumblee]

Crazy man! This album is how i found you guys! Been with ya ever since, personally i love Eminem's newer stuff Kamikaze/Music to be murdered by more then his older stuff . Don't get me wrong i love his old stuff. But the guy just keeps evolving.

[@shavinehill4574]

I love his new stuff as well. The bars are just more sharp and mind blowing.

[@Milkers777]

Same!🐐👊🏽🔥🔥🔥🎯

[@notforone]

People who say he isn't good or 'fell off', just haven't been able to adapt to the change. He's at his peak right now with his flows, beat switches, lyrics and schemes.

[@Milkers777]

“Normal” is slept on dat Beat is nasty especially the beat switch it shows Em’s genius of storytelling without sacrificing lyrical integrity it’s masterfully impressive the track is also my Ringtone Em The Goat Of Hip Hop Forever!👊🏽🐐✨🎯💯

[@Will_S9]

Time fucking flewwww. I feel like we have to change how we measure time. When someone says 10 years ago that shit doesn’t feel old anymore. Can’t believe this album is already 3 years old.

[@shilohwallaby617]

5

[@HipHopTheology]

Yep. This album holds up well and it's so dope. Mans was rapping rappin

[@AstaIsAMonster]

My top 5 favorite tracks on the album are 1. *Lucky You ft Joyner* 2. *Venom* 3. *Good Guy ft Jessie* 4. *Greatest* 5. *Not Alike ft Royce & The Ringer* Skips - *Nice Guy & Normal* Favorite Feature *Joyner* My Rating on the album *8.9 or 9/10* (I go back and forth with the score though.) 20:42 *Same! I was really surprised we didn’t get one for the album.*

[@Gintoki_Madao]

I hated eminem for nice guy 😭 I was like noooo, you're ruining it

[@AstaIsAMonster]

@@Gintoki_Madao I get it.😂 But for me it was that I didn’t like the flow of the song from Eminem/Jessie on that one and the beat was kinda meh. BUT I still really like the *“Good Guy”* song they did together though.

[@minime6648]

The bawling bars in alfred theme ,is the greatest verse of all time IMO

[@chriswildhaber35]

That's a great verse, but in my opinion, his greatest verse is off of best friend

[@nissum5179]

Ghost writer/rider bar on book of rhymes

[@mtb0075]

I was just thinking of this album and how good your first reaction was when I saw you just uploaded this. Lets gooo

[@Vikingbrother28]

I love these reviews I feel like the ringer should get more love, that shit's fire

[@chriswildhaber35]

I think the ringer is one oh his best songs of all time.

[@colinharris615]

“Like a wedding band You gotta be diamond to even climb in the ring” is the only bar that fucks with the “hardly be mist/missed” line.

[@totothedoggo]

Doesn’t he mention Ali in the line after that?

[@colinharris615]

@@totothedoggo facts. But the wedding band line stole the song. That and “that’s why I call the motherfuckers Ems 16s/M16s”.

[@sassav6564]

you guys have the best channel on youtube hands down my favorite bar was "and im talking to you but you already know who you are kelly" R kelly..mgk tweeted about em daughters when she was 16

[@alexshort8116]

Let's not forget, man was mid 40's when he dropped this....20 years into the game.

[@swisholas4228]

The best bars to me were the last 30 seconds of the title track when he slows it down and freestyles a bunch of bars back to back, plus the beat switch is nasty af

[@marcinwojcik6622]

Still listening to the album pretty often. Pure fire.

[@Redonus83]

That's missed (mist) bar is still my favorite and my fav reaction, cuz I kid you not, we lost it at the same time when y'all caught it because I missed it the first time too

[@viskieeisme]

Your reactions are so entertaining. The facial expressions.....BRO!!!!

[@Sayin42]

Bro dude is honestly wise beyond his years to understand more than just lyrics but the meaningful parts of Stepping Stones - great “second” reaction guys 👏

[@kazidolezal]

... the youngest Em reactors but definitely THE BEST, top of the game. Your breakdowns are so layered and material to chew on. Great to see Royce get recognition. Em names Royce as the only rapper that can hold his own against him. This was so entertaining and fresh, something other reactors just aren't doing. 🔥🔥🔥

[@Stardust414]

Em's Kamikaze album is *still* in my regular rotation!! Loved this Recap 🤟 VibeVilla = 🐐🐐

[@JRG_REDD]

This video was fire. Would love to see some other em albums go through this

[@MaFd0n]

you bois looking straight up gangstah in this clip.

[@jakesucksatgames9013]

A lot of people say that Kamikaze is one of his worst albums but I can’t see it! This is the album that made me a fan and had me getting into and visiting his older music

[@MandoX1X7]

Damn that time went by fast as fxck. Almost 5 yrs watching your reactions. Love n support de mi gente! Viva México cabrones!

[@isaaclaforce2011]

This was great to watch you guys react too. I am definitely going back to watch the original again.

[@nadiagardencounty9371]

I'm so glad you did this, brilliant content!

[@ME-hr9vu]

Oh yeaaahhh I love this

[@KiloKaze]

Fall and Lucky You are my fav tracks

[@traviszander]

I love the contrast Em's beginning is to Joyner's. It's practically the exact opposite.

[@pjo7064]

My top five.. 1. Fall 2. Greatest 3. Lucky you 4. Not alike 5. Stepping stone

[@annieivanovic7656]

I love your channel! You're the realest reactors

[@vikashakda9730]

That R Kelly bar though

[@par4ugal]

The ringer verse is most FIRE. The mist bar is the deepest. And the Mohammed Ali diamond in the ring bar is the hardest! Also, Good Guy is the best relationship track of all time imo.

[@canstopwillstop7781]

Probably my favourite scheme was the arms pullup scheme from Not Alike. Straight fire

[@hechpee]

Nothing more awesome like catching bars, it’s so important that i rarely watch reaction that only bob heads and act like they know when they do not know

[@pinkladyprime2179]

I still watched yall kamikaze reaction till this day.

[@gustavomcmillian7360]

Here for it!

[@uzi978]

Your initial reaction was one of my favorites... cool to see how you feel three years later. I mostly agree with your fave bars, but Fall needs a little more love.. the music, the hook, his bars.. love the way he flows in that song.. plus the "Sorry I took Forever" line is genius.

[@EasyJayce]

Love this type of recap

[@shumblee]

Coming back to this years later. When i first heard the reaction i 100% agreed with your skip tracks. But damn those songs grew on me haha

[@uzi978]

I give best feature to Joyner too.. think of all the pressure he must have put on himself being on a song with Eminem as a relatively unknown rapper at that time... and he fucking delivered. Royce was dope as hell, but he's been there before. I give Joyner the edge because of the circumstances of what it meant to his career.

[@freeacac1688]

I first met you guys on the kamikaze reaction , been here since then ❤️❤️

[@craigwalker7693]

This entire album is incredible

[@SLIM_MARSHALL87]

The Jesse Reyes woman that was singing on “good guy” track her voice reminds me a little of Macy gray

[@Sparrow-Music]

Top bar for me in the album is probably on "The Greatest" - the whole "Arms" scheme, ending with "this bar is over your head so you better have arms if you're gonna pull up" Absolutely blew me away.

[@emyf9197]

Not alike, fall n the ringer is my top fave of this album. Em went off!

[@barnabassolomon1629]

I screamed when you said greatest

[@michaelmorales1475]

Can't believe it's been 3 Years lol. Time Flies.

[@iceyroo]

Kamikaze is a CLASSIC!

[@sheypandraus2871]

Always appreciate your reactions.

[@byFlights]

Wow how perfect video drop, I was watching the Kamikaze reaction for the 5th 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

[@edwardbreen2319]

The ending bars to lucky you with the whole cowboy scheme

[@traviszander]

Real talk, I've watched / listen to your reaction of this album almost as much as the album itself.

[@mhartincelt4525]

The bar "I wrote everything I ever murdered" then next album was mtbmb 😂😂

[@OsaruKuri]

This was great. Hopefully you do the same for the Music to be Murdered by albums too!

[@ancyp.v.7455]

Okay, it's only fair to stream Kamikaze today ✌️

[@wristcontr0l]

Yo, serious talk, this album might end up being Em's magnum opus. MMLP was legendary, but the refined craft he puts on show on this is just mindblowing.

[@TDreDi2nd]

'Mist' verse is crazy but i didnt pick it up at 1st, its when ull broke it down i was DAMN! My fav bar that hit me like a home run right of the bat was "broken record", the way he words it and its pure facts as he keeps on breaking records like a broken record!🔥🔥🔥

[@Mrs.L.44]

My first time seeing your channel. I am a BTS ARMY and an old Hip Hop fan. I look forward to checking out the rest of your reactions and podcast. Thanks for the reaction!

[@VibeVilla]

‘Preciate you!

[@KazimaSensei]

I really thought you guys were gonna pull out the "..bar is over your head, so you better have arms if you're gonna pull up" from not alike... Sometimes things just work so well it's almost like someone created the words so that someone could figure out how they could be used like this one day lol...

[@ivandembergcorreia5055]

This kind of video is so good, guys

[@Frantz_PA-C]

Always go back to this album. My favorite song is "ringer", the verse at the end of the song is fyer "...my beef is more media than journalist..." WTF

[@quta1443]

What happened to the Revival revisit? Waiting on that. Probably his most slept on album.

[@boooozeed]

Nah, the album overall is bad. it has 2-3 good songs tho'

[@Milkers777]

@@boooozeed disagree that album is a masterpiece also more thought provoking album than Kamikaze album!🙇🏽‍♂️🐐🔥✨💯

[@MCMills02]

Ppl hate on “Revival” bc it’s popular and “cool” to do it. Bet 95% of the haters haven’t even listened to it. There’s ZERO drop off in the lyrics. It’s very bar heavy and the punchlines are amazingly executed. If you haven’t listened to it all the way through and are calling it trash, then you’re a fake and are just following trends like “Simon Says.”

[@AstaIsAMonster]

I wouldn’t say Revival is trash it I give it a 5/10 it’s an ok album liked only 4 songs off that project. Kamikaze for me is 8.9 or 9/10 💪🏽 I go back and forth on the score though.

[@baslanhalaw9404]

The Eminem Show next 👍🏻👍🏻

[@IK7.]

Ringers too cold 🥶

[@khornebloodgod2137]

This was great. Agree with alot of what you both said.

[@ogdemo]

It's wild how many crazy bars were in Not Alike.. The fact that there were so many that you guys left out the "Pull Up" bar is nuts. And I accidentally just said "Pull Up Bar".. Dammit, Em!

[@sandipanroy3106]

Good stuff!

[@hailiemine7453]

Drop the donda review pls. Can't wait no more 😭

[@jadsaliba3181]

This is a dope video!

[@kadertraore3404]

You guys are true em fans. You might need to do the same for revival. That album is slept on and has incredible moments. His schemes are ridiculous

[@highbee6057]

On not alike y'all didn't talk about the "bar is over your head so you better have arms if you're gonna pull up"

[@mrwick7961]

the freestyle at the end of kamikaze is crazy too

[@loveinlatin]

I love this album

[@CarlosRivera-jq8di]

1 dislike? Lord Jamal…

[@negative4and212]

This could be stretched, but it's possible the last line in Lucky You is a bar everyone misses. "Back on that bull like the cowboy(s)" could be a double/triple depending in when the verse was written. The obvious double with bull and cowboy, but also that the 2015-2016 NFL season the Dallas Cowboys went 4-12, and the 2016-2017 season they went 13-3. At least cool to think about

[@shashanksingh911]

mic bar was dope as hell still 🥰

[@danielgovender5263]

Do this with all the em albums

[@davebozarth8633]

Good recap!

[@SuperHns]

Also what happens when there is MIST< people no longer see you, so you will vaporize as MIST< plus people dont see you anymore. EM is wild.

[@ahmed10w30]

I love you guys

[@notforone]

@prince Jay Z has noted the same thing. Em's cadence becomes an instrument itself, almost like percussion.

[@jathanbarreto]

One of my favorite bars and schemes from this album is on Not Alike 2:30 - 2:43

[@theeverythingchannel9478]

I’m suprisedyall ain’t put the ending of kamikaze in this “you got some views, but your still below me, mine are higher so when you compare our views you get overlooked” also “line up the rappers,take my pic/ pick like a photoshoot” 🔥🔥

[@planetorque]

If you just went through a break up, normal would probably be your favourite and on repeat 😏

[@yannickwillems1991]

These are the kind kids that i can listen to. The know rap when they see one 🤙

[@danielgovender5263]

I agree , NOT ALIKE is my Favorite aswell

[@stephenbohan]

“ and you got juice little youngin you buggin “ line on not alike is a double cause of the kids juice drink called bug juice.

[@ExZeLEnvY]

Good luck doing that with MTBMB, video will be an hour long lol

[@chriswildhaber35]

Right haha. The whole album doubles, triples, quad's, cadence's, wordplay, flow's and the best part all paying homage and everybody else that's on any of the tracks pure 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥.

[@kmuv2693]

Can't for MTBMB Recap

[@farooqyousaf9516]

Loved the video. You need to do more of these. I'd even say there is no harm in revisiting old classic albums like Illmatic, Doggystyle, MMLP, Eminem Show, and songs like Gangster's Paradise, Renegade, Hit Em Up, Criminal, Kill You, Ether, Dead Wrong, Hate me Now etc. Keep up the great work guys.

[@FiryaFYI]

Greatest is slept on, i swear

[@bmpetrov]

The Greatest have one of the best bars its just too complex. that "My basal ganglia's an A to the K" shit was crazy

[@aryankashyap4349]

We waiting for your Donda reaction boys

[@cyanmaze]

The time between Kamikaze and MTBMB is shorter than MTBMB to now. Let that sink in

[@rousosktistakis1975]

07:19 also......If a person bit a coin and verified that the bite mark was printed in the currency, this meant that the money was real (or soft enough to be gold) Testing in the Old Days
