It's HIS 51st birthday today. Nice move R&RHOF

[@smiley0987]

That smile from LL was so cute.

[@senmetwo42]

LL stood up and didn't sit back down. Even tho so many were sitting but he was too proud of the moment to sit.

[@michaelbull1566]

That made LL’s whole night, you could tell

[@brandonvinall]

He's trying so hard to hide his tears. So proud of my favorite rapper!

[@betamax1091]

Em's shout out to his "teachers" was incredibly respectful and a nice reminder for hip hop fans from around the world to always remember the "classics."

[@JKevz1]

Bro put himself down telling everyone of his drug addiction & that he was a highschool dropout. Then he proceeds to give the entire hiphop rap genre artists their flowers each. 🔥 *RESPECT*

[@mohdsheflee]

cemented his name eternally as a rap god...!

[@johnstjohn1987]

Eminem was given a Chance by Dre and the dude absolutely killed it.

[@renatofranco6441]

A true hip hop lover! Teacher, Legend, the fucking Goat! 🐐🥂

[@AF-Twice]

That was an incredible display of homage. Who else does that?.. Salute to Eminem, one of the illest ever.

[@hollyroxy25]

Eminem used his ENTIRE speech to show love to other rappers he feels haven’t gotten their flowers, that’s love & respect unlike anyone else I’ve ever seen. Melle Mel wtf is wrong with you dude?! This man has shown love to you SEVERAL times but you just can’t let go of that racism in your heart, it’s sad af 🤦🏻‍♀️

[@illgates2940]

Exactly! That old mindset.

[@Kai_soze]

He salty a white dude does it better than he does. Hip hop has no color.

[@illgates2940]

@@Kai_soze He even gave Melly Mel hatin ass his props.

[@FloSick808]

Damn i straight up teared up hearing him pay homage and respect to the ones that don’t get their shine from the mainstream. He straight up mentioned underground legends. It’s sad how the audience have no cheers for some of names he mentioned. Thanks Em for giving those Hip Hop MC’s their paid due respects for this culture. 🤙🏾✊🏾

[@bagusindrahariadi1760]

Well, in every school, even if you liked it, there always be at least one teacher that you hated, but he/she still taught you stuff.

[@toityb]

Humility is beautiful! Love him!!!!!!!!! Again, congratulations to him and thanking him for all he's given us!

Bro just named half my playlist

[@EduardoDuran-s8i]

Bro how big is your playlist man because he went in for a minute it was dope watching him shout out everyone showing love to everyone

[@haveidonethisbefore]

press x to doubt

[@christopherdoroba8724]

Usually em doesn't care about shit as far as awards go but you can tell this meant something to him. He was trying to keep it together this whole speech

[@jeffbrown8117]

He even thanked people he’s dissed lol. Legend.

[@iLLBiLLsRoastBeats]

Ikr I was kinda surprised when I heard dj jazzy Jeff and the fresh prince

[@aberizal8022]

he even thanked melle mel and that dude is consistently hating on him.

[@syrexobtial-yr5kv]

Including Melle Mel

[@KevinDrop-in7iy]

Nah...not me. Although he dissed Will, those brotha's are hip-hop all the way! And Em knows this. Will & Jeff were and still are a DJ and an MC. That's what hip-hop is and that's Jazzy Jeff & Fresh Prince regardless of what people think about Will's PG rhymes. The brotha was just as good of a story teller as the other greats just had a different lane. Let's please stop frontin' like Will couldn't spit!

[@InspiredAD]

They are did a part of making him more relevant and big but just return diss track instead of making album.... High IQ recognize that and mentioned it and again on purpose and he did what he wanted.... In RAP world this was a news and he's been there with those diss tracks non stop one time period.... During the time artists who's making good music stay in shadow just bcz of this move.... U must give a fkng credit to em for that.... I bet you don't think in this direction? Or u did?

[@dcocorose]

Such an honor to be accepted into the rock ‘n’ roll Hall of Fame Eminem in return gave everyone credit for his success truly a noble man. Thank you for sharing.💐

[@yziemmanuelle6916]

Em is a real student of this hip-hop you don’t gotta like him but you gotta respect him legends inspire legends

[@annalynpena0806]

Give him another award just for this wonderful speech!! Loveyah EM

[@NiGHTSaturn]

The major public may not know how Marshall is in real life, but this glimpse is enough to realize how humble he is. He never forgot where he came from, and was always, always, grateful.

[@pillcosby3264]

Not only this a great speech but it shows how much he was a fan of the genre and he shouted out all thw mcs and he even shined light on all the unsung legends.

[@Mikey-ro1wh]

How can ANYONE dislike this man!!! He is HIP-HOP

[@amaterasu9211]

you can say all you want that Eminem is a guest in the house of hip hop, yes, he's a guest in the house of hip hop, but he pays his bills in that house, but he doesn't live there for free!!! he has proven himself enough throughout his career to show the world that he deserves his place among the big names in that house of hip hop!!!

[@andreabrooks1581]

Faaaaaaaaaaacts!!!!!!!!!

[@RedceLL1978]

I just don't see him as a guest, an anomaly yeah, but his home is within the genre and it welcomes him like a son.

[@cynthx]

why do you see him as a guest?

[@mimikeofficial86]

hes not a fuckin guest in the house of hip hop. Quit that rhetoric

[@KizWhalifa.]

Eminem owns the house lmao

Eminem is always been humble and he definitely had to pay homage to the teachers of his craft Eminem did it right Much respect for honoring your heroes , your teachers. I have a great respect for Eminem, even though I don’t listen to his music much, but when I do listen to his lyrical talent, just blows my mind when I hear him rap , not too many rappers possesses his talent.
