The scent of a placenta rhyme was in relation to Tupac's song "Brenda's Got A Baby". Also, the Fee-fi-fo-fum was from the fairytale Jack and the Bean Stalk and when he said sit down beside her like a spider was in reference to the Little Miss Muffet nursery rhyme. Em was definitely in his bag when it came to rhyme schemes and cadence on this song. You guys did nice to notice that.

Hey Brandon, love how far you’ve come with these reactions to Em. Real one. I’m sure somebody mentioned it but just to let you all know, Son of Sam was a serial killer in NYC. Happy belated man.

[@rebeccahopkins9522]

This song and the whole album it comes from, Relapse, is pure horrocore brilliance. The whole album plays like the greatest of horror films, where Eminem stars as an insane, blood and murder hungry, truly evil, even possessed, serial killer in the same vein as characters such as Norman Bates, Buffalo Bill, Hannibal Lector, Jason Voorhees, and even Leatherface; and real life serial killers like Ted Bundy, Son of Sam, and Ed Gein. It’s a certain horror aesthetic, pushed to the very limits of the extremely dark, horrific, and even scary, more extreme than he ever went before or since, an aesthetic that many of his more casual listeners don’t like or appreciate; even a lot of fans panned this album when it came out. When actually it’s perhaps his most well conceived and most concise, authentically artistic, perfectly executed work of genius that he’s ever made. Or likely ever will make. It was the furthest extreme he’s ever gone, and it goes all the way. He even uses different accents at times, like embodying different characters. And speaking flow wise, lyrically and storytelling wise it’s an immaculate and brilliant piece of work. And the rhyme schemes?? INCREDIBLE. It’s nearly all Shady, no Eminem…and he conceives Shady in this album not as a rap alter ego…but as an actual demon, working through him, that used to only come out in glimpses, but here, he’s taken over completely. Also Dre produced the entire album and made nearly all the beats. And it’s utter perfection. The whole album truly is a work of genius, a brilliant horror film in an album, who’s songs can’t even fully be appreciated unless it’s been listened to from beginning to end. When this album first came out in the late 2000’s, it was poorly received, and wholly misunderstood. It’s only in the last half a decade that it’s been recognized for the work of true artistic genius that it actually is. Eminem isn’t even my favorite rapper. But Relapse has always been my favorite Eminem album, and one of my favorite albums all time. And likely always will be. EDIT: PLEASE DO THE WHOLE ALBUM?? 🙏

Alot of people didnt understand when eminem ran out of rhyme schemes that he wanted, around 2009 he started using accents and came with a whole new catalog and it was crazy. The accent helps him twist words to rhyme differently and its genius. unbelievable

[@heathercarter5245]

I gotta say I LOVE yall watching videos from MY generation...... I love your reaction and it makes it so much better than it was when it was new:)

[@rebellibrarian]

This album is hard, he puts it down after he got sober, but it still has some of his undeniable genius. i think his storytelling is brilliant in "3AM" ... but not sure if you've done that. I'll go look at your Eminem playlist & see what's missing. Really enjoying your reactions. edit to add... Request... please create artist playlists of your videos - Eminem would be a great place to start. 😉

[@Dabberdans]

Albums a masterpiece

[@radezzientertainment501]

yall reactions gettin better and better haha much love

[@dipsonpradhan709]

I was patiently waiting for you guys But still waiting for "underground"

[@esaiasjones1635]

No cap…This reaction is legendary

[@curtisshanahan7538]

He starts the song rapping about stalking Brenda from the song "Brenda's Got a Baby" by 2pac. Em is a genius and his twisted shit during this era has never been matched.

[@carloang12]

You make me subscribe on this. Em consider this one of his flop albums but the schemes, bars, metaphors and other rap elements are out of the league. Please play this shit at my funeral lets go

[@EastsideZach_]

This was one of Em best flows

[@stevenaleman7454]

We enjoy your reactions every time! Keep them rolling..! If you hadn't reacted to Em's song, "Cinderella Man", please do... another fire rap...🔥🤗✌️

[@mcultras]

Y’all gotta listen to On Fire. You’ll be screaming from those bars and double entendres that go on and on.

[@juanreyes1017]

"i used to date this girl that like serial killer documentaries and stuff like that.... 14:23 bro in the back looked at him like WTF!!!! hahahahahahahaha

[@YoMojoBro]

Great reactions guys, yall should check out “Music Box” another crazy song with disturbing lyrics (in a good way). also, “Fine Line” is ridiculous as well in terms of rhyme schemes, bars and flow.

[@zachp5701]

Music Box is brilliant. An entire horror film in 4mins!! ✌🏼

[@anurushkap3542]

Horrorcore at it's finest guys! The picture he paints whilst rhyming is insane...Relapse is amazing 🔥

[@candicewilhelm5390]

Relapse album mostly horror core with insane content/flows…got “bad” reviews/reception in 2009 now it’s a cult classic. Great album

[@575supernatural]

I love love love this song. Holding my breath hoping you love it

[@TheGreenDevil21]

When you realise the girl he’s speaking abouts name is Brenda and he mentioned the placenta and that 2pac had a song called Brenda had a baby! 🤯

[@mr.burlbattle2233]

I am sure you'll enjoy "Medicine Ball, I'm Back and Rain Man" by Eminem the lyric videos

[@cindyw262]

Hahahah. This was super entertaining. I chuckled so much cause I knew exactly what y'all were getting into. I have always said, Em needs to give us a horror movie cause it would be whack 🤣 Nice catch on the insane rhyme schemes. They're actually ridiculous when you see the lyric vids where they highlight everything that rhymes 🤯🤯 Pure genius this man is. Thanks for another great reaction 💙

[@Singhpala]

If you guys love rhyme schemes and story telling of this song then you should definitely react to “ Underground “ by Eminem next.

[@pedrojoao11]

I am extremely happy to see these young people travel through Eminem's discography and be amazed by this man's talent and vibrate like we vibrated in the 2000s. ❤

[@cowboysspurs96]

Love y'all's Eminem reactions they are so fire glad I found u guys 🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@TheRealGothicBarbie]

When you realize the bass is in the rhythm of a human heart beat

[@statbran1]

Relapse was a horrorcore album that Em got inspired to make from all the horror movies and research he was getting into at the time, so he presented a very dark album and tried to relate to real psychopathic serial killers with his perspective in the lyrics

[@dbuck2862]

RELAPSE ALBUM GENRE is called ACID RAP/DEVIL RAP .. It is a rock horror rap genre been around in Detroit since late 80's - started by ESHAM/ICP/ NATAS, KING GORDY, BIZZARE.. and a few other MC's.

[@SuperMessi88]

Insane Clown Posse 😈🤡

[@dragonjegg82]

These songs are shock value, there's a lot of them, but its Em showcasing his creativity as a horror fan. (Check 3am) No he isn't out doing the shit lol, but he's showcasing cadence, schemes, Rhymes and themes, and bending words on top of creativity. Truthfully he put a lot of that stuff out while on his drug binge. It's interesting to see his progression

[@Poetpathetic86]

Def love 3am

[@infiniteeconomist]

Watching the younger gen try to figure out Eminem's rhyme scheme's is awesome! You guys are still at level one. It has taken me since the 90s to figure his songs out. I'll still listen to something of his I heard 1000+ times and figure out something new. Fe Fi Fo Fum (Jack and the bean stock) the giant can smell the blood of an englishman when he is hiding, so he is the giant smelling out his pray. His pray is a pregnant woman. He sniffs her out in central park in the dark its winter in December (hard to smell in the cold). Every little bit has hidden meaning. Its never just there because it rhymes. This game has levels and hi is so far past everyone. Some people cant figure his shit out so they dismiss him as wack.

[@stevenflores8999]

A song from Em you will love is from the 8-mile track called run rabbit run.... straight savage. 💯

[@mateuszgraczyk9249]

it's not run rabbit run it's just rabbit run

[@wordsmith5792]

Eminem Despicable freestyle next 100%

[@AnthonyfromtheD]

Classic song!

[@deannakelley9109]

It's a symphony, it's an opera, it's a story, it's a rap, it's a song, it's full of bars, and you feel them and you have a theatrical experience in your head. That's why it's so good. 🐐 Great video! 😎

[@aznwimr]

Eminem's Horrorcore Rap multi syllables too condensed🔥🔥

[@MXamoea]

I’m Mexican American and can’t speak a lick of Spanish bro!,, hahaha it is what it is I guess lol,love y’all’s breakdowns man definitely one of the top on the Tube yo!!!! One Love from The Bay Area, Northern Cali!

[@rubengonzales6897]

React to "Bad Guy" and "Drop the World" with Lil Wayne. Love your reactions

[@iLLWiLL510]

Em's a Libra, sorry bro 😅

[@Heater820]

Do speedom next. Tech n9ne and Eminem

[@lukejones7864]

Love these guys reactions, reminds me when I first listened, I’m 38.. Been around from when EM started ❤

[@andrethree000]

You guys have an awesome channel. You guys actually catch a lot of bars, a lot more than other channels and you pay mad respect to em and those other old heads, much love
