The way Em intertwines 5 multi syllable internal & external rhyme schemes on this track without sacrificing the story is a master class in technical lyrism

[@timrobinson6116]

People ALWAYS miss that about his verse!!

[@onlyjoinedtotroll]

​​@@timrobinson6116 didn't even know that was a fkn thing! Just solidifies Em's GOATness

[@Bahthias]

What in the rhyme scheme going in here??

[@brandomathews]

Plus he did it over his own beat... 💯

[@coldcorner9902]

fucking syllables

[@OldRPGGamer]

The reason people say Em washed Jay is because EMS verse was laid years before Jay was sent the track, it was originally an Em and Royce track and Royce agreed to have his verse taken off the track.

[@lontapan6247]

what ever you say em is a lyrically insane everytime he rhyme let them collab again and you will know...hahaha

[@jeffr9234]

Jay z was telling about being a renegade in the streets and em was telling about being a renegade with him music

[@sergioramirez9193]

This definitely one of my fav jay z verses but Eminem is just too complex and amazing with his delivery he definitely killed him on this

[@jdotso23]

This song (along w/ Soldier & Till I Collapse) is what I show to Em haters bc it’s undeniable - even the biggest Em hater can feel the shift in the song everytime Em hops on it - literally w/ just the hook itself when Em is on it as opposed to Jay you feel the energy shift … and Jay did his thing on this track no shade, but as soon as Em hops on, it’s like goosebumps

[@coltenvoland950]

Since I’m in a position talk to these kids and they listen. I ain’t no politician, “but I’ll kick it with EM in a minute”. Is crazy cause he sets up for the next verse where he saying to put yourself in the kids point of view.

[@badbrains22]

Em was the only feature on the entire Blueprint album. And that album is classic af.

[@darkanchordesigns5906]

Short verse but Ems verse on Warriors PT2 is one of my favs.

[@jdl619]

This is a great song people say em killed Jay on this but i think both of them just did their own thing to push the message of the song. The message makes it classic & probably a song before it's time if you think about it now.

[@jvnbrk]

This song imo is what earned Em the true respect from other rappers..washing JayZ on hiw own shit..yeah not everyone was doing that back then lol. And that takes nothing away from Jay Em is just that good. I personally think people underrate JayZ..his style never changed no but he had wordplay like a motherfucker..he just casually slides the bars in there

[@AandarksHobbies]

Dude, when you said Jay Z was drunken master… that was the most perfect way I’ve ever heard to explain his style.

[@666blackcarbon9]

Nah, that’s ODB’s style

[@Daryl6DLR]

'Jay-Z don't get his props' come on man, don't be silly - i enjoy your reactions but that is outrageous

[@FlawdTV]

He doesn’t I know more people that hate Jay Z than people that like him.

[@gingsta9922]

I have listened to Eminem every day of my life since the 00s - I'm 32 now, I have all his CDs, singles the lot... His music has gotten me through everything I've been through... People say he fell off - Nah, he just doesn't have the rage anymore but the passion is there... His lyrics just hit differently.

[@captaingunt4208]

FACTS.

[@syyneater]

People seem to forget that perspectives, values, beliefs, emotions, and everything else, changes as we grow older. It kinda makes me think some of the people that bitch about how he’s changed can’t understand that he grew as an artist and father, because those people either didn’t grow, or didn’t grow enough. So they want their favorite artist to be like they used to be, because they can understand anything else.

[@Jesse.George]

me too

[@DAZI1988]

facts bro

[@KidofAk]

What about his unreleased/features? I think I was able to listen to him because almost each album was similar to what I went through. Some songs I didn't listen to but now I really understand the song

[@cbar6537]

"a verse like this can only happen once, it's like the world is in perfect harmony"

[@d.g91]

I never heard someone say shit like that, it just made me see the verse in a whole different way

[@Plagius8]

The era ppl and planets were in perfect alignment.

[@DGRocco]

This song is Eminem’s originally. He wrote it (the beat too) for himself and Royce originally. Royce couldn’t be on the track for some reason, and Em gave it to Jay. Jay had it for years - with Em’s verses already written - before he put it on The Blueprint. So Renegade is really Em’s track. It’s amazing tho!

[@91GT347]

The version with Royce is on here too.

[@charg1nmalaz0r51]

Nah him and royce had the song made but J wanted a verse and em asked royce which of the two songs they had planned he would rather feature on with him and he gave renegade to J

Its called a mush up when thry mix rappers songs together.

[@keithb857]

The fact Jay Had it for years and only had mid verses is sad

[@joshnobles23]

Shit went hard AF back in the day and STILL somehow went underrated. Two poetic artists painting pictures with words. Brilliance.

[@aweinbrom]

I was at a concert in NY (i think around 2002) where Em and 50 were headlining. Eminem was on stage and this song started up. Out of nowhere, Jigga walked on stage and they did the whole song together. The crowd was going crazy, prob one of the best concert moments I have experienced.

[@Cuddyface]

Dammmm! I wish!!!!

[@rabbitshady499]

I think the debate of who won between the two kinda hurt this song ..because it's one of the best hip hop songs ever in my eyes.

[@MrMMAFanatic]

If the lyrical mastery and poeticism wasn’t enough, Em also produced this track. It’s difficult to put into words how unbelievably talented Em is.

[@joerogers7129]

poeticism is everything

[@benayu2577]

poeticism for the win

[@chandureddy3926]

The fact that Eminem’s verse was made long ago and JayZ wrote after listening to that shows how much of a genius em is!

[@ghost-writer007]

It was a bad meets evil song em and royce they took royce's verse and replaced it with jayz

[@mvilla235]

Em made the beat

[@riothero313]

[@Jiren488]

Jay verses are solid, but Em is from another world. cadence, wordplay, storytelling craaaazy!

[@bowillieman]

It feels like Jay Z has to channel the music and words through him whereas with Em it feels like it's flowing from within him. Two different styles of art being done at a high level.

[@lea88pu]

😅 Only thing is the Eminem verses were recorded waaay before with Royce..So Jay had bunch of time to think what he is going to lay on the track. I hope you'll react to the Em & Royce version too ❤

This was originally an Eminem and Royce track Em gave it to Jay and Jay added his verse

Correct and original em and Royce renegade beat is slightly different , you can tell that he tweaked it a bit

[@coreyrees840]

@@EvgeniyYakushev-m2uyeah they re-recorded it and cleaned it up obviously

[@squiggles1239]

The "Jigga j-jigga" part is him filling in the original lyrics where he referred to Royce as "The king of Detroit" so he had to change it

[@bpk82]

Em produced the beat too 🔥

[@nicolasmontiel8075]

I appreciate your honesty. Jay Z constructed a verse that a lot of us in the minority needed to listen to. Eminem went WILD, and he had the verse recorded before hand. This song is legendary. With both of the best MC's we got left.

[@stevieb274]

Just remember guys that this song was made already, and em took Royce off the song, and gave it to Jay-z with Eminem already on it. Beat change just a little bit

[@billypsc7638]

It's not a filler bar he is saying Jigga ja Jigga as in jayz nickname

[@sirsneedster]

The way Em bounces rhymes with “…but I’m debated disputed hated…” always gets me. So smooth.

[@DroxKnows]

🔥🔥🔥 reaction. I've heard this song many times before but y'all's reaction and breakdown made it feel like I was hearing the song for the first time all over again.

[@ZenoGoreng]

Em is my favourite, but Jay doesn’t get enough credit for his storytelling because people feel Em killed him on this song. To me they both brought their A-game and created perfect verses in their own way.

[@TheLaw_v]

I don't think Jay-Z gets alot of hate or not enough respect. I think it's just because his fans put him at a level he's just not at. He can be one of the best and still not in the top 10. Rap has just been around that long and been that deep. Like if you release this now it's top 2.

[@IvIidnight]

Everybody always points to Best Friend as Em's best verse, but this has gotta be right there.

[@johnsolly5838]

I think only the newer Gen Z Eminem fans think Best friend is his best verse. This is one of the most well structured verses in the history of rap

[@karlmurphy2707]

It's funny seeing people hear Renegade for the first time 20 years later like it's new lol

[@emmanuelvelazquez3197]

Renegade imo is one of the greatest rap songs of all time because Jay and Em spoke to millennials who at the time were growing up in broken homes and difficult environments. From single mothers, divorce, slang’n, abuse, political and media propaganda. One of the greatest songs ever made

[@stevemongillo9858]

Can't believe you never heard this. A classic. Miss real hip hop

saying jayz's sound is original is a joke he stole biggies style, 99 problems isnt even an original chorus

[@Regreg347]

Rap has rhymes but its not JUST about rhymes. The things Jay are talking about in the song are more relevant, that's what makes his verse special.

[@ghost1012]

@wonderful8469 being hated/doubted and being broke are both relevant my dude. Sorry

[@Regreg347]

@@ghost1012 I agree my friend but the way both wrote their verses are different. With Em altho his verse is spectacular lyrically it's still about him, its about the underdog who was dissing everyone and as a result was being hated on by everyone for being extremely controversial. With Jayz he is not just talking about himself he is talking about every person (not just black) who is from a marginalised community or have had a hard life, hell some of the lines in his lyrics apply to Eminem too. That's why it's more relevant, it touches more hearts, it is more relatable. But it is not as great lyrically. That's why I think it's a tie.

[@joeymims5852]

Not sure what song you listening too. Maybe just cause this dude hosting this channel, who Ive never watched before, is obviously like a Jay Z stan, non stop stopping and saying how unreal he raps. IMO Jay Z is so overrated.. On the other hand, Em destroyed him on this, and its become almost a known fact, not even an opinion at this point!

[@joerogers7129]

​@joeymims5852 It is an opinion anybody who grows up like Jay-Z relates to his verse much more.

[@Thereignrian]

“He has different styles” yeah I agree. He has Biggies style stole, Big L style stole, Nas style stole, Rakim style stole, big daddy Kane style stole, fat Joe style stole, slick Rick style stole,and about 7 other rappers. Jay z could rap but he bites SO much And Em washed him with an old verse and people debating talking about “bro if you from New York you know jay z captured the spirit of the city perfect” we all ain’t from He does get a lot of criticism (not s dmuch as Em) and he’s nice when he wants to be but can’t let extreme level of biting slice

[@BiblicalAuthority1611]

I don't believe JAy-Z was good at all. He got crushed by a no doubt way better rapper. His type of rap reminds me of ordinary people trying to sound good but off rythem. His lyrics have a hard time connecting with this flow correctly.

[@MiamiRealEstateAgent]

Grew up on this. Been listening to it since 2002; shortly after it came out. And I'm only 26 today. So this song has been a staple in my appreciation for Em and Jay.

[@chaddon7685]

See... this song and this review shows why I like Em more than Jay. Both use sophisticated rhyme schemes, but Em FLOWS. Jay uses this broken flow to his rap, and while he definitely pulls it off, it sounds less good to me. Sounds less musical.

[@corylyonsmusic]

When you were a teenager / young 20s and this is coming out and you're living in that time it was such a different experience. It's so hard to explain the whole Eminem phenomenon back then, but it was crazy for sure. I still vividly remember the days that I bought the Marshall Mathers LP the day it came out and Eminem show the day it came out. I have vivid memories of blasting those on the way to basketball practice. I had to rush across town, to get to the CD the day they released, and back to practice in time😂 I also have a vivid memory of when the blueprint released and me freaking out when I saw that Eminem and Jay Z finally had a song. Only to realize that it was going to be some of Eminem's best verses of his career. 🤯 But I also don't think that m&m killed Jay Z on this, I think Jay Z did his own thing. But I'm biased because they're both two of my favorite rappers of all time. 🤷
