Hey Knox, I made it here through the rabbit hole since Houdini dropped last week. I love your channel. When I was 13, I completely by chance stumbled onto Mockingbird on a streaming site. I was hooked on Em from the moment I heard him. I always had my headphones on and it was 95% of the time his music playing. He was so controversial at the time, everyone made fun of me for listening to him and I just never gave a single shit. His music has got me through so many, so many, so many dark times. I love words. I love lyrics. I love beats. I spent hours and hours and hours dissecting what he was saying, researching so I could understand the context, his life, who he is. He has been an inspiration to me beyond words on such a profound level. He is my favourite artist of all time. I saw him live in London in 2018, I spent my whole salary on getting myself there with my best friend. I cried the entire show, just out of pure emotion to hear him live, live the songs live. I didn’t think I could appreciate his art anymore than I already did, respect him more than I already did. Then I found your channel this weekend, and you’ve highlighted things I’ve missed over the last 16 years I’ve been listening to him. You’ve helped me deepen my understanding and my appreciation of his art, but also of hip hop. THANK YOU.

One line that I love in this song that no one seems to catch is “look, there’s an apple. No it’s not, it’s a peach!” It works on the ‘colorblind’ level because they’re both small, hand-held fruits with similar colors. But it also works to kind of mark how times change. Back in the early-mid 2000’s apple could refer to a nice ass (think Apple bottom jeans), but in recent years, partly thanks to the iPhone’s emoji library, a nice ass is more readily associated with a peach

Just the title of this album has so much meaning. A Kamikaze is a term from ww2, where pilots would intentionally crash planes into warships. The planes were strapped with enough bombs to hopefully destroy the ship, but of course the pilot would die too. It's a trade of one life for many, many more enemy lives. So essentially Em is saying that yeah, he intends to take everybody out with this album - all the mumble rappers, the press, the media, his fake fans and haters - but he knows that to do that he also destroys himself in a way, because he'll be called petty & out of touch & whatever else. The Ringer as an opening song really sets up this concept.

“I breathe on the mirror, I don't see my breath, possibly I'm dead, I must be possessed, like an evil spell, I'm E-V-I-L” he’s in the mirror, evil in the mirror backwards is l-i-v-e, maybe he’s saying “he’s live” or maybe “alive” as a playoff on the “possibly I’m dead” bar 🤔🤯 or maybe neither and I’m just looking too deep but that’s why I love lyricists who’s music always has a deeper meaning rather than mumble rap

I really gotta thank you for your breakdowns. You are catching things that I was oblivious to, even after seeing other reaction videos to these tracks. Some videos will tell you they caught a triple, but, not f'n explain it. Rap is not my main music scene, so, I'm not up on all the lingo, or all the popular rappers at any time. I just came up in the early days of rap, and, I have artists that I've followed their whole careers, like Em, Dre, Snoop, NWA, Too Short, Tupac.

First time here. Gotta say, 'if you ever wanna pick up a girl quote eminem..' killed me lol. As a songwriter the multiple meanings Em exploits our minds with is incredible. Really love the way you broke this down and the way you caught almost everything, meaning and all was impressive and great to watch. Great job! This is how I would describe Eminem, and I have to use the words of the greatest wordsmith in literary history, somebody who I believe Eminem is a modern day version of, Niche! And this quote is the same amazing, once in a lifetime ability - *Niche - 'I only need a sentence to explain what other writers need a book to explain, maybe not even a whole sentence...* : that is Eminem also!
