RAP GOD BREAKDOWN!! FINALLY!! (EMINEM)

[@amythest14]

How to properly breakdown a rap: pulls out gun

[@justinmarzan8599]

rofl exactly

[@justinmarzan8599]

@Harveer Bhinder how he took his gun out in the video

[@santosnaosantos]

Me lembrou R Kelly no South Park "Ton was close in the closeeet, and I pull up my gun" hahhaha

[@UncleRandy73]

Only Em himself could break this down any better. Good stuff, bro!

[@TheThirdErnest]

Randy S haha thanks man! Maybe he’ll see it and say the same lol

[@robey5021]

This is definitely the best breakdown I’ve seen, but there’s still more to this song that you didn’t even mention, maybe for time consideration. Right from the beginning even, with the 6 minutes shady, you’re on (Doug E. Fresh)...along with the Captain America “And a Phoenix Shall Rise” references.

[@Goin_Postal]

@@TheThirdErnest BRO I DARE YOU TO REACT TO Rap god remix by K.A.A.N.

[@Bobal27]

@@robey5021 There’s more to this than most people know, even to this day. If you ever wondered who was the main focus of the “punchlines, just in case,” that are “inadvertently hurting you,” ask me for a very long breakdown of who this dis track is about. I guarantee it’ll make you think about this song in a different light.

[@kukiezarandin1890]

Whoever dislikes this breakdown is straight up stupid. Those would be the people who cant comprehend intelligent lyricism and breakdowns. Ur legit reactions are worth every second of a viewer’s time because u hardly miss any bars. Appreciate u taking the time to break these songs down and educate. Keep it up!

[@kahla3363]

Facts

[@TheThirdErnest]

Thanks kukie that means a lot especially when KZbin says 20 min videos are too long for the average viewer. I’m glad you enjoy it! Makes it all worthwhile

[@kukiezarandin1890]

Just keep it going, man. I hope ur channel blows up. It’s the only reaction channel i dint even think twice subscribing to. The world needs to be educated.

[@lynnaea8513]

I agree! Indeed!

[@SP-db1tu]

I'm an old head and I'm very impressed with you young man. Great breakdown. You got a new sub.

[@DannyLou03]

"Who thinks their arms are long enough to slap box" referes to the broadway musical "Your Arms Too Short to Box with God".

[@FrostySnowman47]

Seriously - that was a clinic. Rap scientist. That’s what you are. Thanks. 🎩

[@TheThirdErnest]

Frosty Snowman thanks man! And thanks for watching!

[@BigBaldBearded]

This dude has some of the most in depth breakdowns on artists that many listeners would never catch. When you pop the pistol to enforce your breakdown, that’s some breakdown legend ish.

[@horbags1181]

You could dedicate this whole channel (or a separate one) entirely to Eminem songs and it would blow up big time. Not to knock your other videos but im an Em fan and id binge that shit. 10/10

[@TheThirdErnest]

Haha thanks man and yeah that’s what I’m finding out lol I’m def going to focus on em and Lupe. Two dude are lyrically insane. Gotta make sure they stay monetized tho! Lol

[@victorpossebon7864]

I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY YOU DIDN'T HAVE AT LEAST 100K SUBS YET

[@subscribetopewdiepieunsubs7765]

Damn, the mass occur/massacre bar was insane at 8:56.

[@TheThirdErnest]

Yupppp one of the most fire bars on the song lol

[@rencenaval1296]

Are you still alive?

[@josebaroza7360]

You’re really bad ass at this man keep it up! you should react to not a like by Eminem ft Royce the 5’9

[@TheThirdErnest]

Jose Baroza people have asked for that multiple times so that’s high priority on the list!

[@CarlosLopez-dd9me]

Dooooooooooo it

[@cloudedkid5754]

My suggests for the next Eminem breakdowns: Sing for the Moment, Beautiful, or Cleanin’ Out My Closet. Great work though, love these!

[@TheThirdErnest]

clouded kid beautiful and cleaning out my closest are on the list!

[@vontepaige7284]

I think you missed the “lead a new school full of students” line. Busta Rhymes was in a group called “Leaders Of The New School” before he became a huge solo rapper.

[@boredasbuck]

never seen anyone mention this wow

[@jimmyralte7]

Its like listening to the song for the first time... no doubt... like MJ is to basketball... in rap Em is G.O.A.T period.

[@TheThirdErnest]

Jimmy Ralte I concur but you always gonna have the peeps saying he can’t be because he’s white

[@NeilAitken]

I keep coming back because your breakdowns are PhD level dissections of Em's verses. No one else digs as deep into each line and explores the breadth of Em's references. It's a masterclass every time. Thanks for doing such an amazing job!

[@jm2679]

Great breakdown. You amplify the greatness of the song. Got me sharing with excitement all your breakdowns to my wife and family. In an attempt to show how many layers of genius Em brings to any track. Thanks. Keep them coming.

[@wilier4604]

This breakdown was incredibly insightful and unveils the intricate genius of the lyrics! Thanks for your hard work!

[@Kiki-xx3fj]

The best Rap God breakdown I've seen, thanks!!! I heard someone say that the line "it's actually disastrously bad for the wack" is a sub diss towards Canibus after the 2012 KOTD battle with Dizaster. What do you think? A reach, or no?

[@TheThirdErnest]

Kiki thank you! And It very well could be. There’s so many layers with em that nothing is really a reach at this point lol

[@bilbowaggins8967]

The 50 song that you refered to but forgot the name of around 7:05 was Patiently Waiting. A classic. Great breakdown bro

[@omajor1574]

I can't wait for this breakdown!! One of my favorite tracks of all time. Let's get it!!

[@tiffanyfountain6517]

Love your videos man. When you were talking about listening to Em in the back of your dads car super low because he didn't want you listening to him, that got me laughing. When I was a kid my brother and I loved Eminem but our parents took away the Slim Shady LP and said we couldn't listen to it until they approved of it. Later that night we heard them in the living room listening to the CD and we could hear my mom cackling every now and then. They gave it back to us the nest day, and my Mom has been an Eminem fan ever since, even my Dad acknowledged that Em was a genius wordsmith.

[@TheThirdErnest]

Tiffany Fountain hahaha thanks for the compliment Tiffany. And yes! My mom was like your parents but my dad heard the content of the lyrics and was like heeeellllllllll noooo lolol

[@GhostDrummer]

Bro!!! Loved the gun breakdown! Sick side piece!

[@Reggerss]

BRO i knew rap god was a masterpiece by Em but damn after watching your breakdown, i realized i've been under appreciating this song for the 6 years!! Thank you for the amazing breakdown

[@sanchitarora4448]

You’re awesome man! Love ya content! I have not seen a single other youtuber with such deep analysis like literally every line. Please do these more frequently. Much love

[@jamescantagallo179]

Bro. Your breakdowns are legit. I am a new subscriber. I first found your channel when you discovered NF, but have since been going through your videos and enjoying every one of them.

[@josechaidez4667]

Thought I had caught most of the bars on this song back in 2013... I was wrong... Thanks for this breakdown, it has made me appreciate this song that much more a whole 7 years later!

[@shameezwp6511]

Finally a person that is worthy to reacting to Eminem music Jeez such a fan now watch 3 video's prior and this guy's on point pointing out all the bars and the first to pick up on waka flow change and bars. the Odin line the laptop in my jeans/genes finally I don't have to drop comments on what the point was and Eminem wordplay doubles when people call him whack. Thanks for your reactions video's getting me through the lockdown much love from South Africa

[@ZeeZeeEf]

Im a bit late but after watching your newer em video i decided to go back through your catalog. My dude, you are very good. Like i must have heard this song at least 50 times (no cap) and i've never noticed some of these lines. This is why I love em. Can hear his song 100 times and still notice somethin new. Thank you dude

I am a little late to dsicovering your breakdowns, but great job. I understood about 75/80% of what I thought Eminem was trying to say, but you broke it down even more for me to understand. Keep-up the good work of breaking down songs.

[@jennag3226]

Also, "now I lead a new school full of students"....busta was part of the group leaders of the new school. It's a triple, not a double. Btw, the track you couldn't remember is patiently waiting.

[@TheThirdErnest]

Jay Green yeah and he has a song called shoot for the moon. So it’s really a quadruple lol And yeah someone told me in the live chat. I might do a reaction to patiently waiting lol

[@Yusufsanad]

[@toxdiablo6778]

Best breakdown ever. I said it before, your knowledge of the rap game is unmatched.

[@ThePottels]

Just discovered you last week, I appreciate your work on each video. I am shocked you don’t have more subs, keep grinding, it’s coming. This should be one of highest rated rap breakdown channel imo. 👊👏💪🤞🙌

Only reactor that catches every bar and can actually understand what he's hearing ..nicely played good sir

[@marshall_warpath8695]

Ready or not, here it comes... Wow, I am anticipating this breakdown Bro-tato. Ernest is by far the most knowledgeable Eminem breakdown/reactor on KZbin! Maybe he'll grant me my wish for a breakdown of DEADWRONG W/Biggie & ANYMAN from Soundbombing 2! They just don't know, but I know, you can do it. Peace Out.

[@TheThirdErnest]

Daniel Marshall oooo deadwrong would be a good one. Putting it on the list!

[@missrumm]

Best breakdown so far i watched so many reaction videos and most of them were abele to break less than 60% of the whole thing, finally i got it and enjoyed it

Hey Bro, I just wanna appreciate your hardwork on this video but this video is truly underrated.

[@galshalev2931]

I just had to add, the opening with: 6 minutes slim shady you're on is a call back to the song "remember me" from the MMLP where it has a voice that says the same thing! That is dope AF!! LOVE THIS SONG! Incredible reaction Ernesto!! 🔥🔥🔥❤

[@SimplySprateX]

hey this is another meaning for the Busta Rhymes part, Busta back in the like early 90s was a part of the group "Leaders of the New School" some amazing shit figured id throw it in the comments since i didnt see anyone else drop this little delicious gem on ya lol

[@SleepySuperhero]

This is the second video of yours I've seen (first was Godzilla) and I LOVE LOVE LOVE that you cover the meanings of things from a perspective of a rapper and rap history AS WELL as the highbrow educated references. If Em weren't a rapper, he could have written for Futurama and blown those Harvard folks minds (for a silly cartoon, definitely Em's speed of humor and silly while still smart).

[@qiuh30]

Bro keep grinding !!! 100% Breakdown !

[@CalebAyrania]

Great breakdown. You should watch what Knox Hill did in his 2 hours breakdown, and there is still levels that arent fully covered. Just one I noticed while watching yours; "Deva Stating" as in a god a deva speaking statements. EM has more layers than anyone can uncover without dedicating whole thesis to the work.

[@Th3nylo]

Great job bro... if you don't mind, I'd like to make some suggestions for possible future breakdowns... top 3 most underrated Eminen songs for me: Legacy, Headlights and Castle, honorable mention for 'Beautiful'.. Legacy because it's such and inspiring song and he rhymes almost the whole song to the same sound. If you're gonna do 'Headlights' you would have to do 'Cleaning out my closet' first because they go hand-and-hand. And 'Castle' should be followed by 'Arose'. Keep up the good work.

[@horbags1181]

Second the request for Legacy.

[@TheThirdErnest]

All three noted bro. I’m down for them!

[@kristaf6234]

I love your reactions but you brought out a gun and were safe with it. I love that! The lack of knowledge that people have but still own guns is scary! I can't wait for more NF by the way!

[@TotallyStoked]

Everything you said in this video is great. However, no one ever noticed the visuals. He starts with Max Hedrome, Pong, Mario Brothers, Rockin Sock'em Robots and and so many other references to rap greats in the background. As the years go on he starts going into The Matrix. You have the lyrics down, but the visuals tell a better story.

[@vaevictus4637]

MIXTAPE LUPE FOR THE WIN. This is an excellent video coverage of this song. I consider Rap God one of Eminem's best songs even if it's a recent one.

[@Wickit96]

One thing that I've always thought after hearing the ending as it was around the same time when Big Sean released the control verse, was when Kendrick Lamar says he's the king of New York King of the coast, one hand I juggle them both, so it was a very subtle response to that saying what's a king to a God, great breakdown though! Never got the reference to supersonic either even years after hearing the song

[@BALLENSHOTCALLIN]

I read somewhere, prob genius, that the “maxi pad/dizastrously bad” line was in reference to the KOTD battle between Cannibus and Dizaster where Cannibus choked and had to pull out a notepad, it was really uncomfortable to watch or “dizastrously bad”. Would you recap a battle on here? If so, Iron Solomon vs. Dizaster was insane.

[@tayloredwards9086]

Oh never caught the second meaning to walk a flock of flames of a plank. Just thought about the rapper Everytime. Great catch my man, your rap knowledge is on point.

[@night2251]

Dude amazing break down. I’d like to add that general Zod is not the god of krypton, he was just a military leader sent to earth to retrieve Superman (in certain incarnations). The god of the DC universe is the presence. But also Kryptonians are often compared to gods, it’s pretty evident on runs like the injustice series. Or even compared to the pinnacle of human’s in the words of lex Luther. The line itself most likely comes from Superman 2 (1980) where Zod tells the president of the United States to “kneel before general Zod.” Because he thinks he’s the ruler of earth, basically trying to make the whole world kneel before him.
