There is evidence of this. Jay Z himself said that Eminem beat him. The funny thing here is that the original song is Eminem and Royce's 5'9" and I understand that Eminem gave it to Jay Z. The joke isn't over yet. Eminem didn't change his verses. Jay Z listened to Eminem's verses and still couldn't beat him.

At the end of the day they both got respect for each other and got each other in their top 5.

If you pay attention to the verse structure in em’s verses vs jays you can start to understand why em raps at the level he does. He rhymes with technicality and he’s extremely intelligent.

As a huge fan of Eminem I underrated Jay Zs verse. He really said I bring you through the ghetto without riding around, hiding down, ducking strays from frustrated youths stuck in their ways. Bars were crazy and he really did bring you on a crazy story. Lowkey Eminem fit the renegade more and had great bars too

[@shawnesfahanijr.6743]

When Eminem was coming up, he was probably the most controversial mainstream artist period- before social media. He was always a step ahead and knew how to hit and what the response would be and would always pre-empt it and literally exhausted his critics while the crowd went wild and his fan base grew. He was the antagonist and the equalizer and the “TRL generation” loved it while every adult hated it. He knew this and made his “butter” off the hatred with a big smile .

[@nocturnal_nick1]

What’s amazing about this song is that they both attacked it a completely different way causing it to be an instant classic! Eminem definitely had the better verses tho, I still get chills when he says take a bath with the Catholics in holy water no wonder they tried to hold me under longer

[@BILL_BO_jangles]

In the song, both rappers address their critics directly. Eminem's verses touch on his often controversial lyrical content and its impact on his listeners, arguing that parents and critics should be more concerned with their own roles rather than blaming him for society's problems. Jay-Z's verses, on the other hand, tackle the critique that he glorifies a lifestyle of crime. He argues that his lyrics simply reflect the harsh realities of the environment where he grew up, and he's just a product of that environment.

[@abelvillarreal7676]

one of the verses you were stuck at was masterclass, in the 2nd verse Eminem is reflecting on his role as a prominent rapper and the influence he has on young listeners. He acknowledges that he is not a politician, but he recognizes the power he holds to connect with and impact the younger generation. When Eminem says, "They call me a menace and if the shoe fits, I'll wear it," he is referring to the criticism and controversy he has faced throughout his career. He is willing to accept the label of being a troublemaker or controversial figure if it accurately describes his impact. However, he also suggests that if the shoe doesn't fit, meaning if the criticism is unjust or exaggerated, then people should accept the truth he presents in his music rather than ignoring or dismissing it. He challenges the listeners to face the reality he presents, even if it may be uncomfortable or goes against prevailing opinions. The following lines where Eminem asks, "Now who's the king of these rude, ludicrous, lucrative lyrics? Who could inherit the title, put the youth in hysterics?" show his confidence in his lyrical abilities and the impact he has on the younger generation. He uses his music as a platform to share his views and experiences, aiming to provoke thought and stir emotions. However, Eminem acknowledges that there is a significant interference or opposition trying to silence or discourage people from listening to his music. The last line, "they're saying you shouldn't hear it," implies that there are forces attempting to censor or discourage the audience from engaging with his content.

[@goodwill4734]

That first verse is Em’s greatest of all time imo. That 2nd verse is top 5 for him and the last 6 or 7 bars might the greatest wordplay of all time in hip hop history. No rapper in their prime that has ever existed would be able to go bar for bar after getting sent that. Not Kendrick, Nas, nobody. Jay was a real one by not backing down and putting that shit on his album

It's pretty crazy for one that theyre only discovering such a big song now, but on the other hand Im glad they are open minded to listen to older music.

[@DupréeStern-m6t]

I’m a lifelong, diehard Jay Z fan. This is the ONLY song he ever made where I was waiting for the other rapper to start rapping again. Eminem is just unreal. That man is not human.

[@ronnylos3483]

So they use Renegade as a way of saying they did it on there own in the way they wanna do it, not complying with the rules set by people not knowing what they went trough.

[@charg1nmalaz0r51]

I give this to em for a few reasons. First its his song, he made it with royce and gave it to jay and took royce off it, Second his flow just flows better. Content wise they both speak their shit and honestly i would say they are pretty much equal in this song. Like i said though those few points above are why i give it to em. You guys should check out em and royces version of this, i honestly prefer it to the one that got released but that might just be me.

[@alexparker6724]

check out LUCKY YOU from EM ft JOYNER just see how epic he is

[@blessedandstressless]

This was how my friends and I were looking when we first heard this song as teens 20 or so years ago…glad these young people are discovering how good our generation of music was! ❤

[@magsxoa4519]

This is the very first time I heard this song. Yall just popped up on my recommendations, so I clicked. But let me say, Em killed the shit out of this for real. 🐐

[@ImmanuelRandD]

Legendary song

[@MezbahRijvee]

Lol I was waiting on y’all boys to react to this one. Jay went crazy on this but Em just on a different level. I still love this song. 2 icons in one song 💯🔥

[@yungjoka5962]

Bruh Eminem killed Jay Z, Jay Z HIMSELF admitted this lmao everyone knows EM took this one

[@jrjunior8468]

Why is it all about that with you fans like holy just enjoy two legends, cuz personal opinion I live Jayz verse here it's just so relatable and paints a picture

[@degenerate.3574]

@@jrjunior8468 Alot of people look at rap like a sport like this. It comes from Battle raps all the way to the VS events. It makes complete sense to look at it as a battle between to rappers.

[@GIjoe614]

u had 2 come like this bac then dope lyrics & meaningful content with a strong vocabulary & riding the beat like a beast

[@qrealdonyai3879]

I made a comment before I watched y'all! And Omg, nephew in the red is how I hear him ! He's fckin Amazing how he uses words, to insult, and rhyme at the same time! Eminem is a gift, that has a gift!😂😂 Thanks, made my old school night!❤😂

[@saoudiiheb9680]

More eminem reactions please ...you guys are great 🙏💯

[@dupluxbloomman9499]

Eminem- stay wide awake Eminem- infinite 1996 Both are crazy

[@350zlover2]

Em went crazy on this track! Probably one of his best verses.

[@WeaveYaWorld2024]

Eminem ate Jay alive on this track. While Jay is undoubtedly great, Eminem is a lyrical beast. I am unsure why Jay released this track, but I must credit him for being brave. As of 2023, Jay-Z has sold 140 million records worldwide, while Eminem has sold over 500 million. It is simply an astronomical difference, and I am tired of this debate. Though Eminem may not be played in clubs often, let's not forget about "Smack That," which probably got played more than most hip-hop artists combined. People and artists only say this because there is nothing else to say! Eminem has sold 227 million records in America alone, an 87 million difference just in America. For any other artist, this alone would give them an overwhelming win. It would be embarrassing if we were to compare their worldwide sales. While I am not a stan, this is just a joke at this point.

[@TranceSFX]

damn fuckin good song. Jay held it - gravitation vs gravity. Jay had some maddd bars lol

[@CrowTRobot]

The "fork in the road" line is heat

Bro funny as hell going world wide greetz from holland

[@zackd.4412]

Eminem the hills remix.. Eminem fine line.. Eminem groundhog Day.. Eminem kings never die and Eminem soldier

[@jackm4536]

Not a fan of the hills. Really awkward era for Eminem

[@girlpower5996]

Kings never die is my shit!

[@Christian_Bagger]

I think it’s great to see those two on the same track. I’m from Europe, so I listened back then as a 12 year old to rap pretty purely… didn’t understand most of anything about it at first, that came later… but Eminem was my introduction to rap… it dripped from there and I’ve enjoyed a lot of Jay-Z music as well, so I’m just happy with seeing these two together.

[@janeanonymous3151]

It’s about their revolt against the govt ; remember at this time there were literal congressional hearings against eminems music and other artists in an attempt to censor their music. Also aimed at the traditional music industry and what the “critics” said about music that the industry didn’t agree with at the time Love this! ❤

[@farrahrosado8593]

He makes me want to get my vocab up!!! Hahahahha. I want to write my masters in English thesis on his lyrics.

[@farrahrosado8593]

Month later still my fave line!!!

[@Hector-jq5bz]

Y’all should check out Cold Wind Blows by Em, it’s pure 🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@Twilight.Princess]

Easily one of my favorite duo rap songs to exist. Em truly shined on this track, the true GOAT, but don’t get it fucked up Jay destroyed this shit too.

[@virgilijusbernikas1666]

Second Verse Jay went all out

[@jess6972]

Wish these 2 made more music together. Jay was the co main at eminems concert years ago in detroit. They put on a hell of show

[@ClutchingMyPearls35]

Top tier collab! Lyrics it’s even, delivery it’s Em and I’m a diehard J fan. I would love to hear Em and Black Thought collab!

[@Rqarte626]

Y'all need to react and marathon over kamikaze album.. would love to see y'all hyped up with all the shot em pops . Hahahaha .. anyway, new subs here .. Love your channel,I'm gonna marathon every single video in this channel tonight.. 🙌much love from Malaysia 🙌🙌

[@cuoredolce29]

Omg I fricken LOVE the song Kamikaze!! That whole album though was 🔥🔥🔥

[@slimjimmy127]

It's not a question that needs to be answered... imo. They blessed us with a dope ass track🔥🔥🔥 Props to y'all for looking up sh*t you don't know 💯 But yeah... Em took him💨

[@johnQrl]

I personally only remember Jay Z's verse. It hit me more so I still remember it till this day all these years later.

[@young_raymond47]

Hov's bars are definitely the more memorable. If you're quoting a bar from the song, it's most likely one of his.

[@mxgrant24]

I promise this was me and my brother reaction when this first came out. We legit had to pull over. We both was bobbing and vibing just like the fella in the red hoodie. Lmao!! We ran it back and stopped it and ran it back.. yo! This is one of my favorite songs! From the beat to all the gems in this jawn omg. It warms my heart to see the youngins vibing to this classic and appropriating it. ❤️

[@bettergenetics2653]

This song is just straight fire they both showed up period!

[@AshCam-up2cf]

Em original wrote this song (I think with Royce da 5’9), and Jay heard it, liked it, and obvi wanted to do a different version for his album. In my opinion this is why it feels like Em killed him on his own track, Em already killed it before Jay decided he wanted to add it to his album.

[@casiusking6258]

Exactly Brothers Eminem didn't change nothing on his verses except take a few out and changed the hook to fit Jay in and still Em Killed him on that track I prefer the Original version with Royce Da 5'9 on it
