The Man
Marshall Bruce Mathers was born in Kansas City, U.S.A.
This guy failed Standard Nine thrice.
Decided that academics wasnt his cup of tea.he then recorded an album Infinite which sold less than a thousand albums.
Then went to The 1997 Rap Olympics where he came second. But never knew that although he lost the Rap Battle he won the biggest victory of his life. He was spotted by hi mentor Dr.Dre
Next up .The Slim Shady EP . hmm a bad start of sorts.
The Slim Shady LP did platinum thrice. He had arrived . Eminem had arrived
The following is my list of Eminem’s Greatest Songs
The Real Slim Shady
This is the song that announced had arrived.the fundoo of the song is simple. blast as my celebrities as you can. this has that feel good factor attached to with witha heavy dose of humour.The lyrics although controversial just make you laugh.
The video of the song has eminem limpling with a plastic pair of but* . the song became a smash hit world wide and was the star attraction in the Slim Shady LP. Kool song huh.
Here how the song goes.
May I have your attention please?
May I have your attention please?
Will the real Slim Shady please stand up?
I repeat, will the real Slim Shady please stand up?
We’re gonna have a problem here.
Y’all act like you never seen a white person before
Jaws all on the floor like Pam, like Tommy just burst in the door
and started whoopin her as* worse than before
they first were divorce, throwin her over furniture
It’s the return of the.’Ah, wait, no way, you’re kidding,
he didn’t just say what I think he did, did he?’
And Dr. Dre said. nothing you idiots!
Dr. Dre’s dead, he’s locked in my basement!
Feminist women love Eminem
’Slim Shady, I’m sick of him
Look at him, walkin around grabbin his you-know-what
Flippin the you-know-who, ’Yeah, but he’s so cute though
They got the Discovery Channel don’t they?
Cleaning out My Closet
This is the most underrated eminem song till date. in this one eminem has poured his heart to tell his saga of his difficult relations with his mother and the problems he faced during his childhood
the video is very interesting as mnm is shown as digging a grave for his mom.
Well as all eminem songs this one has its own share of pretty interesting one liners as
i was a baby maybe I was a couple of months . my f*ggot father must have had his panties up in a bunch.
a very underrated song . this one never one huge accolades as the real slim shady and stan but still it remains mine personal favourite till date.
The song is all about the hatred which eminem encloses in his heart for his mom. its a very touching song in a way as it shows the darker side of his life
It proves that there more to eminem than grammy nominations and shady aftermath. it shows that he’s childhood was devoid of mother’s love which one needs so badly
Have you ever been hated or discriminated against, I have, i’ve been protested and demonstrated.
against, picket signs for my wicked rhymes, look at the times, sick is the mind of the
motherfuckin’ kid that’s behind, all this commotion, emotions run deep as ocean’s explodin’,
tempers flaring from parents, just blow’em off and keep goin’, not takin’ nothin’ from no one,
give’em hell long as i’m breathin’, keep kickin’ as* in the mornin’, an’ takin’ names in the
evening, leave’em with a taste as sour as vinegar in they mouth, see they can trigger me but
I’m sorry mama, I never meant to hurt you, I never meant to make you cry, but tonight i’m
cleanin’ out my closet, {one more time}, I said i’m sorry mama, I never meant to hurt you, I
never meant to make you cry, but tonight i’m cleanin’ out my closet.
Stan feat. Dido
This is a duet which eminem first had with Elton John and later with Dido.
This is the saga of a fan’s displeasure at Eminem’s arrogance in replying to his letters.
Eminem starts as Stan who considers himself his greatest fan and in his letters describes his love for eminem. His anguish when eminem ignores Stan at his concerts.
This song is beautifully penned and Dido’s cover is simply great.
Eminem pays gratitude to his fans in this saga of a Fan’s utter love for his idol.
through a series of letters Stan describes his experiences at Eminem’s concerts .
When eminem doesn’t reply to his letters he writes another letter.
Later he dies in a car accident .
Eminem then later replies to Stan but realises that he is dead.
A very touching song about a fan justification of his madness.
Dear Slim, I wrote you but you still ain’t callin’ I left my cell, my pager, and my home phone at the bottom I sent two letters back in autumn You must not have got’em It probably was a problem at the post office or somethin’
’em But anyways, fuk it, what’s been up man, how’s your daughter? My girlfriend’s pregnant too, I’m out to be a father If I have a daughter, guess what I’m-a call her? I’m-a name her Bonnie. I read about your uncle Ronnie too, I’m sorry I had a friend kill himself over some bich who didn’t want him. I know you probably hear this everyday, but I’m your biggest fan. I even got the underground sht that you did with Scam. I got a room full of your posters and your pictures, man. I like the underground sht you did with Ruckus too, that sht was fast. Anyways, I hope you get this man, hit me back, just to chat Truly yours, your biggest fan, this is Stan
Superman
Superman is all about man vs. woman.
This highly controversial song is beliv it or not a kind of a healer of the love dumped ones .
Eminem plays superman~ the man who never gets dumped.
Eminem at his vocal best this one includes such jaw droppers like Yeah we Fud! Bith so what? and We just met and I just Fud you *
Well you just have to listen to this but please dont listen to the censored version as it spoils the whole song as it has forbidden words in almost every line .
Personally I like the Superman-Ignition featuring the renowed rapper R.Kelly
I think I love you baby’, I think I love you too
I’m here to save you girl, come be in Shady’s world
I want to grow together, let’s let our love unfurl
You know you want me baby, you know I want you too
They call me superman, i’m here to rescue you
I want to save you girl, come be in Shady’s world
’Ooooh boy you drive me crazy’, bith you make me hurl.
