Eminem is fuckin up the hiphop world this year! everyone else needa take a back seat! ross dont want it lolol dat fat ass would take the beating that 50 cent was supposed to give him lolol
HM,MY CONTACTS IN VENEZUELA HAVE INFORMED ME OF AN INCOMING WAVE OF BITCHASSNESS BELOW THIS VERY POST,SOURCES POINT TO DISGRUNTLED DEEPER THAN CRAP FANS VENTING THEIR ANGER AND HATE FOR THAT WHICH IS GREATER THAN DEEPER THAN CRAP,RICK ROSS,DEFJAM,AND THE TRIPLE CS GROUP OF FLUNKIES.
rick ross owns you. even when threads have nothing to do with him you speak his name. you’re owed, how does it feel? never mind, i’m sure you feel like a lame. LOL..
there is no way to hate on this,
so I wasn’t surprised as I read the comments.
Em got ya thinking.
he plotting. if we made you
was wack, he knows you know.
lol
i think we can all agree that shady is crazy
but this shit is on another level
nothin he ever put out before
im loving it ……hahahahahah
you fake dancing niggas are getting ya legs chopped off hahahahahah
we got wayne crew coming out
kanye crew comin out
the 3 interscope monsters
nas just dropped nigga
busta is back on his BS
the new WU video is incredible
T.I is the king of the south again
and Jay is comin with a classic
Oh man, not dickriding or nuttin, but i really dont think i have seen a music vid like this. shit is basically a movie, blew me away, i understand the crazy voice he uses iun this now., fits the whole fkn concept
^^^^ Lil’ Wayne fan enough said, I miss that psycho shit in hip-hop, from Meth to when Cam use to be in his crazy bag, everybody always talkin’ that happy shit life ain’t peachy faggots
lol… lil-wayne-fan.. why u in this blog u lolipop nigga gtfo…. EM back bitches move out the way .. true artist always brgin fire and fresh material into the game
lol here we go with this crazy shit again…this is Em’s style tho, only he can pull this off. Video is was well done and can tell He had alot to do with the making of it lol And please…enough with this whole “Em is saving hip hop”..he’s a great artist..but he’s just contributing to the process that had already started..but im sure people will see it different. Cant wait to hear whats on the rest of the album tho, will be one of the top albums of the year…
While everyone else is either making up dances or going the Flo Rida route and selling your soul to sell singes, I respect Eminem for making what he thinks is the best music he can make.
In response to the music, shit’s pretty hot, feeling it mostly, the third verse was hot…but his voice can get annoying when it gets high, it becomes kinda whiny at points.
can’t get into this shit…the voice is gay..thats one of the fundamentals of rap Em didn’t work on..his lyrics are top notched, his flow is crisp…but that voice is just…ugh…corny..yall would agree if this didn’t have Em’s name on it.
this shit is stupid!!!! STUPID=Good
its scarey too…….at the end he was saying “e-vil rise” that shit gave me the creeps!!!LOL
but Em is super tight extra-ordinary on the lyrics. Rick Ross might need to shut-up on Em. Truly Ross hit 50 good, but he should stop @ Em. Em is incredible wit serious songs and lollipop songs. Thanks Em for great Lyrics & word play
lmao @ #45’s list….u can scratch the last two off.. ESPECIALLY Yayo lol
and #44, I agree wit ya..Ross does need to pump his brakes on the whole goin at Em thing…if he can make this creepy ass song and vid…imagine what he could do if he focused on one person… Ross, just walk away with ur #1 album while its still #1..lol
The video is great, dont like the song much. Hope this dont make his stans become serial killers. Cant wait for Bill O’reilys opinion on this hes going to have a field day.
yo!
em is back shit was mad crazy
shut the fuck up about hip hop dead alive shit
it just was in a little slump
when everybody had a club beat and a catchy hook
there was no originality
but i agree its gunna be a great year for hip hop so many styles of hip hop sounds like the late 80s early 90s
i think if 3 stacks and big boi came out this year it would be even better but its whatever
Horrible…how the hell is someone with a normal brain supposed to relate to this…maybe white folks who go crazy and kill their families…ill take money hoes and cars anyday over this…its geting played out..the marshall marthers lp is the best album from em..its been downhill from there….tell me how you’d listen to this yourself, or in the club or wit friends…or a chick?…no wonder dre is scared to release an album too..
THIS IF TUFF. LIKE RUBEBERMAID. I SAW IT LAST NIGHT ON CINEMAX BEFORE THE MOVIE STRANGERS. REAL TALK THIS WILL BECOME THE NUMBER ONE VIDEO AND SONG IN AMERICA WITHIN A WEEK.
OOOOHHH MYYYYY GOOOODDDDDAAAA!!! WHATA VIDEO!! SIIIICCCKKK!! AND NOW THE MUSIC MAKES MORE SENSE!.. BUT!!..I ONLY CAN LISTEN TO THIS SONG BY WATCHING THE VIDEO THO! LOL.
EMINEM best rapper alive. Look @ his album sales. Listen to his lyrics. EM dont wear tight jeans or kiss his daddy in the mouth like “other people”. FINALLY hiphop got a face to it again. Niggaz supporting officer ross and wayne need to cut they wrist.
@Superman bump ur brakes! Em is nice, this song shows his creativity, lyrical skill, and word play. But this song also shows a sick side I cant fuck with; as well as the we made you single was the corny silly shit thats wack ass hell. This dude talkin bout drnking sum1 blood, cutting off arms all type of sick shit that i cant get wit. BUT HE DEF NOT THE FACE OF HIP HOP! Hip hop originated from the hood & the streets and Em is not niether so he cant never be the face of hip hop wearing wigs & dressing up like Elvis & making videos about being a serial killer. NEWS FLASH—- NIGGAS IN THE HOOD DONT RIDE TO EM MUSIC!& we not serial killers; we hustleing & thuggin! I dont care how nice he is lyrically we dont relate with him.
Why you sooo mad all the time?? I like Eminem too, but you sound like the president of his fan club! What does tight jeans, Rick Ross or Lil Wayne gotta do with him?
Not to single you out or anything, but i feel this is why rap sales stay low. Every dude think they can only support one artist. Everybody wanna beef. The beef is so rare in other genres, that’s why they do stadium tours. That’s why they can use little to no promotion and still do well on the billboard charts. They put “Summer Jams” in every city. That’s just their regular tours. They don’t let ego get in the way. And neither do their fans.
The only time you hear about the verbal attacks between fans of other genres is when you deal with that teeny-bopper pop stuff. Back in the day it was ‘Nsync vs Backstreet Boys fans, now it’s Miley Cyrus vs that other lil girl…. their fans are pre-teens. Let’s grow up!!! Imagine if people ain’t beef like that and you could have a tour with all Headliners!!! Sometimes you get lucky and get someone that raps to go on tour with an R&B star, but rarely will you find two plus Rappers (not in the same crew so EM, Dre, and 50 would not count) doing a stadium tour circuit.
Mannn. This Video was Nice. Just what the industry needed. All ignorant people stoop making comments on race. Im a black man i give respect to any artist who be really spittn. Now to the video and song. This Shit is hot. Im excited bout dude cd. And i dont know if this is true but was that officer ricky he killed in the video? lol But nahh i seems all the all heads finnally coming back. cuz im tired of seeing these artist comeone the seen fuckn dances and nice hooks. Wheres the fuckn Substance. Thanks Eminem i got you when yo shit drop no homo lol
this video is gruesome and is definitely not gonna be shown on mtv and definitely not on “holier than thou” BET… but the storytelling was dope and the video was on point… storytelling is why i love hip hop… i wanna hear it as it as if i’m reading a book. i know that might be too intellectual for some of y’all under 21… i’m just being real.
as far as the video, for all those saying “it’s like a movie”…. obviously, that’s why it premiered on cinemax!!!! em needed this after that we made you crap. i hate when he makes that commercial bs just for radio play but i get it, it’s all business. he did it with every other cd too. he always has that wack @ss song from the jump and all the dumb kids buy it and play that track over and over then he’ll put out something like guilty conscience then i’ll think he can rap again. my thing is, how long can he rap about killing people and taking prescription drugs?
whats so ill bout this cat; he’s talkin bout being a serial killer, drinkin blood, & cuttin off arms! Yes he can rap but wtf is he talkin bout? This shit is all fictional & rap suppose to be base on reality; unless hes rappin for the Jefferey Dahmer’s of the world. I didnt kno serial killers like rap music. Yall can have this shit, this is exactly why i never bought an Em album b/c he raps bout the CRAZIEST shit!
wtf???? how do ppl actually love this… i mean, its not bad but its just… 2001 eminem… i feel like ive already heard this exact song from him 100 times… he sticks to the same formula and u lames eat it up. hes no different from these other wack artists. finds a formula and rapes it… he just happens to actually be able to rap lol… he needs to reinvent himself, thats why kanye is so relevant… not that hes a better rapper then em, but em must be HORRIFIED to take risks outside of his comfort zone…
Ok, I understand that everyone is not going to rock w/ Em I get it, but the HATE IS RIDICULOUS! One dude said he can’t relate to it WTF!?! That’s like saying “OH, WOLVERINE IS ABOUT MUTANTS, SO I’M NOT GOING TO WATCH IT BCUZ I CAN’T RELATE” GTFOH w/ that shit! YEah it’s left, but i’d rather some CREATIVE different shit vs. the same song and dance that EVERYBODY ELSE IS DOING. SO you’re telling me u relate more to what cats like Ross, Jeezy, Jay, etc. do? That’s str8 BULLSHIT! Realistically, Common is like the only relatiable dude in the game. @ the end of the day it’s about respecting ART for what it is.
Lol at niggas saying its to violent. I guess no one watches horror movies.
He’s just painting a picture with words of a horror thriller.
I gues niggas can only paint vivid drug game picture.
I like that Em does something different and people say he can because he’s white as if black artists are not allowed. Aint his fault niggas only accept fictitious hood tales.
OPLAH WINFLEY can you please learn how to speak English? Thanks. The video was dope because it provided accurate imagery for the song. I wasn’t really feeling 3AM that much till this video. Eminem was rapping in that strange voice. Eminem the face of Hip Hop? How? Because of 3AM? Settle down people. I am a big Em fan, but let’s not get carried away. Let us wait for the album to drop before we officially call Eminem God.
i’m starting to think some of yall shady rec. fans are really lonely. and i think yall only root for 50 cuz he signed to shady rec. i dont see how u can watch em’s video and say 50 and em are back?
yall niggas in here talkin bout rick ross? money cant buy that kinda promotion yall faggots give rick ross everyday, every post. so rick ross was a co, now he’s a fraud. yall scream all day ricky is fake, and then say how u love em? is em real? is this what his life be bout? or because its like a movie he gets a pass? his rhymes are movies, but ross is fake? i assume most rap is fake, but em is by far the biggest faker out there, not cuz he white but because he talks about killing on a much larger scale than other artist. most artist say “i’ll shoot u” em says “i’ll mass murder everyone in sight and blow up police stations and fly away on my space ship”
em fans are actually lil wayne fans on the low, u cant respect this and hate wayne they are too similiar. only difference is em is better lyrical, but they both on the same creative mass murder drug addict shit all day yall are blind sheep and the only reason u keep bringing up wayne and ross is cuz 50 told u too. if 50 diss ur moms u would probably be like “yea that bitch is wack she dont sell no records”
^^^ County of Kings got a point… people do give em a pass on what he raps about, why does everyone gotta research everyone else’s life, to see if they’re REAL or not… it’s all entertainment!!
i never looked at it that way, if you think about EM’s PSA’s in his albums he’s basically saying if you think i’m what i rap about is real then you’re stupid. People don’t mind eminem being on some fake ish but when it comes to someone else, people are quick to the “we don’t believe you, you need more people”.. good point. everyone knows that eminem is not a killer but when it comes to rick ross being a shady CO, people can’t buy that. why couldn’t rick ross have one foot in the straight life and one foot in the dirt???? i mean, i still like some eminem b/c lyrically when he wants to, he can create an interesting story and not many others can.
as far as other rappers are concerned, some said that common is relevant to most ppl’s lives, i love some common, but for all the jeezy’s, clipse, and early jay-z stuff, i woulda never known about drugs like that. sorry i’m not from the hood, i know drug users, and dealers but the day-to-day inner city or countryside stories, i don’t know that, i know how drugs go in the ‘burbs, so i appreciate the story. it’s like watching the wire, i ain’t know what baltimore was like before that.
Everybody is entitled to their own perspective of what a song that epitomizes hip-hop should sound like. I just think it’s so funny when people who claim that they’re so gangster or hood can actually say that they relate to songs or rappers that talk about all the shit that they have, that you wish you could have. My favorite thing about rappers like Eminem, Lupe, Common, Talib..etc…is that they never mention how much money they have like all of the rappers that brag and shit to a fan base with a high percentage of people within it being piss poor. Cool shit.
im a huge eminem fan but this song sucks and so does his first single we made you…crack a bottle is hot…he needs to stop rapping in that high pitch voice and he needs hotter beats come on dre
Because of all of the, “shady’s back!, thank you, Em!”, and all the rest of the comments that jock alike on her, I disregarded my first impression – where I shut it down in less than 30 seconds …and gave it a second shot. After seeing this video once, there’s no reason to want to see it again …no reason to wanna hear the song again
…and like someone noted, it’s nothing I can relate to….THANK GOD!!!!
The whole concept is dead and dumb. Who wants to vibe with blackin’ out and killing people, and regaining consciousness to dead bodies and chopped up body parts???
Not I.
…Eminem’s your hero? I can’t even LOL or LMAO that. There’s nothing funny about it.
so em fans post nothing but the words “em is back” and are accused of being lonely dick riders.
while those who are making the accusations write epic style novels putting across their point….lol
@Da Business like I said I DONT RELATE TO SERIAL KILLING! Music is diff then movies; music is poetry & i wouldnt like poems bout senseless death! & thats not hate thats choice & preference. But hes talented.
LMAO THIS WHITE BOY IS DONE. NO ONE WANTS TO HEAR THIS DUMB ASS SHIT.OH EXCEPT FOR OTHER WHITE BOYS.LMAO. NOW YOU CAN POST YOUR EM DICK SUCKING COMMENTS NOW.LMAO.FUCK THIS SERIAL KILLER ASS SHIT. SO I GUESS EM IS REALLY A MASS MURDER WITH SUICIDAL TENDENCIES NOW.LMAO.TALK ABOUT FAKE.LMAO.LOL.LOL.LOL.LOL.LOL.
Journalist Sarah Rodman argues that Eminem may have waited too long to mount his comeback, and that the country has become too fragmented to be captivated or shocked by the often controversial Slim Shady.
“Is it possible that the polarizing hip-hop star waited too long to reemerge?” Rodman writes. “That a country fragmented by politics, crisis, and technology can no longer rally around one controversial figure? With buzz for his fifth album, ‘Relapse,’ due out May 19, on simmer instead of high, could it be that Eminem is over?”
With a music industry hampered by illegal downloading, Eminem proved he is still capable of generating income, as the author notes. The Dr. Dre , and 50 Cent , assisted “Crack a Bottle” , set a digital sales record, moving up 71 slots on the Billboard Hot 100 to claim the top position in its first seven days of release.
Two more singles are scheduled for release in advance of Relapse , and Eminem will also team up with Marvel Comics character the Punisher to try and resurrect his fledgling album buzz.
@94 COUNTY OF KINGS….most rap is fake and what makes a rapper fake is when they say that they do what they rap about..in inerviews rick ross goes on with his boss/drug dealer personna as if people cant see thru him…whereas people like 50 cent/ jay-z / eminem and the more real rappers are just them selves in interviews and in most cases will say they were just portraying a character it’s not really them….eminem has his slim shady persona….50 cent has admitted to writing concepts….jay-z for example made an album based on a movie…those are concepts and personas …now when it comes to wayne and rick ross, fat joe and other dilousional rappers, they actually convince themselves of what they write and then try to live it out in interviews thats why the majority of people will call those rappers fake..
the difference between em and wayne is eminem can actually rap and em puts more effort into his music which makes him more captivating
I hear u, btw I wasn’t trying to single u out just was randomly reading posts. Believe me it aint personal. Anyway, I got to disagree w/ u on the movies are different from music statement. Hear me out, there one in the same, one is visual and the other is musical. They both originate from a inner thought. Both paint pictures, to me the main difference is 1 is based on rhyming while the other is not. That’s just me.
@ country of kings
u have some very solid points, but the thing w/ Ross is he denied the CO thing. If he owned up to it from the start, we wouldn’t be talking about it. It’s a fact that he just kept lying about the fact. It wasn’t until 50 went in for him to come out and say it was him. That’s my only thing w/ Ross. Dudes makes great music, he’s just not real. No one is really what they talk about, but in Ross’ mind he really thinks he’s the real Rick Ross. That’s a problem.

@Da Business 1st i appreciate u givin ur opinion w/o insults. But the reason I think music is different b/c it was created by guys who were rappin bout there life and surroundings. Thats the true essences of hiphop opinion & i think rappers like Em is changing that uhh…. format to some cross over shit like singles we made u; he was dressed up like elvis, women etc… & he be rappin bout crazy crazy spaced out shit. THATS NOT HIP HOP! sorry
lol yo Country of Kings and For Real?? said some real shit..i respect ya thoughts playas
I dont particularly like THIS song because im just not into that whole dark, blackout, kill the next thing that moves type shit…but i know he’s capable of doin better so im interested in seeing what else is on the album…One of the things that concerns me with Raps like this is the percentage of crazy ass listeners who will use this as an excuse to do some of the stupidest shit..People just gotta learn to take music for just what it is…MUSIC. I dont know why people read so much into the personal lives of those who are rapping…its an art, a craft, words used to paint pictures..the more creative you are, the more different and innovative shit u can come up with to tell the story or get ur point across. Who said hip hop had to be ONE WAY??? keeping it all the same makes shit boring cuz u’ll hear the same thing over and over..how to sell drugs, what the hood is like, how many keys are goin out, how to kill a nigga, how much money u have, how much ur clothes and accessories cost, what cars u have…..u get my point lol So u have to respect the artists who changes it up from time to time and show u something different…Hip Hop isnt dead, its just Evolving…people just hate change.
Eminem just made me a bigger than of his than I already was…his mind is really on a whole other continent when it comes to creativity and rhymin…the video is priceless and the song is classic…for the mindframe it creates alone…i love it. This is why people shouldn’t mess with someone of his calibur…it serves you right when you get devoured in the end. And oh yea I don’t care how many times Ross’s name gets mentioned…he won’t sell more records from us saying it cause the majority of us ain’t go buy his shit…i bet u we’ll buy Em’s tho and he will do at least 500k the first week like someone above had said.
U made some valid points, but i have to disagree again. If u want to be technical, the essence or the origin of hop hop if u will in the beginning had nothin’ to do w/ rhyming. Cats like Kool Herc & Afrika Bambaataa, we’re just trying to bring the neighborhoods together to stop the violence @ the time. Really the emcee didn’t come into play until the late 70’s. It was about bringing folks together to have fun, and to relieve some stress.
Anyway, hip hop @ the heart is about self expression. From Djing to Break Dancing to Emceeing it was about expressing yourself and having fun while u did your thing.
Which brings me to my point. Like i mention earlier Em expresses himself while he’s having fun. Yeah he’s not from the hood, but that doesn’t mean it’s not hip hop. It’s hip hop from his perspective. Yes it’s not (what some may say) “traditional hip hop”, neither is Outkast but it is still hip hop.
IMO(the truth tho) lol
Outside of Andre 3k and Nas
nobody is seeing this kid on the mic( i’ll throw Jay in there but he’s not as creative as the others mention)
Yea i’m in agreement with too Aruba man this everybody year to come hard for real. I mean even folks you wouldn’t think would drop a hot track is suprising me on the real.
LOL DAT FLORIDA RAT AINT FUCKIN WIT SHADY RECORDS PERIOD.FUCK DAT LAME ASS NIGGA HE PUT REAL NIGGAS BEHIND BARS REMEMBER THAT FUCK OUTTA HERE MAN..HOW MANY OF THEM CRIMINALS RESPECT OFFICER ROSS NOW..? OR THEN YO FAT ASS ON YO WAY..-702 UNIT
I found your blog while looking for stanky leg stuff, what can I say, I’m a fan. Even though it’s only a fad, I love them GS Boyz I hear they’re working on a new single as well… Maybe it’ll be the “stanky arm” lol
SHADY IS CRAZY but the white nigga can rap i can say that he need some beats real bad money team need 2 HELP U FIND THAT SOUND DONT say shit about MJ nomore nigga u no y he gone real fuckin talk king of pop 100
BIG DRE MJ ON THE RAP GAME NIGGA STILL SHADY IS DOPE THAT VIDEO HARD HE KILLED THEM 100 realtalk SHADY IS A D TOWN KILLER

lol here we go with this crazy shit again…this is Em’s style tho, only he can pull this off. Video is was well done and can tell He had alot to do with the making of it lol And please…enough with this whole “Em is saving hip hop”..he’s a great artist..but he’s just contributing to the process that had already started..but im sure people will see it different. Cant wait to hear whats on the rest of the album tho, will be one of the top albums of the year…
May 3rd, 2009 at 12:14 am
em is baaaaack…shits willllld!…minus the bustin to hannah montana line lmao
May 3rd, 2009 at 12:23 am
i like it. its like a rap version of a marylin manson video
May 3rd, 2009 at 12:25 am
Props to him for being creative.
While everyone else is either making up dances or going the Flo Rida route and selling your soul to sell singes, I respect Eminem for making what he thinks is the best music he can make.
In response to the music, shit’s pretty hot, feeling it mostly, the third verse was hot…but his voice can get annoying when it gets high, it becomes kinda whiny at points.
May 3rd, 2009 at 12:25 am
Too scary
May 3rd, 2009 at 12:26 am
Yo this video is fucking raw
May 3rd, 2009 at 12:31 am
SiCK ViDE0 =P
May 3rd, 2009 at 12:50 am
Yo, yall know 09 is Em’s year, right?
May 3rd, 2009 at 1:00 am
Em is crazy. Sick song & video.
May 3rd, 2009 at 1:08 am
can’t get into this shit…the voice is gay..thats one of the fundamentals of rap Em didn’t work on..his lyrics are top notched, his flow is crisp…but that voice is just…ugh…corny..yall would agree if this didn’t have Em’s name on it.
and btw…im a LOYAL em fan.
May 3rd, 2009 at 1:40 am
bringin that heat.
somethin tells me BET gona catch BITCHAZZ NESS & not play this video,
but will show that stanky leg, exploiting woman, and all this other stuntin all day long.
the video was crazy.
it kinda made me think back when he made “Superman: video with the porn star & it never got played on basic cable channels, but it was out there.
Great product tho. still not a huge fan of that We Made You & Ass Like That flow, but it was still on point, & the rhyming is sick.
May 3rd, 2009 at 1:42 am
that would have been even harder, if he did that regular em rapping voice. “say what you say, sing for the moment”, etc.
May 3rd, 2009 at 1:44 am
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O5A_izJq9Gg
The video on Youtube ^
May 3rd, 2009 at 1:53 am
lol i just hope this replaces that “Ricky Bobby” bullshit video thats been playin….PLEASE!!! lol
and watching this again…Em’s voice does get really annoying after a while…
May 3rd, 2009 at 1:54 am
this shit is stupid!!!! STUPID=Good
its scarey too…….at the end he was saying “e-vil rise” that shit gave me the creeps!!!LOL
but Em is super tight extra-ordinary on the lyrics. Rick Ross might need to shut-up on Em. Truly Ross hit 50 good, but he should stop @ Em. Em is incredible wit serious songs and lollipop songs. Thanks Em for great Lyrics & word play
May 3rd, 2009 at 1:55 am

May 3rd, 2009 at 2:36 am
The video is great, dont like the song much. Hope this dont make his stans become serial killers. Cant wait for Bill O’reilys opinion on this hes going to have a field day.
May 3rd, 2009 at 2:40 am
yo!
em is back shit was mad crazy
shut the fuck up about hip hop dead alive shit
it just was in a little slump
when everybody had a club beat and a catchy hook
there was no originality
but i agree its gunna be a great year for hip hop so many styles of hip hop sounds like the late 80s early 90s
i think if 3 stacks and big boi came out this year it would be even better but its whatever
May 3rd, 2009 at 2:47 am
This shyt was some strait trash…

May 3rd, 2009 at 3:15 am

May 3rd, 2009 at 3:33 am

May 3rd, 2009 at 5:04 am
Horrible…how the hell is someone with a normal brain supposed to relate to this…maybe white folks who go crazy and kill their families…ill take money hoes and cars anyday over this…its geting played out..the marshall marthers lp is the best album from em..its been downhill from there….tell me how you’d listen to this yourself, or in the club or wit friends…or a chick?…no wonder dre is scared to release an album too..
May 3rd, 2009 at 5:07 am
I would rather fry my brain with soulja boy and a side oder of brian pumper rapping than listen to this visual cyanide again
May 3rd, 2009 at 7:03 am

May 3rd, 2009 at 7:13 am

May 3rd, 2009 at 7:21 am
THIS IF TUFF. LIKE RUBEBERMAID. I SAW IT LAST NIGHT ON CINEMAX BEFORE THE MOVIE STRANGERS. REAL TALK THIS WILL BECOME THE NUMBER ONE VIDEO AND SONG IN AMERICA WITHIN A WEEK.

May 3rd, 2009 at 8:49 am
Sickest video I’ve ever seen.
It’s truly a masterpiece!!
May 3rd, 2009 at 9:48 am
EMINEM best rapper alive. Look @ his album sales. Listen to his lyrics. EM dont wear tight jeans or kiss his daddy in the mouth like “other people”. FINALLY hiphop got a face to it again. Niggaz supporting officer ross and wayne need to cut they wrist.
May 3rd, 2009 at 10:09 am
Great video and song, lyrically flawless.
ROFLMAO at people trying to tie 50 into his success. EM is back not Em and 50 is back.
May 3rd, 2009 at 10:18 am
@Superman bump ur brakes! Em is nice, this song shows his creativity, lyrical skill, and word play. But this song also shows a sick side I cant fuck with; as well as the we made you single was the corny silly shit thats wack ass hell. This dude talkin bout drnking sum1 blood, cutting off arms all type of sick shit that i cant get wit. BUT HE DEF NOT THE FACE OF HIP HOP! Hip hop originated from the hood & the streets and Em is not niether so he cant never be the face of hip hop wearing wigs & dressing up like Elvis & making videos about being a serial killer. NEWS FLASH—- NIGGAS IN THE HOOD DONT RIDE TO EM MUSIC!& we not serial killers; we hustleing & thuggin! I dont care how nice he is lyrically we dont relate with him.
May 3rd, 2009 at 10:18 am
pleaaaassee killllllllllllllllllllllllll…rosssssssssssss lmao!
hopefully he wont use the accent on Old Times sake wit Dre..best music vid ive seen in a long time
May 3rd, 2009 at 10:26 am
^^^ Superman – Hip Hop
Why you sooo mad all the time?? I like Eminem too, but you sound like the president of his fan club! What does tight jeans, Rick Ross or Lil Wayne gotta do with him?
Not to single you out or anything, but i feel this is why rap sales stay low. Every dude think they can only support one artist. Everybody wanna beef. The beef is so rare in other genres, that’s why they do stadium tours. That’s why they can use little to no promotion and still do well on the billboard charts. They put “Summer Jams” in every city. That’s just their regular tours. They don’t let ego get in the way. And neither do their fans.
The only time you hear about the verbal attacks between fans of other genres is when you deal with that teeny-bopper pop stuff. Back in the day it was ‘Nsync vs Backstreet Boys fans, now it’s Miley Cyrus vs that other lil girl…. their fans are pre-teens. Let’s grow up!!! Imagine if people ain’t beef like that and you could have a tour with all Headliners!!! Sometimes you get lucky and get someone that raps to go on tour with an R&B star, but rarely will you find two plus Rappers (not in the same crew so EM, Dre, and 50 would not count) doing a stadium tour circuit.
May 3rd, 2009 at 10:37 am
Mannn. This Video was Nice. Just what the industry needed. All ignorant people stoop making comments on race. Im a black man i give respect to any artist who be really spittn. Now to the video and song. This Shit is hot. Im excited bout dude cd. And i dont know if this is true but was that officer ricky he killed in the video? lol But nahh i seems all the all heads finnally coming back. cuz im tired of seeing these artist comeone the seen fuckn dances and nice hooks. Wheres the fuckn Substance. Thanks Eminem i got you when yo shit drop no homo lol
May 3rd, 2009 at 10:40 am
this video is gruesome and is definitely not gonna be shown on mtv and definitely not on “holier than thou” BET… but the storytelling was dope and the video was on point… storytelling is why i love hip hop… i wanna hear it as it as if i’m reading a book. i know that might be too intellectual for some of y’all under 21… i’m just being real.
as far as the video, for all those saying “it’s like a movie”…. obviously, that’s why it premiered on cinemax!!!! em needed this after that we made you crap. i hate when he makes that commercial bs just for radio play but i get it, it’s all business. he did it with every other cd too. he always has that wack @ss song from the jump and all the dumb kids buy it and play that track over and over then he’ll put out something like guilty conscience then i’ll think he can rap again. my thing is, how long can he rap about killing people and taking prescription drugs?
May 3rd, 2009 at 11:27 am
I’d bet my house Em is about to sell a milli first week!!!!!!
May 3rd, 2009 at 11:33 am
Shit is fire

May 3rd, 2009 at 12:43 pm
whats so ill bout this cat; he’s talkin bout being a serial killer, drinkin blood, & cuttin off arms! Yes he can rap but wtf is he talkin bout? This shit is all fictional & rap suppose to be base on reality; unless hes rappin for the Jefferey Dahmer’s of the world. I didnt kno serial killers like rap music. Yall can have this shit, this is exactly why i never bought an Em album b/c he raps bout the CRAZIEST shit!
May 3rd, 2009 at 12:52 pm
NOBODY CAN TOUCH EMINEM RYLICARRY,HAI!
May 3rd, 2009 at 12:54 pm
“all can have this shit, this is exactly why i never bought an Em album b/c he raps bout the CRAZIEST shit!’
OUT OF THE 70 MIRRION+ EMINEM LECORDS SORD,YOU MEAN NOTHING.

May 3rd, 2009 at 1:36 pm
wtf???? how do ppl actually love this… i mean, its not bad but its just… 2001 eminem… i feel like ive already heard this exact song from him 100 times… he sticks to the same formula and u lames eat it up. hes no different from these other wack artists. finds a formula and rapes it… he just happens to actually be able to rap lol… he needs to reinvent himself, thats why kanye is so relevant… not that hes a better rapper then em, but em must be HORRIFIED to take risks outside of his comfort zone…
May 3rd, 2009 at 2:03 pm
@X YOU ARE BRACK YES?
May 3rd, 2009 at 2:04 pm
BECAUSE IT IS USUARY THE BRACK PEEPO THAT CANT APPLECIATE A GOOD SONG,HAI

HAHA NIGGA KILL YA’SELF…GO LISTEN TO KANGAY SOMEWHERE FAGGOT
May 3rd, 2009 at 2:30 pm
Ok, I understand that everyone is not going to rock w/ Em I get it, but the HATE IS RIDICULOUS! One dude said he can’t relate to it WTF!?! That’s like saying “OH, WOLVERINE IS ABOUT MUTANTS, SO I’M NOT GOING TO WATCH IT BCUZ I CAN’T RELATE” GTFOH w/ that shit! YEah it’s left, but i’d rather some CREATIVE different shit vs. the same song and dance that EVERYBODY ELSE IS DOING. SO you’re telling me u relate more to what cats like Ross, Jeezy, Jay, etc. do? That’s str8 BULLSHIT! Realistically, Common is like the only relatiable dude in the game. @ the end of the day it’s about respecting ART for what it is.
Em keep doing your thing fuck them haters.
May 3rd, 2009 at 2:32 pm
btw, i’m BLACK
May 3rd, 2009 at 2:41 pm
he’s bout to bring back hardcore rap to the mainstream
May 3rd, 2009 at 3:09 pm
Lol at niggas saying its to violent. I guess no one watches horror movies.
He’s just painting a picture with words of a horror thriller.
I gues niggas can only paint vivid drug game picture.
I like that Em does something different and people say he can because he’s white as if black artists are not allowed. Aint his fault niggas only accept fictitious hood tales.
May 3rd, 2009 at 3:17 pm
OPLAH WINFLEY can you please learn how to speak English? Thanks. The video was dope because it provided accurate imagery for the song. I wasn’t really feeling 3AM that much till this video. Eminem was rapping in that strange voice. Eminem the face of Hip Hop? How? Because of 3AM? Settle down people. I am a big Em fan, but let’s not get carried away. Let us wait for the album to drop before we officially call Eminem God.
May 3rd, 2009 at 3:40 pm
That new voice of his is really wack as fuck….Its distracting me from the song
May 3rd, 2009 at 3:43 pm
i’m starting to think some of yall shady rec. fans are really lonely. and i think yall only root for 50 cuz he signed to shady rec. i dont see how u can watch em’s video and say 50 and em are back?
yall niggas in here talkin bout rick ross? money cant buy that kinda promotion yall faggots give rick ross everyday, every post. so rick ross was a co, now he’s a fraud. yall scream all day ricky is fake, and then say how u love em? is em real? is this what his life be bout? or because its like a movie he gets a pass? his rhymes are movies, but ross is fake? i assume most rap is fake, but em is by far the biggest faker out there, not cuz he white but because he talks about killing on a much larger scale than other artist. most artist say “i’ll shoot u” em says “i’ll mass murder everyone in sight and blow up police stations and fly away on my space ship”
em fans are actually lil wayne fans on the low, u cant respect this and hate wayne they are too similiar. only difference is em is better lyrical, but they both on the same creative mass murder drug addict shit all day yall are blind sheep and the only reason u keep bringing up wayne and ross is cuz 50 told u too. if 50 diss ur moms u would probably be like “yea that bitch is wack she dont sell no records”
May 3rd, 2009 at 4:15 pm
^^^ County of Kings got a point… people do give em a pass on what he raps about, why does everyone gotta research everyone else’s life, to see if they’re REAL or not… it’s all entertainment!!
i never looked at it that way, if you think about EM’s PSA’s in his albums he’s basically saying if you think i’m what i rap about is real then you’re stupid. People don’t mind eminem being on some fake ish but when it comes to someone else, people are quick to the “we don’t believe you, you need more people”.. good point. everyone knows that eminem is not a killer but when it comes to rick ross being a shady CO, people can’t buy that. why couldn’t rick ross have one foot in the straight life and one foot in the dirt???? i mean, i still like some eminem b/c lyrically when he wants to, he can create an interesting story and not many others can.
as far as other rappers are concerned, some said that common is relevant to most ppl’s lives, i love some common, but for all the jeezy’s, clipse, and early jay-z stuff, i woulda never known about drugs like that. sorry i’m not from the hood, i know drug users, and dealers but the day-to-day inner city or countryside stories, i don’t know that, i know how drugs go in the ‘burbs, so i appreciate the story. it’s like watching the wire, i ain’t know what baltimore was like before that.
May 3rd, 2009 at 4:34 pm
Everybody is entitled to their own perspective of what a song that epitomizes hip-hop should sound like. I just think it’s so funny when people who claim that they’re so gangster or hood can actually say that they relate to songs or rappers that talk about all the shit that they have, that you wish you could have. My favorite thing about rappers like Eminem, Lupe, Common, Talib..etc…is that they never mention how much money they have like all of the rappers that brag and shit to a fan base with a high percentage of people within it being piss poor. Cool shit.
May 3rd, 2009 at 5:11 pm
im a huge eminem fan but this song sucks and so does his first single we made you…crack a bottle is hot…he needs to stop rapping in that high pitch voice and he needs hotter beats come on dre
May 3rd, 2009 at 5:29 pm
lyrically just shitted on everyone thats putting out albums right now
that compound syllable rhyme style just blows me away
Eminem is deffinitly back and with some hardcore shit,
I mean, he always comes out with some dark shit but this is on a higher level
And he’s sticking with the whole “relapse” theme
May 3rd, 2009 at 5:31 pm
to bad the only time the video will actually get played is “3 AM” in the mourning
no pun intended
May 3rd, 2009 at 6:33 pm
Because of all of the, “shady’s back!, thank you, Em!”, and all the rest of the comments that jock alike on her, I disregarded my first impression – where I shut it down in less than 30 seconds …and gave it a second shot. After seeing this video once, there’s no reason to want to see it again …no reason to wanna hear the song again
…and like someone noted, it’s nothing I can relate to….THANK GOD!!!!
The whole concept is dead and dumb. Who wants to vibe with blackin’ out and killing people, and regaining consciousness to dead bodies and chopped up body parts???
Not I.
…Eminem’s your hero? I can’t even LOL or LMAO that. There’s nothing funny about it.
Another record about insanity and murder?
Watch what you repeat.
May 3rd, 2009 at 6:41 pm
Country of Kings–I don’t neccessarily agree with everything you wrote, but that last line was funny as hell!
May 3rd, 2009 at 7:17 pm
some serious retards posting messages in here.
so em fans post nothing but the words “em is back” and are accused of being lonely dick riders.
while those who are making the accusations write epic style novels putting across their point….lol
irony obviously aint got a place on rtny.
May 3rd, 2009 at 7:37 pm
@ if 50 diss ur moms u would probably be like “yea that bitch is wack she dont sell no records”
LOL
May 3rd, 2009 at 7:48 pm
@Da Business like I said I DONT RELATE TO SERIAL KILLING! Music is diff then movies; music is poetry & i wouldnt like poems bout senseless death! & thats not hate thats choice & preference. But hes talented.
May 3rd, 2009 at 9:13 pm
LMAO THIS WHITE BOY IS DONE. NO ONE WANTS TO HEAR THIS DUMB ASS SHIT.OH EXCEPT FOR OTHER WHITE BOYS.LMAO. NOW YOU CAN POST YOUR EM DICK SUCKING COMMENTS NOW.LMAO.FUCK THIS SERIAL KILLER ASS SHIT. SO I GUESS EM IS REALLY A MASS MURDER WITH SUICIDAL TENDENCIES NOW.LMAO.TALK ABOUT FAKE.LMAO.LOL.LOL.LOL.LOL.LOL.
Journalist Sarah Rodman argues that Eminem may have waited too long to mount his comeback, and that the country has become too fragmented to be captivated or shocked by the often controversial Slim Shady.
“Is it possible that the polarizing hip-hop star waited too long to reemerge?” Rodman writes. “That a country fragmented by politics, crisis, and technology can no longer rally around one controversial figure? With buzz for his fifth album, ‘Relapse,’ due out May 19, on simmer instead of high, could it be that Eminem is over?”
With a music industry hampered by illegal downloading, Eminem proved he is still capable of generating income, as the author notes. The Dr. Dre , and 50 Cent , assisted “Crack a Bottle” , set a digital sales record, moving up 71 slots on the Billboard Hot 100 to claim the top position in its first seven days of release.
Two more singles are scheduled for release in advance of Relapse , and Eminem will also team up with Marvel Comics character the Punisher to try and resurrect his fledgling album buzz.
May 3rd, 2009 at 9:16 pm
@94 COUNTY OF KINGS….most rap is fake and what makes a rapper fake is when they say that they do what they rap about..in inerviews rick ross goes on with his boss/drug dealer personna as if people cant see thru him…whereas people like 50 cent/ jay-z / eminem and the more real rappers are just them selves in interviews and in most cases will say they were just portraying a character it’s not really them….eminem has his slim shady persona….50 cent has admitted to writing concepts….jay-z for example made an album based on a movie…those are concepts and personas …now when it comes to wayne and rick ross, fat joe and other dilousional rappers, they actually convince themselves of what they write and then try to live it out in interviews thats why the majority of people will call those rappers fake..
the difference between em and wayne is eminem can actually rap and em puts more effort into his music which makes him more captivating
May 3rd, 2009 at 10:14 pm
@ tarhee
I hear u, btw I wasn’t trying to single u out just was randomly reading posts. Believe me it aint personal. Anyway, I got to disagree w/ u on the movies are different from music statement. Hear me out, there one in the same, one is visual and the other is musical. They both originate from a inner thought. Both paint pictures, to me the main difference is 1 is based on rhyming while the other is not. That’s just me.
@ country of kings
u have some very solid points, but the thing w/ Ross is he denied the CO thing. If he owned up to it from the start, we wouldn’t be talking about it. It’s a fact that he just kept lying about the fact. It wasn’t until 50 went in for him to come out and say it was him. That’s my only thing w/ Ross. Dudes makes great music, he’s just not real. No one is really what they talk about, but in Ross’ mind he really thinks he’s the real Rick Ross. That’s a problem.

@Da Business 1st i appreciate u givin ur opinion w/o insults. But the reason I think music is different b/c it was created by guys who were rappin bout there life and surroundings. Thats the true essences of hiphop opinion & i think rappers like Em is changing that uhh…. format to some cross over shit like singles we made u; he was dressed up like elvis, women etc… & he be rappin bout crazy crazy spaced out shit. THATS NOT HIP HOP! sorry

lol yo Country of Kings and For Real?? said some real shit..i respect ya thoughts playas
I dont particularly like THIS song because im just not into that whole dark, blackout, kill the next thing that moves type shit…but i know he’s capable of doin better so im interested in seeing what else is on the album…One of the things that concerns me with Raps like this is the percentage of crazy ass listeners who will use this as an excuse to do some of the stupidest shit..People just gotta learn to take music for just what it is…MUSIC. I dont know why people read so much into the personal lives of those who are rapping…its an art, a craft, words used to paint pictures..the more creative you are, the more different and innovative shit u can come up with to tell the story or get ur point across. Who said hip hop had to be ONE WAY??? keeping it all the same makes shit boring cuz u’ll hear the same thing over and over..how to sell drugs, what the hood is like, how many keys are goin out, how to kill a nigga, how much money u have, how much ur clothes and accessories cost, what cars u have…..u get my point lol So u have to respect the artists who changes it up from time to time and show u something different…Hip Hop isnt dead, its just Evolving…people just hate change.

Eminem just made me a bigger than of his than I already was…his mind is really on a whole other continent when it comes to creativity and rhymin…the video is priceless and the song is classic…for the mindframe it creates alone…i love it. This is why people shouldn’t mess with someone of his calibur…it serves you right when you get devoured in the end. And oh yea I don’t care how many times Ross’s name gets mentioned…he won’t sell more records from us saying it cause the majority of us ain’t go buy his shit…i bet u we’ll buy Em’s tho and he will do at least 500k the first week like someone above had said.

@tarheel
U made some valid points, but i have to disagree again. If u want to be technical, the essence or the origin of hop hop if u will in the beginning had nothin’ to do w/ rhyming. Cats like Kool Herc & Afrika Bambaataa, we’re just trying to bring the neighborhoods together to stop the violence @ the time. Really the emcee didn’t come into play until the late 70’s. It was about bringing folks together to have fun, and to relieve some stress.
Anyway, hip hop @ the heart is about self expression. From Djing to Break Dancing to Emceeing it was about expressing yourself and having fun while u did your thing.
Which brings me to my point. Like i mention earlier Em expresses himself while he’s having fun. Yeah he’s not from the hood, but that doesn’t mean it’s not hip hop. It’s hip hop from his perspective. Yes it’s not (what some may say) “traditional hip hop”, neither is Outkast but it is still hip hop.
IMO(the truth tho) lol
Outside of Andre 3k and Nas
nobody is seeing this kid on the mic( i’ll throw Jay in there but he’s not as creative as the others mention)
