I saw your original reaction, and thought it was fate that you chose this song that directly spoke to your thoughts at the time. Now to see you watch it again?!

2024-06-17 00:46:41 +0000 UTCI think the reason so many black folks call you the word that Scru called you is because it's seems as if you go out of your way to say how wrong a black statement is on a topic & it truly seems like you champion all those who criticize how black folks feel & it comes off as if your telling black folks that feel a way that is contrary to how you feel that they are wrong. You can't just say how you think & feel is correct & everybody who doesn't think like you is wrong You say how you changed so much in 2 years & that is the 2 years you have spent deep diving into this whole RED PILL shit, So it is content that truly is an Echo Chamber & it seems like you seen that you can get alot of eyes on your content if you turn into a Andrew Tate/Sneako/fresh & fit creation & now your entire personality is built off of that, granted we only see you online but I find myself cringing at some of your content. I'd never tell anyone how to think feel or live but it seems like that's your whole KNIGHT NATION motto now. I used to be proud to be apart of KNIGHT NATION but now I don't want somebody to see some of your takes & think I rock with that. I am a patron for the music & music alone.

2023-04-01 18:08:38 +0000 UTCIt’s easy to forget he wrote this shit 3 years before George Floyd. In your personal time l, Stevie, check out Royce’s “Perspective” skit. It’s a conversation he and Em had and Em went on this soap box story with his understand of the perspective that hit so hard, Royce asked if he could say it again with a beat to use as a skit. And you know how woke Royce is with this stuff but em has no pandering he really sees the fucked up stuff and calls a spade a spade.

2023-01-16 18:03:22 +0000 UTCIt's Em's perspective from where he grew up, and what he saw living in a black neighborhood. Just because your opinion has changed doesn't make the song less valid. This was way before everything else blew up with BLM. Eminem definitely doesn't pander.

2023-01-12 12:26:29 +0000 UTCWell said! He grew up around what he's expressed, like poverty, disadvantage, a racial divide etc. And most likely lived through experiences involving some police harassing those close to him based on the reasons he talks about. Plus he did this song BEFORE the social media opinions since George Floyd.

2022-11-23 10:44:42 +0000 UTCYou mentioned that there is fucked shit in every field like the medical field, etc. Those are hard to compare do to the fact that professions like that require insurance if you make mistake and you are accountable for your actions, like losing your job or license. However, for cops it's a different story. Most of the time they protect the officer in question. If they get sued the cop tried in a different type of court than you or I (different and lighter punishments), allowed to lie on the stand, and if found guilty the money is paid for by our taxes. The cop is usually allowed to resign instead of being fired and move to different town to get rehired, they are allowed to keep their pension too. So, our taxes pay for their high salaries and our taxes pay for their judgments. There really is no punishment unless it's a high-profile incident. That's not really the major issue though, it's all the small injustices that happen all the time with no repercussions. People exercising their rights and getting arrested, or people being arrested "because I say so." And of course! Other cops letting the rogue cop do as they please and supporting them. This is the biggest issue to me. Here is a playlist so you can see what I mean: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLK9hVxAkUaev5L_oIUnzgGhstHJTJ-dJT

2022-11-22 15:37:20 +0000 UTCStevie I I just wanna commend you on how brave it is to take such a scrutinizing look at oneself, to see how far you’ve come. It takes a man of integrity, introspection, retrospection, a willingness to truly want to continue learning, growing, developing personally, mentally, emotionally, and actually to be able to just analyze oneself and say “fuck I was ignorant, I am so thankful I’m not where I once was”, but you had to go to that place to get to the place you are at right now, so you got to be thankful for once having had that perspective, because, without once, having had that perspective, you couldn’t have the perspective you have now, of so much growth. You’re doing an amazing job my brother, keep doing what you’re doing. I’m here for it. 💪🏽🙏🏽 🤴🏾

2022-11-22 00:52:53 +0000 UTCIt's not Em's perspective but details the racial injustice from a racist white cop and a black person's perspective. It was before the BLM movement started going crazy, before affirmative action and other shit we see now. I agree it's not healthy perspectives for an artist like Em to fuel yet at the same time he got so shitted on for this song so obviously it didn't resonate well with most people. And it was this song that made Budden go off saying it's one of the worst record he's ever heard.

2022-11-22 00:22:51 +0000 UTCI agree that people taking this out of context and applying it to all cops is extremely damaging. It reminds me of Kendrick’s “Blacker the Berry” where he got a ton of shit for saying “…Why did I weep for Trayvon Martin in the street when gangbangin made me kill a n**** blacker than me—Hypocrite”. Many people angrily said “Speak for your fucking self” because they felt like Kendrick was saying it from every black man’s perspective. Kendrick responded essentially with “I am speaking for myself and giving people with similar views a voice; I’m not telling you to think like me.” I think this song executes the same thought process in that he was able to successfully communicate the perspective from 8 Mile of the black people he loves. I think he would agree with you on the national issues because of the specific points he made about unnecessary killings and a specific fearful perspective of cops who don’t understand the lives of the people they’re told to protect. I respect him tremendously for this execution, and I think condemning him for it follows the same vein of people saying he shouldn’t rap about killing his mom because it will make other people want to kill their moms. He just wants to speak the truth about himself and his loved ones, and he did so in a way few can match.

2022-11-21 20:33:05 +0000 UTCI know it’s hard to do for this song but id also love to see just the rap aspect broken down because the schemes, especially in the second half of the song are fire 🔥

2022-11-21 18:30:25 +0000 UTCYou should do a 3.0 in 2.5 years and see how much you’ve improved again. I’ll bet you’ll have your delivery mastered
