"I used to, get punked and bullied on my block
til I cut a kitten's head off and stuck it in this kid's mailbox"
Ok, Eminem is crazy...well, back then his lyrics were fuckin ill. And, it sold, he was brilliant. I mean, let's face it...you say this and try to get away with it...
"So I just, throw up a middle finger and let it linger
longer than the rumor that I was stickin it to ChristinaCause if I ever stuck it to any singer in showbiz
it'd be Jennifer Lopez, and Puffy you know this!"
hahahah.
Analyzing this song further, you can really feel the pain and conviction in his voice when he spits. He'll tell a story and build it up, touch on your emotions a bit, builds vision.... then he stops, gets you to laugh (comic relief), and ends his shit. It's a real compelling drama, almost Shakespearian, wouldn't you agree?
There are definitely a lot of songs that have these dramatic stages, but none that can deliver so hypnotically. He's on beat, in rhythm, and lacing up words that shouldn't go together, but now do.
Just my thoughts for the night.
