7:50 a group called “Insane Clown Poss” made a diss track towards Em called Slim anus. The way he flipped it was dope. 1 line was enough, he didn’t need more than that.
Oh, believe me.... he caught his fair share of lbtq- rage! They demonstrated against him and everything. He answered them with performing at the Grammys with Elton John! 😂😂😂
10:57 True the internet wasnt buzzing like today & we didnt have many cancel cultures but Em caught hell for this album. There was demonstration by the GLAAD group outside with picket signs and calling for his head A group actually bought tonnes of his CDs only to run it over with vehicles to show their disdain The media flamed him He was banned from radio play Got banned from MTV He almost got banned from performing in canada Trust me stevie, he caught hell fire for this album and the funny thing is it is his highest selling album, over 30million sold and it is the biggest rap album debut of all times 1.7million first week
So around 9:00 youll notice that even though it’s the uncut version of the song there’s almost an entire bar that has been silenced out. That particular bar was him saying that stuff about his mom’s lawyer so that’s why they dropped it out. The old Eminem was so hard-core that even his unedited shit was still edited. lol
The whole part about the guys in Lee Nails and the Slim Anus references r Em talking about the Insane Clown Posse after they released a track called Slim Anus dissing Em. Great reaction Stevie!
The fact that he actually caught hell for this album back then, and still went on to sell over 30 million lol they were after his head when he dropped this album and yet it's one of his best albums ever.
My favorite track since day 1 Marshall Mathers 😎🇿🇦,eminem ranked 3rd here. I am still searching for African American guys such as LJ "nobody listens to eminem in the hood"😂😂
