D12 “40 Oz.” REACTION
Comments (20)
I’m an Indigenous Canadian, and I’ve been told a few times that I change how I talk depending on who I’m talking to. The first time, I learned there was a term for it - code switching. This is the same as what you referred to as programming. 😄
Program… code… I’m surprised Eminem doesn’t have a rhyme scheme about that tbh haha. I’ve been guilty of it in the past too brother, it’s probably just part of growing up and navigating who you were, who you are and who you wanna be 💪
Love all the D12 reactions! I agree he sounds different with the boys lol
Em was crazy young in the game at this time....and grew up in the hood in that environment....as I see others have said. Everyone evolves, and certainly the influence of his daughters as he aged made him want to be a lot less hood, and a lot more good Dad. Glad you enjoyed....no bars to break down....just go punch the bag a few times 😂. Loving the journey!!!
people lose accents and gain them based on who theyre around over time and today he still has 1 just not as strong but obv he got it from growing up in 8 mile and it slowly changed with his surroundings over time when he left like 25 years ago... idk if u know this but people arent born with accents... and ye he dressed different too but he doesnt go to battles anymore where hes like the only white person there, but ye u can see how it happened, plus hes doing it more for the flow on this song with the door and four cause he dont got many songs like this like talkin gangster
Hey I completely get it! Environments do change a person, it’s happened to me and I’ve seen it happen to others. I just don’t like that when I point it out, people either act like I’m hating on him or they pretend the change never happened. Like I totally get why Stern said what he said about Em during that interview because the way he was speaking felt forced, like it did in this track. I’m glad he finally found his voice and stopped being somebody he wasn’t. I used to talk like a roadman as a kid and teenager but I became conscious of it and outgrew it. I’m not hating on him I’m just looking for common ground 🤝
First time hearing this too! It’s awesome and bittersweet that Proof commonly gets the last verse. Em truly does feel like just “another member of the group” while Proof seems like the heavy hitter, which is funny given what Em becomes with time
Proof and Kuniva (I think his name is?) seem like the heavy hitters for sure! Eminem could go lyrically deep on these tracks but I like that this is his outlet for that vibe. Just him with his homies spitting stupid shit to make each other laugh!
Atta boy. Kickoff freestyle nexty
Hey Teddy what are you going to do about Eminem's album southpaw which she did for the movie it's the soundtrack album. Because that came out 2 years before Revival.
Damn I forgot how much of a bop this was. Teddy, when you do Phenomenal, I'd highly recommend doing the lyric video and not the official video. It's like 7 minutes and the pauses in it kill the flow of the track. Can't wait for that and No Kings. You're gonna love both of them
I got the lyric video lined up after the last comment don’t worry, tomorrow gonna be a good day!
Can’t wait for how come. You will like the content of it I think.
That’s next on the dirty dozen side of things! 🔥
Bizarre must of been a hell of a friend to keep getting verses lmao
I’m sayingggg 😂 His flow is very basic but he’s there for vibes only every time haha gotta rate the consistency if nothing else!
Teased meeeee 😂😂😂 still can’t wait to watch when I’m home
Tick tok the count down to home has begun friend.
Cheeky. You meant it when you said it’s gonna be a good weekend.
Tomorrow night will be even better! I’m talking Live Patreon Premiere of “Kings Never Die, Phenomenal & Guts Over Fear” at 7pm type better 🍿👀
