The funniest part is that the Eminem song is about how Slim Shady is outdated and flaccidly edgy. Gen X taking the song seriously is entirely missing the joke.
And LIMC for thinking it was meant to be edgy
Does anyone in X actually listen to him tho? Really?
Ngl I felt like that was the case when I was listening to the lyrics.
It's just 2004 slim shady trying to get 2024 Marshall Mathers canceled, which he can't really do, cause 2004 slim shady is outta touch
"URGONNACANCLEMEBRA GNZMBRUH" no way a song with that line in it is serious

Don’t be rash, because one day that’ll be you too!

Bruh true words. I feel for the younger gens these days. Wildly different times, even to 20-30 years ago.
Nothing but love, eh
Actually the microsecond you turn 18, all the embarrassing cringy stuff you did as a child gets deleted from your brain’s files instantaneously, or it’s renamed to beloved childhood memories that newer gens will never experience (boomers still hated it). LOOK GUYS. POOP. BUTT. PEAK HUMOR.

Why like Eminem when you have any rappers better than him. Also Eminem is the no 1 worst rapper of all time and all these Eminem stans are still listening to garbage like these and praising him like Kai Cenat if he was happy after Tyla accepted his date in an alternative universe. They also can’t criticism when someone talks trash about him. The thing is, Eminem can’t rap good, every single or album he’s dropped are trash and yet they still listen to this garbage everyday. Eminem needs to retire immediately because this guy keeps on dropping corny, unfunny, unhinged, and repetitive bars and he refuses to evolve in every album which makes him the #1 worst rapper of all time

your gonna cancel me yeah? jenzimibra
Gen x fighting air (R.I.P. air)

That song shouldn't even be discussed as a standalone. The whole album tells a story.. well an inner conflict rather.
And the lyrics in it can be interpreted as a.. well.. loo loo moment. (had to censor myself here cause YT deleted the original comment)
The fact these people take it at face value and started this cringe tiktok movement over it.. sigh..

Gen X really thought Gen Z is hating on Eminem
And it’s crazy cuz Eminem wasn’t even hating on Gen Z, Im pretty damn sure the situation set up is all for the album’s story that he’s tryna make, none of it is his real interpretation of gen z I don’t think

You misunderstood the lyrcs. "When are you gonna realize that we fucking need eachother" as in slim telling eminem to go back to being an addict refering to the way people online usually tell him that he made better music while being addict than sober.
Like Ren's Hi Ren
Pretty crushing. When you out of it, you ain't afraid to make crazy music, but it fucks wit ur life outside of it. Poor guy can't win :(
@@franciasii2435 and then people come and take those feelings and projects them on their self masturbatory posts. they are constantly making a zoolander face lol
Pov: yeat
no Em isn't that down bad. It just meant that he needs Slim's persona and craziness to stay relevant, which in todays world will get him cancelled no doubt. People always compare his latest work to his old days, which he hates. Slim Shady was his worst phase of life and he only made him to vent out his anger without looking bad but people liked this. As he said, "there is Slim Shady in all of us", which shows that people like Slim Shady because deep down they also had the same feeling as him.
Gen X: “They’re trying to cancel Eminem 😡”
Gen Z: “Why does Eminem think we wanna cancel him? He’s so washed 😂”
Eminem: “Did none of you listen to the fucking album?”
IKR SLIM SHADY IS TALKING TO EMINEM ITS LIKE at first slim shady makes eminem drink some kind of liquid then eminem asks "what are you doing" slim responds with "trying to get us cancelled" the whole point of the album is getting rid of his slim shady alter ego like people get so offened they dont even think of it logically
Calling any generation cringe is cringe in itself. People are cringe, not generations.
Generations are definetly cringe since they show tendencies
W
THIS
Exactly, just like the people who say Gen Alpha is cringe and awkward. Just because a loud minority acts stupid doesn't mean the rest are bad.
To be cringe is to be human
As gen z and an Eminem fan, y'all kinda missed the point, it was a convo between old eminem(slim shady) and the new eminem
To be fair Eminem himself outside of music has talked about how people are trying to cancel him hell I believe he has a song like that on Mitbmb so it's not hard to see why people are confused since em himself seems to think these things
@@jamalwalker04Eminem never once said that people are trying to cancel him 😂 why you putting words in his mouth? He barely even does interviews bro… not only that in MTBMB he never once mentions it. He mentions that legend like him with longevity never get their credit but that’s it.
Eminem literally turned down a MV idea from Jesse Wellens (form Prank vs Prank) where he pitched this idea about Eminem slaughtering TikTokers who are tryna “cancel him”, because in his own words cancel culture doesn’t exist. He knows that it’s not that deep.
Comparing old and new eminem is just sad. He was at his best and most edgy and hilarious early on, when he was still slim shady to around the time he first started going by Eminem. He started getting pretentious and bland after that.
What happened to “Wanna see me stick Nine Inch Nails through each one of my eyelids?” and "Hotter then a set of twin babies in a Mercedes Benz, with the windows up, when the temp goes up to the mid 80's."
Yeah, everyone understood that, it’s like the album sucks, it’s just not that good
I think people got that (including the video), but the lyricism on display here is still not very good. Hence, why we're laughing at the Gen-Z line
Its funnier to consider the fact that the point of eminem’s album is to kill off this “edgy, cringe” version of himself, not because he does anything to get him in trouble but because he’s outdated, immature, and no longer had the effect he used to have.
Eminem literally makes fun of the same behavior that these TikTok users in gen X are praising him for
It is shocking that Eminem’s fucking parody of out of touch made out of touch people cheer for him 😭😭
Nobody from gen z talks shit about Em . Its usually boomers or other X-ers themselves
We literally mention him just when we talk about him because he's on the news or smth. Never heard him pop up in any conversation otherwise
A lot of the "cancelling" is just people criticizing Eminem's music; he's been known to not take criticism all too well in the past.
Gen X people are re&ar&ed it's crazy

@@donaldbaird7849 what? Eminem didnt have negative feedbacks since Dre signed him in the beginning but then one time on his album "Recovery" hos producer told him that his flow and verse felt a bit off and at first he disagreed but then when he went home, he listened to the song 30 TIMES, then called the producer and told him that he agrees with his criticism and changed the song.
LMAO, seeing people the same age as my parents being so cringe is very weird, I can't imagine my parents being this out of touch
Also, my parents aren't as hard headed when it comes to this stuff. They barely now the current generation and act like it and ask me questions

As a Gen Z (17yo) who enjoys a variety of music genres, Eminem wasn't actually meaning the goofy lines he said. His latest album, The Death of Slim Shady, is a concept album where Slim Shady (Eminem's "savage" alter ego from 2002) and Eminem (present day) battles each other.
There are many interpretations and theories about this album (my favourite being Eminem battling his troubled life because of drugs), but one thing for sure is that Slim Shady is trying to get them cancelled in a rather abrupt yet flat way (such as the insanely goofy line "Jenzimibra?") It sort of works as a concept and it is meant to be a concept, nothing more or less.
The execution, as always, can be cut and taken out of context and misunderstood quite easily. For instance, the song where he said "Jenzimibra" is only 40 secs but listening to it whole makes everything much clearer. Despite all of these wackiness, no one actually cares in the end of the day.
Exactly! Thank you 🙌

You completely missed the whole point. *Trouble* is not a song, it’s actually a skit. That’s NOT Eminem saying “Gen-Z me bruh” but in fact his alter ego Slim Shady saying it in a mocking, playful sarcastic way towards Eminem since he has him all tied up. It’s also Slim Shady referencing that whole Gen-Z canceling Eminem thing purposely, to poke fun at it. The whole album is a concept.
It’s annoying to see how many times I’ve seen people take it outta context as if that’s Eminem genuinely saying it seriously…
Eminem has gotten pretty goddamn mad over petty shit, so I ain’t buying that he didn’t say this with his chest. He’s always been the guy “with no filter” and proud of it. He wouldn’t puss out behind “ohhh it’s just a skit you guys”
Yeah, the channel is about teaching people stuff, but this guy is not even doing the bare minimum of reading and comprehending the lyrics he is trying to use in the video.

@@Werewolf.with.Internet.Access
What? Dude did you even listen to the skit itself or album in general? It doesn’t take a genius to understand that he’s obviously playing a character (Slim Shady) like back in the day. That’s the whole concept of the album. It’s *Slim Shady vs Eminem* not whatever biased assumption you have of him.
Eminem's song saying "we need each other" was not even Eminem talking to a generation. It was Slim Shady telling Eminem that they need each other.
All generations are exposing themselves to be equally dumb.
People have thought the former? Man wtf 😭
What's the point of creating this edgy "alter ego" with zero humanity and regards to common sense if not to express your most derange and gross ideas/views? I think it's exactly what's Eminem doing. Im not counting all the serous fucked up crimes he mentioned in his songs Slim would commit, Marshall is obviously too pussy to do any of that even if he wanted. He's just hiding behind this mask of character and "album concept" to spread his sick thoughts that not a single normal person would deem as acceptable. Plus he thinks it makes him appear intimidating which is the most hilarious part
I really pity him and what he had to go through in his youth, but it seems these obstacles only made him a worse person it seems. His age also hasn't been very kind to the old man, he's clearly going through it.
@@raccoonchildLIMC even thinks so.

It definitely feels like engagement bait. I'm sure plenty of Gen Xers bought his latest album out of "generational solidarity" or some such nonsense lol
It’s extremely sad when people who are aging get angry and jealous at a younger generation for no apparent reason. You’re just making us look silly. And yes, I’m gen x.
I'm pretty sure they're misinterpreting the lyrics since most of the people who've tried canceling him are older than him or are from his own generation.
I doubt Em gives two shits if some teenage girl is whining about him on Tik Tok.
I don't get how you could miss the point of Eminem's album that badly just to circlejerk lmao.

My dad introduced me to Eminem and I genuinely liked his work. Over time I realized it wasn’t really that crazy, there’s way edgier stuff out there. Still, I liked some of the songs, so it all worked out.
I think what everyone’s forgetting though is that the whole “gen z cancelling” angle is not from Eminem’s actual opinion or anything, it’s just the story for what’s happening in the album. I think people oughta actually give it a listen and learn that Eminem isn’t being weird here, that’s just what’s happening in the story he’s set up in the album.
I’m surprised so many people from both generations see this as some actual act of war or some shit and it’s legit a fascinating case of not listening to the damn story, what’s the term, “media literacy?” I hate the term but I think it applies here.
I've been saying it in this comment section but Gen X doesn't get that Eminem's making fun of them and Gen Z doesn't get that Eminem's agreeing with them
People be looking WAY to deeply into songs sometimes and STILL GET IT WRONG 💀💀💀😭😭😭
You don’t need to be edgy to make good music, and Eminem at his edgiest was crazy lol
EXACTLY thank you! 🙏 It’s actually Slim Shady saying that, not Eminem lol
Mind I remind y'all that Eminem being edgy was something different compared to now? Now what he says may be seen as cringe, but back then it was gold. Y'all keep using modern day standard to judge everything and it's no surprise so much shit gets canceled
A large amount of Eminems fan base are gen z,we have listened to his old songs this is not something new to us 😭 who the heck is cancelling him 😭
This fight is NOT generational. It's just TikTok users whining at each other on their free time
Recently I noticed that pretty much all meme culture and half the internet is just labeling one thing as "cool" and the other as "bad".
I mean think about it, most memes are just that : the drake format, wojacks, the whole sigma vs beta discussion, gen z feeling nostalgic for a time they didn't live in and hating on gen alph, noob vs pro vs hacker, etc.

Get better taste in rappers
So.....that eminem lyric was just..out of fucking context.
EM DID cook, once you read the rest of the goddamn lyrics. The whole album is about Eminem burying his past immature persona of Slim Shady. Slim Shady, the rapper to good to be cancelled, who could say Fuck, Shit, Piss, Midget, F*ggot, pretty much every derogatory slur under the sun minus the n-word itself.
The album is Eminem literally killing that former version of himself to realize his grown persona as Marshall Mathers in full. Marshall Mathers is is still a rapper, but he's also a father, a grandfather, an inspiration to quitting alcoholics, and most importantly, a sober person.
I get it, lessons in meme culture are short with tiny little dives of information instead of any research, but still, taking literally one Eminem verse as your talking point is just as cringe as the X'ers who did it.
They really not like us
But seriously, Eminem's album is a good example of how dangerous it can be to take things out of context considering that just listening to a song and not the entire album messes things up
tbh the entire album of context does not save that song.
What a lot of people miss because they didn't even listen to the Eminem's new album is it's a concept album. Even though he criticises the Gen Z for the cancel culture on his songs, him getting cancelled, police and protestors lining up on his house etc. are all part of that story which ends with Eminem calling out Slim Shady for being mentally 13 and immature and so on. So he just ends that character, I don't think he thinks everyone is trying to cancel him or sth. These clips are cringe tho
To be fair we can't expect people (from any generation) with stage 5 TikTok brainrot to even begin to grasp what a concept album is supposed to be

At this point I think that Eminem fans and Eminem haters (as well as people that generally dont listen to him) both did not understand at all what that album was about. Its sad really
This.
Yep. It's not about getting cancelled, it's about Eminem's relationship between Marshal and Slim Shady.
"Everybody wants to discuss me, but it's just me I'm just obscene."
Thats the saddest part. Some eminem fans think it's him "fighting the gen z woke mob" and the haters think it's him "punching clouds". Meanwhile none of that was the point of the album.
@@TamsCake I feel like the reception and misconception from both sides kinda helps prove the albums points. Gen z sees someone, who they think is trying hard to get attention by being offensive, and they think it's cringe, which is the point of the album. Then you see Gen x who thinks Eminem was legitimately trying to cancel himself, not understanding the satire, and they come off as cringe, which is what Eminem was trying to point out
1:43 Hilariously that's not what ge was saying at all
As a Gen Z myself, this bickering is some of the most pointless but funny stuff I've ever heard.
Also the line referenced here kind of needs some context... Eminem in the album was mocking slim shady ( The old edgy cool kid rapper ), and the Gen Z me bruh line is part of the back and forth between the 2. It genuinely is some clever lyrical work though.
1:18
Also, call me crazy, but a song about violently stabbing your wife while screaming "BLEEED", or locking your pregnant partner into a car trunk and driving off a cliff.... feels pretty edgy, even for 2024
Yeah that was a completely braindead thing to say, I feel like he didn't know what he was talking about in regards to Eminem at all, but the rest of video is valid.
@@Kango234what was the braindead about it?
I never liked the idea of using generation titles as a means of separation. Yeah we need some sort of differential to tell who comes from what era but we're all living through this bullshit together. We all need to stop trying to point fingers and just get over it. This is how the corporate powers win people, they make us fight one another instead of them.
I mean, the funny thing about generational generalizations/categories is that they were made for easier marketing, trying to assess what they'd buy as they grow older.
So this was always the exact purpose of this alpha, z, millineial, x, boomer nonsense.

To be fair, the point of the Eminem's album is to show how cringe it is how, that's why Slim Shady had to die
Slim shady was peak
No, that wasnt the point
At the end of the album it gets established that slim and em are always gonna be one and the same, as suggested by the ending of GC2 and the loop theory around the album
At this point they'll even somehow find a way to cancel LIMC
“LIMC said x is a bad letter”
GEN-ALPHA IS TRYING TO DO WHAT??? CANCEL LIMC???
@@crowb4rLil bro did not watch the video
limc my balls
1:34 I never thought I would ever here this guy's laugh
I’m Gen Z and honestly Slims new album slaps, straight up got the vinyl.
Honestly at this rate.. reddit/twitter/ etc = gen z / melenials.. it doesn’t really mean any age or real generation.. it’s just attacking terminally online people.. and those are any age..
And yes.. new album slaps very hard
@@npcimknot958 tiktok brain rot effects everyone.
It's ironic that the guy in the beginning signed love in ASL at 0:06 lmao.
Bro you took what Eminem said outta context just like the gen-xers did 🤦♂️ I thought you was all about providing information?? yet you couldn’t do the bare minimum to explain that it wasn’t Eminem saying this but actually slim shady instead in a sarcastic way smh
Facts
Honestly, even though it's kinda stupid, I find the concept of inter-generational battle royale both hilarious and entertaining. It's like a big tournament of which generation can be simultaneously the most superior and the most put-upon of all of them. I say let them fight.
The fight is over, gen x and boomer won. Millennials gen z and gen alpha lost.
The old people had cheap college, better wages, more purchasing power, more affordable homes, less taxes, more social security, less consequences of global warming, were able to invest in companies like google Microsoft, and Amazon 20 years ago, and will not have to pay for a social security that they will not even be able to receive if they eventually retire.
Thanks boomers and gen x. You really set us up for success.
@@enolopanr9820I’m sure given the chance we’ll probably screw something up for the later generations, just the natural cycle of things. But in the grand scheme of a century or two it’ll look as if humanity was always going forward and quality of life steadily raising.
Or… I could be on massive cope but not like I’ll be around long enough to see my theory proven right or wrong.
@@enolopanr9820No, Gen X and Boomers didn’t create Microsoft or Google. The capitalist system did. Yous will do anything but blame the actual system
Gen X mfs when I introduce them to the average chat on discord between friends
:0
I love how both Gen x and Gen z completely missed the point of the album 😂
Gen X: "They're gonna cancel Eminem! They are so offended by his new album!"
Gen Z: *literally minding their own business and more preoccupied with other stuff rather than whatever Eminem just dropped* "... y'all realize you're sounding exactly the same way you think we sound like right?"
Gen X'ers think it's about getting cancelled we have to save him!!! (it's actually about Eminem's relationship between Marshall and Slim Shady).
The thing about trouble is, its a skit. It is 2004 slim shady using 2004 cancel culture knowledge to try and cancel 2024 eminem. That wasn't the point of the song, to try and get cancelled, just to illustrate better the concept of his album.
It's like ???? what are they going to do? "Gen X has been activated" to do what????
Be cringe and annoying for like a week
@@DoggoWoggo453that’s actually pretty horrifying
I just want peace and quiet 😪
Generational beef is useful
It shows us that it could always be worse
Eminem just can't compete with late 2000's early 2010's CoD lobbies.
Red and black as their base color? 💀 That ain't gonna end well if the x lines move.
oh fuck.
By the thumbnail I thought it was the confederate flag.
uh? why?
Eminem’s new album isn’t supposed to be taken seriously. ESPECIALLY in the songs where he’s rapping as “Slim Shady.” The fact that some genX folk are taking this piece of work like it’s gospel is concerning 😅
They really think "Gen Z here they come now, bout to unload rounds, PRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRONOUNS" is real
“Im just playing Diddy, you know I love you” ~Marshal Mathers
lmao the song is a conversation between eminem and his alter ego and the "we need each other" is refering to eminem's success in his earlier days, maybe before making fun of an album listen to it first 🔥🔥🔥
1:29 nah bro Slim said that, not Em.
This reminds me of the story about Kronos being afraid that his children would usurp him, so he tried to eat them all. It's not the same as the story, but good golly I love when life starts reflecting Greek mythology.
I think the funniest thing about this is that that album is a concept album and half the point is that Old Eminem is kind of cringe, he was sick of some of his fans asking him to bring back the "old Slim shady shit" and the point is that all the "edgy shit" that made him unique back in the day is just lame, it's not anti-establishment to be crass and frank anymore, it's just shitty now.( I think he literally says as much to himself on guilty conscious 2) It's a ok album with some good features, the concept was fundamentally flawed though, as some of his fans were bound to miss the point.
I don't think a concept is flawed just because a good percentage of people is so incurably dumb they won't get it no matter how obvious you make it. We're not responsible for other people's absolute lack of media literacy.
The album wasn't perfect but the concept is not to blame. Just look at how even the most straightforward posts on social media get misinterpreted and hated on lol.
The album was great!
Honestly gen war is stupid and not needed.
There are already enough REAL WARS, we dont need this stupid gen squabble.
I’m more concerned that people who aren’t boomer still do patriarchy and the sexism and misogyny that come with it and try to enforce that Andrew Tate is another trash dude who was taught to be certain way by a mess up system just he more in everyone face about it
I love watching LIMC chuckle as he reads the eminem lyrics
Why does Gen X face paint look like a competitive Valorant team
I genuinely thought it was the confederate flag for a second
Gen X's face paint looks like they're about to cheer their team at the Superbowl or something.
