What was your first impression of the track? Did it meet/pass your expectations?
Yeah Em slayed that shit, and there's so much you guys didn't catch, i suggest you watching knox hill's breakdown of the song
track WAS LEGENDARY hip hop needed this
Its impossible to meet what u expect cuz this was long coming, but it about met them to me, i like it, i wont say it passed them lol
My first impression was 'not again with the flow switch up and fast rapping'. Kinda tired of it and thought it wasn't a good fit for a Nas track. But it's grown on me 😁
Exceeded expectations plus they made it so nobody can compare they made this together not against each other
Em's not ignoring the beat. He's actually doing a polyrhythm. For example, imagine doing a 3 beat pattern over 4 beat bars. In this scenario, the patterns would match up every 12 beats. The 3 beat pattern would sound out of sync (to the average ear), but it's not actually when our brains figure out that it can count both patterns at the same time. This is the way many drummers think, and being that Em makes beats, it's easy to see these concepts laid out visually on the computer. He's playing chess with rhythms, while the average listener is used to hearing checkers.
I delve in and out of the ability to write in polyrhythm, as in being able to pinpoint syllables to the parts of the beats I want to so I can flow properly. But I struggle to do this passively any ideas on how to be able to constantly do it.
major fax!
That was an amazing observation!! Love it
Goated comment!
Damn ❤
When he spits " R.I.P. out to DMX, Stezo, E and Nipsey , Ecstasy and Prince Markie Dee, MF DOOM,"
He is LITERALLY spelling out EPMD : E(cstasy) P(rince) M(arkie) D(ee)
Em is on a whole nother level, i'm tryna tell yall 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
BRUH.........😮
Guarantee this guy would love to tell you some long story about Aesop Rock and Shakespeare.
I didn’t even notice that. Great catch. No way it was a coincidence like some people have tried to say.
DAAAAAAAMNNNNN
bruh wtf!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The Godfather literally died of a heart attack in his garden with his grandchildren playing, he meant it literally lol...
That was the explanation for me
I agree with your point about Em having an acapella towards the end. The content, however, was pure fire.
Em sends his entire verse to Nas. BUT Nas had every opportunity to extend his verse but chose not to for some reason.
Big Sean even said that you can't even cut an Em verse because its so meshed together with the production, you change a tiny thing and it messes up the whole scheme.
I hope Nas & Em make more music where they go back and forth.
Idk why they didnt honestly. At their age rn they should be much wiser and all that.
No , Em would just extend it like the pathetic man he is and it would be a 7 minute back and forth track
@@gkay8889 He did that with Busta Rhymes and Busta ate him alive still lol
@@gkay8889 😂😂 why u do my white boy dirty like that.
changing verses once you get a feature back is considered rude in rap
The garden bar at the beginning refers to the end of the movie godfather. He dies in his garden with his grandson there with him. So he wants to go out like that not on the block.
Nas Raps with hunger and energy on this album imo. It's less laid back than KD 1. Love it 🔥🔥🔥
This is so better and last one was already good
Nas always elegant, poetic and heavy with real life content
Always.
Nas will always be Top 5, but Eminem's Legendary Iconic status will always remain steadfast in HipHop, I don't care what anybody says. Eminem said 'RIP DMX'. That's my Dog for Life; Long Live DMX a LEGENDARY ICON.
Nas spazzed on this album frfr. Haven't heard him like this in mad long. He was floating on the beats like crazy. His cadence, flow, rhymes had passion. damn lol 👑
All facts
💯👍🏾
Walking all over the beat, putting my feet on the stars
How can someone hate Ems verse I love how we paid respect to DMX that was dope like I said the whole song is great
@@mateonelson3862 his flows are too over the top , this fast flow doesn’t automatically mean its good , only the last flow was impressive
Plus yeah , his content is a lot less lyrical and charismatic no matter how much he rhymes
Eminem was trash on this Nas bodied Eminem
The goat get always seriously hated before he dies.
Cause it didn't fit the song tbh
@@chaTzon and in nas party they were ppl bumping the fuck out em verse so this so called fan of nas hating on em is laughable cause they fav rapper respects him...em will always get hated on no matter what dude switch up his flow hella the schemes were flowless and they want to call it trash and rapity
He's rapping on beat & when on the flow /beat switch he starts rapping inside the pocket. It ain't easy to do period, but to make sense & have the bars connect is dope af
Nas gave Em the alley-oop, and Em did what he was supposed to do with it. Greatness. Period.
obv em killed it , thats a given but Nas is incredibly slept on ; his last few bar in his verse was COLD AS FUCK ; that machiavelli /hiphop scheme was crazy , dude was so confident that he let Em go last ; and i still remember Nas's bars , that says enough
This song is so damn HARD. Nas Bodied & that switch into Ems verse...smfh CLEAN. I was hype af. I love this shit. This whole track is amazing
sorry but EM bodied NAS and the beat.
@@SuperHns way longer verse but yea I def enjoyed EM on this
@It was written true. I consider EM Pac Big Pun Big L Guru NAS Dre Snoop Etc in the goat league though
@It was written EM is the most hated one if you don't respect his talent and legacy. I agree his music is also not always my taste but. He a goat too. If you say he isn't you're simply a hater
@It was written exactly the music is subjective. But his legacy is there in written gold and statistics. So if you don't say he is up there you just a fucking hater. Now get out of my notifications
EPMD back AND forth was DOPE, and Nas 2nd Verse and the 2nd half of Em's verse was PURE was NEXT level 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥!!!
Eminem made a beat for Nas back in the day but they never did a actual song together this the first time
Glad we actually got them on a track!
@@VibeVilla that's big facts
“The cross “ produced by Eminem
Well there is actually a track called "Topless" where they both featured on but its not a NAS track. Its not as dope as this but its smooth.
@@LawrenceTurnerMUSiC not really, Ems wrote it for Dre (T.I. as well btw.) and laid a reference verse for him.
Eminem once again killed it I also want to give some shine to the queen lauryn hill who gave us a contender for best verse of the year. And the track about Tupac was insane too
An instant classic album for me
Now my question is short and simple
KENDRICK WHERE YOU AT? 4 YEARS DAWG
Facts, nothing but Facts. The Queen came back to remind people who she was
Ms Lauryns verse isn't a contender, it is the verse of the year
New VibeVilla video lets goooo
LETS GOOOOO!
That same thing happens to me every single feature and i'm not trying to blow smoke up Em's ass, but i completely forget about the others on the track. When I do remember them then it's wait what did they say lolol My first listen was a little bit of a struggle but the Christmas scheme stood right out and reminds you of why we put him at the top of the rap legends.
Nas's Carrie rhyme scheme is one of the coldest I've heard...EVER!!! Now Em...Ion even have sufficient words rn & that's *really* saying something 🤦🏼♀️ Those last bars on "the greats" were just... IDK man, just 🤯 CLT + ALT + DLT = try again 100 listens later 😂
EM ignoring the beat and finding his own POCKET is what makes it FIRE
he's not off beat or ignoring it AT ALL. i hate when people say this kinda thing. It's a polyrhythm wich is odd sequence over and even 4/4 beat that falls on beat every 12 note. Ask a drummer, it maybe sounds off, but it's an actual incredible hard technical to do, that only someone like Eminem that has been studying and improving his rap style for many years can do.
This verse if sooo trash and that’s coming from a huge em fan.
@@kevinreynolds3594 Ok kevin. Go listen to mariah carey or some shit now 👍🏾👍🏾
@@kevinreynolds3594 Get new ears bro😂
@@jennag3226 ok I’d be lying if I said the verse didn’t grow on me but I still remain critical of the overly-corny Christmas bars and his initial delivery. Usually I can find some comedy in the corny bars but not here unfortunately.
I always love that yall appreciate the technicality in the rapping.
Knew this was comin fast lmao
Couldn't miss it lol
@@VibeVilla you can’t even compare this to renegade in any way. Renegade was monumental because they both went back and forth on the track. Nas gettin his shit off and em gettin his shit off was like a respect they both share for each other and the capabilities one another has. Jay and Em were both hungry back then and they were going at each other’s throats without labeling it as such.
@@alekivaz Eminem wasn't going anywhere in renegade that track was actually with royce da 5'9
Just one of those Times when all the rappers bought it for their respective fanbase and hip hop for people out there 🔥💥🔥💥
Everyone should be grateful for this. This is a gift if you love hip-hop. Don't compare....appreciate!!!
wish we had more EPMD time on the song
Classic moment for hip hop
Lauryn Hills verse on the album was the best to me.
She killed!
@@VibeVilla love em as I think we all do. But I’ve grown so dislike it even more when he speeds up and falls off the beat.
Does anyone remember when Lauryn Hill said that her music is not for white people I wonder if she still feels the same
@@studiorose11 he wasn’t off beat it was off kilter, most Detroit rappers do that shit
@@studiorose11 Eminem kill Nas on his own song. Eminem has the best verse on the entire album. Stop hating fool
Goat reactors stepping up
Was waiting for you two!!!! 🔥🔥🔥
Nas sounded like he did 20 years ago… Eminem sounded like he came back from 2084 to drop some bars.
But in the best sense possible
“A pocket full of pills… so some are E which reminds me of *rap summary* … always use to play that shit on repeat all day, so please call me "Big Daddy", plus I got the *cane* and *lean on me* ”
This line/bar is a TRIPLE ENTENDRE:
• Big Daddy Kane has a song called “Rap Summary (Lean On Me).
• When an old person walks with a cane, he/she has sort of a lean/slouch to his/her walk.
• “cane” and “lean” as in the drugs, cocaine and lean
🤯🔥
EPMD is spelled out in that whole scheme starting with ‘Some are E..’ nuts how layered this is.
Rap summary (E)
repeat (P)
Call Me (M)
Big Daddy (D)
@@davidboucher3584 🤯
Everyone on the track killed it!
Em’s verse is crazy, but folks be getting caught up in him going overboard with bars. Nas gave Em a nice lob
This was not overboard dog this Eminem showing you how much he wanted a track with Nas man like he rap different on this track
@@loopylitty3283 facts
@@loopylitty3283 lol overboard meaning they just let him have a mad long verse
@@d.michael372 yeah I kind of read it a little weirdly my b but anyway I kind of looked at it in my perspective because like me being a Stan and being a massive fan of nas and never seeing them on a track gave me goose bumps just seeing this on my way to work. Like em don’t just be doing shit like this with random rappers. And all the homage and respect he paid to nas on his track to man. And obviously not to mention nas literally out of no where dropping actual F ing instant classics
Oh this album is just everything. It's like going to school or church. Definitely Church.
I always look to you guys first, if not the TOP THREE reactors!
I can understand if people hate on Em’s verse, his delivery has been sounding the same lately, but he went testicles on this track🔥
Would love to see Nas and Em collab more. Living legends
alot of yall saying Em beat Nas, to be honest I think it was even, the only way it could be Em over Nas is because the beat switch and the length of the verse, the lyrics weren't heavy
The lyrics were far from heavy. I thought some of the early bars were corny with the whole Christmas word play. Em sounded too much like a battle rapper on a record.
Thank you
Nas,EPMD & Em
Great track. But it’s not even closest to one of the best tracks on the album. The album is fire though. 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Noel, is another name for Santa Claus in different countries. That's where Em starts his Christmas scheme. "I ain't got noel's like Christmas" No Ls, zero losses.
🔥 *BARS from Eminem and Nas.* ✊🏽
RESPECTTTTT
Was waiting for your reactionn on this
I been waiting for this!
was hoping y’all uploaded the whole album reaction on youtube
Em did his Em thing. Idk how well it meshes with Nas and Epmd and the song. But this collab was long overdue. I'd say I prefer renegade, where Eminem murdered Hov on his Oops.. sry, u said not to mention it lol 😂😭🖤
HELL YEAH I was ready for y'all reaction 😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁
BACK IN THE CARR!🔥🔥
This is their second collaboration.. Em produced a track for Nas many years ago… this will be his first feature though
Legendary collab 🔥
The Nas verse on this song was the best on the album 🔥
Nas album to 🔥🔥🔥 always will be my favorite rapper
The last part being acapella is a great idea!
if the beat disappeared as he switched to that last cadence.. CHILLS!
so yeah.. I agree 100%
I think they both did great. Nas has this just effortless rapping ability and sounds smooth asf. His voice is iconic as well. He raps a bit more poetic I guess would be the word. And Eminem just kind of spazzes with the flow and finds crazy pockets and it’s just punchline after punchline. A couple of his line were a bit corny imo. But I liked it for the most part. Sometimes it ain’t all about what you are saying. It’s the way you are saying it. If you have the flow, cadence, delivery and multi syllable and internal rhymes, you can make things sound good.
What lines were corny to you?? JW.
It's called rap
He makes corny lines cool imo, his delivery is flawless!!
"Bucks are flying"...like money flying and "I'm making it rain dear"..raining monney...bucks..
The guy on the left is so good looking his voice is low and soft and smile is beautiful 😌
I agree bro, that last part, Em should have went acapella just like what he did in the final rap battle on his movie 8 mile👍🏼
Eminem produced The Cross on God's Son
I just pray for the day when I'm able to say that I'm placed with the greats
And my name's with the Kanes, and the Waynes, and the Jays
And the Dres, and the Yes, and the Drakes
And the J Dillas, Jadas, Cool Js, and the Ras
And amazin' as Nas is, and praise to the Gods of this
Shout to the golden age of hip-hop and the name of this song is
He already is, because he likes to give shout outs…
He just humble..
Em made a beat for Nas called "The Cross" before this collab
Let's gooooooooo vibevilla 💯
That you for what you do. Eminem is a god danm living legend
i LITERALLY get shocked every time he drops
This entire time, I thought that was a ray of sunshine on your face. 😳☀️
As much as us real hip-hop heads deny it. Eminem is the GOAT bro
Eminem maybe the best Wordsmith in Hip Hop history! He has substance but it's not deep enough like a Black Thought, RAKIM, KRS1, or Nas!
I love Eminem but people have to understand hip-hop was born out of racism that's why you see a lot of soul and Street politics with the government in Hip-Hop. Eminem can't produce that so he can never be the greatest of something that was born out of racism! And yes it's because he's white no disrespect it is what it is.

@@mrworkowt5419 Hip hop was born on racism. I agree with you but its not the only aspect of hip hop, far from it. Its to express one's feeling's as bad or good as it could be and talk about difficulties in their life and its also about rhymes, flow and BARS technicity. Its pretty blur of what hip hop really is but eminem sure can be described as the goat. He suffered of racism, discrimination and extreme poverty and talked about it. He even diss his own mama out of rage cuz its like i said, hip hop is to express feeling's as bad as it sound like or could be. Im black by the way👍🏾👍🏾
Y’all missed the bar about hip hop is dead. He literally had an album called - hip hop is dead-. Sometimes y’all lie about understanding every bar . It’s cool we not Perfect
This is their first official drop. There is a song out there, Dr Dre. Ft Nas, Eminem. It’s unreleased. It was meant to be on Dre’s Detox. Can’t remember the name at the moment.
Haunted house she getting scary blood on my hands like Carrie might walk through a cemetery that was amazing
Damn that garden line was double entendre- the last scene from godfather 3 plus the Madison Square garden
Yall missed the closed casket flow/rose link. When you buried they through roses on your grave, but he saying they don't give you those.
When he said go out like The Godfather in the garden,...he was talking about the movie Godfather part 3.
Nas killed it. Eminem RHYMING as usual
Great song Em killed it
that Nas Lauren Hill track is mean!!!!!!!!!
I feel like I haven’t seen anyone catch this at all. When he said he threw a mill out the window, I was trying to figure out if there was something there. He sets it up specifically by saying his “paper is crazy”. So “mill” doesn’t just mean million here. It means mill as in paper mill, the fuckin factory where paper is made lmao.
Gotta love eloquent hip hop heads.
Hitnog has lit a 🔥 under Nas. He got this man on another level right now. Hitboy and Nas are a great duo
That’s actually a great idea if he’d have did the part with the name drops in acapella
Yo we back in the carrrr
Greatness
Eminem maybe the best Wordsmith in Hip Hop history! He has substance but it's not deep enough like a Black Thought, RAKIM, KRS1, or Nas!
It’s not the first time they’ve done a song together. He produced a song for Nas. The Cross on God’s Son. He didn’t put a verse on that though. Would’ve been crazy. 🔥 reaction. Keep ‘em comin. ✌🏽
Needed this 🔥🥵
In the last scene of the godfather how dies in his garden i think been awhile
Brother En passed that joint like a champ..."what's the name of this record..."
They're livestreaming from heaven again, aren't they?
Renegade😜
REENEEEGAAADE!!!
I'm tripping tripping, but what is the background?
Nvm, I was actually tripping, same background as the Shot you down by Isaiah Rashad video you made.
First Vid I vibed with btw.
11th! Got the alert 🚨; made my drive home more amped up!
WE BACK IN THE CAR!
Nas Killed it
I wanna hear your reactions for Jadakiss verses or some of his album's....Consignment, Ignatius, Kiss of death, Kiss the game goodbye
bros..when Eminem say that he want to be put with the greats its like, with no argue, like who argue about wayne or jada or any name he droped being good or not? but no, we have all these haters who cant understand the craft and delivery. but yeah Em knows he his big and already leave a mark on hip hop, but he want to be better and better till that point, where anyone agrees that Em is one of the goats PERIOD!
Gotta react to The Weeknd's new tune 'Take My Breath' as well as some of KSI's tunes off of his album such as 'No Time (feat. Lil Durk)' and 'Lose (feat. Lil Wayne)' - two very solid tracks.
what a song if the rest of the album is like this then woooo
The rest is better. Love Em but yo, Nas spazzed
Nas The Cross
Production by Eminem
