Old Eminem -- The *Real* Slim Shady -- is Back!

It only took several years, but it happened: we finally got the old, unapologetic Eminem back! 🥲 I cannot begin to convey how ecstatic I was while listening to Houdini and watching the music video. I knew that Eminem "going woke" was a facade, more than likely done in an attempt to appeal to his one adopted daughter, Stevie (who identifies as non-binary, etc.). However, when he realized that there is no winning with that crowd, Eminem said "Fuck it," stopped pandering to idiots, and went back to the real Slim Shady 😎

So if you have not watched the music video yet, you will find it extremely reminiscent of Without Me. Eminem and Dr. Dre team up once again to confront the real Slim Shady, who has used the New York Portal to travel in time to the current year of 2024. Needless to say, Slim Shady finds today's society and standards to be... confusing, to say the least 😅

And now, for some of the best lines in Houdini!

🎶 If I was to ask for Megan Thee Stallion if she would collab with me
Would I really have a shot at a feat?
I don't know, but I'm glad to be, back like- 🎶

This was a great shot (no pun intended) at Megan Thee Stallion 😏 If you keep up to date with the rap scene, you may remember an incident back in 2020 where Megan was shot in the foot! She obviously recovered, everything is good, and her assailant has since received 10 years in prison for the crime.

A Stallion fan even attempted to set up a voting poll for who is the better rapper: Eminem, or Megan? Obviously bait, there's absolutely no contest -- Eminem won by over 90%.

🎶 But I will hit an 8-year-old in the face with a participation trophy
'Cause I have zero doubts
That this whole world's 'bout to turn into some girl scouts 🎶

Eminem just poking fun at the "soft" state of the world 😂 Y'know, how schools need to cater to children's feelings... There's no longer such things as winners and losers... Everybody's confused about their identity, and if they're not confused, they're conforming for the sake of attention and validation...

🎶 Sometimes I wonder what the old me'd say (If what?)
If he could see the way shit is today (Look at this shit, man)
He'd probably say that everything is gay (Like happy) 🎶

Absolutely love this part because this is what we had all been waiting for -- for Eminem to stop coddling the softies and get back to the real him! Did we really think that the man who once sang:

"Sorry Puff, but I don't give a fuck if that chick was my own mother. I'd still fuck her with no rubber and cum inside of her and have a son and a new brother at the same time and just say that it ain't mine"

actually supported today's standards? Again he only played into lefties because his adopted daughter is one! 🥴

🎶 My transgender cat's Siamese
Identifies as Black, but acts Chinese 🎶

Hopefully no explanation needed; just pure gold~ 👌

🎶 But you can all suck my dick, in fact
Fuck them, fuck Dre, fuck Jimmy, fuck me, fuck you
Fuck my own kids, they're brats (Fuck 'em)
They can screw off, them and you all (Yeah) 🎶

Yep! Not even Eminem's own children are safe from him! 😄 They even made a cameo appearance! 😂
He wrapped up the song perfectly. If Eminem doesn't even care what his own loved ones think, then cancel culture is child's play -- y'all ain't special! 😂

So yeah, that'll just about do it for my review of the song, Houdini -- I loved it! 😄 So happy and refreshing to see the old Eminem returning... Perhaps this is a sign that we're finally entering The Good Times™!?
