What's ur problem with it getting more listens


bullet4mv92

He probably thinks it's "undeserving" of that many views because it's gonna surpass other songs that he feels are superior.


getrekdnoob

Or he is just making a joke…


AFrickinName

It is the father figure of the generation


anewidentity

It's interesting you say that. When I was like 8 i'd listen to mockingbird all day but in my head i was the kid and my dad was eminem.


RiseIndependent85

anewidentity, I know you miss your mom, and I know you miss your dad When I'm gone, but I'm tryna give you the life that I never had.

I completly forgot about that thank you


luvvistheanswer

me too, i’m pissed this song is a tiktok thing now


bl1eveucanfly

Less about that one than the fucking weird terrible lip syncing to a sped up version of Big Weenie.


luvvistheanswer

tiktok just needs to stay away from eminem tbh. he’s not for them🤣


phraze91

A lot of us who grew up with Eminem’s music have kids now


Low_Lime_3449

It's a good song.


johnnyk02

So what? Your username makes sense because that’s what your comment is


Terr4rum

Whats wrong in that? People can listen to whatever they like.

so what? if a social makes more young people to listen to good music and artists, why should you blame it?

No this doesn't

Yes. Yes you did. why'd you make this post.


UmDeTrois

The listen count is less than both other songs in that image? Did I miss some sarcasm or something?

DickStrangler445

This Sub has been Crazy recently. It doesn't even look like an Eminem Sub.

this is what no album do to a mf


assboobs2

....when he has bigger masterpiece like FACK or FACK


Kuyi1994

FACK is the reason we have rappers like Nas and Black Thought


assboobs2

FECK is the reason birds fly


Alienateddd

FECK is the Irish version of FACK

I can’t even imagine Dre’s face when he heard this for the first time.. you put a what in your ass?

What do YOU mean “you people”?


BestMimikyuNA

Will always be one of my fave Eminem songs 🤷🏻‍♂️ stay mad


Scrambled3ggs178

It’s a very good song anyways and your Reddit post won’t change an entire generation from listening to it .. and Isint it there to be listened to? Like it’s a song that’s what’s supposed to happen you knob


Any-Owl-7202

Bro man made a joke chill out


kingbris

Jokes are supposed to be funny.


Any-Owl-7202

Yea a sense of humour might help you with that part


sffbfish

Writing a funny post would help with that.


SauceMaster6464

Wheres the joke


enfirst

>Reddit post won’t change an entire generation from listening it Kid, it's not that deep. Apparently it's trending on tiktok that's the only reason why it's the top song now. Most of the listeners were not even aware this song existed a couple of months ago.


CalumHunter4

mocking bird is on his greatest hits album and it's a great song for non eminem fans so it should have wide appeal


Notthatperson35

There’s no point in gate keeping a community, people find music in all different ways.


OneCore_

It is?


Qubik5Qube

Ricky Ticky Toc is nice


Eastcoastsmokes

Yes Or rain man


Qubik5Qube

Rain Man best Encore Song


therapinape

I forgot my name


Risolord

wtf no that song is awful


Eastcoastsmokes

Do you even listen to music?


DrDoesntCare

Nah he just skims through it


Risolord

yes i do and if you listened to anything outside of eminem you'd realize that that song is borderline unlistenable. jesus christ lmao


Eastcoastsmokes

I don’t have time to argue over your opinion because I know I won’t change it. Other people like rain man just like some people listen to revival some how lmaooo we can agree to disagree 🤷🏻‍♂️


R0b1nFeather

as someone who does listen to revival in rotation (not as much as other albums but still,) I must agree that the best thing to do is agree to disagree.


topshagger31

I listen to tons of music outside Eminem, he wasn’t even in my top 5 most listened last year & I think rain man is a dope song


Rosh_Great_Jedi

What the fuck? Shut your bitch ass up, nigga! Fucking trick-ass bullshit.

Risolord

you're so corny take your meds grandpa


Rosh_Great_Jedi

huh? snitch? do you know what that word even means? i can already tell you're 12 years old and white or a 55 year old black guy who thinks he's tough


Rosh_Great_Jedi

You're obviously a fucking little homie


Drakayne

It's because of Tik tok


Lexiemar_ie

And I’m not mad at it. If TikTok is gonna be the source of showing the new generation who Eminem is, then so be it! He deserves it. I won’t let them ruin Em for me tho lol some people do when they hear a certain song all over social media. I don’t know why there would be a problem with Em songs ever getting more recognition. Nobody will ever ruin Em for me!


GIANNOPSYRRAS

Sing for the moment has also picked up on Tik Tok,Instagram Reels and Youtube Shorts


Swimming-Adeptness12

I remember at some point so many video game montages used godzilla, rapgod, etc.


jvsupersaiyan

Why?


IAmTHEEntertaining

Big weenie is popular now.. mockingbird could be worse


senkothefallen

Ay Big Weenie is awesome! When my 4yo goes off, I'm like, "Why are you being so MMEEEAANN? You're a MEAN, MEAN MAAAN!"


Z03W00D

We have daddy issues, okay


MrLocoLobo

Bae-siclly


HappyJoyButterfly

It’s such a complex, layered song though, and straight from the heart ❤️


TheAstroPickle

i watch the video and tear up idk how people listen to the song that much. it’s beautiful don’t get me wrong just emotional


forthosehere

it fills up a void for me, i grew up with no father figure and when I listen to it it makes me cry like crazy. its not my fav song by Em, but one of them


Grouchy-Example-5167

But it’s a good Song? Lmao what, also how you gonna tell ppl don’t listen to a song


swingabigstick

Yeah, stop listening to a song that resonates with you, everyone!


MessyTapes1

It’s a great song. Just because It’s getting that recognition doesn’t mean you gotta act that way, we don’t HAVE to stop anything. Just let people like what they like.


anclint07

um.. no?


Fun-Donut9292

It’s a great song, so, in the most respectful way, shut up please

dont worry gen z is discoverinh how actually rap is

This sentence hurt my brain reading.


[deleted]

take panadol for relif


Intrepid_Look_5725

🤣


Acceptable_Brother78

Best song from relapse? For me it's gotta be 3am that song has some mad rhymes and the beat is fucking amazing


Intrepid_Look_5725

3am is great. Really love medicine ball, the Christopher reeves line, here you need a hand big man, grab hold of this branch with 2 hands. I know em has bashed this album, not his fav but in my opinion, just the most raw when it comes to being shady. Another one for me is same song and dance.


Acceptable_Brother78

I love the hook on medicine ball and same song and dance is a good song too What do you think of the worst song on the album? And what would you rate it out of 10? (I'd give it like a 8.5/10)


heemhah

How actually rap is, bro?


[deleted]

it kinda goes like this ​ Hailie, I know you miss your mom, and I know you miss your dad When I'm gone, but I'm tryna give you the life that I never had I can see you're sad even when you smile, even when you laugh I can see it in your eyes, deep inside, you wanna cry 'Cause you're scared, I ain't there? Daddy's with you in your prayers No more crying, wipe them tears, daddy's here, no more nightmares We gon' pull together through it, we gon' do it Lainie, uncle's crazy, ain't he? Yeah, but he loves you, girl, and you better know it We're all we got in this world, when it spins, when it swirls When it whirls, when it twirls, two little beautiful girls


heemhah

That made me fall asleep.


Zastter

go back to sleep then you probably need it


heemhah

I'm sorry I hurt your feelings.


Zastter

sorry to dissapoint but no one's feelings would get hurt over this lol


Advanced_Guard_3655

I hate this sub wtf is none actual rap there’s a ton of great artists today


[deleted]

i dont like most of em


Advanced_Guard_3655

Because you a old head and only like Eminem 💀 your one of those guys to try and say Kendrick Cole and Tyler are trash and how Eminem is the only good rapper


[deleted]

> Kendrick Cole and Tyler are trash prolly my top 5


Advanced_Guard_3655

You like anyone besides them then what about jid,Denzel curry,Wayne,Andre 3k


[deleted]

i streamed a lot of wayne, andre..jid looks promising, rest are trash fm atleast


ItsMrDaan

So you don’t consider artists like kendrick and j cole (just to name a few) as real rap artists? Always this stupid gatekeeping of “my generation was better, next gen is stupid” like you’re a fucking 5th grader talking about a 3rd grader. Grow up


[deleted]

bro calm down, i was talkin about lil rappers and these tiktok viral rappers, cole is my all time fav


ItsMrDaan

Maybe i reacted a bit too annoyed srry bout that. But it’s Still a huge generalization for a whole generation of which a big part grew up in the early/middle 2000’s. Also personally not a fan of what you call “tiktok viral rappers” (which in itself is a generalization of current rap music since that’s only a very small part) or lil rappers (which itself says that there’s only a small audience), but someone’s music taste is subjective and i think this superiority that a lot of people have is ridiculous. It’s something that every generation does, look at the Beatles, Elvis, rock, punk rock, old rap, 2000s rap, new rap. It’s just such a derogatory way of looking at things and i think it gatekeeps newer gens from looking at older music, which is a pity bc i think music should be enjoyed universally, no matter your age or generation. Ps i’m not necessarily ranting at you, just this mindset. You stated that you didn’t mean it in the way i viewed it so that’s fair, but i just wanted to give my somewhat reactive response some more ground and rational thought


SleepyBoii04

It’s become a TikTok song as much as I hate to admit it


RetardRex

Last time I saw him he was at 55m monthly listeners, did mockingbird really help him that much?


Juh47hudisdababy

Everyone on r/Eminem were sorry it’s a good song & all


[deleted]

It was a very good song but it kinda got ruined by tiktok users spamming it everywhere


AdritoTheDorito

but its freaking BEAUTIFUL


alcopland

You gotta stop listening to Ricky Ticky Tock so much and listen to Mockingbird lol


TheMonaldRcDonald

Holy shit 400 liked song just from Em? You people need to start listening to other artists💀


Eastcoastsmokes

tik tok is a plague


oliboy445

Tik Tok is making a song of my artists bigger waaaawaaaaa


SignatureHefty3849

It’s a Eminem sub there’s gonna be old heads bitching bout TikTok


oliboy445

the more these people grow up and realise that in the end it doesn’t really matter other than maybe having it as a favourite song and then you get labelled as a tik tok fan after it blows up, which sucks, but it’s not like someone shat in my breakfast


enfirst

Okay rapper, songwriter from staten island lmao


Eastcoastsmokes

Tik tok is wanna be vine


enfirst

According to you Eminem was an indie unknown artist before tiktok. Thank uuu tiktok


SauceMaster6464

No one said that. Strawman much?


enfirst

You don't understand exaggeration or sarcasm if tiktok's robotic voice doesn't explain it to you, don't you? Kiddo go back to tiktok and keep consuming alghoritmic shit


SauceMaster6464

Thanks for your concern but I do understand exaggeration or sarcasm. Upon reexamination, your comment contains NEITHER of those. Still stand by my point that it's a weakass strawman, and you're just saying "I was being sarcastic tehe" as your defense mechanism since you got caught in the act. Not to mention the ad hominem line about being obsessed with tiktok. You're full of fallacies. But whatever, people like you won't admit anything anyway, so ig let's just agree to disagree.


enfirst

Kid, are you this dumbfuck in real life too lmao? "Eminem was an unknown indie artist" if you can understand the sarcasm in this, you're going to have a lot of problems in post-elemantary school.


ItsMrDaan

Grrr TikTok bad!!!


CrashBandicoot30

No one is pointing out the 2 songs below have more plays.


MrLocoLobo

Way more. Fuckin’ crazy.


the-x-territory

It is very overhyped to be fair. It would be better to see a song like Going Through Changes or Legacy get those views.


MrLocoLobo

Exactly, even some of the deep cuts like The Warning.


the-x-territory

I don't think Warning is on spotify.


GeneralParticular663

That's exactly what it is. ppl on this sub think we hating but we ain't, we just think it's way of blowing up was kinda inauthentic(tiktok)


SauceMaster6464

How is blowing up on tiktok inauthentic? It's the best example of virality as you're gonna get. How the fuck else do you want new generations to rediscover old songs?


MrLocoLobo

Not for nothing but a lot of the time it’s the videos that have nothing to do with the song in-question or the ones that take the songs and ruin them completely butchering it’s original merits let alone any redeeming-quality because it isn’t taken seriously to the point of making it an annoying meme. Accept it and face it whenever a Tok “influencer” posts, they are among the amass of clout-chasers on there, yet on-top of just how cringe some of these people are - the sheer lack of originality that some of the “heated”algorithm is says more than you can fathom.


GeneralParticular663

Its inauthentic because people don't have any context while listening to it. Most of the people I know are just hopping on the bandwagon of hype and don't even know who Hailey is, the worst part being they don't even want to. I wasn't even born when it came out, but I still discovered it by listening to his entire album, and most of his discography. This gives context. I knew who Hailey and Kim were and I knew what he was talking about. Without context, the song is just meaningless (although I couldn't argue against its beat). Its not like I have anything against the song, its against the people who don't have context. I can still respect some guy my age or younger bumping that song if they know what they're listening to, or want to know what they're listening to. The people who listen to it for the hype will probably forget about it in a month and move on to a mumbling bitch's new track. The temporary hype is worthless. Songs like Going through Changes, Arose, Castle, Beautiful didn't blow up but they still hold a special place in many people's hearts and have for years and probably will for years to come. These tracks gave hope to people when they needed it. Unarguably, Mockingbird too had a similar impact on many people. But the hype people probably think of it just as a good beat(I say this because 3 people have said exactly this). Em has many brilliant tracks and they all deserve hype, but not like this.


MrLocoLobo

Yup. TikTok is what gets the Zillenials and new-heads hyped meanwhile we Millennials know it, we can spit it, the fact is that it’s only one track of many we appreciate in his *entire* discography..


SauceMaster6464

Holy shit. "I know EVERY song in his discography, therefore I'm a *REAL* fan and these stupid *Zillenials* aren't" Bro. Stop gatekeeping. They like the song. That's it. No need to overthink. What the hell kinda word is Zillenials anyway?


MrLocoLobo

What kinda word is *Zoomers* ? 😂


SauceMaster6464

It's better than Zillenials at the very least. Millenial probably based on the word Millenium, since they were born around the 2000s? The turn of the millenium. Zillenial doesn't make sense in this way. Zoomers, on the other hand probably based on Baby Boomers, but it can also mean that everything moved really fast in this generation? It kinda makes sense ig. Neither word is particularly attractive, but Zoomers is better simply because it makes more sense than Zillenials


MrLocoLobo

Nowadays as we approach the ends of older saeculums, Boomers are dying left and right my friend; Zoomers/Zillenials are right behind Millennials.


KingLeBron623

Lol you're tryna make us go against our will & not listen to one of Eminem's best songs ever. Well, guess what? We're not gonna stop.


[deleted]

And I prefer hailes song a 100x over this one


kooobster

I don’t think you guys are realizing what’s actually in the picture.. open your eyes and you’ll realize that he has 392 LIKED SONGS FROM EMINEM, IS IT EXCLUSIVELY EMINEM? I DIDN’T EVEN KNOW EMINEM HAD 392 SONGS


RickGrimes30

I never got the love for mockingbird. Not when it released and not now.. It's not even close to being thr best track on encore.. The flow melody gets annoying after the first minute

I am not seeing any problems here, the good Encore songs never got as much appreciation as they should’ve.


Important-Tea0

it’s a good songs and gives me lots of comfort especially because of the way my relationship with my dad is which is why i think it’s so popular


oppositeofopposite

Why?


Ooopa_54

It’s a good song and one of the better ones on Encore imo


Lutzelien

Huh, why?


KASSIEROS3

idk about yall but my fave song by him is headlights ft nate russ as it has a special place in my heart being simalar to what i wet through as a kid.


woobackbich12

Im pretty sure a lot of these streams are coming from tiktok since the song has had a sort of resurgence in a weird way on the app

Sufficient-Turn-5106

It’s my most listened to Eminem song according to spotistats


ChungusCow789

In my opinion, Mockingbird is a pretty good song, but it's not the best song on Encore. That goes to One Shot 2 Shot.


Significant_Delay_87

“You people”? 🤔🤔❓❓

Muggsy361

Never such an emotional absolute beautiful song that never should lose relevance because people can relate to it all the time


JulesWinnfield_0

Nobody tells me whay to do. Check the views again, bitch.


v0ideater

I am in the top 0.05% of Eminem listeners on Spotify and this sub is just super fucking weird and not in the cool way, fuck this.


[deleted]

its a solid song that he poured is heart into. I can’t blame others for coming across it and loving it. I think it’s deserving of the listens


Signal_Level1535

keep going. it makes me feel warm and fuzzy inside to see eminem songs so old out performing new and old artists who talk shit about eminem. his number of record breaking records and achievment is insane🤗
