Yeah, I like what they did. Honestly, I was expecting them to stand around and rap without any sort of "story"...but they did a good job of actually doing something with the video. Sober Eminem trying to play Eminem on drugs is kind of funny. Anyway, does anyone know when it'll be up on iTunes?

Oh, man... he just looks exactly like 2002 Eminem.. & that hair combed upwards..the XXL size white tee & fuckin' trademark sweatpants.. He looks so fuckin' young.. This is how he would have looked, if things didn't get fucked up in his life & all that shit hadn't happened... That's pretty much the best part of the video for me.. fuck hoodies, fuck leather jackets & knee-length pants..

At first sight I thought that blond Em was from 2002, probably from an unused clip from a music video...

I'm disappointed with the video overall & Richard Lee, to be honest. I liked the last bit with the lights in the sky, Eminem during "switchblade to a hater's ribcage" & the first part...

I didn't really picture "Lighters" to have such dark imagery as depicted in the video... The red light just throws me off, would have preferred yellow.. And three brand placements in the video too, nahh.
They say the good die young... Proof, YOU'RE NEVER OVER.

A lot of the links/pics I've posted in the last year or so, if they're dead, there is a probability that I have archived it on Archive.today.

If you need to reach me for any reason, message me on Hip Hop Shelter.

Yeah, they were definitely aiming for that, but no, he did not dyed his hair again.
Smart use of lightening to make him seem blond.

Jesus people...in the beginning of the video ,is not the light, he is blonde..characterized as the old Eminem...Remember his old red tracksuit....at the end of the video he looks like the current eminem...

for the blonde dye they probably used some hair paint, nothing permanent,so don't look fully blonde..But yes he is clearly blonde.

Graphic wrote:It's obvious that he's supposed to be blonde lol. His clothing plus blonde hair is supposed to equal his old self, which is why he's laying around on the couch and unable to write anything.

Whether he really dyed his hair blonde to film the video is another question—it doesn't look like he did. Regardless, the intention was for him to look blonde.


This is what i'm thinking.

Makes sense.

Same with Royce and being in Jail.

Goddamnit people, are we looking at the fucking same video? :facepalm

Is anyone here who does photography in his free time? :shakehead:
All they used was fucking lightening.
But yeah, they were going for the whole blonde image.
Anyway, the video is good. Em looks good in red pants. But nothing specially really.

That was a really cool video, and it had a nice concept to it. What I got from it is that people can't stay living in the past (hence the old Eminem / incarcerated Royce), so they have to go through dark places (the "sewers") but at the end you'll see the light.

Very nice indeed.

I really don't think it's just the lighting.

Image
His whole head looks blonde, even though some of it is facing away from the window.

Image
Same thing.

Image
Also the same thing.
