Eminem Songs That Relate To Romeo+Juliette?I Need Major Help

[Heffernan]

for my class i have to make a soundtrack to a fictional modern day Romeo and Juliette...obv since eminem is my favorite artist it only makes sense to start with him...

not only the love part....but the violence...any thing...if any of you guys can think of eminem songs that relate to the theme of R+J let me know...

it doesnt have to only be eminem for the assignment if u can think of any good ones let me know...but any eminem ones should be easy for this section id say



To Mods - I understand this isnt eminem news...but it is atleast something we can have a pretty solid discussion about...

[Heffernan]

i forgot about that song lol...solid suggestion...but romeo and juliette were deff more in love than eminem and kim..that song will be a tough sell to my professor lol

[Fleka]

Kim.

[Notalius]

Kim

[Emadyville]

Space Bound. It starts out with love and ends in death. Just like Romeo and Juliette.

That song completely escaped my mind haha. That's a good one.

yeah i'd say thats a good example.

next is kim, he said in some interview that song dealt with him loving her and not wanting her to leave or something to that extent, i think he said twisted love song, idk look up em quotes about the song.

There With You by the Jokerr. Guy, Girl, death, violence, it has it all!

[PAINKILLƎR]

Space Bound. It starts out with love and ends in death. Just like Romeo and Juliette.

That flows out the tongue so easily like a song lol

[Slim Fiasco]

Maybe Undying Love by Nas?

This song really makes you understand Juliette's personality. It's a concept track, the rapper makes you feel like you were actually her.

Click.

Lmao I had to do this last year, I had Space Bound on the CD

[I.am.Skittlez]

Eminem-crazy in love. Just some part of it. Are you playing the whole song or making a mix of songs ?

[BILI]

Only Kim...

If you wanna get props for tackling gay marriage (suppose it depends what teacher/school you go to) but still using hip hop then try:

It covers forbidden love, gay marriage and an interracial couple (not that people really care about that these days though as much)

In high school I once focused an essay on censorship in music on 'mockingbird' and 'sing for the moment' and talked about rappers being able to relate to kids etc. It read terribly looking back at my writing but I think I was onto something haha. I remember quoting the line "music can talk to you and alter moods, but can it load a gun for you and cock it too?".
