Postby shadegirl » Apr 8th, '10, 19:07

sometimes i hear eminem lines in songs and wonder what he means. he sometimes writes things that once u find out what it means ur like ahh thats what he meant! so thought i would do a thread for people to write down lyrics/words he uses in songs/interviews etc that u dont understand.

here is one i dont understand
from world keeps turning

yeah bitch your so big you went to big tannys and stepped on jenny criag
(never got that but i actually love that line lmao.)

I never got it either but i'm guessing it's some American reference since i've heard comparisons to "Jenny Craig" to make fat jokes in other American stuff

Big Tanny's (sp) is a gym. Jenny Craig is a weight-loss mogul.

so, em is saying that she went into Big Tanny's (a gym) and stepped on Jenny Craig (A famous weight loss program that Jenny Craig created, or just named after her). either way all he is saying is that this fat lady walked into a gym and stepped on a fat person

Incorrect song titles is always a major problem for me. I have Asperger's Syndrome, and correct song and film titles is one of my biggest things. I mean no disrespect.
