The Stages You Went Through When You Heard Eminem's 'Campaign Speech' For The First Time

Yesterday (Oct. 19), Eminem stopped the world when he dropped "Campaign Speech." 

It's been a while since we last heard from Marshall and it was an unexpected, yet gratefully appreciate surprise when he came through with this new work of rap art. But that's even the half of it, Em also admitted that he's working on a brand new album. 

But getting back to "Campaign Speech," fans of Slim's have been listening to it over and over again, ever since it dropped. We can't lie, though. The severe reactions we went through when we first heard it had us on the floor. Many even felt like calling in sick for the rest of the week after it was released because it had us sick.

These are the stages Em's fans went through when we heard his unprecedented "Campaign Speech." Right off the rip, he had us gone. 

We suggest listening to the song while reading this, to get the full effect. Enjoy!

"Jumped out of the 2nd floor of a record store/ With a Treacherous Four cassette and a cassette recorder/ In Ecuador with Edward Norton"


"Witness the metamorphosis/ Of a legend growin' like an expert swordsman/ From the Hessian war and/ Hence the origin of the Headless Horseman"


"Born with the endorphins of a pathetic orphan/ Endless source and reservoir/ Of extension cords in dresser drawers/ And deadbolts on the bedroom doors/ And sexual torture kits kept in a separate storage bin/ Excellent boyfriend"


"Use intercourse to settle scores/ With women who have vendettas towards men/ D**khead is forced in 'til there's shredded foreskin/ Reddish torn and they're only bein' fed a portion/ Bed sores and sore shins/ Pregnant wh**es can get abortions/Fetish for stickin' metal forks in, self-absorption/ Skeletor, I went to Hell and fell a floor/ A predator, I'm headed for competitors/ Better warn 'em, what I lack in tact and a set of morals/ I make up for in metaphors like a cosmetic store"


"Stegosaurus, Chuck Norris with a thesaurus/ Yes, of course, a mess of warrants/ You want some? Come and get some, boys!/ I'm givin' Daniel Pantaleo a refresher course/ On excessive force and pressure points/ And dressin' George Zimmerman in a fluorescent orange/ Dress and four inch heels to address the court/ With a bullseye on his back, his whole chest and torso/ Or left on the doorsteps of Trayvon's dad as a present for him!"


"In my present form I'm Desert Storm/ Appetite for destruction there's no suppressant for/ Aggressive, forceful, and less remorseful in every morsel/ Unpleasant, horrible; hello, gorgeous!/ The rebel with devil horns just fell off the yellow short bus"


"Met a contortionist, said, "When you wanna get sexual?/ She said, "However I fit in your schedule. I'm flexible"


"Expired tags on the Saturn, got Catherine BachIn the back in Daisy Dukes with the hazards on/ At a traffic stop gettin' harassed, sign an autograph/ For this a**hole cop's daughter/ Laugh 'cause I called her a brat on it/ He spat on it and brought it back lookin' half in shock/ Had a heart attack and dropped dead/ Started fallin' back with it/ And got slapped with a Colin Kaepernick practice sock"


AND THAT'S JUST THE FIRST 2 MINUTES...
