eminem , lyrics explanations from few songs

[michal8]

hi , could anyone help me with some lyrics from seduction? Im trying to translate it to my language for my girlfriend. I was fine until I came across to this sentence :" you’re gonna wanna throw out your whole album Rummage through the shit and try to salvage something to see
If you can save any of it "
its too complicated for me so if anyone could simplify it a little, thanks

You will want to throw out your album (after hearing his)

But go back and look if there's something to keep (save from the album) so you can at least make your album less worse (save any of it)

That's basically what it means

[michal8]

ok thanks

[SliK]

My album is so good it will make you want to trash your album.
You will then go looking through all your shitty songs to see if there is any you can save
"but none of it's fucking with me" = But none of your horrible songs are on par with me

Basically he's just saying he makes everyone elses work look bad because he's so good

[michal8]

ok , ok , thanks. Also if you could help me with this one from CWUWF : This is like a vibe you get, go ahead and bop to it .
thanks

[SliK]

A vibe is a feeling. He is talking about his music. "Bob to it" means bob your head (nod it up and down)

So he's saying nod your head to the feeling his music gives you.

ok in marshall mathers song. "What is this bitch, retarded" . I dont get this sentence . Why is the retarded word used like that? Could someone explain it please?

[ImANoob]

he's calling britney spears retarded (or more simply, really dumb) and telling her to give him back the 16 dollars he spent on her album

[michal8]

ok thanks, I know what retarded means but the sentence is wierd for me.

[UofLCard]

ok thanks, I know what retarded means but the sentence is wierd for me.

I think it's easier to understand if you re-word the line as 'Is this bitch retarded'.

[michal8]

yes it is, thanks. Another one from Hello "And you happen to have anything on you to make my mood mellow" could anyone help me with that ?

[ImANoob]

hes asking somebody if they have any drugs with them to make him chill out

[michal8]

aha, ok thank you. And the last one if you could " Now he's up in the bathroom
Like he's busting a nap, almost ended it that soon
Because of the fact, I'm just busting my own chops
While I'm busting a rap" .

[michal8]

anyone please?

"Now he's up in the bathroom, like he's busting a nap" - He collapsed/overdosed in his bathroom (like he was sleeping/napping)
"Almost ended it that soon, because of the fact." - He almost died from the drug overdose.
"Busting my own chops, while I'm busting a rap" - He's poking fun at himself/putting himself down, while he's rapping.
