Classic Line From Rabbit Run

Postby MikeNUFC » Jul 25th, '10, 17:58

"Want peace of mind? Here's a piece of mine"

Shit works on so many levels

-He's using two well known opposite phrases
-You've got the play on peace/piece
-The play on mine/mind
-He flips the question on it's head but the wordplay is still incorporated.

The fact he's managed to use the two phrases with two bits of wordplay, which work as a double meaning, and add a load to the song, in such a short line is astonishing.

This is the kinda wordplay I love from Em, not the pointless, un-clever ones on Recovery.

not to kill the vibe here but Andre 3000 came up w an even sicker line based on tht play on words. its from Aquemini (1998) on Return of the G, its like his very first line:

niggas always talkin bout peace this brother peace that
everytime i try to get a peace of mind
niggas try to grab a piece of mine
so i gotta grab my piece (as in a gun)

haha tht just kills it

^Hahaha how the fuck did I forget about that? I used to always quote that.

Eminem might have even took influence from that line, actaully, he's a big Andre fan.

I made a friend of mine listen to the song, he went crazy over that line. But wordplay has never impressed me, multies are the real deal...

As if that line has anything on "shake your ass like a donkey with Parkinsons" or "window pain" or pretty much the entire Not Afraid

:laughing:

I actually like the donkey with parkinsons line. I laughed.

But Calm Batman >>> That.

This line from RR is good though. :worship:


He ruined that line when he said get it? Calm bat man

I think it would have gone unnoticed had he not said it. for me at least. Just like the "checking the male/mail" in MMLP.
