Eminem-Houdini Lyrics Song :

Eminem’s song ‘Houdini’ is an explosion of self-confidence and provocation, in which the rapper reaffirms his presence on the music scene with the same intensity and irreverence that have characterized him since the beginning of his career. The lyrics begin with an introduction from Paul Rosenberg, Eminem’s long-time manager, who ironically wishes the rapper good luck, suggesting that he is on his own. This already sets the defiant tone of the song, telling the world: “It’s okay if I’m alone in this industry, it’s always been like this and it always will be”.

Hey, Em, it’s Paul
Uh, I was listening to the album

Well, look what the stork brung (what?)
Little baby devil with the forked tongue (huh)
And it’s stickin’ out, yeah, like a sore thumb (bleh)
With a forehead that it grew horns from (look)
Still a white jerk (it’s him)
Pullin’ up in a Chrysler to the cypher
With the Vics, Percs and a Bud Light shirt
Lyrical technician (yeah), an electrician (yeah)
Y’all light work (haha)
And I don’t gotta play pretend, it’s you I make believe (what?)
And you know I’m here to stay ’cause me (why?)
If I was to ever take a leave (what?)
It would be aspirin’ to break a feve’ (yeah)
If I was to ask for Megan Thee (what?)
Stallion if she would collab with me
Would I really have a shot at a feat? (Haha)
I don’t know, but I’m glad to be back like

Abra’, abracadabra (and for my last trick, poof)
Just like that and I’m back, bro

Now, back in the days of old me (when?)
Right around the time I became a dope fiend (oh)
Ate some codeine as a way of copin’, taste of opiates (mmm)
Case of OE turned me into smiley face emoji (woo)
My shit may not be age-appropriate
But I will hit an eight-year-old in the face with a participation trophy (ooh)
‘Cause I have zero doubts
That this whole world’s ’bout
To turn into some girl scouts

That censorship bureau’s out to (shut me down)
So when I started this verse (yeah), it did start off lighthearted at first
But it feels like I’m targeted, mind-bogglin’ how my profit has skyrocketed
Look what I pocketed, yeah, the shit is just like y’all had been light joggin’
And I’ve been runnin’ at full speed and that’s why I’m ahead like my noggin’
And I’m the fight y’all get in when you debate who the best, but opps, I’m white chalkin’
When I step up to that mic, cock it then: Oh my God, it’s him! Not again!

Abra’, abracadabra (and for my last trick)

Abra’, abracadabra (and for my last trick, poof)
Just like that and I’m back, bro (break it down)

Sometimes I wonder what the old me’d say (if what?)
If he could see the way shit is today (look at this shit, man)
He’d probably say that everything is gay (like, happy)
What’s my name? What’s my name? (Slim Shady)

So how many little kids still wanna act like me? (Haha)
I’m a bigger prick than cacti be (yeah)
And that’s why these (what?)
Words sting just like you were bein’ attacked by bees (bzz)
In the coupe, leanin’ back my seat (what?)
Bumpin’ R. Kelly’s favorite group (uh), the Black Guy (Guy) Pees (haha, Pees)
In my Air Max 90s, white Ts, walkin’ Parental Advisory
My transgender cat’s Siamese (why?)
Identifies as Black, but acts Chinese (haha)
Like a motherfuckin’ Hacky Sack, I treat (what?)

The whole world ’cause I got it at my feet (yeah)
How can I explain to you (what?)
That even myself I’m a danger to? (Yeah)
I hop on tracks like a kangaroo
And say a few things or two to anger you
But fuck that, if I think that shit, I’ma say that shit
Cancel me, what? Okay, that’s it
Go ahead, Paul, quit, snake-ass prick
You male cross-dresser (haha), fake-ass bitch
And I’ll probably get shit for that (watch)
But you can all suck my dick, in fact

Fuck them, fuck Dre, fuck Jimmy, fuck me, fuck you
Fuck my own kids, they’re brats (fuck ’em)
They can screw off (yeah), them and you all (uh)
You too, Paul (punk), got two balls big as RuPaul’s (woah)
What you thought you saw ain’t what you saw (nah)
‘Cause you’re never gon’ see me
Caught sleepin’ and, see, the kidnappin’ never did happen (no)
Like Sherri Papini, Harry Houdini
I vanish into the thin air as I’m leavin’ like

Abra’, abracadabra (and for my last trick)
I’m ’bout to reach in my bag, bruh (like)
Abra’, abracadabra (and for my last trick, poof)
Just like that and I’m back, bro

About Eminem :

Rapper Marshall Bruce Mathers III, better known by his stage name Eminem, was born in the United States on October 17, 1972. He is considered as one of the best rappers of all time and is credited with bringing hip hop to the masses in Middle America. It is believed that his widespread popularity has dismantled racial barriers preventing white rappers from being accepted in popular music.

The Slim Shady LP helped him gain mainstream recognition in 1999. His next two albums, The Eminem Show (2002) and The Marshall Mathers LP (2000), were both global hits and Grammy Award nominees for Album of the Year.

Eminem took a break in 2005 following the release of Encore (2004), his next album, mainly because of a prescription medication addiction.

Apart from his individual pursuits, Eminem was a part of the hip-hop collective D12. Along with Royce da 5’9″, another rapper from Detroit, he is well-known for his collaborations; together, the two go by the moniker Bad Meets Evil.

In the 2002 musical drama 8 Mile, Eminem played a staged portrayal of himself. A song off the soundtrack called “Lose Yourself” became the first hip-hop artist to win the Academy Award for Best Original Song and peaked at number one on the Billboard Hot 100 for a record-breaking 12 weeks. He has appeared in cameos in the TV show Entourage (2010) as well as the motion pictures The Wash (2001), Funny People (2009), and The Interview (2014). Eminem has created additional

endeavors, such as the joint venture Shady Records with manager Paul Rosenberg, which aided in the beginning of the careers of a number of musicians, including D12, Obie Trice, and 50 Cent. Additionally, he launched Shade 45, his own Sirius XM Radio channel.

Eminem is one of the best-selling musicians of all time, having sold an estimated 220 million records worldwide. He was the third-best-selling male musician in the United States during the 2010s and the 2000s’ best-selling music artist in the country overall. He was selected “Artist of the Decade (2000–2009)” by Billboard. He is the first musician to have ten consecutive number-one albums on the Billboard 200,

all of which debuted at the top of the list; he also has five number-one albums.singles that reached the top of the Billboard Hot 100.

Eminem was admitted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in November of 2022.

Born on October 17, 1972, in St. Joseph, Missouri, Marshall Bruce Mathers III was the only child of Marshall Bruce Mathers Jr. and Deborah Rae “Debbie” (née Nelson). He has ancestors from Scotland, Wales, England, Cherokee, Germany, Switzerland, Poland, and maybe Luxembourg.

After giving birth to him for 73 hours, his mother almost passed away. Before they split up, Eminem’s parents played in a band called Daddy Warbucks, which performed at Ramada Inns near the border between Montana and the Dakotas. When Eminem was a year and a half old, his father left the family, leaving Eminem to grow up in poverty with just his mother, Debbie. Nathan “Nate” Kane Samara is the son his mother eventually had.

By the time he was twelve, Eminem and his mother had relocated multiple times, resided in various cities, and They lived in several Missourian cities, including as St. Joseph, Savannah, and Kansas City, before relocating to the Detroit suburb of Warren, Michigan. A social worker described Eminem’s mother as having a “very suspicious, almost paranoid personality” and that they constantly clashed. Debbie claimed that he wrote letters to his father, but they were all returned with the notation “return to sender”.

In Detroit, Eminem resided close to 8 Mile Road. Eminem was severely damaged in an attack on his head as a child by a bully named D’Angelo Bailey. He later described the experience (with comic exaggeration) on the song “Brain Damage”. For this reason, Debbie sued the public school in 1982. The next year, a judge in Macomb County, Michigan, dismissed the lawsuit, stating that the schools were not subject to legal action.

Eminem spent a large portion of his early years living in a working-class, predominately black neighborhood in Detroit with his mother. On their block, he and Debbie belonged to one of three white houses, and Eminem was frequently beaten by young black people.

Before he discovered hip hop, Eminem had a passion for storytelling and had dreams of becoming a comic book artist. Debbie’s half-brother Ronnie Polkingharn gave him the Breakin’ soundtrack, which featured his first rap song (“Reckless”), which he heard. The boy was close to his uncle, who later served as a mentor to him in music. Eminem withdrew from public discourse for several days following Polkingharn’s 1991 suicide and declined to attend his wake.

Rapping together with his high school buddy Mike Ruby, Eminem started at the age of 14. They took on the identities “M&M,” which later became “Eminem,” and “Manix.” Along with fellow rapper Proof, Eminem broke into nearby Osborn High School to engage in freestyle rap battles in the lunchroom. Every Saturday, they went to the Hip-Hop Shop on West 7 Mile Road, which is regarded as “ground zero” for the Detroit rap culture, for open mic competitions.

Eminem struggled in a largely black profession, but underground hip hop fans liked what he was doing. He wanted most of the words in his verses to rhyme, so he would write big words or phrases on paper and then work on rhymes for each syllable underneath. Eminem was able to rehearse sounds and rhymes with the drill, even though the words frequently made no sense.

He started his first band, New Jacks, in 1988 and collaborated with DJ Butter Fingers to record a self-titled demo tape under the stage name MC Double M. They eventually joined Bassmint Productions in 1989, and in 1992, together with rapper Proof and other childhood friends, they changed their name to Soul Intent. In 1995, they issued an EP of the same name, which featured Proof.

In addition, Eminem debuted in a music video for Champtown’s song “Do-Da-Dippity” in 1992. The Dirty Dozen (D12), which consisted of Eminem, Proof, and four other rappers, was formed later in 1996. They released their debut album Devil’s Night in 2001 and The Underground E.P. in 1997. He also collaborated on various projects with the Newark-based rap group Outsidaz.

Eminem released his debut album, Infinite, for Jeff and Mark Bass’s indie Web Entertainment label after signing with their production company, F.B.T. Productions, shortly after. When the album was released in 1996, it was a commercial failure. His battle to nurture his newborn daughter Hailie Jade Scott Mathers on a tight budget was one of Infinite’s poetic subjects.

Rappers Nas, Esham, and AZ were the main influences on Eminem’s rhyming style around this time, although it lacked the humorously brutal edge for which he would later become famous. The criticism that Eminem did receive—”Why don’t you go into rock and roll?”—came from Detroit disc jockeys, who mainly ignored Infinite and encouraged him to write harsher, moodier songs.

Eminem and Kim Scott were living in a dangerous neighborhood at the time, and their home was frequently broken into.A family-style restaurant in St. Clair Shores called Gilbert’s Lodge employed Eminem to cook and wash dishes for minimum wage. During the six months following Hailie’s birth, he worked sixty hours a week, according to his former manager, who called him “a model employee.”

“It was, like, five days before Christmas, which is Hailie’s birthday,” he remarked after learning of his dismissal soon before Christmas. I only had about forty dollars to buy her a gift.” Following the publication of Infinite, he attempted suicide as a result of substance misuse and personal issues. He was let go from Gilbert’s Lodge in March 1997, and he moved in with Kim and Hailie in his mother’s mobile home.
