A song produced by Mr. Porter in a joke on how they sweet talk women into having sex by saying that they are the only one they are going to love. Continuing the making fun of boy bands from the previous track on the album, “My Band”

Believe it or not, despite not having Eminem on the song, it still was a single and had a music video.

“Mag or no mag, it don’t matter if I have or don’t have it” is another of Eminem’s many references to pistol-whipping. As long as he has a gun, it doesn’t matter if he has a mag or not. If he has a mag (aka ammo) he can shoot you, but if the gun isn’t loaded he’ll still scare you with it and then he’ll pistol whip you.

Slim Shady is so self-destructive that he destroys his mind, soul, and body. He talks about being operated on for brain damage earlier in the album.

This also calls back to the first, and the lead single of the SSLP, “My Name Is.” In the song, Eminem raps “Dr. Dre, don’t just stand there, operate!” and we see a visual example of Dre trying to find what’s wrong with him in the video.

Fast-forward to the final song on the album, and the operation STILL isn’t finished. But then again, that’s why they call him Slim Shady.

He didn’t actually kill Kim like he said he did on “‘97 Bonnie & Clyde”, but that doesn’t mean their marriage is going great. This is a play on the expression “alive and kicking”, so I guess Kim does a lot more bitching than kicking.

Unlike the AIDS and herpes statements, everything he says here is true. If you were wondering if Em ever tried a certain drug refer to here. Luckily for him, now he doesn’t do anything.
