He’s compared this girl he’s with to a quota which is a standard set which people have to meet or excel often seen in a workplace. However this could be a reference to the five year plan set up by Russia and copied by numerous other governments. They set up some high ass quotas that were pretty much unreachable.

Eminem touching on his complex relationship with the public.

He’s a society corrupting devil to many critics and organizations (GLAAD, NOW), but to the fans he’s an angel as he’s relatable and helps them out by giving them a vent for emotions.

Note that he said he’s a devil with a halo, and not an angel with horns. He’s clearly more evil than good.

Ironically, after starting this line with “Devil”, the next one starts with “Hell”.

Also, J. Cole had a similar concept on his album, Born Sinner:

Also

Eminem said back in ‘00 in The Way I Am:

You can call me an asshole I’m glad…

Em seems to be throwing back to old things he said, because the next line is also a follow up of something he said way back in the early 2000s.

Cole references “The Soul of Anna Klane”, a 1977 novel written by Terrel Miedaner. In the book, a girl named Anna Klane must undergo brain surgery to live. However, the surgery comes at the price of her soul.

Cole connects this to how big industries make deals with aspiring artists. The speaker in this hook is the rich corporate figure (someone who owns a record label) who is negotiating with someone who aspires to be apart of their company (an upcoming rapper.) The bigger company has the deal that the smaller artist needs while the smaller artist has the content that the bigger company wants.

The underlying question of the rich corporate figure is “How much will you sell yourself for?” Will you do whatever it takes to become famous–including sacrificing your morals or beliefs?

(Editor’s note: There has been some confusion over the last word of these lyrics. Many people have argued that the proper lyrics should read “how much for you soul and uh”. However, in the lyric booklet of the album, the correct lyrics are printed out as “Anna,” not “and uh.”)
