Dette er et godt eksempel på hvor flink Magdi er med metaforer, ordspill og bilder.
Linjen spiller på “kron eller mynt?”, som er et spill som brukes når man skal ta en avgjørelse. Man tildeler hver side av mynten en løsning, kaster mynten i luften, og ser hvilken side som lander med ansiktet opp; kron eller mynt.
Dette kan bety at Magdi gikk sin egen vei. Hvis han måtte ta en vanskelig avgjørelse, så gjorde han ikke som andre, men gjorde ting på sin egen måte. I stedet for å spille kron eller mynt, så la han mynt oppå kron.

Dreads are a hairstyle. So a million on your dreads means the same as a million on your head, since the hair is placed on the head. This means that when you do something they don’t like (get it twisted) they’ll put a price on your head, aka put a hit out on you.
Also play on the words twisted and dreads. When making dreads, you twist the hair.

Nice wordplay here.
S&M, or Sadomasochism is a type of BDSM sex, where objects like whips and chains are often used.
Eminem later references BDSM again when he says, “And caught her stealing my music, so I tied her arms and legs to the bed/Set up the camera and pissed twice on her.” Restraining someone to a bedpost or any item to simulation helplessness, and golden showers both fall into BDSM.
When something is “Off the chain” it is out of control, fun or attractive.
A whip is a type of weapon, but it can also be a nickname for penis.
A whip is also a nickname for a car so he can also be saying that his car is off the chain.
Eminem can be saying several things with this line. It can mean that he isn’t into S&M, but he is still violent. He can also be calling his genitalia attractive or big, which is a common thing to do for male rappers.
this is also a nod towards the song s&m by rihanna that he featured on
1,255
it could also refer to slim and marshall
another day
another eminem stan
another stretch
another wack tate
It says whip could mean his penis or a car, but the next line is “a little drop of candy paint drips off the frame” candy paint is for cars so I think he meant a car.
Loved the annotation but he wasn’t speaking on his genitalia at all.
Or he could be referring to slave & master hints, “WHIPS off the CHAIN”

I thought at first listen that S and M means Slim Mathers
Em is referencing a song by one of his musical pals Rihanna called “S & M”. In the song, Rihanna says “chains and whips excite me”. He uses wordplay to say even though he is not down with S&M, he still still owns a whip (car) thats off the chain (dope).

And also. “I ain’t in to S&M” meaning Shady and Minaj.

Ok I don’t know if this is a huge coincidence or not, but a year later, Rihanna would release a song called S&M and the chorus would go “Sticks and stones may break my bones but chains and whips excite me.” Is there some sort of connection there?
