Wordplay!
After Eminem’s rant about killing him and grilling him, he says he is Marsh, a shortened form of his name, Marshall. Next, Eminem humiliates his competitors rap style by saying he is boring or mellow compared to Em, who is clearly electric and original.
Therefore… Marshmallow!
Eminem revamped this line later on “No Love”.
And I see you came up to me and smiled
That really helped me out so thank you for that
I've been in a pretty good mood now for a while Cam Meekins – Body, Stress, Pleasure

while standing on his porch, someone came up to him and smiled. This made Cam’s day and just made him really happy that someone would care enough to just smile at him. By building this up as a such a great thing to do, in a way Cam is encouraging us to do the same

So now I'm walking through the city saying hi to everybody
And they all smile back, hey wassup yo?

This part of the song is directly related to a line in the first verse. The first part is a sample and thus relates to how he addresses the fact that he often times makes samples in the first verse.
Next, the repetition of “body, stress, pleasure” is related to his life and how as he says in the first verse he is “tryna cram his whole life into a couple minute sample loops”. All that he is is his body, his stress, and his pleasure, thus it is on loop.

this is a reference to the deep concepts that Cam often times addresses in his music. He often samples other songs in his creations for the chorus thus he is trying to fit the deep and sad aspects of his life into a limited number of songs that sample other ones.
Cam does like to reference his samples in his songs.
So stop asking me for advice you stupid whore Cam Meekins – Body, Stress, Pleasure

Cam sees in his rise of popularity more and more fans hanging onto his every word on how to live their lives. Meanwhile, his depressing yet thought-provoking music shows that he is also very confused with his own life.

Spose is a huge fan of Outkast and who can blame him? They are two of the greatest rappers of all.
Spose constantly praises them and even made an entire mixtape using only their instrumentals. Dankonia in a lot of ways was Spose’s way of paying tribute to the two outstanding MC’s.
I need a dollar, dollar
A dollar that's what I need
Well I need a dollar, dollar

A dollar that's what I need
And if I share with you my story would you share your dollar with me? YONAS (Ft. Aloe Blacc) – I Need A Dollar (Remix)
