Have you ever loved someone so much, you’d give an arm for?” Take a chill guys! We’ve got you covered with another amazing throwback song from our G.O.A.T rapper and microphone thug, Eminem, titled “When I’m Gone“.

When I’m Gone” is a song by American rapper Eminem from his first greatest hits compilation album Curtain Call: The Hits (2005). It was released on December 6, 2005, the same day as the album was released, as the lead single.

When I’m Gone” received mostly positive reviews from music critics. The song charted at number eight on the United States Billboard Hot 100, number 22 on the Hot Rap Tracks chart, number four on the UK Singles Chart and on the Australian ARIA Singles Chart, the latter being the only country where it peaked at number one.
When I’m Gone” was written in 2003 and released in 2005 by Shady Records, on the album Curtain Call: The Hits. It was thought at the time that this album would mark the beginning of an extended musical hiatus for Eminem, who had said “I’m at a point in my life right now where I feel like I don’t know where my career is going…This is the reason that we called it Curtain Call, because this could be the final thing. We don’t know.

The song’s lyrics pertain to Eminem‘s life as a celebrity musician interfering with his family. Eminem uses imagery to evoke a feeling of sadness about his family falling apart.

The music video for the song was directed by Anthony Mandler. Tarick Salmaci, from the TV show The Contender, makes an appearance in the video with his wife.
The music video starts with Eminem rapping on a podium about his life at a small gathering. He’s at an open house where he completely ignores his daughter’s creations but before he can see the error of his actions, it is too late. As he watches her walk away, he raps “Then turn right around in that song and tell her you love her/And put hands on her mother, who’s a spitting image of her”, feeling remorse for writing songs about being violent towards Kim, who is Hailie’s mother, and wonders how he could be a good parent.

Then, he is confronted by his daughter piling boxes in front of the door to prevent him from leaving. He convinces his daughter to let him go but she insists to give him a necklace with her picture. He then finds himself in a hotel room and then on a stage where he raps. At the end of his performance on the stage, he finds his daughter has followed him and tells him of the divorce.

Afterwards, Eminem goes backstage as the “badSlim Shady and looks in a mirror. He then punches it as a way of “killingSlim Shady, a reference to his debut EP as the character. He then finds himself back at home playing with his daughters on the swing. The video ends with him being applauded at the podium.

The video features his daughter Hailie Jade Mathers and an actress as his ex-wife Kim Mathers, from whom Eminem was divorced when the song was released. Kim’s daughter Whitney Laine Scott, whom Eminem thinks of as his own daughter, is also featured as herself towards the end of the video. She is the younger girl on the swing, at the moment in the lyrics when he says “Hailie just smiles and winks at her little sister”. – Wikipedia

Some Quotable Lyrics

Have you ever loved someone so much, you’d give an arm for?
Not the expression, no, literally give an arm for?
When they know they’re your heart
And you know you were their armour
And you will destroy anyone who would try to harm her
But what happens when karma turns right around and bites you?
And everything you stand for turns on you to spite you?
What happens when you become the main source of her pain?
“Daddy, look what I made”, Dad’s gotta go catch a plane
“Daddy, where’s Mommy? I can’t find Mommy where is she?”
I don’t know go play, Hailie, baby, your Daddy’s busy
Daddy’s writing a song, this song ain’t gon’ write itself
I’ll give you one underdog and you gotta swing by yourself
Then turn right around on that song and tell her you love her
And put hands on her mother, who’s a spitting image of her
That’s Slim Shady, yeah, baby, Slim Shady’s crazy
Shady made me, but tonight Shady’s rock-a-by baby…
