    What you listed aren't actually errors. Like the iphone ringtone thing, that's like having a generic sound of a phone call and then saying "nobody uses rotary phones anymore"
    Regarding the melatonin line in Difficult, Eminem is actually quoting Proof on that, so it's actually Proof that was wrong.

    Real errors would be something like this:
    In The Real Slim Shady, he says "sit me here next to britney spears, you should...christina aguilera better switch me chairs" - the "you should" part sounds like a start to an alternative line that was cut and replaced
    In Stir Crazy he says "what would make me jump in the tub with a cordless phone" followed by electricity sound effect. Cordless phone wouldn't k--- you in the tub, worst case scenario the phone would just stop working as it got wet, same like you jumped in the pool with a cellphone.

    In Brainless he says "the best part about me is I am not you, I'm me" - this is wrong because metaphysically we are all the same, one consciousness

    "I WAS PRAISED AND LABELED AS CRAZED!" Eminem was literally the greatest f---in' all-around rap phenomenon in a long while by 2001. Everything he had touched was golden that year. His peak year.

    He killed shady not himself. That’s why When I’m Gone is a non-shady song and references that as does My Darling. And in Underground he references shady being revived.
    The whole point of relapse was Eminem relapses because Shady is revived and the accents are due to the fact that the revived shady is half Scottish-half Arab.
    Through all of Eminem’s albums at least through MMLP2 there is a minor narrative weaves through the music that basically is the story of Eminem’s rise to fame by dealing with the devil (SSEP), leading to the birth of Shady (SSLP), Eminem is a hybrid of Marshall and Shady (MMLP), all there stories interweave (MMLP and TES), Marshall upsets the balance killing Shady and Eminem (Encore), Marshall brings back Eminem but the balance is upset so Shady comes back and takes over ten fold (Relapse), Eminem finds the balance (Recovery), Marshall and Shady converge as one (MMLP2). Also should note that although they share the same name, Marshall Mathers in the Eminem album universe is a fictionalized version of himself. Revival seems to be all over the place timeline wise but does expand on all three personas. Kamikaze takes place after MMLP2 where Marshall and Shady became one.

    Also in Kamikaze Eminem’s voice is distorted while he speaks on voicemail (effect of the phone) but Google Maps is not distorted. So it’s like Paul driving while listening to em. Very big error.

    No he’s just a f---ing r----- tbh. Remember this guy admitted he didn’t know how to turn on a computer for the longest time. He still struggles to learn how to use a cell phone. This guy didn’t fail 9th grade 3 times for a reason. He’s not a smart person.
