Eminem - Curtain Call: The Hits

"Cleanin' Out My Closet" Is A Song By American Rapper Eminem From His Album "The Eminem Show". "Cleanin' Out My Closet" Was The Second Single Released Off The Album Following "Without Me". Unlike The Preceding Single Which Was As His Humorous Slim Shady Persona "Cleanin' Out My Closet" Was A Serious Song Inspired By The Events Of Eminem's Childhood And Relationships. It Depicts Eminem Venting His Anger Towards His Mother Debbie Mathers For The Way She Raised Him. In The Chorus Eminem Sarcastically Apologizes To His Mother For Hurting Her And Making Her Cry But Takes It Back By Showing The World What His Mother According To Him Was Like. It Became The Second Top 10 Single From The Album Reaching Number Four On The United States Billboard Hot 100 Chart And One Of The Highest-Charting Singles Of His Career. The Song Did Not Reach Number One On Any Foreign Charts But Was Certified Platinum In Australia. "Cleanin' Out My Closet" Was Also Used In The Initial Theatrical Trailer To Eminem's Film 8 Mile Released In November 2002 But Was Not Included On The Film's Soundtrack. In The Beginning Of The Song As The Music Begins To Play Eminem Asks "Where's My Snare? I Have No Snare In Headphones." That Actually Happened. The Recording Engineer Had Muted The Snare Drums In His Headphones During The Recording Of The Song. When Editing The Song Eminem Chose To Leave It In The Song. In The First Verse Eminem Deals With The Criticism And Activism Against His Lyrics And How These People Do Not Understand His Background And Personality. The Second Verse Then Moves On To How His Father Abandoned Him And His Mother When Eminem Was An Infant And Then Goes On To Say How He Would Not Do The Same To His Own Daughter. At The Start Of The Third Verse Eminem States That His Comments Regarding His Mother Are Not Made For The Sake Of Public Attention "now I Would Never Diss My Own Mama Just To Get Recognition" Before Alleging Her For Abuse Of Medicinal Drugs And Münchausen Syndrome By Proxy As Stated In The Line "Victim Of Münchausen's Syndrome. My Whole Life I Was Made To Believe I Was Sick When I Wasn't." He Also Mentions The Demo That His Mother Put Out For Him In Hopes Of Repairing Their Estranged Relationship Called "Set The Record Straight" And Claimed She Made It To Try To Justify The Way She Treated Him. He Then Goes On To Insult His Mother By Telling Her He Will Not Take His Daughter S To Her Funeral And Is Enraged That She Will Not Admit She Was A Bad Mother And Calls Her Out For Suing Him And Says "But How Dare You Try And Take What You Didn't Help Me To Get / You Selfish Bitch I Hope You Fucking Burn In Hell For This Shit!" Finally He Mentions That At His Uncle Ronnie's Funeral His Mother Told Him He Should Have Died Instead Giving Way To The Final Lyric "Well Guess What? I Am Dead / Dead To You As Can Be!" Allmusic Highlighted This Song. David Browne Was Lukewarm "The Unhealed Scars Of His Childhood Are Pored Over In Cleanin' Out My Closet In The Chorus He Apologizes For Making His Mama Cry But In The Verses He Lashes Out At Her You Selfish Bitch And Vows To Be A Better Dad Than His Own Absentee Father I Wonder If He Even Kissed Me Goodbye . The Song Is Both Fragile And Furious And The Syncopated Music-Box Arrangement Matches It In Tension." J-23 Was Positive "Cleanin' Out My Closet" Features The Album's Most Personal Rhymes As He Lets Us Know Just How He Feels About His Parents. His Third Verse Dealing With His Mother Is Truly Something To Behold." NME Also Praised The Single "Cleanin' Out My Closet" A Stunning Outpouring Of Grief-Stricken Anger Against His Mother." RapReviews Agreed "The Jokes Don't Last Very Long Though Because Eminem's Next Song "Cleanin' Out My Closet" Is A Direct Attack On His Mother For Not Really Being One." Rolling Stone Praised The Song's Production "Cleanin' Out My Closet" Feature Electric-Guitar Rhythms Fraternizing With Hip-Hop-Sensible Drum Patterns" And He Noted That His Eminem's Relationship With His Estranged Mother Creates "Cleanin' Out My Closet " Possibly The Record's Most Powerful Moment."
