Artist/Group: Eminem • Album: The Marshall Mathers LP • Released: 2000 • Label: Aftermath/Interscope • -------------------------------------------------- • Kim is a song by American rapper Eminem that appears on his 2000 album The Marshall Mathers LP. The song reflects intense anger and hatred toward his then-wife Kim Mathers and features Eminem imitating her voice, and ends with him killing Kim and later putting her in the trunk of his car. • Kim was the first song Eminem recorded for the album, shortly after finishing work on The Slim Shady LP in late 1998. He wrote it, along with '97 Bonnie Clyde (where Eminem and his daughter go to the lake to dispose of Kim's dead body), when he and Kim were having marital problems and Kim was preventing him from seeing his daughter Hailie. Despite its controversial graphic content, it is often highlighted as one of Eminem's most memorable songs. • on the clean version of The Marshall Mathers LP, this song is replaced by a clean version of The Kids (an unedited version can be found on the CD single of The Way I Am , the UK and deluxe editions of The Marshall Mathers LP). • Since meeting in 1989, Eminem and Kim Scott have had an on-and-off relationship. They had a daughter, Hailie Jade Mathers, who was born on Christmas Day 1995. The couple married in 1999 and divorced in 2001, later remarried in 2006 and divorced that same year. Kim is the third song by Eminem about Kim, the first being Searchin from his debut album Infinite (1996) and the second being '97 Bonnie Clyde from the album. The chorus of the uncensored version is also different from the album version, with the album version echoing Eminem's voice, the choruses sound different each time in the uncensored version, but the last chorus is similar to the choruses of the album version. The song continues with Eminem driving frantically through traffic, and stopping in the woods, where Kim tries to run away, but fails. The final verse ends with Eminem slitting Kim's throat, while screaming Bleed, bitch! Bleed! . The song then ends in a prolonged outro during which the listener can hear a skit called Mommy , which was released on Slim Shady EP, which was placed before Just the Two of Us . The skit includes sounds of a dead body being dragged through the grass and thrown into the trunk of a car. This same skit is played as the beginning of '97 Bonnie Clyde (a later remastered version of Just the Two of Us from Slim Shady EP), indicating the association between the two songs and the direct chronology of events. • The Rolling Stone album review of The Marshall Mathers LP stated that: • Things degenerate from there into the mountain of bile reserved for Kim, the mother of his baby and the star of the world's most public ongoing murder fantasy 'Kim' has Eminem screaming at his ex in an insane stream-of-consciousness hate spew. There's little humor to blunt the shock of the hellbent animosity of 'Kim.' What makes it powerful is that, of course, he doesn't just hate her. It's the most harrowing sick-love song since Guns N' Roses' 'Used to Love Her. • While Entertainment Weekly wrote that: • 'Kim', a prequel to '97 Bonnie and Clyde' is a shout-rapped enactment of domestic violence so real it chills... 'Stan' and 'Kim' blaze significant new ground for rap. • In 2001, Robert Christgau told Rolling Stone that songs like Kim and Ghostface Killah's Wildflower employ sexist content in an artful way that offers insight into its pathology, citing them as exceptions to the usual reflexive and violent sexism popularized by rap and heavy metal: The nonsense that 'Kim' advocates the murder of wives who cheat – what an absurdity, and what a disgusting absurdity on the part of people who don't give Eminem credit for being more intelligent than they are, quite frankly. • In 2013 Complex ranked Kim at #21 on their list of the 25 most violent rap songs of all time and at #4 on their list of the 35 most depressing rap songs. • -------------------------------------------------- • Follow Us: • https://www.hhbars.com • / realhhbars • / realhhbars • / realhhbars • #eminem #raplyrics #hiphoplyrics #lyrics
