How many words do you think rhyme with “orange”? Most people say none, but Eminem proves them wrong in the most creative way. He sits in a small room surrounded by hundreds of scrap papers with words scribbled on them. He breaks “orange” into two syllables, bending its sound until it fits perfectly into his rhymes.
Eminem talks about reading the dictionary as a kid just to collect more words. There is a quiet intensity in the way he explains it, like language is his secret weapon. He turns something as boring as a dictionary into a story about survival and creativity. This is where his love for words shows and why fans still see him as one of the greatest writers in music.
