"I'm Not Afraid"

     On April 29, 2010 Eminem came out with his hit single, "I'm Not Afraid". The song is part of his seventh studio album, "Recovery". It is classified as hip hop and his vocals are sung mainly over a guitar, synthesizer, and piano; no auto-tune was used on Eminem's voice. He has won many awards and has gotten mainly good criticism on the song. Eminem talks about a positive change against drugs and violence.

     I really enjoy this song because it was one of the first songs I heard when I started getting into the rap/hip hop genre of music. It is has very meaningful lyrics (which you know is something I love-as shown in first few posts) and is very clear, simple, and to the point with them. It is not as if the song has some deep meaning to it. The music video explains the song very well too, having Eminem display courage and confidence with his actions, but also with the setting and event that happen in the music video. One, including Eminem jumping off a cliff. This song to me is a big staple of Eminem himself.. Even though the song is old it shows off Eminem as he is know, passionate and caring for his career and life.

     Unfortunately, I cannot show you a music or lyric video because Eminem does use a lot of foul language, although the music video is perfectly fine, it still has audio.

     Fortunately, I can show you an audio video of just the instrumental for "I'm Not Afraid". To see that video please click this link, "http://www.youtube.com/embed/zoHPzpnkOKk".
