Eminem is apparently a “criminal” because of his controversial words. People actually picketed because of Eminem’s lyrics and called all sorts of names.

Even if Eminem doesn’t say nothing, people will still judge him a criminal. But Eminem doesn’t care, which is a common theme throughout The Marshall Mathers LP

There is a reference to “The Trashmen : Surfin' Bird”. In the song they sing “The bird is the word”. Eminem says “I don’t gotta say a WORD i just flip em the BIRD. So the "bird”(middle finger) is his word.

Not taking nothing from no one
