This song became what it is in part because MTV gave it heavy airplay. Viewed in a vacuum, it's not great, but based on the trends of that time, imagine a shock value white rapper with a Dr Dre cosign comes along. It was a unique mix people didn't know what to make of, which drove interest, plus MTV saw a marketing money maker. This song did open the door for him and his more lyrical wordplay etc. If he came out super lyrical from the beginning, it'd be hard to have the same level of crossover superstardom he achieved.

You guys have to do Stan and The Way I Am by Eminem.
