Eminem - Stan ft Dido

















Stan is a 2001/2 song by rapper, Eminem ft Dido. The song comes from 'Marshall Mathers LP.' It is also featured on 'Curtain Call: The Hits.'
The video is directed by Phillip Atwell and Dr Dre.

The video opens up in a house to a couple seeming to have relationship issues. Ultimately the song is about 'Stan' writing to his favourite rapper, 'Eminem' The song relates to the video as the lyrics are his letters to him in rap form. He feels as if Eminem never answers his fans. It causes him to make rash decisions in depression and he locks his girlfriend in the trunk of his car and drives o a bridge ending in tragedy. Eminem writes back when it's too late this is also in the lyrics. The song as an overall dark theme with the old black and white shots before the death. A long with the funeral scene and news reports of the crash.
