Trivia
- “Still Don’t Give A Fuck” serves as a sequel to the album’s first single, “Just Don’t Give A Fuck.” Eminem later attempted to create a third version for his next album, The Marshall Mathers LP, which resulted in two songs: “Marshall Mathers” and “Criminal.” He later said that “Marshall Mathers” failed to capture the feeling needed to be considered a true sequel, whereas “Criminal” did, describing it as his new “Still Don’t Give A Fuck.”
- The song’s opening line, “A lot of people ask me…,” is repeated on later songs: “Criminal,” “Underground,” and “Temporary.” Like “Still Don’t Give A Fuck,” both “Criminal” and “Underground” close their respective albums.
Words from Eminem
“This was my manager Paul’s concept. He called me one day while I was in Cali, saying “You need to do a Just Don’t Give A Fuck, Part 2.” I responded, “Yeah... still don’t give a fuck.” He said, “Just make it have the same feel” … The drums on this are the same drums as on “Just Don’t Give a Fuck.” Only difference was that we added a high hat all through it. Whereas in “Just Don’t...” the high hat continues so it gives a little more drive to it. To top it off, Jeff from F.B.T. had this ill-ass guitar loop and I thought, “This is it,” and then I came up with “I’m zonin’ off of one joint / Stoppin’ a limo, hopped in the window, shoppin’ a demo / at gunpoint” … I wanted this song to sum up the whole album. Basically what the song was sayin’ is that no matter what you say about me, or what you think I should do, or what you think of me, of how I should sound or anything... I don’t give a fuck. This is me. I’ma be it and I’ma stay that way.
