So Far...
"So Far..." is a song by American hip hop recording artist Eminem, taken from his eighth studio album ''The Marshall Mathers LP 2'' (2013).

The song was produced by the album's executive producer Rick Rubin. "So Far" features samples from the Joe Walsh recording "Life's Been Good" and also contains samples of "P.S.K. What Does It Mean?" as performed by Schooly D, as well as "The Real Slim Shady" and ''I'm Back'' by himself. The song was met with generally positive reviews from music critics upon the album's release and debuted at number three on the US ''Billboard'' Bubbling Under R&B/Hip-Hop Singles.
== Background and theme ==
In the song, Eminem details pitfalls of fame and the tendency for things to go wrong at the worst possible moment, as he uses the song to take a look at his life of living in the "glass house of fame." Also he states the awkwardness that interacting with fans can be sometimes. As explained during an interview with Sway Calloway.〔〔 Additionally, he references two of his songs from ''The Marshall Mathers LP'', "I'm Back" and "The Real Slim Shady". At the end of the second verse, he raps "The other day someone got all elaborate/ And stuck a head from a fucking dead cat in my mailbox", a reference to the song "I'm Back", where he raps "I used to get punked and bullied on my block/ 'Till I cut a kitten's head off and stuck it in this kid's mailbox". During this line, the beat also changes to the original beat from "I'm Back". He then says "Went to Burger King, they spit on my onion rings/ I think my karma is catching up with me". This creates a continuation from "The Real Slim Shady", where he raps "And every single person is a Slim Shady lurking/ He could be working at Burger King, spitting on your onion rings." Here the beat then changes to the beat used in "The Real Slim Shady". He also mentions listening to Ludacris while complaining that technology is hurting the distribution of real rap, and name drops his Shady Records-signee Yelawolf. Eminem also states his self-deprecating observations of aging.
