picking in the third section isnt completely accurate, but notes are.

solo is played with heavy distortion and(with my guitar)using the neck humbucker with
the tone control
most or all of the way down.
a vibrato sounds like it is used on a very fast setting...and it sounds as if a slow vibrato

and some sort of chorus is used for the intro/verse.

the solo at the end is just about the same as the third section of this solo.

Yeah, this song pretty much describes Eminem's fan base.

Yeah, Shimmerchick's pretty right. But I don't think it's actually about him making fun of them as much as he's talking about being tough. The whole song is cocky, and he's blasting people that apply their ego with money.
