** One of the last lines of "Bad Meets Evil" is "See you in hell for the sequel." Eleven years later, Em and Royce da 5'9" reunited as Bad Meets Evil for - you guessed it - ''Hell: The Sequel''.
** The second scenario in "Guilty Conscience" stars someone named Stan. And no, he isn't related to Stanley Mitchell, the character from "Stan" on ''Music/TheMarshallMathersLP''.

* BrickJoke: In "Bad Meets Evil", Em's song with then-friend Royce da 5'9, the end of the chorus goes "See you in Hell for the sequel." Afterwards, they had a lengthy falling out, but once their mutual friend Proof died, they patched up their issues and released a joint album called ''Hell: The Sequel'' in 2011. Given how long it took Em and Royce to get around to making it, one can say we saw the sequel in DevelopmentHell.

* EstablishingCharacterMoment: The page quote at the top, considering it's specially made to not only rope in the children that would become big fans of him, but also to make a satirical point about how parents get worked up about him yet let their kids watch desensitized violence in the form of cartoons a la ''WesternAnimation/TomAndJerry''.

* EstablishingCharacterMoment: The page image quote at the top, considering it's which is the opening line of the album's first verse (in "My Name Is"), sets the tone for Em's persona pretty well. It has further been interpreted as having been specially made to not only rope in the children young audiences that would become big fans of him, but also to make a satirical point about how parents get worked up about him yet let their kids watch desensitized violence in the form of cartoons a la like ''WesternAnimation/TomAndJerry''.

* CrapsackWorld: "Brain Damage" takes place in a world where teachers will not only allow bullying to happen, but will ''assist'' the bully in beating up their victim.
** Arguably the whole album takes place in one.

* TheDogBitesBack: "Brain Damage" has many fantasized scenarios of Em getting back at bullies that have tormented him. For example, after he gets brutally assaulted by a bully near the end of the song (the school principal even comes in only to assist the bully in beating him), Em plays dead to get his assailants to leave. Once they do, he turns the tables by defeating the bully with appliances from the janitor's closet.
