Feb 11, 2023 Em was definitely inspired by Paper Trails, i remember him bringing it up more than once in interviews when asked what he was listening to prior to recovery. I always thought the random pop sample of "what is love" was inspired by the maya hee maya hoo sample
Feb 11, 2023 Whenever someone puts Jay-Z in the top 10 rappers of all time I laugh my a--- off, he’s not even top 30
Feb 11, 2023 Most overrated, overhyped artist in Hip Hop. Drake a close second. How Jayz is looked at one of the “Best to ever do it “ is ridiculous to me. Just makes boring a--- music with the same monotone effort that he has done throughout his career.
Feb 11, 2023 This is the fourth time Eminem collaborates with Horseshoe g---. Back in 2020, Crook and his brothers dropped three remarkable joints, all produced by Em: “Hot Sauce”, “Skip This Ad”, and “Liquor Store Church”.
Feb 11, 2023 Em’s feud with Moby was one of the loudest cross-genres beefs in the 2000s. There was more going on behind the scenes than we knew, reveals Moby. The topic came up when the NME magazine was quizzing him on his own history, checking if “sex, drugs and rock and roll” really k--- brain cells enough to wipe out the memories. Apparently not, at least if you are an ascetic vegan techno artist. Here is a question about Eminem: Which rapper used to s---t an effigy of you on-stage every night during his early 2000s US tour? “That would be my fellow white-trash suburban peer, Marshall Mathers!” CORRECT. AKA Eminem. His feud with you is well-documented and included dissing you on the track ‘Without Me’, in which he aimed a homophobic slur at you as well as the lyrics: ‘You’re too old, let go / It’s over, nobody listens to techno’. “The only time we ever ran into each other afterwards was famously documented at the [2002] MTV Music Awards when my friend Robert Smigel, who voices Triumph the Insult Comic Dog, thought it would be funny to speak to Emimen and I together – Eminem spent the evening scowling at me and got so upset he punched the puppet! I hope if we met up now, he’d laugh about that because it was bizarre and strange!” Surprisingly, Eminem’s hatred of you wasn’t a pantomime act. Half-way through the awards ceremony, he allegedly told you ‘You’re dead’ and gave you an unusual drawing… “Yeah. I kept the picture — I had it framed! He handed me a drawing of him strangling me, and it was a really great illustration! What was endearing was that on the back-side of the paper, he had started drawing it then decided it wasn’t good enough. So he had a first draft on one side and then the fully-executed version on the other. For the longest time, no matter where I went, someone would yell out of a car window: ‘Nobody listen to techno!’. So I’d like to thank Marshall for introducing me to his legion of 13-year-old, future-Trump-supporting fans. None of these people were running out to listen to my music, so it did in a negative way introduce me to a weird demographic of right-wing Americans who otherwise I would probably have had no contact with.” Looks like Moby is still bitter and defends his resentment by making sweeping generalisations about Em’s fanbase.
Feb 11, 2023 really dope, another great beat that Em wasted on others. But lyrically this is really top notch and everybody kills it.
Feb 11, 2023 Jay Z is overrated but Eminem isn’t? Interesting. I’ll write that one down and save it for later.
Feb 11, 2023 Jay z is under Beyoncé s shoes for a while. He used to be the thing back in the day but he didn’t manage to be consistent.
