I don’t get why Eminem keeps signing artists. He clearly doesn’t care about Shady Records anymore. Doesn’t even bother mentioning his artists in interviews.

One thing I've realized with the whole Old Em vs New Em is that a good amount of new Em bars just... don't hit when he finishes them? Like I was listening to Moon Man & Slim and so many bars just feel like they fall flat, whereas almost everything in his peak albums just connects and hits really well.

Like "Toll-free number, only way you'll ever have a hot line" reminds me of that "uhh, okay?" meme

But you go back and listen to his older s--- and he's way more slick with it and it lands perfectly everytime

d--- good looking out. And rereading this description I for sure thought it was ELAM. Interesting that he liked the other song so much lol. But yeah bro definitely asked about No Apologies and please let us know what you find out!

I’ve slowly realised it it isn’t just as simple as getting the Bass Brothers back in tbh. They did SSLP together with Em. But the best stuff from MMLP and TES was actually just Jeff Bass collabing with Em, I don’t think Mark was around much.

But I realised all that classic music wasn’t just Eminem rapping over Bass Bros beats. It was actually a very well-put together team that Eminem had assembled.

DJ Head - started as a DJ but in the studio would bring the crisp drum patterns for Eminem that we’re all familiar with, he did the drums for Without Me, SFTM, Renegade, Cleanin Out My Closet, Words Are Weapons and many other classics. Unfortunately Em stopped working with him after TES, because he had learned how to do the drums himself on the MPC by then, so it seems he didn’t need him anymore. (Big mistake imo)

Jeff Bass - Amazingly talented multi-instrumentalist. Played bass, guitar and piano on Eminems songs. Would create the melodic foundation to beats Eminem would use, and seemed to easily turn Eminem’s ideas, like humming melodies, into reality. He always did classic intros and build ups for Ems songs like Lose Yourself intro, Til I Collapse intro, The Kiss (Skit), SFTM intro, and many others. Would also sometimes solo or play outros too, like the Marshall Mathers solo at the end and (I think?) the mouth organ at the end of Say Goodbye To Hollywood. Stopped working with Em after TES, we don’t really know why, although they apparently worked together again in 06/07 for some sessions, in which the song Beautiful was created.

Steve King - Another multi-instrumentalist but fundamentally a guitarist, Also a studio engineer who would help with the recording side of things and would actually mix songs. He mixed Lose Yourself and a lot of TES I believe. He played guitar on songs like Superman, White America and Til I Collapse. There’s some videofootage of him in the studio during the D12 world sessions when Eminem is crating My Band

Luis Resto - We all know about Resto as he is the only one from this list (except Mike Strange) that still works with Eminem. A classical pianist that also plays guitar. The majority of self-produced stuff from Encore onwards by Eminem is pretty much just him and Resto (although Steve King contributed a lot to Encore). I believe he was introduced to Eminem by Jeff Bass in early 2001. I personally theorised that No Apologies (EDIT: I mean “Girls” from Devils Night) was actually one of the first songs him and Eminem solely worked on together. It seems he was brought in to add little bits of emotion and melody to the tracks, usually the third verse. He did the instrumentation that elevates the third verses on songs like Lose Yourself and SFTM. He also worked on SGTH, Soldier, Square Dancr and Hailies Song. It seems like Eminem pretty much replaced Jeff Bass’ role with Resto.

Mike Strange - mixing engineer that also still works with Eminem today. I believe he was an assistant mixing engineer on most of TES. Although I personally think from recovery onwards, I think since he became Eminems main mixing engineer, some of the stuff he’s done has been very iffy. Even on DoSS I think some of the vocals are horribly mixed.

Anyway, for me this was the dream team. The avengers for Eminems classic sound. That’s why I don’t think it’s as simple as just “getting the bass bros back” although I’d definitely take that at this point over anything else. Obviously we will never get Steve King back in the team. But getting Head, Bass and Resto together again would be absolutley mind blowing imo.

Eminem could easily release a lost tapes. And use AI like he did in houdini to look like slim shady in the music videos. People would eat that s--- up.

 

Aug 26, 2025

d--- they deleted the tweet. Luckily I got a screenshot.

 

Aug 26, 2025

idk it seems crazy to announce a song (let alone 2) before you even know you CAN release them

To be fair, Eminem’s team would be the types to drop a deluxe of a f---ing soundtrack lmao. They are absolutely shameless.

 

Aug 26, 2025

Just Imagine how many songs of this caliber is in the vault.
f--- me he was so f---ing good back then

 

Aug 26, 2025

I do love Em's recent trend of bringing back older tracks and breathing new life into them. Wish it would lead to a lost tapes style thing with UNTOUCHED versions of songs. No AI, no rerecorded vocals, etc. Censor Kim's name if you have to though, I don't mind that

 

Aug 26, 2025

Nah bro, they rereleased the curtain call stan live s--- with elton john and added another one as well, eat it up right now, buy the vinyl

 

Aug 26, 2025
