Even in your mixtape era, is there a verse that stands out in your mind where you are like ‘nah, this the hardest s–t I’ve written.’? Bow Wow: The new s–t that’s coming. When I drop it, it’s gonna be a lot of blogging, a lot of talking about the lyrics. It’s very Eminem-ish.Interviewer: Do you have a favorite Eminem verse growing up? Bow Wow: Eminem is hard! I don’t even have a favorite in particular. Every verse is hard for me. He’s so diverse. So talented. I can’t lie, I’m influenced by him in a lot of ways when it comes to rapping, taking me time like how I dissect my bars, wordplay, changing the pitches in my voices. That’s why I can’t wait to drop this record.Watch the interview below: RECENT RELATED ARTICLESEminem Honors Proof on the 20th Anniversary of His PassingApril 11, 2026Ultra-Rare Signed Eminem “Infinite” Vinyl Hits Auction: Only 2 Known to ExistApril 11, 2026Which Record Is Bigger: Eminem’s “Lose Yourself” or 50 Cent’s “In Da Club”April 10, 2026Best-Selling Rappers Of All Time Worldwide Have Been RevealedApril 10, 2026Dr. Dre Officially Reaches Billionaire Status: Eminem Reflects on his PerfectionismApril 10, 2026DJ Mormile Reveals How Drake’s “Forever” With Eminem Actually HappenedApril 6, 2026 Bow WowEminem
