About a month ago, Joyner Lucas released his second solo studio album Not Now I’m Busy. One of the standout tracks off the album is “I’m Ill,” produced by ADHD Productions and Leo Son.
Joyner Lucas has recently posted a snippet of the music video of “I’m Ill” on his social media accounts and in the caption, he asked Eminem to jump on the remix. “I want @Eminembon the remix of this.” Under the Instagram post, Page Kennedy commented: “I can hear him rip it.” Grafh also replied, saying “Fireee.”
Under the comment section of his Facebook post, one of the fans commented: “Didn’t you throw a slight diss in one of your tracks his way last year? Lol” On that, Joyner replied: “are you on drugs?”
Speaking to The Breakfast Club last month, Joyner Lucas revealed just how hard it is to get in touch with Eminem, comparing it to getting the president on the phone. “Getting on the phone with him, you can probably hop on the phone quicker with Barack [Obama] than you can hop on the phone with Marshall. That n-gga’s calling you from a line with his manager’s assistant who is calling you from a 1800 number and it’s like elevator music and, ‘Please hold, Marshall’s coming to the phone.’”
He continued: “You can’t have his number. Nobody has his number. He’s not accessible. You can’t talk to him. It’s like hopping on the phone with the president. I always wondered why this n-gga move like that. I had a conversation with him on the shoot of ‘Lucky You’ and he was in his trailer and I was like, ‘Yeah man, anytime you wanna talk, you can hit me,’. He was like, ‘Yeah’ but I could tell he was real standoffish. I asked Royce Da 5’9″ why he’s like that. He was like, ‘That n-gga’s been through a lot of s–t. He’s very closed-off from people. I never understood it but when I was experiencing the s–t I was experiencing, I got it instantly. I’m like, ‘This is why this motherf–ker doesn’t want new friends.’”
