Recently Russ set down with DJ Suss One for an interview where he talked about his biggest musical influences. When Suss One asked Russ about his list of the greatest artists of all-time, Russ responded with a chart of his biggest inspirations, including a number of legends:
“I originally got interested in rap and hip-hop via 50 Cent and Eminem. Then I got into, it was in high school, I was a freshman in high school in ’06 so, when Lil Wayne was going crazy. I just remember being in high school when freestyles were dropping and the mixtapes. Wayne was running s**t. I remember what it felt like when ‘A Milli’ dropped. Just the idea of being able to spaz on a beat, that was Wayne.” said Russ.

Marathon, pace it out, you caught in a sprint
Show me who you are once, ain’t gotta show me twice
You can’t sell like Eminem, you look like Obie Trice.”

Eminem and legendary rapper Big Daddy Kane has just hit the studio together. The Brooklyn rapper posted a picture of Eminem and himself on Instagram with the caption: “Chopping it up tonight with this great lyricist Eminem. We spread a lot of love in this conversation.”
Check out the post below:
Eminem has previously shouted out Big Daddy Kane, who is one of the biggest influences of him while growing up, in several interviews and songs. It seems there is mutual respect between the two legendary rappers. Last year Kane compared Eminem to Kobe Bryant of rap: “That era would be the era after JAY-Z, Nas, Biggie, Tupac, so that would be, I assume, Eminem, Jadakiss, Fabolous and Ludacris, maybe. So I guess those would be the elites you would consider the next Kobe ’cause that’s the next era. It would be one of them. I guess lyrically, my favorites would be Em, Jada and Fabolous.”
Treach from legendary hip-hop group Naughty By Nature has recently set down with Superstartvonline where the iconic rapper talked about his solo debut album:
“When Em says he started rap because of me, that feels amazing. When you have one of the hottest to ever do it and he gives you props, it’s amazing. I call him my light-skinned brother. Nobody can never say he came out cause he white boy, wrote for white folks and stuff, no, no, no. No here is what I’mma tell. My bro-bro been calling me out and giving me props for a while.”
“Never in my career I did a solo album. but I got catalogs for years. I want to release it but I ain’t gonna release it to nobody unless Eminem puts it out. He been calling me out now I’m calling him out. Never, ever I attempted to do a solo album. And the only one who I trust with labels and all that, it’s Eminem and if he wants the offer he got it, if he don’t I will never hit the solo album. It will also be first time you hear me and him on records cause you know Em gonna be all on the album.” says Treach

The legendary sportsman celebrated the win with Eminem’s “Without Me.” The video was shared on social media, which was re-posted by Eminem with the caption: “Congrats Tom Brady. They hate us cuz they ain’t us!” Check it out below:
In a recent interview with Queenzflip, Benzino challenged Eminem and Royce Da 5’9″ for a fight on a boxing ring.
“I would step on the ring with any of these ni**as. I’m in a great shape and I would love to. I’ve started training boxing. I would like to step in on the ring with Royce or Eminem. We could do it like men. We got gloves on. We can f**king shake hands and this will be over. There’s a lot of built up animosity so why not go in the ring and put some gloves on like men. We can get money and put it in some charity for kids who needs help. After that it will be over. Lt’s get in there, punch each other, shake hands hag it out, after that we smoke blunt, drink some tea, have a coke and a smile and then life goes on.”
“If me and Eminem got in the room and Em just heard why I did what I did maybe he would understand. Even when Mike Tyson interviewed Eminem, Mike never brought it [Foolish Pride track] up, nobody ever brings it up. Nobody brings up anything about him and what he did and no matter what we do a blogger or podcaster can’t wait to bring up our s**t. He’s so protected. I’ve never seen nobody more protected. I would fight them both. One Weekend Royce and the next weekend Eminem. Em got trained by famous coach in Detroit. I’m sure he got skills, who knows I might get knocked out.”

In one of his My Expert Opinion’s latest episodes, Math Hoffa chopped it up with legendary Method Man where they discussed Snoop Dogg and Eminem situation.
“In a room where we just in it. We boys and s**t like that. We say that kind of s**t to each other. You know ‘I don’t f**k with your s**t, it’s wack’ but when it’s put in a public form, it takes whole different lights. For example, I can tell my best friend to shot the f**k up when me and just him in a room. He will take it no kind of way but when we are in the room full of motherf**kers and I say that then it takes whole different lights. It’s like ‘you gon’ tell me that in front of these ni**as?'”
“Eminem should have look at it as boys being boys. It’s like ‘you don’t f**k with my music? so what? but that was a public platform that’s why it hits little different. So for Eminem who is revered not just by white kids but also blacks cause we know he respects the genre. Eminem can say the wackest bar in the world and they will be like ‘omg dude did you hear what he just said.’ It’s the same thing for Snoop. I’m pretty sure Em heard verses from Snoop and he was like ‘ni**a that s**t was garbage.’ But Em is a type of person that only tell Snoop that in a safe space. In a safe environment. Snoop on the other hand, he ain’t rapper anymore. He’s public persona. He’s beyond superstar. Everything he does it’s a public form.”
“We all know Eminem does not have thick skin. You can tell that by his records that he does not have thick skin and if anybody said anything sideways about him he went ape-s**t” and went in on him to the point where he ruined careers but we loved that s**t cause that where the culture came from. Especially battle rappers. They love that s**t. And I think everybody Eminem ever dissed on a record he hated their a**es but he don’t have that energy with Snoop so it was more hurt than ignite.”
After that, battle rappers talk about Eminem’s very first lines on “Zeus” and Ms. Fit thinks Eminem dissed her with those Tekashi lines cause about a year ago Ms. Fit said MGK’s diss record was better than Eminem’s. She also calls “Zeus” record a phenomenal record. Watch the interview below:
Benzino has recently chopped it up with Queenzflip on live where the two talked about numerous topics, The former The Source magazine owner opens up about his partner Dave Mays and then calls out all the people who owe him an apology including whole Eminem team.
