Xzibit talks about Eminem, Dr. Dre and the possibility of “Bi*ch Please III”

Xzibit has recently set down with HotNewHipHop to talk about many things including his upcoming album, Dr. Dre and Eminem. You can check out the conversation below:

Interviewer: It’s cool to see you guys are both putting out music still. I noticed too, you’ve been hanging out with Dr. Dre quite a bit, working in his studio. As someone who works with him a lot, what would you say Dr. Dre is bringing to the table when he comes in to oversee a session.

Xzibit: Well, Dr. Dre is the chairman of the board. Lets get that straight, off-top. And Dr. Dre brings the table to the table. [laughs] That is what he brings to the table. He lives in the studio, first of all. So, you know, with his level of expectation of himself and his music, I do not think people really understand and grasp how strong that process is. I can not speak on his timetable. I think that every time he is come out with something, it has made an impact and changed the direction of music, so I have no questions about his timing. Yeah, when you see me in the studio with Dre, we working on stuff for myself, we working on stuff for him, we working on stuff for everything. But as far as when he releases, that is up to him. But he never disappoints, so I just let people talk until they actually get it, and then when they get it, it is a piping hot cup of ‘Shut the f**k up.’ [laughs]

Interviewer: I am looking forward to your new album. So I have to ask this, what are the chances, and this is just coming from a fan here, but what are the chances that we can ever see a “B**ch Please III”?

Xzibit: Wooh! That is a Dr. Dre question. [laughs]

Interviewer: Well, if I ever get him on the phone again, I will definitely tell him: ”B**ch Please III.”

Xzibit: Absolutely!

Interviewer: But you are a key part of all of them, though, just as much as him! So maybe if you slide up that request, hit up Dre, maybe put the request in…I think a lot of people right now, if people saw a collaboration between you, Dre, Eminem, and Snoop right now, I really do think it would break the internet, to be honest. I really do think that.

Xzibit: Wow, that is dope, man, thank you. I will see if I can talk to Dre about it, but we will see. [Laughs]

Interviewer: On that note, I know you and Dr. Dre are super tight, but do you still at all keep in touch with Eminem? I know you guys have worked together so many times, and lets be honest, you have a great track record of collaborations, like “Don’t Approach Me…” and “My Name.”

Xzibit: I have not talked to Marshall in a minute, man, but you know, it is always the same, I got a lot of respect for him and his team. When we see each other, it is all love.

On his upcoming album:

Denaun Porter: I am at 85 percent of being finished with my album but we are here to have fun because I got tired of doing songs. I actually got more songs than I got ideas. There’s so many songs.

About Eminem on DJ Premier track

Marv Won: To this day, I’ve never heard Eminem on DJ Premier beat. That’s f**king wild to me. I’m not saying as a business wise but as a fan.

Denaun Porter: You know what I think happened was…And I think Em will tell you this. We will ask him when we get him here but I think he just started having so much fun making beats. He’ll keep going. And he’ll keep messing with it until he becomes perfectionist and you lose the fun. I think that’s what happened but I’m gonna ask him. But from what I see Em got to the point where he just loved making beats.

MGK says his Hotel Diablo album was not welcomed because of Eminem

In a new interview with Dave Franco for Interview Magazine, MGK has revealed that his Hotel Diablo album flopped because of Eminem feud and he almost gave up.

Interviewer: Were there moments when you almost gave up because you were killing yourself for your music and it still felt like you were misunderstood?

Machine Gun Kelly: Yes. The 2019 album, Hotel Diablo is that for me, because that was the first time I really expressed my true self with no outside influence, meaning the label. As a hip-hop album, it is flawless front to back, and also a hint at the evolution of how I went into a pop-punk album.

Machine Gun Kelly: But it was coming off the tail-end of that infamous beef with Eminem. So no one wanted to give it the time of day. It is like if you make a shitty movie and then you come out with a great movie right after, but people want to focus on the fact that they hated whatever you just did. What I did in the beef was exactly what it should be, but that project was not welcomed. The next album came from already feeling like I’d counted out, so I didn’t even care what the public was going to think. That’s why the project was ironically my best received one, because it was the most effortless, with the least outside influence.

“What I did in the beef was exactly what it should be, but that project was not welcomed.”

– MGK (November 28, 2020)

Hotel Diablo album was released in 2019 as the follow up for his Binge EP and it debuted at number five on the Billboard 200, with approximately 39,000 album equivalent units sold. It jumped down to number 20 in its second week, selling 20,585 album equivalent units. The album received generally mixed reviews from critics.
