Canibus talks about Eminem and Nas on Instagram livestream

In one of his recent Instagram livestream, one of the greatest underground rappers, Canibus, talked about Eminem and Nas.

“Shout out to Escobar, everytime we met he had positive words and vibes. He gave me the words of encouragement. I will never forget that. This was early in the game. Definitely sending shout out to Nas.” said Canibus.

Then he continued talking about Eminem: “Marshall, sending shout out to Marshall too. If I could say a name to Marshall to disarm any kind of nonsense that people in the game or not in the game, people who like to start fire, the name I would say is Wendy Day. She was the glue. He was the cohesive, she was what I would call force multiplier in terms of unit cohesion. She was always trying to bring people together. Everybody knows who she is. Amazing person. Shout out to Wendy Day wherever you at. Hip-Hop would have been way different without you. So, Marshall, that’s the name I could say to let you know that that’s a wall that noone else can get behind. That’s a firewall right there. Nobody knows what Wendy Day said to you about me and what she said to me about you. So when you think anything Marshall, just think about WENDY nice little face.”

Couple of months ago, it was also reported that Canibus is releasing a song with Eminem, produced by Dr. Dre as an NFT.

Release date for new Snoop Dogg & Eminem song is here!

Mt. Westmore, a hip hop supergroup composed of California-based legendary rappers Snoop Dogg, E-40, Too Short and Ice Cube, are dropping new album soon.

The group have released new single “Bad MF’s” and the release date of the album came with it. The self-titled project is dropping on April 20, 2022 and it includes only one feature: EMINEM.

Here is what Snoop previously said about the song:

“There is Snoop Dogg and Eminem song on my Westmore album. It is called “From Detroit to the LBC.” That motherf**ker slapped. That s**t is HUH! It was very challenging for me. Eminem really f**king shot at me. He shot his shot and as a rapper that’s what you want when you get a feature, to have to work you f**king a** off. He is going that hard because he knows I’m going to match him on the same level and that’s what it is when you making records with people that you love. It’s competitive but for the right reason. To bring the best out of each other.”

“That’s a monster jam! It’s so good Dr. Dre said ‘why you ain’t give me one like that?!'” Snoop told Ebro Darden in an interview on Apple Music’s Beats 1.

As the single best-selling artist of all time, a 15-time Grammy and Academy award winner, 6 diamond certification holder and the first artist to have 10 consecutive No. 1 debut albums on the US Billboard 200, Eminem’s accolades speak for themselves.

His world-renowned status solidified hip-hop as the most commercially successful music on the planet and deserved a spot on the list of Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame nominees in the very first year of eligibility.

Twista has recently visited NORE and DJ EFN on Drink Champs where the three played QuickTime of Slime game during their almost 2 hours interview.

The rules of the game are as following: NORE asks the guest tough questions with two choices, if the guest answers with “both” he drinks. If he comes out with one of the choices, he does not.

One of the questions was, Eminem or Busta Rhymes.

It seems, it was too hard to answer for Twista, so he drank: “Damn, I have to take a shot.”

Twista had a hard time choosing between Tech N9ne and Eminem too when DJ EFN asked so he drank it too. “Nah, you gotta drink on that one. These are my brothers and its actually hard to choose. They go hard man.”

Kinda how it is like today but back then it was some rap battle s**t. It used to be intense and everybody knew Eminem was the king of all that s**t. He was undefeated. He was like Floyd Mayweather of rap battle s**t… Eminem returning to battle rap? I don’t know if it will ever happen. I can’t never say never.” – said Bizarre.

Grafh: The Game is doing that because he wants to be mentioned next to Eminem. I do s**t like that. That’s like Chess move. He’s not dissing him because he is just out of nowhere. He is like, ‘I want to be compared to this person, let me put my name in the same sentence.’ He’s smart. That’s business movies but Em is too lyrical. That ni**a is animal. Em influenced my s**t too. Em is like one of the GOATs to me, to keep it a buck with you. That ni**a is stupid, his skillset is alien-like.”

H2O: I feel like Game been reaching. Eminem is Eminem. So what better person come when you doing an interview, what better person to come at than Eminem? He’s probably the biggest name in hip-hop.

ESSO: The Game can rhyme. He can f**king rap but is he rapping on Em’s level? Nah. Everybody knows that. But it’s entertainment. We can enjoy it.

Grafh: I’m not even a huge fan of new Eminem but his skill set, ni**a! What you taking about? Let’s keep it a buck.”
