Joyner Lucas names artists who are better than him

Couple of days ago, Joyner Lucas released his much anticipated album titled Not Now I’m Busy with features from Jelly Roll, Twista, NBA YoungBoy, Logic, Conway The Machine, the late legend DMX and more. To promote the album, the Worcester, Massachusetts-born rapper sat down with Sway In The Morning on Shade 45 where he talked about his new album, DMX influence, Big 3 convo and more. At one point of the interview, Joyner listed artists that he feels are better than him and there is no weakness to acknowledge it.

“I never really had a desire to be the king of anything. It’s just not my personality to be self-proclaimed to anything. I just kinda allow people place me where they wanna place me but that does not mean I’m not competitive. I just never really care to be like ‘I’M THE BEST, I’m THE KING. I’M THE BEST RAPPER IN THE WORLD.’ It’s all subjective.” said Joyner Lucas.

Then he continued: “A lot of people say you should want to be the best, you should say you are the best and nobody’s better than you. They think it’s weak to say somebody is better than you. I disagree with that. I don’t feel that at all. I feel like there are lots of artist that are better than me. Eminem is better than me. Drake is better than me. I don’t have a problem saying that. People might look at me as weak for saying that but that’s just how I feel.”

“I feel like certain artists are better than me. Do I feel like Drake is better storyteller record to me? F–k no! There’s no way. He can’t make “I’m Not Racist,” he can’t make “Ross Capicchioni,” he can’t make “Best For Me,” but he can make “God’s Plan,” I can’t make that s–t. He can make “Hotline Bling,” I can’t do that s–t. He can hop into all these different lanes and s–t and do all these “Controller.” He’s a hybrid for real. He can sing and s–t. I can’t sing. But I think he’s overall better than me. All these stats and all the things that he could do that I could not. Kendrick can get lyrically better than me. He get busy and I love that about Kendrick. So to answer your question, I don’t care about being the besI’m just a fan of other artists bro.” Joyner Lucas added.

Kurupt says Rakim & Eminem are equally greatest MCs

A long-standing soldier of the west coast rap movement, Kurupt has recently attended the ceremony of Dr. Dre getting a star on Hollywood Walk Of Fame. TMZ Hip-Hop got a few seconds to chop it up with the legendary rapper outside Dre’s WOF ceremony. When he was asked where Dr. Dre ranks in greatest producers of all time Kurupt picked Dre as rap’s greatest producer, while also giving Eminem his props as one of the greats, beside hip-hop icon, Rakim.

“Dr. Dre is number one greatest producers of all time in hip-hop. Eminem is one of the greatest emcees. Where would I rank him? I don’t. There are too many greats. He’s up there with Rakim. No one ranks higher. No one ranks higher than R (Rakim) but Em (Eminem) is with the R. You know why? Cause they are equal.” said Kurupt.

Em likely wouldn’t argue about Kurupt’s statement. He calls Rakim one of the G.O.A.T.s as well, and credits the “Paid in Full” creator with being the first MC he heard using complex rhyme patterns which ultimately pushing Slim Shady to take things to another level.

Kurupt is also one of the main influences of Eminem. Em even listed him on “Till I Collapse” from The Eminem Show album when he spat the verse about the greatest rappers: “I got a list, here’s the order of my list that it’s in / It goes: Reggie, Jay-Z, 2Pac and Biggie / André from OutKast, Jada, Kurupt, Nas, and then me / But in this industry I’m the cause of a lot of envy./ So when I’m not put on this list, the s–t does not offend me.”

In a new interview with James Corden, Dr. Dre crowned Eminem as the best MC to ever touch the microphone. “I think he is the best emcee ever. Point blank, period. Of course there gonna be arguments about that because he’s white guy, you know. I don’t think anyone that is rapping can touch Eminem on microphone.” said Dre.

Esham says he’s only rapper who ever defeated Eminem, claims he never seen “8 Mile” movie

Detroit hip-hop pioneer Esham has recently sat down with Kid L where he discussed his timeline from before rap, during rap, his first album, his encounters with D12 and Eminem, and his closure of the situation with Detroit legend Big Proof. They also discussed his concern for culture protection for the city of Detroit.

Esham lying about 8 Mile
Proof from D12 used to go to my high school. I’m the person that made him want to be a rapper. I had rap records out when I was in high school. I was that person who did all of that. And me, I would help everybody, that’s just how I was raised. There is no outlets for musicians in Detroit. There is no Universal Records downtown, there is no Interscope record downtown so that frustration, that’s what got people out here just mad because they’ll do anything to get that record deal. I’ve seen so many people in the movie 8 Mile, none of them could get a record deal after that. Not one of them. Even being in that huge movie. It was a fantasy or something? I never seen 8 Mile movie. I live on 8 Mile, I know what real 8 Mile look like. It’s a rap movie about a rapper that be punching motherf–kers in the face of the city of Detroit. That s–t never happened. I got a question for Em. Why Proof could not play Proof in 8 Mile?

Esham lying about Eminem restricting Swifty McVay, Bizarre and Kuniva from mentioning D12 by using the N word
Did I have opportunity to sign to Shady Records? No. Why would I want to be a part of that. I don’t have nothing against them but they don’t actually put records out. I mean, whose records did they put out? Is it a real record company? Last time I checked Em said don’t say D12 in any records no more. He was like ‘y’all motherf–kers don’t say don’t say D12. It’s heavy on the ER when he said n-gger to him too. Did he call them n–gers or something? He was like ‘f–k you n-ggers.’

Esham lying about Proof and getting beaten up by D12 members
Bizarre said that they jumped me back in the days. First of all, Bizarre was over there getting some hot dogs from hot dog stands. He was not even there. Rufus needs to stop lying. But in all fairness, that was about the City of Detroit, that was not about no raps I made. We come from era of rap where you gon’ say my name then b–ch I’m coming. And I’m the only person that lyrically defeated Eminem. Hands down, flawless victory. He didn’t even respond. It was like me beating up on a baby. I don’t have nothing against these guys. You have to ask them why would y’all be talking about this man and he from the city. I just feel like it was an attack on my character. People who physically assaulted me…I’m from Detroit man, we really don’t be talking about that type s–t. It was 30 of them n-ggas but I’m still here. We were fighting Proof and them. Proof was the one we were fighting but Proof ain’t here anymore. And I squashed all that with Proof. I’m the reason that beef got squashed. Proof called me right before he died. He made up with me. He told me bunch of stuff about his label and all the discrepancies that he had and all the stuff that was going on over there and what Paul Rosenberg and all of them were doing over there to him and how they played him and stuff like that. I know what he said and I know what he went through. But we were man enough to squash that s–t.

Esham justifying himself form mentioning Eminem’s daughter Hailie in a diss record
Yeah, I said something about Eminem’s daughter. So what? That n-gga can say anything he wants about somebody. When you say my name, it’s on! This is f–king rap n-gga. You said something about Christopher Reeve when he was paralyzed? What about his family? You said something about Michael Jackson, that’s my motherf–king boy, now what?! Ain’t no motherf–kin’ ‘you said something’. If he still butur about that, f–king good! Good b-tch! I’ll say it again! F–k him.”

Eminem and Esham had a beef in the early 2000s. Esham released a disstrack on Eminem called “Chemical Imbalance” where he also dissed Eminem’s little daughter, Hailie. D12 members beat up Esham because of that song. Esham suffered a broken nose, ruptured eyeball, mild concussion and a loss of hearing in his left ear…You can watch the new interview below:

Watch: Dr. Dre, Snoop Dogg, 50 Cent on Jimmy Kimmel Live

After getting a star on Hollywood Walk Of Fame, Dr. Dre sat down with Jimmy Kimmel on Jimmy Kimmel Live with Snoop Dogg and 50 Cent where the legendary hip-hop producer talked about Snoop Dogg’s upcoming album, Eminem’s upcoming album, making of “Get Rich Or Die Tryin‘” and “Forgot About Dre” and more. The crew also did “Dre’s Anatomy” sketch for JKL.

Dr. Dre on “Forgot About Dre”
Usually, the track is laid out [before the lyrics]. Every now and then artist comes in with the lyrics first and that has only happened couple of times in my career. One time it was with Eminem on a song called “Forgot About Dre.” Eminem wrote that. He had the entire song written before the track so we had to make the track work for his lyrics. He wrote that entire song.

Dr. Dre on Snoop Dogg’s upcoming album “Missionary” which is entirely produced by Dre himself
Let me take it from here. As long as we’ve been known each other…The first album I’ve done with Snoop was in 1993. And it’s the only album I ever produced on Snoop. 30 years ago, so now, believe it or not, we are getting together again and we are almost done with the album. The first album was called “Doggystyle” so we decided to flip it and call this one “Missionary.” [Snoop Dogg added: “It’s gonna come out. Dr. Dre will begin mixing in mid April.”]

Dr. Dre and 50 Cent on “Get Rich Or Die Tryin'”
50 Cent: Dre is complete inspiration for me. I’ve been listening to his music before it was even a serious idea for me to get next to him. And when I got to the studio, even our first record, it was four days, I think we did eight joints…
Dr. Dre: No, it was seven days. Okay, let me tell you the story. Let me interrupt 50 for a second. So, I did “Get Rich Or Die Tryin'” and it was supposed to be me producing half of the album and Eminem producing the other half. I was in the studio with 50 for just seven days of my entire half of the album. He came in there and went crazy. Writing, alright put up another one, writing, put up another one and we got entire thing done in seven days. At least my half. That’s what happened.

50 Cent reveals he’s featured on “The Missionary” album
I got one with Snoop. I’ll tell you how that works. I get text message from Dre, I get text message from Em almost simultaneously and it goes like ‘stop what you doing, I don’t care if you producing television shows, I don’t care what you doing, stop and figure out how to get this done for us right now because it’s that urgent.’ And then I went and wrote my part. When I get it done, I sent it back and I get fire emojis back cause Dre usually don’t say things.

Dr. Dre on new Eminem album
Let me tell you something. Let me explain something right now. Eminem is working on his own album which is coming out this year and I actually talked to him and he said it was okay for me to make that announcement right here on this show. So yeah, the album coming out, I got songs on it and it’s fire. I’m actually going to hear entire album for the first time tomorrow. He holds his music close to his chest so I have not heard everything. I have not even heard everything complete that I’ve done but I’m gonna hear it and he’s putting out album this year. There are things on there that I have to mix that I’ve done but I got a chance to hear album in its entirety.

Dr. Dre announces new Eminem album

Iconic record producer and hip-hop artist Dr. Dre has been selected to receive the 2,775th star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. The Compton legend was honored on March 19 at 11:30 a.m. on 6840 Hollywood Boulevard, just in front of Jimmy Kimmel Studios. He received his star in the category of music recording. Fellow hip-hop icons Eminem, Snoop Dogg, 50 Cent and Xzibit and music mogul Jimmy Iovine also joined emcee Big Boy, who was a speaker at the ceremony. They all headed to Jimmy Kimmel Live where Dr. Dre announced that new Eminem album is coming this year.

“Let me tell you something. Let me explain something right now. Eminem is working on his own album which is coming out this year and I actually talked to him and he said it was okay for me to make that announcement right here on this show. So yeah, the album coming out, I got songs on it and it’s fire. I’m actually going to hear entire album for the first time tomorrow. He holds his music close to his chest so I have not heard everything. I have not even heard everything complete that I’ve done but I’m gonna hear it and he’s putting out album this year. There are things on there that I have to mix that I’ve done but I got a chance to hear album in its entirety.” said Dr. Dre during his visit on Jimmy Kimmel Live.

Last time Eminem dropped the full body of work was more than 4 years ago. Em dropped his 11th solo studio album Music to Be Murdered By on January 17, 2020, through Shady Records, Aftermath Entertainment, and Interscope Records. Just like Eminem’s previous studio album Kamikaze (2018), the album was released with no prior announcement. The album was produced by many producers, with Eminem and Dr. Dre serving as executive producers. It features guest appearances from Skylar Grey, Young M.A, Royce da 5’9″, White Gold, Ed Sheeran, the late Juice WRLD, Black Thought, Q-Tip, Denaun, Anderson .Paak, Don Toliver, Kxng Crooked and Joell Ortiz.

The album debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200, selling 279,000 album-equivalent units in its first week. Subsequently, Eminem became the first artist to have ten consecutive number-one albums in the US and one of six artists to have released at least ten US number-one albums. Music to Be Murdered By reached number one in 16 countries. Music critics praised Eminem’s lyrical abilities and the improved production after Kamikaze, while criticism was directed towards the album’s formulaic song structure, lack of innovation, and shock value.

On December 18, 2020, Eminem released a deluxe version of the album, named Music to Be Murdered By – Side B, without any prior announcement. It includes the original album’s 20 tracks along with 16 new ones. It includes a variety of features, with guest appearances from Skylar Grey, DJ Premier, Ty Dolla $ign, Dr. Dre, Sly Pyper, MAJ, and White Gold…Check out Dr. Dre’s announcement of new Eminem album below:

Xzibit shares crazy fact about “What’s The Difference” song with Dr. Dre & Eminem

Xzibit has recently sat down with Cece Valencia on 935 KDAY where the Detroit legend talked about his upcoming album, Dr. Dre getting a star on Hollywood Walk Of Fame next to Snoop Dogg, Dre’s role in hip-hop and shared unknown fact about recording process of “What’s The Difference” track with Dre and Eminem.

Xzibit on Up In Smoke Tour and Dr. Dre’s impact on Hip-Hop culture
Up In Smoke is always gonna be like a turning point and a highlight of my career. I’ll never forget that tour. It was definitely the beginning of a bunch of great experiences so yeah, shout out to Dr. Dre, he’s about to receive a star on the Hollywood Walk Of Fame, right next to [Snoop] Dogg. We gon’ pull up. We gon’ go big, come check us out! Dre is our Quincy Jones. He’s the chairman of the board. Dr. Dre is the root of the family tree. Dr. Dre makes stars for the universe and they stay there for a long time, they don’t burn out. You can see there’s a method to the madness. The people that he’s been involved with have longevity past and there is a reason for that, because he’s so dedicated to the craft and the music and he brings out best out of everyone that he works with. Dr. Dre is essential for West Coast hip-hop to be in existence. We made timeless materials. The things that are going to be here after we are gone. [The best lesson I learned from Dre is] ‘Your ego is not your amigo.’

Xzibit on recording process of “What’s The Difference” with Dr. Dre and Eminem
“Nah, he don’t let you hear it. You just do your part. And then you hear it when it comes out. I didn’t hear anything. All I heard was beat. That’s it. He don’t do that. He don’t wants us to point guns at each other. You do your part, everybody does their part and then if you get s–t on, you get sh–t on. [Laughs] That’s how it is. That’s why you got to come with your A game every time.

“What’s the Difference” is a song from Dr. Dre’s second studio album 2001 (1999), featuring Eminem and Xzibit, as well as additional vocals from Phish, and was produced by Dre and Mel-Man. The song contains a horn section in the instrumental, as well as a sample of “Parce Que Tu Crois” by Charles Aznavour. Lyrically, the rappers talk about the differences between themselves and other rappers. Dr. Dre reflects on three of his friends, Ice Cube, The D.O.C., and Eazy-E in his verse. Eminem’s verse sees him considering the hypothetical situation of killing his girlfriend Kim, rapping that he would put sunglasses on her corpse and drive around with her in the front seat. He also defends Dre’s legacy, threatening those who doubt him.

Royce 5’9″ urges Eminem again to another Bad Meets Evil project

Nasaan and Royce 5’9″ have recently sat down with Way Up With Angela Yee where they talked about Nasaan’s upcoming album Error 404 that’s releasing on April 25, 2024, featuring BabyTron, Royce 5’9″, Icewear Vezzo and more. They also talked sobriety, Cordae, Eminem, Paul Rosenberg, Obie Trice, Big Proof, their biggest mistakes and much more.

Nasaan & Royce 5’9″ on Cordae
Nasaan: I don’t even have a problem with the dude. I actually like him as a person. I picked on him a few years ago and then my fans just loved it. It’s like an inside joke. That’s messed up. That’s mean. I probably gonna stop. So, shout out to Cordae though. It’s rooted in competition. It’s not like a personal beef.
Royce 5’9″: I love Cordae. He is so emotionally intelligent. That’s why I didn’t think anything of it. And you know how the rappers are when they are young. I was the same way. I was doing more than ripping pictures.

Royce 5’9″ on DJ Premier and Eminem
Me and Preem working on, it’s a joint thing we do together called PRhyme, so we working on third installment right now. As far as me and Marshall, all he has to do is sent me a text message and I’m to the studio whenever he’s ready. We pretty much do that on his time. And he’s always on some type of time. He’s always on some sort of mission. I don’t know what he’s doing right now but I know he’s recording a lot of stuff.

Nasaan on Paul Rosenberg
When Paul discovered me I was somebody who was just really good at rapping. I didn’t have myself figured out. Now I understand more who I am, not only as an artist but as a person. There is more to steer and guide now. Paul is helping and plying a part and it’s easier for him to understand who he’s working with. He’s a big homie. He’s always in my corner.

Royce 5’9″ on Obie Trice 
I have not spoken to Obie Trice in a while. I bumped into him couple of times but it was an environment where we could really like kick it but I’ve heard some things. I’ve got that feeling [to reach out and talk] couple of times watching him. That’s a slipper uphill slope. I don’t wanna step on toes or say anything that’s gonna offend anybody. I know, how us as addicts, we get defensive when people come at us in any kind of way about our problems. If ever the opportunity for me to speak to him, if he ever feels the need to speak to somebody I’m certainly somebody he can definitely reach out to. I’m always available for that. That’s like a big thing to me too as well. Just not only being sober but taking the steps through my sobriety helping other people. It’s so tough to do because you don’t wanna seem like one of those people who got sober and now you coming from a place of judgement.

Danny Brown talks about Eminem vs Benzino & MGK on Drink Champs

In the latest episode of Drink Champs, Detroit’s own Danny Brown sits down with N.O.R.E. and DJ EFN to discuss his journey to sobriety, his love for Detroit style pizza, and his take on the Eminem vs. MGK and Eminem vs. Benzino beef. Brown also delves into his musical influences, including Nas, Ghostface Killah, and the UK grime scene. The Detroit rapper shares stories about losing his teeth, his experiences with Adderall, and his admiration for the Insane Clown Posse’s business model. Throughout the interview, Brown showcases his unique personality and his deep appreciation for hip hop culture.

At one point of the interview N.O.R.E. asked him whose side he’s on in Slim Shady and Benzino beef. Here is what Danny replied: “I mean, I’m obviously going to ride with my city. I’m an Eminem guy.” Later, the crew talked about Eminem vs Machine Gun Kelly and Em’s influence on the game.

DJ EFN: Eminem or MGK?
Danny Brown: C’mon man. Y’all tryna be funny now. I mean, of course it’s gonna be Em. We would not get MGK if it was not for Em. No white boys coming around, you know. We had 3rd Bass, [Beastie Boys, Vanilla Ice]. My favorite white rapper right now is El-P.

N.O.R.E.: I’m not gonna lie, we just had Benzino on Drink Champs. I did defend Eminem as much as I can but my favorite white rapper of all times is Eminem. I can’t deny that at all. Zino is my brother but the thing about it is, I don’t like Eminem because he’s white, I like Eminem because I like Eminem. That’s it. I know what he was trying to bait me into doing but no, it’s not I like him because he’s white, I like him because I like syllables, I like how he puts motherf–king words together. F–k that, I don’t care.
Danny Brown: I mean, that’s rappers’ rapper type s–t. You understand how difficult it is to do what he do when you do this s–t. So, motherf–kers always trying to talk s–t. Like ‘we don’t hear Eminem in the club.’ N-gga! You still go to the club?! You hear Eminem at f–king football games and stadiums and s–t like that. At the end of the day, no one can take what he’s done for white boy rappers. It wouldn’t be y’all n–gas now it’s so many f–king Eminem clones in this s–t.

N.O.R.E.: If you go to Spotify, Eminem is still No.1 f–king artist listened to. You know why I wanted to defend Eminem? It’s not only because of Benzino. It’s because I hate when people say ‘yeah, he’s nice for white for a white guy.’ He’s nice because he’s nice!
Danny Brown: No, he was better than n–gas when he first came out. That’s the way he got cracking.

Dr. Dre crowns Eminem as ‘Best MC Ever’

Eminem and Dr. Dre are among the most iconic collaborative duos to ever grace the world of hip-hop. Even two decades and half into their relationship, The West Coast legend still believes that the Detroit legend is the best to ever pick up a microphone. Dre stopped by SiriusXM’s The Life of Mine With James Corden show on Thursday (March 14, 2024), where he championed Slim Shady’s greatness.

Dre reflected on meeting Eminem for the first time at Jimmy Iovine’s office in the ’90s and how their first time in the studio produced The Slim Shady LP‘s “My Name Is.” “I met Eminem at Jimmy Iovine’s office. We slapped hands, went to the studio and started recording and I’m not sure if anybody knows this, but I think the first four albums was just me and him and his writing and his delivery and his imagination is off the charts and I don’t think anyone would disagree with that.” said Dr. Dre.

Then he continued: “Hi, my name is, is the first thing that happened. I put the beat on and he just did that right away. We are in the studio. I hit play on it, and he just went ‘Hi, my name is!’ It happened that fast. No bullsh–t. And then we went from there and that was the beginning of this relationship. And I think he is the best emcee ever. Point blank, period. Of course there gonna be arguments about that because he’s white guy, you know. I don’t think anyone that is rapping can touch Eminem on microphone.”

Dre is also reuniting with an old friend for a new project, as Dre’s teasing an album on the way with Snoop Dogg: “I know as odd as it sounds, I’ve only produced one album on Snoop, which was in 1993, Doggystyle. I mean, we’ve done some songs and we’ve played around in between, of course, but that is the one and only album I’ve produced on Snoop, Doggystyle, so we decided to call this one Missionary. Snoop is really sounding fantastic and people are gonna be really shocked and amazed at how we’ve been able to come back together after all these years and do something. It’s really interesting.”

The Game picks winner in Machine Gun Kelly & Eminem beef

The Game has recently sat down with on VLAD TV where Vlad gone through major rap beefs from this year to all the way back to 1987 and asked Game to rate each one and name the winner. They started with Nicki Minaj and Megan Thee Stallion feud, in which, in Game’s opinion, Nicki came out victorious. Then Vlad asked about Eminem and MGK beef.

“You know what? People get mad when you say s–t about Eminem or you talk about Eminem but I gotta give that to Machine Gun Kelly. You know what’s crazy, I feel like old Eminem was just deadly and I feel like this Eminem is just a legendary guy. He’s one of the best rappers in the world, ever. But skill-wise now, the ability to compete right now and compete back then when he had the beef with Machine Gun Kelly I just don’t feel like…You know what I’m saying? He filled the glass.” said The Game.

Then he continued: “I feel like Machine Gun Kelly came out of nowhere with a dope a-s [diss]. With the Killshot s–t and was actually lyrically crazy on that motherf–ker.  And Machine Gun Kelly can actually really f–king rap. Aside from what he’s doing outside of rap music and punk rock and doing what he doing that’s his business but as far as like rap, I mean, you got a white kid from Cleveland, the hood, he go for what he go for. Eminem same way from Detroit. Seems like all his hommies are blacks, so we get it. But yeah, on that particular beef, I gotta get out with Machine Gun Kelly.”

“[Eminem was on my first album. I went to Detroit to record it.] I have not seen Eminem since then. Since 2004. Like, twenty years. Dre is from California, he lives down the street but Eminem still lives in Detroit. I don’t know if he has house here. If he goes somewhere, it’s like Super Bowl type s–t. People may not agree what I’m saying about beefs but I’m really a rap veteran and as far as beef I might be at the top of the top. So, when I judge something and say something, it’s not like ‘I don’t know what the f–k I’m talking about.'” The Game added.

Royce 5’9″ talks about NF, Yelawolf, Eminem’s “Doomsday Pt. 2”, J. Cole, Bad Meets Evil & more

Royce 5’9″ has recently done a question and answer session for his fans with his wife on Instagram where he addressed his past beef with Yelawolf, shared his opinion on Eminem’s “Doomsday Pt. 2” song, commented about NF, gave high praise to J. Cole and teases another Bad Meets Evil project.

What do you think about NF?
Is that a guy from, is he like a Christian rapper? Rap real good, Christian rap? If so, yeah, I like him. He cool.

Who is the best rapper right now?
Hm, this is a good question. I don’t know. Probably Nasaan. I’m always afraid to give my opinion because…Yo, man, I was on Joe Budden Podcast and he asked me how I felt about the state of things. He asked me about my opinion how I felt about it and a friend of mine, another rapper who you all know but I’m not gonna say his name, texted me like two paragraphs message. How did you receive this? He was challenging me or something? Why do everybody think that I’m like when I break something down, the lyrics are the only thing that matter to me. Cause he was explaining to me the importance of melody and how melody is key and it ain’t all about the lyrics. I was thinking to myself, ‘yo, what the f–k do that gotta do what I said?’ I said that J. Cole seemed like the only guy I heard in a minute that’s like being real competitive and trying to be the best. I was not just talking about his lyrics. My criteria is how many boxes he checks. I don’t like when artist feel like they have to choose one or another. Biggie could do everything, tell stories, he made complete bodies of work, super lyrical, checked all the boxes, that’s my criteria.

How was “Doomsday Pt. 2”? 
Yo, I wish I could f–king…I wish I had a device that I can put on people’s heads and make them forget about that whole f–king scenario. I’m really ready for that to go away. Benzino basically went on the entire press run, putting out records and guess whose name got worked up in the mix out of nowhere? Me!

Are you and Yelawolf okay?
Yeah, we are. One thing about me is I’m not about to just sit around and just be mad at people. It’s going to get addressed and we gonna come to some sort of a solution or we gonna move on. I’m not gonna sit around and just harbor feelings about people. He didn’t do anything that was surprising to me. So it’s just another thing. But I’m not tripping about him or anybody else.

What are your thoughts on Em’s verse on Doomsday? 
Why? Why do you wanna know what I think? Because all I’mma do is say my opinion and the next thing you do you all like ‘oh, he like everything he do, that’s his boss. He got to get on here and defend him all the time. Why you talking for him?!’ but you can’t name one time I talk for him. Jesus Christ! They just stick me with all of that f–king worst titles. ‘Let that white boy talk for himself, man! What you talking for?!’ Like, bro, really?

Why have not you been on BMF? 
That’s a good question. You should ask 50 Cent that. Next time you see 50, matter of fact, spam him and be like ‘yo man, why you ain’t got Nickel on BMF? He sold more dope than all of them n-ggas.’

Is there another collab with Em happening?
“Man, we gon’ do whole Benzino diss EP and square this away once for all. The winner gets crowned with Global Lyrical Supremacy Forever. Whoever makes the best diss records.

Wack 100 tells ICP they were scared of Eminem & gives them M&M’s during live interview

Violent J and Shaggy 2 Dope of Insane Clown Posse have recently sat down with Adam22 on No Jumper Podcast alongside with The Game’s manager Wack 100 where the crew discussed ICP’s past beef with Eminem.

“I did some research on you [ICP] before I came here. I’m reading the s–t about you and I’m like ‘oh, I’m f–king with these dudes.’ Until I see this motherf–kers are beefing with my favorite rapper [Eminem]. I didn’t wanna show up today because I feel like, when you beef with my favorite rappers, I feel like a sellout. So, I felt like the only reason I was going to show up today is to contact Eminem in some way. Here we go bro [hands out M&Ms chocolates]… Now, I’m reading and I’m like ‘how did these dudes start beefing?!'”

Later in the interview, Adam told Wack to stop acting like it’s a current beef, on which Wack replied: “I don’t see it current. Hey listen man, I talk to Eminem! He’s still tripping about them. Who the f–k do you think got Mike Tyson to be in that video?” On that, Adam replied to stop living in fantasy and told him to get Eminem on the phone to prove it. Wack continued: “I’m the one who got Mike Tyson to be in that video bro!”

From there, Wack addressed ICO: “Which one of you were scared to fight? Em called out of you out.” On that Violent J replied that he never even heard that rumor before that Eminem wanted to fight one of them. You can watch the whole thing in the videos below:
