Alchemist shows love to Eminem

For Episode 02 of ‘Conversations’, Cardo Got Wings sat down with iconic producers The Alchemist. Coinciding with the release of Lucid Monday Magazine’s Issue 07, this episode dives into their creative processes, perspectives on the evolving music industry, and a look into the minds behind some of the most influential music today.

At one point during the conversation, the two briefly talked about Eminem.

Alchemist: I was lucky to tour with Eminem all the time and deejaying for him in so many countries. We be chilling man. He’s the coolest dude ever man.
Cardo: He’s the funniest motherf–ker I know. That’s who I would like to work with man, it’s Em. He’s a legend in my hood.
Alchemist: Man, if you think we are working hard, I never seen anybody work like this.
Cardo: Does he have a flip phone for real?
Alchemist: Yes…He’s on a different level of stratosphere. In the minute I think I’m working hard, If I go out there and see him, I’m like ‘alright, I gotta do better. I got to work harder.
Cardo: Does he still make beats?
Alchemist: Everything. He’s an Enigma. He’s Eminem.
Cardo: Once I heard him doing Renegade on Blueprint, I was like ‘Em is really nasty.’
Alchemist: Unbelievable. And he’s on it everyday. Touring with him I got to have a lot off days in other countries so I just hit record stores and come home.

Alchemist has recently denied putting production credits on Eminem’s new single “Houdini,” from his upcoming 12th solo studio album, The Death Of Slim Shady (Coup De Grace). For some reason, fans believed he’s was the man behind the keyboards but the track was produced by Eminem himself.

Eminem officially starts new album rollout!

Eminem has just sent the fans into madness as the Detroit legend shares pictures of himself in the studio with Dr. Dre, Royce 5’9″, The Alchemist, Denaun Porter and his recent Shady Records signee, Ez Mil. It is highly possible that all these artists that appear in the picture are featured on the new album or Eminem just invited them for a listening session.

One thing that we know for sure,  Dr. Dre will be on the 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.” said Dr. Dre during his visit on Jimmy Kimmel Live.

In the caption of the new post, Eminem wrote: “Nuthin 2 see here… plenty to hear!!!” Busta Rhymes, Bizarre of D12, Boldy James, Fredwreck, Nasaan, King Iso, Adam22, Helluva, DJ Pooh, R-Mean,  have all reacted in the comments. Royce 5’9″ also posted the picture with the caption: “3-21-24 At @drdre ‘s House …” On which DJ Premier commented: “On my Born Day. That’s a good day!” Busta Rhymes also commented King Crown emojis. Nasaan, Dem Jointz, Page Kennedy, Smoothvega, have also commented. Ez Mil also re-shared the post with the caption “‘La lang.”

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 Eminem’s latest post below:

Conway drops his Shady Records debut single “Piano Love,” prod by Alchemist

Conway The Machine drops “Piano Love,” lead single from his much anticipated Shady Records debut album, titled “God Don’t Make Mistakes,” which is supposed to be released in February, 2022.

The song is produced by his already many times collaborator, Alchemist. For the legendary producer, this marks the first ever single for Shady Records.

“With ‘Piano Love’ I am giving my fans what they love me for, grimy raps on an insane beat from The Alchemist. Something magical that sets the tone for the rest of God Don’t Make Mistakes album. If you have been a Conway fan from day one, you are going to absolutely love the first single.” said the Griselda rapper.

Some of the quotable lyrics from the song includes: “Hood ni**gas still eat the ramen noodles / That load cost an extra five if I got it to you / We the mob, you violate that, I gotta shoot you / Send some rocket through you, hollow tips poppin’ to you / Griselda keep winnin’, you don’t know how to stop it, do you?”

Conway The Machine hints a song with Eminem & The Alchemist

One of the hottest rappers in the game right now, Griselda’s finest Conway The Machine, has recently hinted on the upcoming collaboration with Eminem and one of the finest producers in the game, The Alchemist.

Conway and Alchemist have an impressive experience in working together. Their list of collaborations include tracks like: “224 May Block,” “Overdose,” “No Woman No Kids,” “Dough & Damani,” “Eastside,” featuring Westside Gunn, “Babies & Fools” by Freddie Gibbs and Westside Gunn’s “Kool G,” featuring Benny The Butcher. The two also teamed up for 7-track EP, called “LULU.”

As far as Eminem, he can not brag about The Alchemist collaborations. Even though they have been in the same team for almost two decades, the two teamed up for “Chemical Warfare,” Tony Touch’s “Get Back” with D12 and most recently “Stepdad” from Music To Be Murdered By Album.

Conway and Eminem have also previously collaborated on the songs “BANG” and “Machine Gun Black.”

In near future, Conway has his debut album God Don’t Make Mistakes coming under Shady Records so the collaboration from these three might be a dream come true for many fans all around the world. You can check out the Buffalo rapper hinting on something below:

Eminem talks Royce and Alchemist Grammy nominations

In a recent interview on Shade 45, Eminem talked about Royce Da 5’9″ and The Alchemist’s Grammy nominations. You can check it out below.

Gray Rizzy: I just want to know how you gonna deal with this man, because you have two brothers, Royce Da 5’9″ and The Alchemist nominated for the Grammys. This is like two of your brothers going in the championship. I’m not gonna ask you who you rooting for cause I know you want both of them win but what’s the first thing you gonna say to the winner?

Eminem: GIMMIE. Give me your Grammy!

Gray Rizzy: [Laughs]

Eminem: Nah. I don’t know man. I’m happy they are both nominated. It’s great for me to sit back and be able to watch it. Cause both of these guys are so f**king talented. I’ve been saying that, I wished they’d get more shine. And I think that’s right direction as far as Grammys. At least they are trying to get it right. I’m happy for both of them. And regardless of either one of them if they win, they are still Grammy nominated.
