Em has features upon features on his own albums. He elevates people all the time...Royce explained it well

[@bdr113080]

Yeah and besides that, the minute he got put on look how many African-Americans he put on, Royce, Proof, Bizzare, Swifty,Mr. Porter, Kuniva, 50 Cent, Tony Yayo , Loyd Banks, Young Buck, Obie Trice,Ca$his….. that and he has been donating since he started making money to charities that are African-American charities. Some are for their in his city of Detroit and others help black women go to college, this is all stuff he was doing way before anyone had a problem with him. This is stuff he was doing right after the Slim Shady LP. I am so tired I got up and coming artist in one city getting mad at legends from their city for not putting them on especially if said legend has already put on like a dozen other people. At some point it’s not his job to make sure everybody gets a deal. Dr. Dre gets the same kind of hate from so many rappers in Southern California because they think it’s his job to make them a celebrity. Eminem didn’t wake up one day and decided he wanted to be a rapper and someone gave him Dr. Dre’s phone number. He has been working at being a rapper for almost a decade at that point. Eminem didn’t get signed when he was 19 or 20 he was signed when he was 26 years old.

Piece of advise: You REACH for the top, the top NEVER reaches for the bottom. Just like you push the button to get on the elevator, the elevator NEVER pushes the button for you. You want to be "known"? Find the "top dogs" in your industry and seek their attention and assistance. DO NOT "wait for them to see you". They are in a completely different mind-set of how to keep moving UPWARD. They already reached and surpassed the "milestone" you haven't even THOUGHT of yet. When you are driving a sled through the wilderness, the driver isn't looking at the pack of dogs pulling the sled inch by inch. The driver is looking at the horizon keeping an eye out for shortcuts, paths already laid out by others, and possible signs left by explorers who already mapped out the landscape. In other words. YOU want to be thought of as the best? Then work with the best so that you GET recognized as being the best one out there.

Great take Stevie.💪🏽 Then if you aren’t a lyrical rapper most likely Eminem won’t collaborate or sign you to his label because that’s the era he came from. So in this new era when most rappers aren’t lyrical anymore because majority of the youth don’t care about doubles/triples set bars or storytelling/flow switches anymore. They only care about if the beats are 🔥 and it has a catchy hook that the artist repeats like 4/5 times in the song with only 1 maybe 2 verses with the MV having thicc women throwing that ass back in that 1:30/2:00 music video. 😂

lots of people think just because you from somewhere, ie; Detroit, that you gonna be great truth is Eminem had to get known all by himself and the reason why he got so big is because he was actually good and you can see the absolute dedication he put into his music to the point where he reaches perfection in production just because Em does that doesnt mean you young blood from Detroit will be just as good or popular this is the lesson to learn here and many fail to learn it, thats where the hostility comes from more often than not so you are correct: they think they are good but they arent, thats why Eminem doesnt remotely care about them because he knows them and he knows that they are leagues below with high opinions of themselves and not improving i have enough of my two hands to name you the newschool rappers that i fuck with and enough of one hand to name you the ones i actually care and enjoy to listen to

[@chadd3299]

This is what it is: All the cats on Big Sean’s cypher are new school. The people he named in the top 5 are from the era Eminem came up. There was a beef between the Street Lordz Chedda Boys and Eastside Chedda Boys. SL had Blade Icewood, Juan, etc and Eastside had Malik, Wipeout, etc. Wipeout got killed and they killed Blade in retaliation. Big Herk was part of Rock Bottom…his own crew and is a Westside guy. Then Stretch Money came along for the Eastside and Malik left the CB moniker and just went by Chedda Boy Malik and released the street anthem “We Do it Big.” K-Deezy came along for the Westside and came out with his Stuck in My Ways Album with the banger In My Hood. They reconciled their differences mostly and a few other acts came out of it but it is all predicated on street rap with grimey beats. That generation bred Icewear Vezzo and Doughboy Cashout. Which led eventually to Sada Baby, 42 Dugg and Tee Grizzley. I think the best representation of Detroit rap overall is the K-Deezy stuck in my ways album (it’s on Spotify). But some of the Dj Young Mase mixtapes are amazing. If you want to experience the Detroit sound he’s talking about: Big Herk: on the block, trap going ham, do what you do Stretch Money: lil sum sum, hit the block, takes money to make money Malik: we do it big, bottle poppin, throw the money: Blade Icewood: ride on em, game on lock, and the entire blood sweat and tears album Eastside Chedda boys: I’m a Chedda boy baby, oh boy The reason he says “oh they’re good lyricists but we don’t rock with them” is because despite the fact we have Eminem, Royce, Elzhi, black milk, Obie trice, Big Sean, and J Dilla to name a few, the hood feels like the commercialization of their music doesn’t encapsulate their style or sound or what they want to get across and that the “real” Detroit style won’t be able to sell on their mainstream…so they’ve sacrificed their roots for riches and notoriety. I don’t believe that to be the case but that is their rationale.

i guess em said everything bout t. grizzley on the last two bars of "you gon learn" 🤣

[@CrazeeAdam]

Everything on thre SSLP to an extent is true. He was saying it in an exaggerated way. But as you brought up. Brain Damage, is literally the story of him getting beaten within the inch of his life by a bully and no one giving a fuck really.

7:00 NWA did a couple songs in r&b, Tupac did one themed to country, Run DMC did a couple to metal, Easy E did one in punk, BiggiE did 3 to pop, Bone Thugz N Harmony did a album in group R n B, Cypress Hill did blues! Snoop/Dre/Tupac in colabs with others did BOTH group R n B and techno inspired, Wu Tang Clan did just about all and even did some to weapon sounds and song names to 3 act story structure, and the heroes journey accross 3 albums! o-0 And Em was like, how do I add to the collection, and did 1 to classical, and in another Rapped to sheet music in all it's category within! o-0 People claimed you CAN'T do either with classical and Eminem went 'Hold my 40, time to rewrite what CAN and CAN'T be. And this is all AFTER the same doubters claimed a rapper can't act. and out comes Tupac, DMX, Ice Cube, Ice-T, Method Man! Going- Hold our shots/mix drinks for a grip, and get nominated in ALL acting categories for TV n movies together over 25 years and counting!

[@Pheonyxfree]

Waiting in Joyner and Durk Joint💯🔥

[@arlandblack1139]

Hang on, did I hear that right? Is anybody actually complaining about Em raising the bar for lyrical rappers? I don't get it.

[@alannadebidayal2788]

Early gang🙌

[@jrwepp7211]

Em "I can't believe I let Royce talk me into this shit" Also Em: incinerates everybody.

[@TananJess]

Respect 💯 that because they're worried more for the concern of what's best for hip-hop, not what's putting more money in his pocket, I get people gotta eat but be smart when that meals coming from.

[@MMAGamblingTips]

Detroit rapper: “The hood doesn’t f*ck with no Eminem“ Also Detroit rapper: “Em doesn’t feature is Detroit rappers. He wouldn’t sign me to Shady Records.“ Damned if you do, damned if you don’t.

[@ikenga02]

Blade Icewood, Rock Bottom, Chedda Boyz, and Street Lord, Icewear Vezzo, T-Grizzly, 42 Dugg, etc.. is the "Detroit" sound.

[@alexanderwesterlund5323]

Royce single handedly in a gracious and elegant yet assertive manor addressed inquiries shrouded in hate and misunderstanding and schooled cats in perspective and respect among other things. Royce is an intellect and shinning example of a black leader. Dude should be out here lecturing at universities like my main man GZA. Peace to the god Royce 5'9. Shout out to Em.

[@winninglifeyo]

That’s y fans of lyricism bump Em multiple times bc every time can be a new experience. Like first time few times I heard square dance I just didn’t feel it. Then one day riding w my boy it just clicked & it’s now in my top 20 if not too 10 em tracks

[@ninjajunior4422]

I will never get enough of watching Royce son them youngsters 🤣🤣

[@bingsbangs1786]

well said.
