After hearing Eminem‘s verse on Drake‘s 2009 Boi-1da produced hit “Forever” Kanye West went back and took two days to rewrite his.
“When I heard Eminem‘s verse on the Drake shit, I went back and rewrote my shit for two days, I cancelled appointments to rewrite! I f**kin’ care.” – Kanye West
Lil Wayne also rewrote his verse on “Forever” after hearing Eminem’s verse.
Eminem told Complex: “Everybody approached the beat different. Kanye was crazy, too, and Wayne. I just saw the beat differently than anybody else did; for some reason, I felt like the beat was a double-time beat, so I rapped faster.”
The song was released as a single from LeBron James‘ documentary ‘More Than A Game’.
