Eminem takes his time to make quality music
D12 rapper Bizzare recently sat for a conversation with Bootleg Kev where he detailed Eminem’s commitment to the recording process. He revealed that Em spends hours just to polish a verse.
“It was a lot of work, man,” the Detroit rapper said. “I think we had fun after the studio,” he stated. “Being in the studio with Em, man, sometimes you might be in the booth for five, six hours doing one verse over. He was on yo ass.”
He continued, “I remember one time he got so sick with it, man, I went home and he wanted me to do some ad-libs over. I guess he couldn’t wait ’til I came back; the next day, he had did them for me. He sounded just like me, my voice. I was like, ‘Bro, you are sick.’”
Bizzare went on to recall Slim Shady lending him advice on taking his time in making music, although he never listened. “He said, ‘Sometimes just go over the verses over and over again when you take it home, and ask yourself: Did I say the dopest line right here? Could I have said something better right here? And if you think you coulda, change it.'”
He added, “But I never listened to him [laughs]. I was like, ‘Fuck that, I’m going back to the hotel.’”
