Detroit rap legend Eminem recently issued praise to fellow rhymer Royce Da 5’9 in the most Eminem way possible, with both admiration and grim sarcasm.
After the Slaughterhouse rapper let loose two flame-emoji-worthy freestyles, he received praise from Em via text.
A screen capture of the text from his “Big Bro,” which Royce shared on Instagram on Monday (January 16), stated the following:
“Really? Ur an asshole. Those fuckin freestyles u put out r devastating. Incredible. I hate u. Die.”
The freestyles Eminem was gushing about featured Royce rapping over the instrumentals to Phresher’s “Wait A Minute,” as well as DJ Khaled and Jay Z’s “I Got The Keys.”
We had high praise for Royce last year too, putting his Tabernacle: Trust The Shooter project in the top spot of our Best Mixtapes Of 2016.

Eminem Once Tested Kendrick Lamar To Make Sure He Didn't Use Ghostwriters

Eminem Once Tested Kendrick Lamar To Make Sure He Didn't Use Ghostwriters



It’s no secret that Eminem is a fan of Kendrick Lamar. He went so far as to call the younger rapper’s major label debut a “masterpiece,” but a new story has surfaced of the Rap God testing Compton’s good kid before giving him a badge of honor.
In talking with the Zach Sang Show, Ed Sheeran of all people has the scoop on what went down when K.Dot met Slim Shady before Em said Lamar “raps to be the best rapper in the world.”

“I heard a very cool story about Eminem and Kendrick Lamar,” he says. “Eminem wanted, he heard that Kendrick Lamar was the best rapper and he invited him to the studio to get him on a song. He arrived and Kendrick came with all his mates and Eminem said,
‘I just want you in the studio, just you on your own. And then my engineer is gonna come in and then record you doing it. But your mates aren’t allowed in.'”

Kendrick complied, “wrote a sick verse” and everyone gathered around to see what the TDE rapper was truly capable of. And Cornrow Kenny nabbed an appearance on “Love Game” off The Marshall Mathers LP 2.

“Eminem said that he did it to test Kendrick because he thought he had a ghostwriter,” Sheeran continues. “He then realized that he didn’t, and then claimed he was the best, which is kinda cool I think.”

How did popstar Ed Sheeran get this gem for the Hip Hop history books?
Rick Rubin, of course. The music mogul handled production for the singer’s album. After working with Eminem on The Marshall Mathers LP 2, Rubin called the Detroit legend “maybe the best rapper of any MC.” Kendrick and Rubin just recently met for the first time and had a very insightful conversation that included the TDE rapper crediting Eminem for his lyricism, before they hit the studio.

Rapper's fans will be delighted to know that Eminem's upcoming album will have 21 tracks and will be called "Success." According to the leaked release date information, the album is all set to hit the music stores on Jan. 25.
According to rumors, the album will see some famous collaborations from the music industry, such as Adele, who is reportedly going to feature in the album's cover song. Speculations about Snoop Dogg's possible alliance with Eminem sparked when the rapper revealed in his interview with Rolling Stones magazine that his dream team includes Kendrick Lamar, Dr. Dre, himself and "Not Afraid" singer.
Ever since Eminem announced on his Facebook page about the upcoming album, reports claim that the "Rap God" rapper has been working on an album since October. Soon after the rapper's announcement, a post on Reddit revealed a document with the list of 21 tracks as the compilation of Eminem's latest album. The user, however, noted that the document does not have a credible source, but it was still worth sharing.

Meanwhile, apart from speculations, the rapper also teased his new song recently on a radio show called Hannukah Radio. Even though the rapper jokingly dedicated the song to his manager Paul Rosenberg as he shared a few lines, many fans believe that this is indeed an actual song that will feature in the new album.
It has been a long time since the fans have been waiting for their favorite rapper's next album. The previous album, "The Marshall Mathers LP 2" was released in 2013 and not much has been revealed about the album. Even though the rapper keeps dropping hints, he has not revealed any conclusive details or made an official announcement.
