Jay-Z talked about Eminem’s fame, Kanye West, Obama, and Clinton in a recent interview with Interview Magazine. Here is what he said about our man Eminem…
“I never even told him this, but I remember that Eminem came into the studio when we made ‘Moment of Clarity,’ which he produced, on The Black Album. So here’s Eminem. It’s 2003, I think The Eminem Show had come out, and he was like the biggest rapper in the world—he sold like 20 million records worldwide or some ridiculous number. But when he came to the studio, I remember I hugged him, and I could feel that he had on a bulletproof vest. I couldn’t imagine being that successful. I mean, he’s a guy who loves rap and wanted to be successful his whole career. Then he finally gets it, and there’s this dark cloud over him.”
Just for kicks I thought I would include one of my all time favorite songs, “Renagade” by Jay-Z featuring Eminem live. Listen to when Eminem surprises the audience, they go nuts!
