This year, Eminem proved he could take over the game again if he felt like it. All of a sudden, all of the jokes about his former drug addiction are gone. Not too many people ever denied his skill as a rapper, but he has never been on this level of demand, even when he was selling nine million albums.
For years, DJ Premier saved his beats for only a select number of artists. Jay-Z has famously been among the few on that list and Kanye West was soon added to the list. But, as time has moved on, DJ Premier has expanded his reach. He now deals with more rappers of this generation.
With the changes in times, he is more public than he has ever been before. Recently, DJ Premier reached out to Eminem because he wants to do a beat for him. He promises this beat will become the best song Eminem has done in his entire career. With Slim Shady planning to release a new album next year, having a DJ Premier beat would be perfect.
