The Alchemist confirms one of the "Relapse 2" tracks
Eminem’s official live DJ, Alchemist, recently confirmed a track off of Relapse 2 in an interview with Allhiphop.com. The song is called “Insult to Injury” and it’s a continuation to the final track off of Relapse, “Underground.”

Read this part of the interview with The Alchemist:

AllHipHop.com: Going back to Eminem, you just confirmed that he laced a full track with you. Can fans expect an Alchemist-produced track on the next Eminem album?

Alchemist: Anything can happen, man. The relationship is getting much better.

AllHipHop.com: A lot better than that time when the car accident occurred few years ago?

Alchemist: I mean at the time, I was just his DJ and he was under the influence of so many drugs, man. He doesn’t even remember that I was out there with him. When the fans heard I was linking up with Em they’re thinking, “They’ll be making music together.” Not Alchemist going out there doing funky scratches. At the time, there was too much s*** going on for him that he didn’t realize, “Yo, I got Alchemist on my team. That’s a fully loaded gun on my belt alongside other heaters.”

AllHipHop.com: Did you think that you were going to make music?

Alchemist: Part of the reason I got in the camp was because I knew the protocols. I knew Em before he blew up because of Paul [Eminem’s manager]. I’ve seen the whole **** even without being in the whole circle. I think that was also one of the reasons like, “Oh, Al’s not going to be hawking Em with beats.” The whole year I was on tour with him, I never did that once because I knew how to play my cards. Now that Em’s sober, he’s asking me more now.

AllHipHop.com: Right, but I also heard that Em only likes to rap over either his own beats or Dre’s beats.

Alchemist: Yea, because he doesn’t need more usually. You have unlimited Dre beats, and your own beats. What more beats do you need? Their relationship is ill because it seems like it’s gotten better.

AllHipHop.com: Really?

Alchemist: Yea. It seems like once Em sobered up and Dre realized it he was like, “You want to go? Let’s go!” For six months Dre was out there. It was like six dudes—Mark Batson, Dawaun Parker—his whole clique of guys. And I wasn’t out there, but from the stories Em told me it sounded great. Now that his head is straight his rhymes aren’t straight. He is making the most psychotic s***s I’ve ever heard. He has a song on Relapse 2 that’s so crazy. You know “Underground?”

AllHipHop.com: Yea.

Alchemist: It takes off where that stops and obliterates that. He rhymes in his regular voice…I’m afraid because the rhymes might slip out of my mouth. [Laughs.] Put it this way, there’s a song called “Insult to Injury.”
