Em had a melody, he went to the Bass Brothers and melodized the fucking melody, and they entered the melody in the piano.
The Bass Brothers NEVER went up to Eminem and suggested the melody for the song, they didn't suggest a single fucking thing. It was Eminem's creativity that led to the beat even being made possible. It doesn't even matter that the Bass Brothers helped him with the beat. He could have easily went up to any well known producer and paid them some money to get the melody on the beat.
But I never said they had that effect

I simply said that I believed their part in making the melody tangible deserved credit. I still believe that. The same way an artist credit's the media he uses to create his final piece

@Embase.
For the last time. Eminem NEVER said the Way I Am was made without the Bass Brother's. That is your interpretation. Those words have never been noted as leaving his lips.
How one interprets their part in the track is another matter entirely. When Em wrote that he had Jeff play out the loop/tune he had, I stand by that being evidence that they helped make it.
I am an artist (not musically) and that's just my opinion.
@Insane. I felt like snapping. No hard feelings.
