When Eminem produces...

[Chilli]

I've been curious and unsure about this for a long time and was hoping someone could enlighten me.

When Eminem produces, does he write all the melodies, basslines, drum beats, guitar parts, etc. himself or does he get help with that? Do you know if he can he play any musical instruments?

I don't think/see he plays any

[Hiphopdane]

I'm pretty sure he does the drums himself but other instruments are done by professional musicians.

Do you know if he writes the parts those musicians play or do they write it?

I'm aware it may vary song to song, but just as a general thing.

yes, he sed that he thinks of em in his head, then hums it out to them, and shit like that hope that answered your question..

[SajN]

He said in his book that he hums the melodies and then the others note it down. And he can play piano by himself.
I don't rememver exactly what he said, but I can check the book and come back later here.

he makes the beat. the beat.

[RealSickLindley]

He evidently didn't get help on the average beats he did for Obie, Lloyd Banks and Tony Yayo.

[M-Pyre]

yes and no

it varies

I've gotta read that book already. It's nowhere to be found in bookstores or libraries where I live

It'd be cool to get a video of him making a beat from start to finish, just to see how he works... same with Dre for that matter. Siiiiigh, a man can dream....

But thanks for that, guys

[Mikey1990]

luis resto does the keyboard
