Excerpt from Rolling Stone Interview

[EminemBase]

Thanks just starting to read and first thing i noticed"After half an hour,Eminem emerges from the vocal booth,where he's working on tracks with Dr.Dre for Dre's long-awaited Detox" .Does this magazine make assumtions out of the blue?or...

Em said himself he's working on it. So it's not an assumption

haha yes i just got to that part .So the rumours that are out lately about Dre might be actually real this time,he might actually get Detox on the light.If i was him i would rename it tho lol

He said there though that they're 'half-way done'. And he said "I wanna say" implying they're maybe not even half-way done lmao.

Amount of times I've heard them say "nearly done", "just putting final touches on" etc. then it goes back to "just getting started", "half-way done" like with the D12 album.

Which makes it even more likely this 'new Em' track is solo material now...

Thanks for the scans, slicknickshady. Better interview than I expected. He talked a lot about the drugs, but it was surprisingly more interesting this time.

And of course, you can't have an Eminem interview these days without the acting question.

[Cam_24]

some one should nararote this interview and upload it to youtube
im to lazy to read it all

If you're too lazy to read it that's your own problem.

Yeah don't they get tired of that acting q?lol.I wish they would have asked him about producing beats and someone tell him he is doing a good job at that too (in case he didnt knew lol).He didn't give any hint about a new album tho.

thanks for the pdf

The page 12 says you can hear audio clips of the interview and see the handwritten lyrics he did for the interview on their website but I don't know where they are. It's called Eminem Behind The Scenes but the search didn't find it. Do you know where the site usually has these things?

its coming soon .... it say on the site.

At least the acting question made a little sense in the context of the article. Em was the one who brought up not knowing exactly what he would do after he is finished rapping. The interview then just went off that and asked the acting question.

Again, thats what i thinks going to be the case, he won't do another film till he is done rapping. Because he again mentioned his drug problem got really bad when he was doing 8 mile. So my guess is he is going to have to confront some demons when he signs up for another film. It will be easier to do that when he is done rapping. I believe 47 is the magic number when he will be done Rapping. He's 38 now. At 47 that will still be pretty young for an actor.

I doubt he'll continue to 47.

I definitely think a full transition into acting is a great idea though. He's already got a very credible film as his debut, and he's integral - He keeps his integrity even with the acting.

So, it would be very interesting to see him put the same focus and time into that, and imagine he then became one of the best actors too. Over a period of years. Would be odd to see. But he'd have a whole other passion / full-life's work to focus on...

After being fully cemented as certainly one of, and to many - THEE greatest MC / Artist in hip-hop history. What a lucky fucker. Not lucky in the sense it happened by luck, but luck that he's in such a comfortable position now to just... Breathe passion. Cunt

love The First 48.. that show is incredible

lol @ the guy writin Em's looks were feminine

[slicknickshady]

47 is just a guess on my part. If he decides to put out a new album every year then i can see him going till only 42. That would be 4 more studio albums. But i don't know if Em is going to put in that much work is a quick pace.

I mean what Jay Z is 40 and he's still going. But yeah, Em could decide tomorrow he's done. But imo Em say's he has a lot of gas in the tank. So we will see.

Really nice read, thanks for the PDF!


His sober date is 4/20, hahaha... (unless he's joking)

Lmao at the being gay line

True but with Em it's very different.

Like... Jay, yeah he's still 'around' but he doesn't IMO do what Kanye / Em do which is... Pull everything inside them out and try spill it through music every time.

So it's easier for him to just 'put stuff out'.

Em and Kanye try to make a unique impression each time, with a new style and image, and they dig right down to try and produce something from within them. Good or bad, it's obsessive and committed (as much as it can be given their state / situation of course)...

So tbh, given that Em has done all of his life (past and present) up until this point and seems to be pretty calm and drama-less now, I can't see us getting any more than another... 3 max. But realistically I think 2, and then 2 more D12 albums. As he's going to have to create from total originality again now.

the way eminem wrote those bars in the interview


plz i hope he starts rapping like that again

[buffalo bill]

[shadegirl]

This dude doing this interview wants me to spin a few,
Lyrics while I tie my tennis shoes in the nude,
A romantic interlude in a livin' room,
In an inner tube with a dude with a bit of lube,
Fuck that i'm sniffin' glue sipping gin and juice,
And a little bit of paint thinner with my dinner too,
You better pay me for my bars like your rent is due,
Now hurry up and finish dude before i finish you


He wrote it in two minutes.
