Eminem talks about Ty Dolla Sign collaboration.
On New Year’s eve, Eminem made an appearance on Shade 45 radio where he discussed his “MTBMB” Side B songs with Gray Rizzy. At around the 6:30 mark, the host asks him about the features of the project, especially the Ty Dolla Sign one. “We got a lot of new talents that are on this right here on “MTBMB” Side B. One of those people is Ty Dolla Sign, I think a lot of fans are excited to see you two come together, but my question is how did you two collab, what made you want to work with him,” asks Gray.
“Music To Be Murdered By – Side B” is the follow-up to the Detroit rap god’s January album, which topped the Billboard 200 chart. The deluxe edition, which was released at 12 a.m., is a massive undertaking with 36 tracks and approximately 2 hours of running time. Marshall Mathers invites Dr. Dre, Ty Dolla $ign, Skylar Grey, DJ Premier, and others to appear as guests on his album. When it comes to the song “Favorite B**ch,” which features Ty Dolla $ign, Eminem explained that while he is a great fan of Ty Dolla $ign, his song with Kanye West inspired him to perform a song with him.
“Well, I’ve been a fan of Ty Dolla Sign for a while now,” says Eminem. “He pops up on my youtube feed a lot, cause I’m always looking at what’s new, what’s out, sh*t like that, so a lot of time his videos pop up. But the one that really caught my ear, like sealed it for me, was the ‘All Mine‘ joint that he did with Kanye. Where he was singing the falsetto sh*t, It was so crazy and I was like yo I gotta have him, but I had to have the right song first before I approached him with it. Yeah man, he’s nuts, his f**king harmonies he does and sh*t. Like it’s he’s out his mind.”
“The greatest rapper of all time,” according to Ty Dolla $ign, has been Eminem. He recently declared Slim Shady to be the GOAT while attempting to get the rapper to work with him.
“I have not done a song with Eminem yet,” Ty Dolla told Hot Freestyle on Wednesday (December 2). “Which I would love to. He’s the GOAT for sure. I always said like the only rapper that I think is better than Eminem is Slim Shady. So yeah it will happen for sure. What up, Em? Holla at me,” the ‘Or Nah’ singer said.
