Shady Records newest signee GRIP sat down with Bootleg Kev for an interview on his podcast. The Atlanta artist who was recently signed to the Eminem helmed label, dropped his album called “I Died For This?“. The album also featured the label boss, along with Royce Da 5’9”. On the show, Grip talks about his latest Eminem, signing to Shady Records, Atlanta artists, and more.
GRIP also shows off why Eminem f**ks with him as he spits bars in an unforgettable freestyle.
Grip also spilled some beans about how getting Eminem and Royce 5’9″ on “IDFT!” is a big deal. “I chose the record which I wanted Eminem to be on. I played it before I told him and he was like ‘Damn, this hook is dope as f**k.’ I was like ‘that’s all I wanted to hear.’ With Royce, I already had the song constructed, like, the first half and second half and he just took the whole middle portion and killed that s**t which is what I was expecting him to do but then with Em s**t, I spent 16 bars. I was trying to be lyrical and do my own thing so when I sent it him and he sent back I already knew he was coming at least 36 bars. He went in. He went the f**k off. I don’t change s**t. I don’t change nothing.”
“Em said he heard ‘Snubnose’ and the song ‘226’ caught his attention. I kinda rapping fast, switching cadences. For a long time, I was kinda upset cause it was great body of work and it fell under radar so for a long time I was frustrated. And its dope at least Em caught that s**t. It catapulted me to the next level. ”
