“When Eminem shouts me out, man, it’s nothing but love,” he said. “He said, like, I almost made him stop rapping when he heard me — when I heard Eminem, I almost stopped rapping. I’m like, ‘This guy right here, you cannot top nothing he’s saying right now.’
He continued, “It’s not ’cause he a white boy that he getting the accolades, he getting anything else — he’s one of the dopest MCs to touch the mic ever in history, and if you got a problem with it, say it so he can chew your a-s out the f–kin frame.”
“Em, you know what, I’m working on a solo album and I ain’t takin’ it to nobody but you. So you got it out there in the universe. Come see me — love you.”

Previously, he also stated that he would only do an album if Eminem collaborates. “Never done, never even attempted to do a solo album. I’ve got heat rocks. And the only one to put it out, the only one I trust to do it with labels and all the rest of that, it’s somebody who really got love for me and it’ll only go through him. So if he wants the offer he got it, if he doesn’t y’all will never hear the solo album from me. In a minute, In a heartbeat, It will also be the first time you hear me and him on a record cause you know Em gonna be all on the album.”
In an interview, Treach also called Eminem his light-sking twin. “I tell everybody that’s [Eminem] my light-skin twin Slim Shady,” he said. “Hats off to him, man. He’s one of the greatest of all times if we talk about GOATs, his lyrical prowess, his consistency throughout the years, no matter what he’s been going through personally, he always comes out on top, still Comes out and give that music. Supplies the fans with that real live musical dope. It’s no-one like him and it’s not going to be no-one like him ever. Might never been another one who could do them lyrics and put them songs out. Hats off always and I hope he just never stops because the way I was inspirational to him… he’s inspirational to me. When I hear him I go and start writing all over again.”
