Eminem wishes the legendary Treach on his birthday.
Treach is one of Shady’s favorite rappers as he mentioned it many times and once again, Eminem decided to acknowledge the legendary lead ‘Naughty By Nature‘ rapper on his 50th Birthday.
“Happy b day 2 @triggertreach 1 of the greatest rappers of all time!!..I’m still tryin 2 catch up 2 the greatness of the last vs on “Craziest”!!!” tweets Eminem, who rarely wishes anyone. Recently Treach appeared on Fat Joe’s live stream where he called Eminem his ‘Light-skinned brother’.
Marshall has already expressed his admiration for this Naughty By Nature MC. During his interview with KXNG Crooked, Em confessed that he almost stopped up rapping because he felt he’d never be able to match Treach’s abilities: Treach, I don’t see on a lot of lists, either. And that sh*t is infuriating to me, because I think that, again, when you’re talking about, like, Rakim did something that’d never been done, and Kane did something, then G Rap did something that’d never been done. I think what happened with Treach, and this is just in my circle of friends that we talk about sh*t, one of the common things said is, “Well, he did ‘O.P.P.’ and he did ‘Hip Hop Hooray’”. But he was still rhyming his a** off on those songs, but he also did something to me, in my opinion. There was a time period, probably between ’91 and about ’95 where damn near every rapper in the game was following him and trying to do what he was doing. Dressing like him, you know what I’m saying? The whole shit, moving like him. And he was getting on f**king songs and smoking everybody, and it was like, “Yo!” When I heard “Yoke the Joke”, and my f**king heart sank. My heart sank, because I was like, “I’m never gonna be this good. I might as well quit”, I didn’t write a rhyme for the entire summer, I said this on the Ice T documentary. But this is real sh*t, I didn’t write for an entire summer, and Proof was like, “Yo, man, he’s good, but you gotta keep”. And I was just like, “But I’ll never be that good”. By the time it got to “Wickedest Man Alive”, I was like, “I quit. I don’t want to do this anymore”.
Happy b day 2 @triggertreach 1 of the greatest rappers of all time!!..I’m still tryin 2 catch up 2 the greatness of the last vs on “Craziest”!!!
