During his appearance, Eminem talks about the Detroit Underground Hip-Hop scene. “Coming up in Detroit, in the Underground Scene Back in the days, we had like kind of a community where everybody kinda knew each other or if you didn’t know anybody and you wanted to make a name for yourself you would come up in that scene and wherever there was an open mic, you might be able to get on the mic and rap. And that’s where the Hip-Hop Shop comes into play. Every Saturday, the best of the best emcees in Detroit would come and everybody would just rhyme and they kinda passed the mic around. Every once a month we had a battle. That was one of the things that was so great about our underground scene in Detroit, coming up,” says Eminem.
Mikey Eckstein, a producer, and actor, demonstrated how it worked by providing an example from one of Eminem’s early shows, in which he was booed but the audience was brought to order and attention by a DJ: Initially, [Eminem] got booed, and DJ House, who was DJing for him, came out and told everybody basically to shut the f**k up. This is Detroit, this is Detroit hip hop, you need to respect that, and you need to listen to what this man is saying. After that, the crowd kind of changed its tone. That was the first time I’ve got put onto Eminem. That was dope.
Detroit Rapper Esham also appeared on the show and said that there’s no feud between him and Eminem. “Just to set the record straight, to let everybody know, there is no beef between me and Eminem. That was rap s**t. Rap was a full contact sport back in the 90s. So yeah, I might do some jabs and I might have took some. Back then I might talk about your mamma, everybody. That’s how rap was. But as far as I’m concerned, Eminem put the Detroit rap on the map.”
