“ [after being asked if he’d ever do a track with Eminem] I’m not fin to go in there fuckin’ with that white boy, man! ”
“ I can’t forget the fact that that boy Eminem is incredible. He’s lyrically incredible. Anybody that’s ever sat and fronted on this dude’s talent is, like, come on, man. Stop playing me. ”
“ Eminem is tough, man. I don’t care what color he is. I don’t care about none of that. Real artists respect real artists, man… I tell people to this day. If Em was black, he’d be the next Muhammad Ali, man. ”
“ One thing that been with me is that Eminem is not to be fucked with ever in hip-hop, ever. ” “ If you notice, out of everybody I ever took a shot at, that’s the only person that is untouched. He’s in a bubble…
“ Nobody’s gonna be bigger than Eminem. ”
“ He assign so much lyrically and musically. He’s amazing. ”
” [On being called Eminem’s favorite rapper] My hat’s always off to Eminem…Eminem, that’s my dude…I’ve run into him on many occasions. My hat’s off to the dude. ”
“ If I hadn’t met Em or we hadn’t linked up, he would have eventually become a success anyway, because he’s so talented. I was just fortunate enough to meet him first and open the door for him. ”
“ Eminem is like the godfather of the hip hop game… Eminem has followers that’s gonna mess with him until the day he dies. ”
“ (on Recovery) I thought I wasn’t gonna like it, because ni**as was saying’, ‘Yo, it’s rock, and this and that.’ But that shit was hard…I think lyrically he’s back to where he was. That’s what I got from the album. ”
