Producers talk about working on Eminems Relapse 2

With Eminem’s Relapse 2 being uncertain for a November release, two of its recruited heavyweight producers Denaun Porter Mr. Porter and Just Blaze have shed light on the album’s progress.

Porter detailed how his production relationship with Eminem has grown since their work on the superstar’s debut album, Infinite.
While many fans argue rapper’s earlier work are usually stronger because they are hungry for success, Porter feels Eminem’s quality has improved with his superstardom.

“It’s no fun when you’re broke,” he stated. “We were trying to do Infinite like we had more money when we didn’t have any. We were trying to get to a certain point, but now he’s got it. The reason he’s good is not because being white worked to his advantage. It did a little at first, but all day everyday the kid is writing. I don’t know if Jay-Z is writing all day. He owns multi-million dollar businesses. Em writes all day. Jay probably comes up with lines [and] that make him one of the greatest. I’m fighting, because Just Blaze came in and kicked ass.”

After leaking Jay Electronica’s “Exhibit C” and a Nas snippet last week, Just Blaze has renewed attention on what other tracks he has in the vaults, and what he’s developed for Relapse 2.

Due to their protective natures, Blaze revealed that his time with Eminem has been challenging despite their creative highs.

“It’s a challenge for both of us in the sense we’ve never worked with each other before. We’ve both been in the business 10 plus years,” Just Blaze explained. “We’re both very self-contained. He has his own production compound, and I have my situation with Bassline Studios in New York. Sometimes I’m like I need this [song] back in New York and he’s like I need it back in Detroit. It’s interesting because we’re both protective of the work and not wanting it to leak out. I’m in the same boat, because we both would lose money. Creatively it’s a good process. When it goes beyond a business arrangement, it always works out. I’ve had cases where people just want a beat because you’re Just Blaze. But here we are 2 people that are fans of each other’s work.”

Eminem Relapse storms to top of UK charts

Eminem’s comeback album Relapse has stormed to the top of the UK charts, becoming the fastest seller in Brittan so far this year.

In a recent interview with VIBE Magazine the 36-year-old described how he almost died after overdosing.

“I had taken so many pills that my immune system wasn’t functioning right,” he said.

“They told me if I’d gotten to the hospital two hours later, I would have died.”

Much of Eminem’s new album Relapse reflects his problems over last few years, in which he also had to deal with the death of close friend and fellow rapper, Proof, in 2006.

The rapper’s troubled relationship with his mother, Debbie Mathers Briggs, has been widely documented throughout his work.

But since overcoming his addiction Eminem revealed he is now sympathetic towards her.

“It never once hit me that drug addiction runs in my family,” he told VIBE Magazine.

“Now I understand I’m an addict, I definitely have compassion for my mother. I get it.”
