Discussing Em's fire remix of Masta Ace's "SlaughtaHouse", his influence on Em coming up and the long mysterious "Hellbound" fake collab between the two.
MASTA ACE SLAUGHTERHOUSE is so underrated, it's an absolute fucking classic, it's one of the most street without being thug albums I've ever heard, it had a sound which I believe at the time was the most underground real hip hop sound that has ever been produced, in fact it's so damn good it's back in my car and aces voice is one of a kind, can't believe it's not up there with Nas illmatic as far as most important albums in hip hop
Dope interview, em should've signed Master Ace, he heavily influenced Em. You can literally hear it in a lot of his music, especially the earlier stuff. Ace is a Beast!
@@prof3ssor178 What the fuck is that supposed to me? His catalogue is literally better than every single rapper on shady records with the exception of em........
Two facts: 1. Masta Ace made his choice of being an independent musician way before this interview, he was not happy doing music for the industry and decided to do everything his way. Eminem probably understand this and couldn't offer Ace what he wanted, which is not exactly money and fame, and Ace would probably not accept either, even though they respect and like each other. 2. Eminem is a beast, but Masta Ace is a Hip Hop legend, comparable to names like Rakim, Nas and Guru. Eminem is definitely great, but imho he is not on Ace's level at all, even though Ace acknowledges Eminem as a being better with rhymes than him. Eminem's songs are funny, shady, aggressive, on point, but Ace's albums paints a clear and vivid picture of his life experience and feelings, the places he has been, where most of the things are connected to tell a same story across multiple albums, and to which multiple people across the globe can relate and get to know a reality that isn't theirs. It's just timeless, it never gets old. I'm not saying that you people are wrong by preferring Eminem or anything, but don't treat Masta Ace like he's a broken ass rapper, a loser that couldn't make it in the rap game. He is a living Hip Hop legend who's been active since 88 with an untouchable work and it is visible he is happy with his work and life in general.
How the fuck did em not hear one of the classics?!! Hellbound is my shit from yeeeeears ago and one of the things that turned me on to em...brought me to this interview as well
Amazing, one of my classics too, nobody ever mentions it and ace never gets credit, there are virtually no comments in comments section on slaughterhouse album
Eminem + Slim shady + Marshall Mathers = The Holy RAP Trinity.... 1-G.O.A.T, 2-RAP GOD, 3-ALIEN. He's a top tier lyricist that always respects the GREATS b4 him, always practices his craft, is humble and stayed in his lane from the beginning and hasn't changed for no one. The HATERS = SECRET LISTENERS WHO LOVE HIS SWAG, But front cause he's " WHITE "......If that wasn't the case they'd be swinging from the nut sack. He keeps breaking records, all while being the only dude from 2000's still rockin it nd on TOP....And when they want him to come down after talking smack he answers back nd ends careers. Just on another level all toghether...And there are levels to this shit...lol...he's LEAGUES ABOVE THEM LEVELS. So they need to get that work in to catch up because This Right Here is HISTORY!!!!.... KEN KENIFF OUT!.........
theres a short video clip interview promoting some new jordan shoes from 08 where he still has a bit of his excess weight, but hes sober. There's a couple of radio interview also from late 08 when he was releasing his "way i am" book.
You know how white people always snitch on shit that has nothing to do with them? That's what you doing right now Karen Masta Ace is right there and he has no problem with em, even wanted to be on a track with em in 2001, he's the one who played hellbound for em...so
