The lyrical legend from Cypress Hill dropped some major props for Eminem on his YouTube channel.
B-Real revealed that Eminem randomly texted him about a recent collaboration B-Real did with Mr. Criminal. Apparently, Shady was feeling the bars so much, he started quoting them back. B-Real, clearly humbled by the recognition, says:
Hey, man, coming from you, it means a lot. ’Cause I respect the hell out of my bro. He’s my Top 3 all day. No one could shake this foundation ever.
But the lovefest doesn’t stop there! After hearing Em’s new single, “Houdini,” B-Real had to hit Shady back with some props. He raved about Eminem’s “ridiculous pocket”, praising the “crisp and clean” delivery and the return of that classic “old Eminem shit” – a potent mix of tight bars and signature dark humour. B-Real welcomes the comeback:
It’s that old Eminem shit. When it’s bars, and it’s funny. He’s brought the shock humour cynical bars back.
This mutual admiration between two hip hop legends is a beautiful thing to see. B-Real’s respect for Eminem is clear, and his praise for “Houdini” only adds to the growing hype surrounding the track.
And it is a call to all fans and hip hop heads alike. Blast “Houdini,” relive the glory of “old Eminem”, and celebrate the respect that flows between these lyrical giants.
