Full Interview w/ LL Cool J: Eminem’s childhood, music influences and legacy which no one will be able to beat

KXNG asked Marshall about his chart success but for Eminem, the recognition of his childhood idols is more important.

10 number ones on Billboard 200 – that’s incredible. Have you ever imagined that?

Never in the history of my life. What for me is incredible – is to meet my childhood idols. LL Cool J – my favourite rapper of all times – ever. When I made “Relapse” album, he sat in a car, in a track, and we drove around. And he listened to the whole album. And I was sitting there thinking “I don’t even know what to say”. Before we got into the track I was “I just wanna say what you mean to me, man. I’m a stan of you”. Just for 15-16 years old Marshall to think that that can actually happen one day, LL Cool J is sitting in the car with me listening to my album. Get the fuck out of here!
