Snoop revealed the project that will have an Eminem feature and admitted how challenging it was for him to work with Em.
The West Coast veteran has been talking about his joint with Marshall for quite some time now, but this is the first time he gave an indication of which of two of his upcoming projects will have a contribution from Eminem. Apparently, they got together not for Snoop’s solo album “Algorithm” set to drop in November, but for Mt. Westmore’s album. The supergroup, which includes Snoop Dogg, Ice Cube, Too $hort and E-40, will also have an honourable guest from Detroit on their album expected to arrive in January.
Snoop told to the Rolling Stone Music Now podcast that he and Eminem recorded their song about two months ago and that it was not a walk in the park to work with such a reckless lyricist as Marshall:
That motherfucker slap. It was very challenging for me, I’ll say that. Eminem really fucking shot at me, he shot his shot. And as a rapper, that’s what you want when you get a feature, to have to fucking work your ass off. You want somebody to come to the playing field, putting up points, to where you got to rethink your shit and say, ‘Well, damn, this is what he thinks of me. That’s why he’s going so hard, because he knows that I’m going to match him on the same level.’ And that’s what it is when you make records with people that you love and family. It’s competitive, but it’s competitive for the right reasons to bring the best out of each other.
