'It's the Eminem that you missed, that you loved, that you need,' producer says of long-awaited album.
Eminem mentioned during the "TRL" finale earlier this month that he's hard at work on his upcoming album Relapse — but he wasn't giving up many details.
However, when we caught up with one of his producers, Swizz Beatz, at the Black Ball, Keep a Child Alive's annual fundraiser, in New York earlier this month, he filled in a few blanks for us.
Swizz said he's worked on five songs with Eminem, including one featuring both Dr. Dre and 50 Cent. "I don't know the title yet, but it's classic," he said. "It's sounding big."
Another song Swizz worked on with Em is a track they're referring to as a "Stan Part 2." "You know how 'Stan' ... was the big [song]?" Swizz asked, referring to the obsessed-fan track which sampled Dido's "Thank You." "So I worked on part 2, and I think it was, like, totally genius."
Swizz said that while Eminem has apparently been away from the mic for a long time, he's in good form on Relapse. which, Em said on "TRL," will be out next year, in "probably January, February."
"It's different," Swizz said. "Different sound, different mindframe. He's clear. But it's the Eminem that you missed, that you loved, that you need, especially right now in the industry, going into '09. He's coming back to take the cake."
Swizz said that politically minded songs like "Mosh" are "not really" on the agenda as much as "a lot of personal stuff."
Asked whether that subject matter involved Eminem's rehab stint, the death of his close friend/ D12 member Proof, his second divorce from Kim Scott, or his mom's recent memoir, Swizz laughed and said, "I can't give it away!"
Making a key difference in Em's new mindset, however, is that he has "a lot of people supporting him this time," Swizz said. "I just think you can hear a new energy in him. And, you know, the producers, everyone's bringing forth their best on that level."
On "TRL," Eminem also mentioned that he'd "done probably a hundred songs in the last couple of years," and Swizz said that it's still being decided which tracks will make the final cut.
"How it works: They get a whole bunch of songs," the producer explained, "and it's not over until the budget is closed and the artwork is done. It's just an ongoing thing."

how could a track with 50, em and dre turn out to be completely wack? i think that's quite a tough one but the answer is right here - if swizz beatz was involved/produced it :laugh:
-
i hope its true that it is real dope
but its so hard to believe what they say
remember when TI said eminem was dope on his upcoming album the TIvsTIP one and eminem turned out to be wack as fuck on that shit, but i hope it is true cos I do miss the eminem from 8mile soundtrack eminem show and marshal mathers lp
-
is there anyone that actually looks forward to this new Eminem album?
-
stan part 2? that's pointless
-
Swizz should be as far away as possible from an Em album. I only want Dre, Em and Denunan Porter. He is too much of a hit or miss, like the T.I. track is banging but the Ludacris one is plain garbage.
-
well swizz on dmxs old albums was pretty dope. But nah his new stuff would be kinda wack...
-
It's really up to em in the end... Swizz makes the beats, but Em picks which to rap over.

He probably rapped on everything Swizz provided, but if they put those songs on the album is the key issue.
I'm looking forward to this coming out - Em is one of my favourites, I guess, so I'm always looking out for him. But after his last trash effort I'm remaining cautious. I'm not expecting a mind-blower, if he makes it back to the standard he was at, I'll be happy.

TI said that he did 2 songs with Eminem though.

^ya and the other track they did concept sounded sick as fuck..Eminem rappin givin TI advice on how he should deal/control with TIP and TI rappin givin advice on how Em should deal/control Slim Shady..I can't believe they dropped this for that wack ass "touch down"
hopefully this still makes Relapse
-

Swizz Beatz? What happened to that "Dre is producing almost all of the album". I was looking forward for a Dre production but I fear that there is gonna be like 2-3 Dre Co-production tracks and other stuff is by Swizz, Storch and such producers. Sounds like The Big Bang, I hope I'm wrong.

hehe, my comment was ironic ;) :laugh:
you see, some posters ( not sure if that includes you) said that Dre should hook up with Mike again, so when you said that the beat of encore was terrible i had to make a joke about it :laugh: ;)

I would like to see dre hook back up with mel-man and original team and get some new talent in and see what they can cook up together with bringing the best from the old back and seeing what the new can inspire them to do. As for Mike, i did not even know he had left the team let alone bring him back...dang
