Eminem and Dr. Dre aren’t just working on Slim Shady’s new album.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, the two are also crafting some original music for the new battle rap film Bodied. The movie, which is produced by Eminem, made its debut at the Toronto International Film Festival last week and garnered a positive reception.
The version shown at TIFF reportedly didn’t include much original music, so Eminem is making a few songs of his own to add once it’s ready for wider distribution. Marshall Mathers and longtime manager Paul Rosenberg decided to recruit Dre for a couple tracks too, adding to the star power.
Although Bodied was well-received at TIFF, it was not without controversy. The vulgar and racist language used in the film raised some questions for some of its audience, particularly those unfamiliar with battle rap. Director Joseph Kahn defended its use while noting that it wasn’t an endorsement of the words either.
“The battle rap world is an underground message of free speech,” he told THR. “But the film doesn’t automatically take the side of free speech because there’s still the question that we’re asking: ‘Is there a limit to it?’ It’s a legitimate question.”
who cares
you….apparently
Me
No current artist besides Eminem can even bring hype and demand for a project that makes anyone even care about it like artists did in 02-05. So many records sold. 50 EM GAME DRE SNOOP OBIE BUCK BANKS D12&even fuckin Tony SayNo aka the shittiest rapper to ever grace a mic went PLAT!!!!!!!! We only have Based God to save the genre now along with Pump me up Budden and Dj Ak.
Tony *Gayo
corrected
Pretty soon we’ll have antifa showing up at battle rap events to protest hurt feelings
Democrats becoming a small tent party very quickly. Identity politics has an expiration date.
There is no limit to free speech.
Dre pissing me the fuck off. Recording shit, teasing us with shit but no Detox. Dude,you getting old. Drop some shit before it’s too got damn late. Fuck. We fans are the muthafuckas who put you where you are today.
Bro, dre declared detox was dead in 2015 when he dropped Compton. Album was average. I assume dre will drop another album soon after Jon Connors debut. Remover, we still haven’t even heard kendrick on dre production. So something is up…
Dude, you got Detox. It was just renamed: “Compton: A soundtrack by Dr. Dre”.
Now stfu.
Dre has ghost beat maker
Scott Storch did “Still Dre”
Ah, the world stands STILL for these two musical giants
I’m a fan of Em, but I’m assuming by “new music for ‘Bodied’ sdtk”, this means another cheesy rap ballad like “Guts Over Fear” & “Phenomenal”..
Kinda hyped, I hope Em makes goof music thos time around though. A majority of his work from 2016/17 has been terrible. Its like he forgot how to rap again. Cool, you’re stuffing a million rhymes into a single bar, but how about staying on topic, having a nice flow, and picking better beats?
*Good.
*A majority of his work since 2002’s “The Eminem Show” has been terrible. – there i fixed it for ya
nobody cares it’s 2017 their last good collab was “Forgot about Dre” and that was back in 2000 yo
you sound retarded troll
There are only 2 stances to take on Free Speech – Either you support it or you don’t. All that other “I believe in free speech, except for….” nonsense means that you, in fact, do not believe in free speech at all.
Dr. Dre needs to produce an entire album for: LL Cool J, Public Enemy, Rakim, Big Daddy Kane.
The real last Em and Dre collab was released in 2009 and that was called, “Relapse.” That was not only Eminem’s worst record sale in his rap career, the Beatz by Dre was horrible. Dre last album, “Compton” was booty. Writers talk about a new Dre album like its exciting. But maybe they getting paid to write that. True hard core hip hop fans don’t feel that way. Because we would always get disappointed. Dre is no lrelevant. I rather listen to a Zae track than a Dre track. EM dont need Dre. Kendrick Lamarr don’t need Dre. He reps “TDE” anyway. Have his own crew of producers. Dre need them to cross promote anything new to get fans to listen to him. EM is bigger than Jay Z. Record sales and all that. He could easily get a deal thru Live Nation and do big thingz. All of Dre’s artist got shelved. The game was about to get shelved until 50 came a long. And 50 is doing better now then when he was with Aftermath. They to slow to do thingz over there. Pac said that. Eazy E made things happen. Dre should enjoy his beatz money and ride off in the sunset and let Jon Connor and the rest of them, out there contract. They were to release their first album years ago. I stopped listening to Dre’s music a long time ago. His last songs “Gun fyre” was straight dookie and the vocals was st8 shit. He needs to retire. He waited to long to do a N.W.A album. A Dre produced album featuring Ren and Cube would have been the bomb back in the day. He hasn’t had any chemistry with other producers since Dj Yella.
