Designer Mike Saputo crafted the logo for Eminem’s Shady XV compilation in 2014 and had anticipated doing some more designs for a potential Shady XX release last year to celebrate Shady Records artists. But according to a recent Instagram post, the idea was ultimately shelved and Saputo was left with multiple unused logos for the project.
“So sometime last year, we started working on some things to celebrate Shady’s 20th,” he explained in the caption. “I worked up a ton of logos and other assets for it. Ended up the project never made it to the light of day unfortunately. So I was left with a whole bunch of stuff I thought came out pretty good, but nowhere to use it. Such is the design life.
“Here’s a first batch of just some of the stuff I did, there was a ton. I am particularly fond of the Deadpool-esque logo done of Skam’s mummy from SSLP, with the bandages forming an XX.”
Shady Records affiliates Westside Gunn and Boogie were surprised by the idea of a Shady XX project and weighed in on Twitter. Westside wrote, “U learn Something new Everyday,” while Boogie said, “Definitely lol.”

Fuck this CNN social justice warrior self-hating white cuckold.
GTOH old man.. you’re washed up.. old ignorant dope fiend.. wack wappitty wap ass raps.. corny .. eat shit old fool.. you can’t keep up..
There is not one new artist that is as good an mc as Em … and if you want to talk numbers not skill they do not even sell close to the same numbers … so little guy … it’s your zoomerz that cant keep up lol … just because you are a racist and judge Em on his skin color doesn’t mean that man is a wack rapper lol you are a wack human … hopefully after you go through puberty your thought processes will evolve … until then … see you when I pass you in your hallway after long stroking your mom
He said nothing about his race. Why do you Eminem fans love to bring that up, even if they don’t say it? You’re a whole breed of stupidity.
Because that’s where the hate for Em stems from junior … the lack of respect for one of the best to ever do it from the majority of one race shows it … called common sense … and I’ll be racing to your house after I’m done with the original posters mom … 3way with your sister and grandma
Sounds like you’re the junior with that comment. Not even gonna bother replying to whatever you’re gonna say next. Stay in school and wear your mask.
Now that’s hilarious el captain underpants. as if you weren’t aware already but apparently everything has to do with race or is racism.
Em sucks because his rhymes are booty.. his concepts are dated and his yabby dabby Bullshit is corny.. not because he’s white.. his whiteness … is just lol
Okay, what if he just doesn’t like Eminem’s style of rapping? Like it’s not his flavor? It’s not always about race. Maybe there’s other white rappers he prefers over Em. The fact you have more flames than Here we go again ,who pointed it out to you, only proves his point.
You’re obviously correct.. em stinks up every track that he gets on these days.. he’s 50+ .. he’s old, smelly and pissy.. geyser rap is not popping.. balding old trailer trashees love em.. it’s sad.. give him his meth pipe back.. I have lowered expectations for this old babbler..
You’re obviously right AND EL CAPITAN OBVIOUS / yo bum asses type the same! LOL!!! Same guy liking his own sh!t… Eminem got you all kind of wack young lady … You using mom’s phone for a different IP too?
IF YOU’RE A STAN… fuck you..
