Bizarre shares the wild journey of creating “Antichrist” with Eminem and a funny story that reveals just how dedicated Marshall is in the studio.

Bizarre sat down with Jacina Love of The Pull Up Show and talked about the space he carved for himself in hip hop, the Detroit streets, and also about his collaboration with Eminem on the track “Antichrist” from Marshall’s latest album, “The Death of Slim Shady”. The journey began when Eminem heard Bizarre’s collaborative album with Foul Mouth, “HGG3”:

I had sent Marshal my album, “HGG3”. And three days before it came out, he was like, “Yo, I want your verse off that song”. I’m like, “Damn, I had a whole song to that. That’s one of my dopest songs”. I was really contemplating it. I’m like, “Okay, I’m going to snatch it”. Then he was like, “I want three lines you said off another song called “Crime in the D”. I’m dead serious. I’m like, what?! He was like, “Man, just trust me”.

The process wasn’t straightforward: Bizarre recounted revising his verse 15 times until Eminem was satisfied, each tweak bringing the verse closer to perfection:

I sent him the verse and I ain’t going to lie, I did that verse over probably 15 times. Just changing lines. He didn’t like this line, do this line over…

I didn’t hear the song until it actually came out. I didn’t know that he was going to put it at the end of the song and it was going to come in with the “Guess who’s back”. A couple of them lines what I said, “My rent due, it is important. What you gon’ do? Sell them Eminem Jordans” — that was another song that the beat was way slower. So he took two lines from another song pieced it all together, put it in that song and made it on beat and made it all go together. Me and Foul Mouth was like, what the fuck is this?!

They both were floored by how Eminem pieced together lines from multiple songs, syncing them to the beat and even weaving in the iconic “Guess who’s back” hook. However, it was not the first time Eminem showed the studio magic to his friend.

Bizarre shared a memorable story highlighting Eminem’s work ethic. After recording some ad-libs for the track, Bizarre thought he was done — only to learn later that Eminem had re-recorded them in Bizarre’s voice because they didn’t sound quite right.

I guess it wasn’t the way he wanted it, so dawg went in there and sounded like me.

Bizarre laughed, showing just how far Eminem would go to get the perfect sound.

Well, it was not like that with “Antichrist”. Together, Bizarre and Eminem crafted a track that is as intense as it is memorable, proving once again that their creative chemistry is built on hard work — and a whole lot of Detroit grit.
