Dutch from the legendary Philadelphia hip hop group Major Figgas recently showered Eminem with praise for his latest album, “The Death of Slim Shady (Coup de Grâce)”.
FEA and Dutch came on the My Expert Opinion podcast, where they talked about Marshall’s fresh release, among other things. With Math Hoffa they discussed the album in depth, highlighting its cohesive nature and Eminem’s lyrical prowess. And all agreed that “The Death of Slim Shady” is more than just a collection of tracks thrown together to meet a deadline.
Echoing Eminem’s instructions to listen to the album songs in order, Math Hoffa insisted that it is important to listen to it as a complete body of work and compared it to a captivating novel:
I love the new album. I listen to the whole shit [no skips]. Because that’s what it is, a body of work. Some people make projects that sound like a compilation. And there are some people who make specific projects that are all wrapped together to enjoy the whole movie. You can’t watch the beginning, you can’t watch the middle, and think that you got it. You gotta listen from start to finish. And I feel like “The Death of Slim Shady” is one of those projects that you have to listen to from start to finish.
Dutch agreed and praised Eminem’s strategic approach to album-making while consistently delivering top-tier tracks:
He always brings out great bodies of work to me. He has a strategy with that shit. He’s not just going in there just rapping. He’s saying from beginning to end, this book has to be a novel that people are going to read from beginning to end and get something out of every record. It’s never just going to be a throwaway with Em.
That’s not only Em’s achievement, thinks Dutch. Marshall has surrounded himself not with obedient sycophants but with talented artists and honest friends who maintain an unwavering quality control for him. Dutch specifically emphasised the role of collaborators like Royce 5’9 in ensuring Eminem’s consistent output:
It’s never just going to be a throwaway with Em. Because he’s got niggas like Royce around. You play your records for Royce and niggas like that, they gonna tell you. Royce is gonna, “No, that ain’t it”. I ain’t never heard Em spit a verse that was “that ain’t it” verse. I’m being honest. The guy is top of the fucking line.
It’s always good to see fellow rap legends salute Eminem’s work and talent, showing a new level of understanding of his craft that only an artist can have.
