    --------
    Yelawolf discussed the challenges that came with being the first White rapper signed to Eminem’s Shady Records. He described feeling overwhelmed by the influx of people looking to work with him, citing too many uninvited ideas that disrupted his creative process. Yelawolf likened the situation to the popular movie "Wayne’s World," wherein a famous underground show is taken over by a big corporation, leading to the loss of its original charm. Yelawolf felt the pressure of being a new artist and admitted to going along with others’ ideas even if they were not reflective of his musical vision. He did, however, acknowledge some of the songs on his first album, 'Radioactive,' were critically acclaimed. His second album allowed Yelawolf greater creative control, leading to bigger festivals and changing his career for the better.

I still bump it till this day and Justice League gave him a HELL OF A BEAT with that.

      Very true. Eminem stick on that late 90’s early 2000’s production process and style. It’s dated and just stale at this point. Eminem has said in interviews he’s stubborn and won’t let go of that either which is why his recent albums have been failures musically. He worked with Rick Rubin and made one of his worst records ever. Yelawolf is a true artist focused in growth.

    I really get the sense that he never really liked eminen. I’ve seen other interviews where he would sorta roll his eyes at any Em related question. Not the same eye roll that dame dash would give when asked about Jay Z, but just a disappointed vibe where I think he’s like “em isn’t who y’all think he is” idk, maybe I’m over thinking this.
