    "For real, that s--- was just on some other s---."

    Eminem might be a self-proclaimed Rap God but he's far from the only person to acknowledge his otherworldly writing and rapping abilities.

    During a recent interview with MONTREALITY, T.I. not only praised Slim Shady for his incredible skill set but also explained what, exactly, makes him such a rare breed.

    "Em is probably one of the most talented, capable, intellectual technicians of wordplay I have ever experienced," said T.I., who worked with Eminem in 2007 on T.I. vs. T.I.P. track "Touchdown" and again in 2010 on No Mercy highlight "That's All She Wrote."

    "He's really meticulous with his approach to how he put his s--- together. Both times we worked [together], I had the opportunity to sit in there and watching him actually put this s--- together, it was just truly of another world. For real, that s--- was just on some other s---."

    T.I. didn't save all of his high praise for Eminem, though. The veteran rapper also lobbed roses at the feet of André 3000, saying, "Him and 3000 are the most meticulous artists I have ever worked with and they are very critical of themselves. There were times where I felt s--- was dope, and they were like, 'Naw.'"

    So, not only are Eminem and 3 Stacks two of the most highly-respected, successful artists in hip-hop history, but they have also staunchly refused to be "yes men"? To think, if one of them were available to A&R NAV and Metro Boomin's Perfect Timing album, it might never have been released.

    Obviously we all already knew this but it's still nice to hear these stories about his writing and his process, especially from other artists.

    I've always hoped he'd do a real documentary one day, like cameras following him around as he's making an album, so we could really get to see how he works and what the process is like.





    (and why s--- gets delayed)

    Em not responding to my phone calls...let me give an interview describing how great he is...so that we can do another song together lol

    any Eminem feature is usually golden for any artist in music industry...guaranteed listens and will make money even if its sub-par track

    You can take as long as u like and be meticulous about every word but, in the end if the result is Touchdown and All She Wrote, then it's a waste of time.
