    idk what you mean. he produced a handful on MMLP2, had a beat or two on Yelawolf's album, had a beat or two on Skylar's album, had a handful of his own beats on ShadyXV as well.

    He didn't.

    He produced Right for Me, Vegas, All I Think About, and I'm pretty sure he produced k--- for You as well.

    All recent songs (for Em's standards at least)

    He really only stepped back on Relapse, to focus on his rapping, as he had been gone and fallen off so much skills-wise that he just wanted to focus on that. On Recovery he didn't produce full beats but hand his hands on many...

    Then on MMLP2 he produced quite a bit. Some of the best beats on the album. Dope production on Shady XV too @ Vegas in particular... Which is kind of a new sound for Em. The distortion and just the vibe of it - also dope beat @ All I Think About on Southpaw Soundtrack.

    In fact, given his level of production on MMLP2, then the fact he produced pretty much everything on Shady XV and his s--- on Southpaw Soundtrack - I have assumed for a while that he's probably producing this whole next album. I think that's part of the reason for the time too, if I had to guess - I'd say he's been working with Porter, Batson, Bass Bros... a few close to him but overseeing and coming up with a new sound. At least I hope. Because another batch of random a--- beats won't do. He needs to reinvent his sound, not just his rapping.
