Eminem Aims For Perfection
December 16, 2002
Despite the success of 8 Mile, Eminem won't be going down that road
again anytime soon.
Rather than pursue an acting career, Marshall Mathers is more
interested in developing his Shady Records roster and producing hits.
"I'm staying in the studio," Eminem said on Wednesday. "I'm gonna
keep plugging away at that."
Shady's next project is the LP from Queens, New York, rapper
50 Cent, whose album is due in February. Obie Trice's long-awaited debut
will follow soon after.
"Obie is in the studio. His album is half-done," Eminem said on the
set of 50 Cent's new video, "In Da Club." "We are hoping for spring [for
Trice's release] and D12 in the fall. And we've already got songs for
that album. We sneak [recording D12] songs in between 50's album. And
Obie's album... expect the same quality as 50's album, from my album,
from Dre's album. It's the same type of producers, it's the same type
of perfectionists in the studio with every artist.
"We won't put it out unless it's perfect," he continued, pointing
toward his mentor, Dr. Dre, who appears in 50's clip along with Eminem.
"I learned that from this man right here."
Eminem has produced two tracks for 50 Cent's album and co-produced
several more, although it's his role as executive producer that he is
most enthused about.
"I'm there doing the mix downs and me and Dre are just overseeing
the whole project, making sure that every song is hot," he explained.
"I wish my first album was this hot. That's all I can say. I'm not
selling the album. The album is going to sell itself."
Slim Shady may be busy with his prot》g》s, but that doesn't mean
he's finished infecting the world with The Eminem Show. While in Los
Angeles for the 50 Cent video, Eminem is shooting a clip of his
own for his next single, "Superman."
"We're still going through the concept a little bit, but basically
it's the whole what a chick wants me to be to her and what I can be,"
Eminem explained. "It's her vision of me and me being a perfect gentleman
and this and that. And what I can be to her, because I know what she is
and I know why she's with me."
Eminem said the success of The Eminem Show, 8 Mile and his No. 1
single "Lose Yourself" has not changed the way he works on any of his
projects.
"It makes you more scared than anything," he said. "It puts your
expectations up to a certain level and you got to keep... making that,
so I try not to concentrate on it and just do what I am doing. Whatever."

感覺他有點朝Dre的模式看齊。
