CYHI THE PRYNCE SUGGESTS EMINEM USED GHOSTWRITERS: ‘IT’S CALLED D12 & PROOF’

CyHi The Prynce has spent years in the studio with marquee artists like Kanye West and Travis Scott, and he’s used that experience to speculate about Eminem‘s creative process.

As a guest on Math Hoffa’s My Expert Opinion podcast, CyHi share some thoughts about Slim Shady in a clip that dropped on Thursday (February 8).

The rapper began by saying that in his opinion, Eminem was a “top five” rapper.

“With no ghostwriters,” commented co-host Mecca, a comment that inspired CyHi to talk about the nature of inspiration.

“You think he ain’t have no ghostwriters?” CyHi responded. “Man, you ain’t sitting around 12 n-ggas just fucking smoking blunts. It’s called D12. It’s called Proof. It’s called all them n-ggas he grew up with.”

CyHi made clear, however, that he was not necessarily saying those people wrote bars for Eminem. Instead, he said that it was important for rappers to surround themselves with people who bring them “thoughts,” “ideas,” and “experiences.”
