Jimmy Iovine had this to say about Eminem’s Relapse:
“I’ll tell you about Eminem,” he said. “We only tried to put him out this year to replace Dr. Dre, but we got into a quagmire. Eminem was always coming next year. But what happened was, I lost Dr. Dre to Eminem. Dre had to stop making his album to finish Eminem’s album. Eminem hit a streak, and when a guy like Eminem gets on fire, you stop everything. That’s how we lost Dre. Dre’s going back in January. He’ll be finished with Eminem by then, and he’ll finish his album.”
Shaheem Reid, the author of the original MTV article quoted above, also talks about Eminem’s new (and unfinished) song “Number One” that is reportedly produced by Dr. Dre (LISTEN).
