Alchemist Loves When Eminem Performs “Underground”
“Underground” is definitely a stand-out track from Relapse. Here’s what Em’s current tour DJ, the Alchemist, told MTV about performing the song:
“When I first heard [Relapse], that was the song I said, ‘This is gonna shut mutha—-ers up.’ Straight up. It would not be an issue,” Al said. “Nobody would be like, ‘I didn’t like this, I didn’t like the flow.’ … When we perform that song, Em takes a spot on the stage, and that’s it. He picks a spot and dumbs out. There’s not a lot of moving.
“When we’re rehearing the song, you know, ‘This is gonna be something crazy.’ He says, ‘Turn the lights down,’ they put the spotlight on Em, and it’s just snap rap. In the current day and age, you don’t hear songs like that. It doesn’t seem like any of that other sh– going on in the world or in the music industry was going on in his mind when he [made the song]. He was strictly into the craft. I don’t think anybody is f—ing with that.”
