Words from Eminem and Denaun Porter

“

D12’s Denaun (aka Kon Artis) used to do all my beats and he had the original track. I personally think this was the best song I did on that album. That was ’95, ’96—the era of just rhyming for the hell of it. People at one point actually said I sounded like Nas, ’cause I used all these big words. This is show-your-skill type shit.

We gravitated towards that song so much. My influence was from A Tribe Called Quest – AZ and Nas was also it at the time. So we were just trying to get a song on local radio – that was the goal. We just wanted to make it on the air. We went so far as doing commercials; Bushman got like two or three commercials out of us. We were just happy to be on the show.
