Teletubby 150,197 Posted October 5, 2021 Share Posted October 5, 2021 John recently recorded with Young Thug for his upcoming album, The Lockdown Sessions. The two plus Nicki Minaj collaborated on the song, “Always Love You”. John recalled the rapper freestyling in the studio and being "just blown away. Elton John revealed that he thought Thug had the upper hand over Eminem: “I mean, I’ve seen Marshall [Mathers] do it in Detroit, but I’ve never seen someone like Thug come in and do that.” John added that he was “blown away” by what Thug produced and went into detail on the recording process: “In the end, I had to leave because I think he felt a bit intimidated that I was there and I just wanted him to relax. But it’s just an amazing moment in my musical life. I have no understanding of how rap records are put together and it’s fascinating to watch.” Elton ended up offering Young Thug advice after finding out the rapper used to be a choirboy: “‘Sing more. Don’t just rap, sing more, because the mixture of rap and musicianship and melody is what really makes rap take off.’ source "You b*tch!" ~ Rat Boy Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShayCristoforo 10,607 Posted October 5, 2021 Share Posted October 5, 2021 Young Thug is pretty influential. Lots of people try to imitate his style, maybe even unknowingly. Plus he's smart at crossover genres. But Eminem is a true legend. He's on a top tier with Jay Z, Kendrick, J Cole, etc. Get the pinot ready, because it's turtle time.
