Eminem is an inspiration to a lot of people, 50 Cent explains how Eminem has influenced his music.
“Eminem gave me the shot that I needed at a point where he was so influential that there was nobody more influential than him, I don’t have value for a lot of the relationships that I developed coming up on this journey, but Eminem is the guy. He’s the one. He’s been consistent with me the entire time and I love him to death. I’d fuck all the way up for him. I’d do some shit that just wouldn’t allow me to come back into a comfortable space because somebody was doing something to that was inappropriate, to this day…The only thing strong enough to make an Eminem record not work is the possibility of it hurting Beats and helping SMS Audio. It’s the record with me, Eminem and Adam Levine. That one is the only one that Eminem has that you could technically look at and say it didn’t work, because it was confusion for the Beats brand. It makes sense now that it’s a billion-dollar move and it was important to the point that it couldn’t work.”
