Nearly 20 years ago, Detroit, Michigan rapper Eminem appeared in an on-air cypher on Baruch College Radio’s Solo Vibes radio show. Over the weekend, audio from Em’s radio appearance was released.
In addition to releasing audio of the radio show featuring Eminem, DJ Sincere, one of the hosts of the Solo Vibes radio show spoke on how the rapper’s appearance on their show came about.
“Skam (mentioned on the Eminem song ‘Stan’) had met Eminem thru his manager Paul Rosenberg and gave P-Love his demo maybe in mid November,” DJ Sincere said while speaking exclusively with HipHopDX. “Skam always spoke about how dope Eminem was and thanks to him and Shabaam Sahdeeq (who along with DJ Spinna and a few other underground emcees: A.L (All Lyrics), Kwest, and Skam were recording a few songs with Shabaam for his single on Rawkus records) had hooked up Em to come to our show the night before to come thru on Tuesday. We already had A.L on our show and since A.L had recently won a battle event in NY. We thought it would be cool to pair him with Eminem to rhyme back and forth, (there were only two microphones so only two MC’s could go at a time.”
DJ Sincere went on to describe Eminem, who was joined by his manager Paul Rosenberg, as “somewhat shy or just cool” during his time at the studio and says the rapper “killed it” with his freestyle. The Solo Vibes radio show host also recalled Rosenberg bringing Royce Da 5’9 to their radio show months after Eminem’s appearance.
“I remember when Eminem came to the show with Paul Rosenberg,” he said. “Eminem comes in somewhat shy or just cool and I thought Paul was his bodyguard because he was a big dude. Needless to say Em killed it with a battle style that was so sharp, besides his flow and delivery, how he spit, what he spit, and how everyone in the room was so impressed. You could hear laughter, oooooo’s and ahhhhhs after some of his punch lines. All the emcees up there that night killed it and you could feel the energy and how raw it was just on some hip-hop shit. I thanked Eminem and kept in touch with Paul over the course of the years we continued the show. He brought up an unsigned rapper named Royce Da 5’9 a few months later and we made history that night as well but that’s another story.”
Eminem’s freestyle on the Solo Vibes radio show came roughly one year after the release of his debut album, Infinite, and a little over a year before the release of his highly-touted follow-up, The Slim Shady LP.

Can someone please tell me how this chick is still writting for this site? And the funny thing is this isnt hate, i see ppl comment all over her posts…..she cant write…..not journalism at the very least….case and point: the second paragraph…multiple and run-on parenthesis inside of a quote of all places!!!!…..and dont give me the typical ‘who cares about grammar’ response….this is bad to the point where the stories are impossible to follow
Just terrible
Well, it’s not nearly as terrible as your grammar.
Before you criticize a rapper, try to spit a bar.
Before you criticize a writer, try to write a sentence.
back when Em was lyrical as fuck…without spittin a million words in a bar
Most people I talk to have 1 of 2 opinions
He is still the best out their
or
I prefer to listen to anything before the Eminem Show (to keep any nostalgia)
Why cant people say that this guy is irrelevant in rap, had three good albums then completely faded away?
Also stop hating against journalists, at least shes contributing something unlike you braindead welfare claiming, too doped out motherfuckers
Dont call her a journalist you dumbass……that’s an insult to anyone who actually writes for a living
So to summarize your post: Why doesn’t everyone feel the same way i do about eminem?!. Allow me to answer, it’s because you’re a fucking moron, hope this helped you to understand. Also you used the wrong there, i know it’s the internet but come on.
My dude your so wack you don’t realize your own comment on this damn song Invalidates the very shit your trying to say in the comment you lil ho.

real Eminem fans have heard this before
That REAL Slim. I miss that shit. He’s a different rapper now
he got older and rich..still can rap
eminem is still good. he matured, he a different person.
Lol hip hop dx is so dead that its putting up freestyles from 1997 lololol however Em goes of on this shit miss the old em and A.L went in. “Class clown freshman, dressed like Ness Lessman, fuck the next lesson, I’ll pass the test guessing”-Eminem. Lol this was me in highschool
“so when you see this pencil squeezed between my fingers
I am not a rapper i am a demon who speaks english”
“My lyrics will make ur mind loss,toss and juggle
So suck my dick, while I take a shit and do this crossword puzzle”
Em is just too nasty
i just think when Eminem came back he forgot how write songs again you can tell drugs fuck him up when he got off it i just think his time is up Eminem doesn’t fit in 2014 no more in 2000 it was cool as fuck i was on his dick lot now he just another white rapper who can rap he kind fuck his own self up old Eminem would attack rick ross young money but he turn around did songs with them i think that’s when fans start turn on him he stood for something in 2000 he didn’t stand for wack music like now and now he trying be like old Eminem but too late now he fuck up
i was thinking the same thing.. i mean eminem can rap better than ever, he can out battle anyone his mind in hiphop is amazing that said he cant make a song to save his life thats why he has all these pop singers.. eminem in hiphop is so personal that when he has nothing to talk about he just reraps same shit.. he forgot how to just rap.

This song disproves both of you.
It’s funny how these mainstream pop rappers that are popular now don’t even know how to freestyle and if you asked them to they would probably say it’s whack and pay me because they can’t. Where did they even come from nobody even has even heard of 99% of these new pop rappers out now that are so popular now days until they are on the radio all of the sudden. They are all actors with a roll created by their labels. At least Eminem has MC skills and paid dues.
