After the Forever video aired, the rumors of Slaughterhouse going to Shady Records started to pick up speed. VIBE caught up with 1/2 of the machine to speak on them as well as their cameo in the video and their thoughts on the song.
There’s gonna be rumors when somebody see something like that but it just is what it is. We just all family. As everybody knows, Em is a good friend of mine. We’ve been good friends for years. I just had my Slaughterhouse brothers in town and [Eminem's manager] Paul [Rosenberg] asked me to come down and be in the video and they just happened to be in town with me so I just brought ‘em with me. – Royce
The song itself is kinda like an All-star lineup. It kinda symbolizes each person is playing their position just how LeBron does on the court and his team, so it’s kinda cool. I like the song. Em ripped it. I think he hit the home run, but I liked everybody’s verses. – Crooked I
It was like they set the alley-oop for him and he just dunked it. Normally when you got that many MCs on a song, the song can get boring after a while but all of ‘em kept up the pace and Em came with a totally different flow and just kinda stole it. – Royce
Then of course the question of whether or not Slaughterhouse would rock a freestyle over Forever came up. In which Crook responds…
That would be a good idea. The song’s about six minutes so that’s what we do. We be making some real long songs… That’s right up Slaughterhouse alley.
Crooked I’s Pig Face Weapon Waist EP is now looking at an October release; which may fall before or after Royce’s album, Street Hop (October 20th).
slaaaauuuugggghhhhtttteeeeerrrrrr…..
still royce never rally said they wern’t lol but that would be sick, to do a freestyle over that beat, i need some new slaughter
god damn crooked get your shit together with that EP, i know for a fact its just about finished and people have heard songs off it, so lets get that goin. no way it should drop after fucking street hop its an EP
^^its been done. nothing on crook’s end is holding it up. politics are as usual…
Funny how slaughterhouse needs Eminem to gain attention. Everyone knew that these 4 throw away rappers would flop. And it was proven by that medicore album. Raekwon alone sold more then all of their albums released in the last 5 years. Slaughterhouse, Royce, Crooked, Joell and Buddens will never make a lasting inpression in hiphop. They are all hypocritical. No concepts on their albums, bland bragging raps…thats about it.
I put my money of the fact that they never drop a second LP.
…..i neeeed Mr. Pig Face Weapon Waist.
Lmao Joe Budden makes all bragging raps? Maybe on SH records but you clearly haven’t heard his solo shit. Escape Route is a very nice listen.. Same with Padded Room. If you’re putting all your money on them not dropping a second LP, you’ll be bankrupt by the end of 2010 or maybe mid-2011. They would definitely gain from Em’s mainstream appeal but what’s wrong with that?
Co Sign Smittys
They will have another album if not more and they will gain more haters as proven in the above comment.
Are you serious? Buddens is known for taking bars directly from his “internet soldiers” from his message boards. That is a proven fact. He is a 1 dimensional MC, let alone one of the biggest herbs in the rap game.
Crooked I is a joke and has been unable to drop an album in 10 years. But he has tons of excuses. Royce the 5’9″ has no flow. He trys to make bars rhyme but they sound wack. Besides, I lost respect for Royce after the whole D12 beef when he was running around on camera touting his bullet proof vest crying about having to watch his back then waving his little tiny .22 around like a dork. They are all label busts. Their highly anticpated album was a FLOP. Just check 4 the numbers. The concept was a good idea considering they could gain sales from different locations since they were all from different areas, but in the end, it was a failure.
I am sorry to hurt your feelings if you are a buddenstan.
Actually smitty your a fucking idiot. Seeing as Shady Records is now interested in signing them after only putting out one independent album, it doesnt look like such a big flop after all you moron. Im sorry to hurt your feelings if your a wu-tang dick rider, but in case you werent aware Raekwon, the man who you seem to have put on a pedestal, fucks with Slaughterhouse and now has 2 joints with Crooked I and one with Joell. Suck on it brotha. Numbers dont say it all.
Joe buddens is a trick he gets played by the industry Even his gyrl abused him and cheated on him He gets no respect in the industry nowadays everyone istaking shots at him and he is doing nothing royce the 59 got beat up by trick trick and heads in detroit abuse him he dont go around the hood no more thats word Crooked I is another wankster there was a video put out about deathrow records and they discussed how crooked couldnt walk around long beach cause mad pirus wanteed to get at him for rollin with death row ithink he may have gotten his chain snatched His C.O.B. crew is nothing but a little boys treehouseclub and carry no weight in cali ya betta ask some body the word in the industry is that joell who is the only nice wrapper in slaughterhouse plays for the other team if you know what i mean so i am sorry if i offended any slaughterhouse stans but i am speaking from the heart
Smitty
No-Sigh anything you just said
Royce has no flow, Crooked I is a joke and Budden is known for taking bars from c-sections… do you listen to music or just skim through it word to Jay. Rae has a strong flowing and is the definition of a vet, dudes gonna sell… to each is own but damn show a lil respect all 4 of those dudes got bars.
yo it apears that i have humilated you with my previous post i am very sorry for hurting your feelings i know how you slaughterhouse stans roll your all caucys fromnice suburban neighborhoods who live with your mammys and drive daddys lexus you are also computer dorls and call yourselfs internet soldiers why cant crooked i release an ep isnt it strange just so you know i am with a major label and have been informed by higher ups royce the 59 playsx the tough buy role but he is far from it ask around his way in the hoods if they know him they wont cuz he was a house nekku again slaughterhouse got exposed wu abused them all on crookeds turf and nothing happened period buddens got annihilated by inspectah and was scared to ever fire back with a diss track and u support this wanksta what a shame boy
this nigga Smitty said Royce Da 5’9 has no flow.
Do you even know what flow means nigga? Eat a bullet.
wow look at how easy it is to get you slaughterhoes stans panties in knots it is dysgusting how far up their anooses u iz get it rite boys they are3 nothing but a hype machine they even had sellout radio freindly songs on their album and could create a buzz to gain new fans sorry boys why hasnt buddenz addressed the kat that rocked his bell at rtb in la the kat kame out on vlad tv and sonned buddens again in an interview recently buddens stays taking Losses boy i feel bad for you caucys you wouldnt know good hip hop if it punched u in your face you would probably say you dodged it and took a hit in the shoulder then walk around frontin with a sholder brace and a black eye son
I have to agree with Smitty on the fact that non of their careers are ever going to go anywhere. Few people outside of the internet know who any of these guys are, ‘cept maybe Royce because of his affiliation with Em, and 98% of you guys on here arent buying music, so Smitty does have a point with the whole numbers thing. Im not saying they’re not talented, but to be honest, their music isn’t that exciting and Joe Budden is the prime example of that
neezyb i make beats of flames i aint no lame arse caucy like buddens but buddy frequency who runs from beef ya royce 59 has no flow sorry to offend you stanley his lines are weak yall know slaughterhoes look at them wankstas
Smitty, you’re an idiot. Quit trolling.
agree with wutang he basically states it more respectfully but when u dealin with a real kat like my self i state it like it is sorry boys its true you all rep slaughterhoes like crazy on the internet yet non of you clowns supported them thats a real good look yo ahahaha i aint a die hard wu fan either but i can tell you that there is not one filler track on raekwons new album its fire and the features were nasty with it if slaughterhoes had any brains they would dead joe buddens and swap him with nino bless at least bless is a great rapper
somebody needs to go outside
no one is trolling if i was trolling i would be hitting up every post i am making a point thats all my point is slaughterhoes was nothing much of anything they had their bigtime internet following who sticks up for them but obviously did not supprt them its actually quite sad for slaughterhoes
congratulations, you have successfully made the longest sentence ever. it’s called a period homie or maybe even a comma give your reader a break… i tired to read your rebuttal but couldn’t comprehend any of it.. try again.
so letssee here how many of you stanleys actually supported your little rap band and bought their slaughterhoes debut album and the answer is maybe 1 or 2 of you your all little boys and probably couldnt cop it cause mommy didnt give you allowance or wouldnt drive you to the local mall baha
Slaughterhouse… All the great rappers fuck with them
sorry smitty but you’re on your own on this one…
u seem to be more concerned with stuff that happens behind the scenes rather than the music itself. it sounds like you’re mad that they aint makin money, like some of that money was supposed to go to you.
oh yah…. SLAAAAAAAAAAAUGHTERHOUSE!
also i got one more beef with these wankstas whats the deal with their beat selection what a bunch of horrible production tracks there production on the album was dysgusting if they such great wrappers why cant they get decent production oh wayt maybe its because they all have been unsuccessful in the game have not sold many albums theirfore they aint kaked up theirfore they couldnt afford decent production so they went with some rich caucys who know how to use fruityloops shame shame agagaga thats me laughing at all the hype for a bust of an album
funny still all this time went by since my post and no one responded to mention that they bought their album and supported point proven my work is done here adios amigos see you in the funnys where the slaugterhoes belong
like i said….u aint makin money off them so why don’t u just MOVE ON. u act like everyone is forcing slaughterhouse down ur throat…
I heard they will sign with Shady, from a in house DJ (of Shady Records) right after Slaughterhouse hit Vegas during lollapalooza. Who knows though I don’t think a DJ has all the info, but time will tell.
So still not one of you have supported your boy band good internet following now u wanna knoe why they album flip flip flopped cuz they wick wick wack peace i am a grown folk i got grown folk things to do peace see yas l8r sorry for upseting you and hurting ur feelings stanleys
lmao @ u being a grown dude.
you’re either 15 or nino bless.
haha no shots fired @ nino bless
he’s probably reading this
rramrod… you just made me reading this whole shit show completely worth it…
“Royce has no flow”
Get. The Fuck Out. Now.
lmfao @ this troll smitty.
jesus christ if you’re gonna troll at least acknowledge that their solo careers are nothing like your first post.
christ I PRAY you are trolling because if you not you are a fucking moron.
sorry i had things to do besides respond to a dumbass on a blog, but i did buy the SH album just as i bought OB4CL2.
numbers dont make a album a bust or not, i bought the album and i perosnally think that the production fits the songs. is it great production no but its all good. lyrically and concept wise its a great album to me anyway
Damn smitty wrote a whole novel in the c-section about slaughterhouse. who’s the stan?
@Smitty
“Royce has no flow”
You can’t be serious cause that just showed how full of BS you are. Royce is one of the best MCs to ever touch the mic period. Records sales don’t define a rapper, quality does. It’s a shame people like you got that in reverse.
“Raekwon alone sold more then all of their albums”
Jay-Z sold more records in his career than Raekwon could ever hope to, so does his record sales ALONE make him a better rapper than Raekwon. NO
“I put my money of the fact that they never drop a second LP.”
This made me get a good laugh but I would put up real money and say they will drop a second LP.
You have to be the biggest stan I have ever seen. Like who in their right mind would post 12 times just to hate on Slaughterhouse. Take a deep breath and step away from the computer.
yo smitty is prolly saigon, all sour an shit that he got smashed by buddens, didnt get into slughterhouse, aint makin money, will never drop greatest story never told, and wont be signing to shady with them.
naw im kiddin, it could be him but i hope not cuz i am a fan. this smitty bitch either has a personal grudge against SH or is just some fukin 12 year old bitch ass white kid from the burbs who listens to other little bitches like lil wayne.
@Smitty
So hard to read anything you wrote. Just a wall of text
Smitty what the fuck lol…Are you going to publish this book you just posted up? Shit. You act like Crooked, Royce, Joey and Joell all gang-banged your chick. Damn, you are worse than a stan lol. I mean, cool you hate them, drop one line and be out. Don’t sit here and write a book.. Where’s your life at man? Are you mad that they are getting money? Are you mad that with only 22k records sold they got major labels trying to sign them? What is your gripe with these niggas, go wash the sand out your vagina and chuck the deuce.
Anyway, Slaughterhouse is doing some great for hip-hop. People need to wake up and reason it. Sooner you do, the easier it will be able to deal with.
I dropped a freestyle over this Forever beat already… check it out if you’re feeling generous haha http://www.zshare.net/audio/65966879c34348d8/

No matter how good you are, if your albums dont sell, you dont have a career. Just look at all the artists who are considered the greatest, all of them have had commercial success, something I seriously doubt Slaughterhouse as a group, or as solo artists will ever achieve
And can somebody point me to where there has been relevant news about major labels pursuing Slaughterhouse, or is that just some rumor?
Yo what anyone who got beef bring it. ALL RAP ARTISTS NOW ARE PRETTY RICKY WANNA BE THUGZ. I WILL GO AT U HARD…WHO WANT WHAT
@ Wu-Tang Is For The Children. What about Big L?
Alot of the reason Big L wasnt as successful is because Columbia had little to no promotion for his solo album and if I remember correctly it still sold pretty well for its lack of promotion, and the singles from it still reached top 25. You look at Slaughterhouse, and although they may have not had much promotion either, they still had ridiculous amounts of internet hype which didnt surface to anything
You just don’t understand how the game works today. Lyrics and a nice flow don’t sell, if you want to blow you have to craft and refine a gimmick and push it real hard to the labels. If you present something with a hot enough beat, simple too get lyrics, and a marketable gimmick YOU WILL BLOW. Although it’s ultimately the labels who decide if they can use you or not, and once you get that tv push…
yo smitty is a faggot word up
Sorry to obliterate your hopes that slaughterhoes are any good As you see I have truely hit a nerve with you stans Well you know what fellas the truth hurts sometimes Not everything in the world is pretty unfortunately for you your favorite rappers are all lames sorry for speaking the truth the best part about it is how all of you so called hip hop fans dont even support your artists the majority of you sticking up for this fugazzi foursome downloaded the album and never purchased it your pathetic thing about it you know it be true search deep in your hearts and trust is what you need please note I am not coming on some e-thugg isht I am just speaking on the truth however many of you only listen to what you listen to what the radio tells you what to listen to the industry has molded you into believing this cheezy bunch of throwaway rappers are any good as they say by me shalom understand yahweh dont even ask me to breakdown there single the “one” which is the lamest attempt to help promote a record these cats like crooked and royce live the gangster life only in rap music and not in real life on the other hand i am a powerful person and have business associates located throughout the world so trust me when i tell you none of these four so called rappers have any street cred again sorry to dissapoint why would they make a hypster single like the one ahaha i am laughing at the truth which that of you cannot accept
did u get jumped by slaughterhouse or somethin, this dude is going full on, you need yourself a girlfriend
yo smitty
bro chill out man if u wanted to make a point say it (with correct spelling of course) then go about your day… what your doing is shoving shit down throats on an internet page where no one can see you, and u say u gots a deal. even if u where to tell us who u are we KNOW your a 12 yr old on weezys dick or a grown man that failed kindergarten TWICE
wow i just typed like 2 paragraphs worth of shit and i get fuckin “page cannot displayed”
FUCK YOU AL GORE!
in all: smitty is right for the most part about their lack of success…they are 4 guys that have proven that even with all the attention in the world, you can still fail…they are great MCs (crook, royce, budden – i don’t see the atraction to joell) that will probably always get respect from true music fans and their hip-hop peers, but they’ll never sell jack
“I am just speaking on the truth however many of you only listen to what you listen to what the radio tells you what to listen to the industry has molded you into believing this cheezy bunch of throwaway rappers are any good” wow your a fucking retard smitty first you say they will never have a well respected career maybe not but they are pure fire but any way if the radio is telling us to listen to SH then that implies that they infact are success full dude second of all learn some spelling and some grammer half of what you said makes no sense what so ever and i could barely put it together no wonder you dont respect good hip hop with intelligent punch lines your fucking dumb why dont you stop being a child and stop pretending to be smart acceptance to your mental retardation is the best thing for you btw im sorry budden fucked your bitch thats too bad
@smitty…lmao!!!
It wouldve been dope to see them sign to shady but still gotta love Em for givin them some exposure tho.
Sidebar: Damn Shake, no heads up on the post? I was waitin on a email like “I guess he aint fuck with it” hahaha good lookin out tho
Damn, all the hate on these comments sections lately. Since when do #’s mean jack anyway – unless your name is on the check get off that ish. Someone said about Raekwon outselling them; he had a DOPE album & all Wu fans should’ve bought that, which makes millions of potentially downloaded albums there, since obviously they didn’t all BUY it. LMAO @ people comparing one rapper’s sales to another to prove a point.
Haha, Smitty uses no punctuation, but he’s a powerful businessman with a website that doesn’t load. LMAO.

“on the other hand i am a powerful person and have business associates located throughout the world so trust me when i tell you”
[...] during Eminem’s verse. Its nice to see lyrical cats out there supporting each other. Check out what was said by some of the members about the video, Em’s verse and a possible remi… Shit would be pretty epic, hopefully more epic than the Slaughterhouse album which I, after weeks [...]
