Yelawolf On Signing To Shady Records
In an interview with VIBE, Yelawolf discusses his sophomore set and how his deal with Shady Records came about.
“Keeping quiet was the hardest shit in the world, honestly. I was just so excited for a while. And everyone from my team who did know was really responsible about not letting it out. But I met with Eminem about four to five months ago in Detroit. Paul and Em flew me and my manager out to just kick it and get acquainted. From that meeting, I had no idea it would turn into this situation. I remember Paul was asking me about the meth problem in Alabama and I told him that I wrote ‘Pop The Trunk’ based off that issue. Next thing I know, Em starts rapping some of my lines from the song. I can’t even describe how that felt, I actually got super nervous. Em’s a real hip-hop fan, he knows about everything that’s going on.”
Just cause hes white
em probably needs a meth dealer
+ he ´s white
@Almart
What The Fuck, are you racist AND stupid!?
Shady has nothing but blacks, so does Def Jam, so does Aftermath, Interscope, Roca-wear etc.
Color has NOTHING to do with it.
Yelawolf is dope as Fawk! if you sleeping on a true artist because of his color, then you need to cut your ears Off because your not gonna use them anyways!!
Congrats Yela!!!
2011 is sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-shaaaaaaadddyyyyyyyy time!!
I THINK EM WAS FORCED TO SIGN HIM BECAUSE HE WAS WHITE AND HE SIGNED WITH INTERSCOPE JUS NEEDED TO GET HIM TO A SPECIFIC CAMP..AM HAPPY THO THAT IT WITH SHADY..CUZ THEY BOTH SPIT FAST SO THE TRACKS WILL BE HOT
SLAUGHTERHOUSEEEEEEE
I HAPPY FOR CATFISH BILLY. HE HELD IS OWN ON SONGS WITH RAEKWON,BUN B AND JUELZ

this dude sucks… overrated.
This is stupid niggaz still talking that black and white shit. “Just because he’s white” ??? yall for real?
50 – black, Obie – black, D12 – black, and the list goes on and on and on
now that he signs a white nigga its “because he’s white” lol fuck outta here
Shady We Winning!
i cant wait for a yela em collabo
*sigh* Damn I thought Hip-Hop IS color blind. Really? You’re going to disrespect everything Shady
helped create, better yet scratch that, develop from D12, G-Unit, Stat Quo, Obie Trice and Cashis?
Come on, be realistic here, I’ll keep it 100 with you folks, when I heard Yelawolf signed to Shady
My thoughts were he’s nice but i’ve never really “zero-in” on his lyrics. But, this is what Hip-Hop
is about letting your ears expand. You hear a lyric, you say “wow, hold up rewind that.” And I know
Yelawolf has that ability and now he will be on Shady records, he’s going to dig deep to NOT
disappoint Eminem. You heard what the man said “Em’s a real Hip-Hop fan…..” Take notice.
THIS IS A MOCKERY! ?CATFISH BULLSHIT? GARBAGE LIKE TRASH ON A SUNDAY SMMFH!!
I hate nigga who jump on the bandwagon just b/c he sign with shady.
EM IS GONNA SIGN KID HERE NEXT!

Black or white, always there are haters… Real recognize real, yelawolf was making great songs with a unique style, this year he will do better!!
I’m really happy Yela signed with Shady! he has a fresh sound and he’s never rapping/singing about emo shit like all the new cats.
Niggas keep thinking like ignorant monkeys and won’t understand this guy or his lyrics.
Eminem knows what’s up with this dude.
“Em starts rapping some of my lines from the song. ” What lines is Yela reffering to? anybody know?
I hope Yela does well on Shady as long as Em doesn’t produce his whooooole album it should be fine. A star is born!

So Slaughterhouse is a person now…?
I wonder if Eminem would have signed Slautherhouse if not for his previous relationship to Royce? But fuck all the speculation right? Who cares why he signed Yellawolf or Slautherhouse. I Just cant wait ’till Slaughterhouse’s new cd drops!!! SLAUGHTERHOUSE!!!!
His flow’s not great but he’s lyrically good.
And what did he think–that Em listens to pop??!
2011=Shady!!!!!!!!!
2011=Wayne year Cartar IV!
2011=Gooch & Waka Benjamin Flocka
@Word: Nigga you can’t even spell Carter right! #FAIL More evidence 2011 is the year for Shady Records & Dre!
A lil typo get it! Wayne=Carter IV
It’s always about race with you people huh? Yall some suckas man for real… He clearly signed him because it’s obviously going to bring a new fan base to hip-hop. You racist bitches can suck a fucking dick.
from a distance he does kind of look like Eminem.. lol i’m happy for this cracker
@the penguin, i agree em and yela will have good connection i think…i think em can go good with slaughterhouse and yela. he has such good chemistry when he raps with d12 like on devils night, and i think he can establish something like that with these new guys
