Eminem - Shady 2.0 Cypher (Uncut)
Artist: Eminem
Featuring: Slaughterhouse , Yelawolf
Producer: East Flatbush Project
Album: 2011 BET Awards (Promo)
Label: Shady/Aftermath/Interscope
Missed the 2011 BET Awards Tuesday night? Confused about why everyone on Twitter is saying “Hi” to Rihanna all of a sudden? DJBooth.net has your back—today, we’re proud to present one of the highlights of the evening, and the Rosetta Stone to the latest ridiculous hashtag meme, all in one dope package. One of eight rhyme sessions to take place over the course of the broadcast the Shady 2.0 Cypher finds Em gathering up five of his mic-murdering-est colleagues to deliver lyrical fire over East Flatbush Project’s spare, shamisen-sampled Tried By 12 beat. Gadsden, Alabama-repping Booth fave Yelawolf heads off the pack, showcasing his head-spinning flows and his product-placement skills (“I’m out this b*tch drinking Sprite by the 2-liter”) before ceding the mic to the lyrical bruisers of Slaughterhouse. After Budden, Crook, Joell and Royce (the latter of whom delivers the famous RiRi shout-out), Em takes center stage to deliver a climactic closing verse just as crass, clever and lyrically dextrous as you’d expect. While Shady’s contribution is a show-stopper, I’ll give Booth readers the final say on how each spitter stacked up. Ready…set… debate!

Probably my favorite cypher this year. Royce's "Hi Rihanna" line had me laughing the whole time lol.

 This is CRAZY in every way possible! The production is sick and minimal, perfect for the MC's on this track. Eminem is the Best Rapper in the Game and you can easily hear why. Joe went in hard too! This is a BANGER!

I'm usually not a big freestyle fan, sorry I'm not a rapper, but I couldn't stop listening to this. Wow, been an Em fan since the Slim Shady EP, started listening to Yela and Slaughterhouse, except Royce, about a year and a half ago, and they all amaze me.
