"I'm not trying to be on some self-centered, but, yeah, the Shady cypher... First of all I had never seen Eminem in a BET Cypher & I was just as much of as fan as the people in the audience watchin' him do his thing and operate, you know what I'm sayin'. So it was just dope to see that. And the man gave 'em about 50-60 bars...
And any time, you know, somebody on that level of success, can write classics like "Lose Yourself," and then come down to the underground, put his hoodie on and still bar niggas out, you gotta salute that. That was a dope moment in hip-hop and I think everybody - specifically the mainstream artists can learn from that."

Joell Ortiz:
"When I think about standout moments being in the cypher, it's being with Eminem. I mean, you know, he's if not THE best, one of THE best lyricists ever. Just to be in the cypher with him, it was incredible - standing there being a fan all while being an artist. And I was trying to juggle the two, like, "Whoo! This is tough." But, I'll never forget that.
We got a chance - Slaughterhouse - to work with him on our album and stuff like that bit it ain't quite the same as being in a rap cypher with Eminem..."
