Takes

[Tash8]

How many takes do you guys think em takes when he does his song, i'm sure it's not many..

cuz when i see his live videos he sounds almost exact same as in tracks which is weird cuz in a studio you got better equipment and you take a lot of takes...

i'm just wondering, cuz i haven't seen many people sing live like they do on tracks like eminem does.

how many agree?

[Tash8]

lol thanks

yea em smoking 2 much lol jk.. anyways well yea its hard singing more than a few songs without getting tired. but when he does spit a song like on mtv, or awards or shit he usually basicly spits it the same way like on a track wwith hardly any mistakes..

and btw everyone knows proof and eminem together are monsters and they help each otheer.

yeah like maybe said. from what I know. when eminem does those tounge twister verses like in 40 oz. he has to record the other verses and stuff at another time. the only reapper I know that can actually rap fast and sound like he never takes a breath is Tech N9ne. he has hella breath control.

[L!am]

I can't be certain but I don't reckon it's much most of the time cos his live performances are always pretty good and sound similar to the album tracks and he doesn't need too much help with words when he's out of breath. Also, remember that he'd use a lot more energy on stage cos he's moving around a lot more, while in the studio he'd be standing on the spot all the time.

I think i read somewhere that he never re-does his verses, so to keep the ferocity or somethin like that.

But that might just apply to his old stuff or somethin

if u realise most rappers have always a bit of help form an other one while on concert
an MC is neva alone he always has someoen givin im a hand

[Tash8]

^ yes but it seems that the other rappers up wid him doesn't spit 2 much but just emphasize the rhymes.

i coulda sworn in one of his songs he says he only has one take for every song. its obviously a joke, but still

Did you guys ever hear about how in an interview he answered that sometimes he does a lot of takes ..." Like if I say the word "the" wrong, I'll go back and do it over again"-Eminem

How do you know how many takes it took him to spit business and lose yourself? just curious.

Il answer your question with a fact... sometimes he takes alot, like in songs like buisness, and sometimes a whole verse without any, like in loose yourself... it all depends, everybody has days wheretheir voice allows them more than it did yesterday...

oh, and about the live shows, watch anger managment, eminem gets tired after 2 songs, and starts losing his breath, thats what proof was their for, to spit a few words while em takes a breath.... (using ad libs as a cover up, all rappers do that)

[Tash8]

he said it himself that he only took one take on lose yourself

[bfence]

Where? Is this shit on youtube? You know what the interview is called? again curious.

he said it himself that he only took one take on lose yourself
