Eminem's new album The Marshall Mathers LP 2 is now in stores. One of the songs people have been talking about is "The Monster" featuring Rihanna.
Slim sat down with Sway Calloway to talked about why he picked her to sing the hook on the record.
"The kind of mood of the record. I felt like as soon as I got the beat, it was like I just heard her on it," Eminem said. "I think people look at us both like we're a little nuts. That's one of the things I was telling her in making the record. I think people look at us a little crazy."
Eminem's manager, Paul Rosenberg, said we can expect a music video for the song at some point in the future.

STAR talks his new favorite football player Richie Incognito, looking for a new webmaster for Shot97.com, the Mayor of Toronto, Canada (Rob Ford) allegedly smoking crack cocaine.

Considered a radio pioneer by many, STAR has set precedents on the urban landscape and was recently inducted into News One's "Top 20 Black Radio Jockeys Of All Time."
STAR & BUC WILD made the national stage on MTV (1999) but it was their radio show on New York's Hot 97 and Power 105 (2000 - 2006) that secured their place in Hip-Hop history.
Torain's resume includes The Source magazine, MTV Networks, Hot 97, Power 104.1, Power 105.1, Pulse 87, Hip-Hop Weekly magazine, Vladtv, Thisis50, 100.3 The Beat, shot97.com and VH1 (The Gossip Game).

Here's a battle between Uno Lavoz vs. Purpose for their recent World Domination 4 event.
Always a fan favorite, Uno Lavoz's career has seen him move from a heavily joke focused emcee, to a hard hitting punchline rapper, and now to a solid mix of humor and bars that appeals to a much more universal audience. The Philadelphia, PA battle rapper earned his stripes in Grindtime in which he worked his way through a slew of lower ranked opponents before gaining notoriety on the King of the Dot stage. Now an internally renowned battler, Uno has traveled across the world to countries such as England and Australia, with resume including opponents Henry Bowers, Nils M/ Skils, Jonny Storm, and Madness. Back in Toronto for his third World Domination, Uno Lavoz steps up against one of the best Australian battlers to do it, Purpose.
Despite not having been as active as some of his battle rapping compatriots, Purpose has an already established reputation as one of Australia's best. First making a name for himself during the World Rap Championships with partner Prime, Purpose worked with his teammate to tear through the competition before losing to the eventual Australian champions, 360 and Anecdote. Despite not making it to the final brackets, the Aussie team turned more than a few heads, putting themselves on the battle rap map in a big way. Since then, Purpose has jumped into the ring a select few times, challenging veterans in the game such as The Saurus and Dirtbag Dan. Making his overseas debut in King of the Dot, Purpose takes on Uno Lavoz in this next release from WD4.

"I was counting on you to count me out as Asher Roth/When he round-a-bout dissed me to shout me out. Thought I was history/But goddamn, honkey, that compliment's like backhanding a donkey/Good way to get your ass socked in the mouth. Man off it" - Eminem "A$$hole."
No Eminem album would be complete without some controversy and sharp edged lyrics aimed at someone who has managed to get on his nerves.
On Slim's forthcoming album, The Marshall Mathers LP 2, he appears to take a shot at Asher Roth.
Hot 97's Peter Rosenberg addressed the issue today on "The Realness."
"White on white crime, you know it's gotta stop. Guys I've told you forever that white people in the game do not like other white people getting on in the game. As evidenced by the list of white rappers I have personally hated on," Peter said. "That's why I'm disappointed, but I'm not surprised to hear that the legend Eminem has dissed my man Asher Roth. And to make it even worse he used the dreaded h-word. Asher wasn't even ever dissing Eminem. Asher thought it was so tight that Eminem actually bigged him up back in the day, now he's turned around and dissing him. But in dissing Asher Roth did he choose to diss the best of all the other white rappers? I'm telling yo Mac Miller's tight, Bronson's phenomenal, but Asher Roth is a rapper's rapper. He can rap. So much so, that I hope Asher fires back at the rap God."
Should Asher reply? Let us know what you think in the comment section below.

"Broly", an alleged member of the Knights Templar Cartel, posing for a selfie with his handgun.
Pics After The Jump
Mexican drug cartels are becoming increasingly more sophisticated. In addition to developing more efficient ways to track their product, the cartels have tunnels equipped with lighting, ventilation and electric rail systems.
One such tunnel that stretched from Tijuana to San Diego was shut down by U.S. authorities last week.
The cartels are also using blogs, YouTube, Twitter and Facebook to track down and intimidate rivals, post pics of drug hauls and attempt to rehabilitate their negative public images.
According to Vice, Antoine Nouvet from the Canadian research organization, the SecDev Foundation, has uncovered a treasure trove of evidence that shows a connection between social media and the cartels.
SecDev has been working with the Igarapé Institute on a project called the Open Empowerment Initiative. The project tracks "how cyberspace is empowering individuals and rewiring relations in Latin America."
"They advertise their activities, they conduct public relations initiatives, and they have basically turned themselves into their own media company," says Nouvet. "Colombia's cartel groups or drug traffickers in Myanmar in the 1990s were very sophisticated at public relations, but they didn't have this massive broadcasting platform."
SecDev and Igarape have kept a particularly close eye on Knights Templar Cartel (Caballeros Templarios in Spanish).
Knights Templar Cartel leader "La Tuta"
Led by a man known as La Tuta, the Knights Templar Cartel now ranks third behind the Zetas and Sinaloa Cartel, according to InsightCrime.

The Knights Templar Facebook page
The Knights Templar Facebook page appears to have been taken down. But one of their members appeared to have been very active.
Broly posted photos of himself and associates brandishing weapons. Pics of vehicles loaded with weed have also been posted.

With promotion for The Marshall Mathers LP 2 in full swing Eminem lands on the cover Complex's December 2013/January 2014 issue.
Slim talks about the decision to make this album a sequel, what it was like working with Rick Rubin and more.
Interview by Noah Callahan-Bever. Photography by Daniel Hastings
What does The Marshall Mathers LP mean to you?
Eminem: It doesn’t mean shit to me. [long pause] [Laughs.] Nah, I mean, I don’t know. I guess it’s just a feeling that I associate with that time period.
When did you decide that this would be a sequel?
When I started recording this album, a lot of the songs that I would play for people, they were saying it reminded them of that era. Which was kinda what I was going for in the first place, but the fact that other people started taking notice made sense.
It’s revisiting some themes on The Marshall Mathers LP, but it’s obviously a different time period in my life. So that’s why I wouldn’t call it a sequel. A sequel would just be a continuation of everything that was on there.
What themes are you revisiting in particular?
Um… [long pause] certain things, man. I’m trying to think if I can answer this. And I’m retarded, so…. On the first Marshall Mathers LP there were some personal things that I addressed and on this record there are some chapters that I wanted to close. This isn’t Recovery, where I was coming off some personal tragedies. I’m not coming off of a drug overdose. It’s more about going back to the basics of hip-hop and some fundamentals in that sense.
Recovery has very personal moments on it but it deals narrowly with your addiction. The Marshall Mathers LP dealt more with your personal relationships. Do you feel more comfortable revisiting those now after having addressed your demons?
Yeah, I don’t know. A lot of my career I put a lot of my life out there. It was personal shit I would put out there and didn’t really give a fuck. Sometimes I think back and I’m like, “Damn, was I doing the right thing? How much of myself do I wanna put out there?’ In one aspect you want your fans to feel like they know you and connect with you. But then you’re like, ’Man I got nothing to myself no more.” I don’t want to give away how personal this shit is going to get.
Putting the title MMLP2 on this album ups the expectation for the fans. Did that weigh on you at all?
I don’t even know how to answer that question because I don’t want to say, like, “That album was the shit….” But I do feel like to call it that, it would have to live up to a certain standard.
People generally regard that album as the sh*t. [Laughs.] You sold a few copies and changed pop music. I don’t think anybody would find that vain.
I just don’t know how to say that though. I don’t feel comfortable saying that. [Laughs.]
At what point did Rick Rubin get introduced to the situation?
About a third of the way in. I’ve always admired Rick and what he’s done. The way he’s able to jump from different genres of music and be a master at all of them has fucked my head up for so long. Paul said he might be interested in working with me and when Yoda wants you to come see him, you gotta go see Yoda. So me and Paul went out to L.A. to see what the vibe was like. Me being a fan of his for so long and seeing his track record—from being a kid, records he’s produced with LL and his whole body of work—I’m meeting Rick for the first time so I’m a little nervous. Absolutely. And super flattered that he would even want to work with me. By his vibe being so chill and so mellow, that opened us both up to be able to create together. We had a conversation and got in the studio and started fucking around.
We’ve all seen him on the couch with his shoes off. Can you maybe give us some insight as to what it was like to work with him as a producer? Is it coaching you or is it actually working on beats or just talking out feelings?
All of that. It’s all three things: Guiding. Trying sh*t out. F*ckin’ programming drums and “Do you like this? Do you like that?”
What is the most significant thing Rick said to you as a coach?
He always said: “Try everything.” Whenever there was an idea, no matter how ridiculous it sounded or if it sounded wack at first, his whole theme was, “There’s nothing we shouldn’t try. If it doesn’t work, we’ll know it.” Me and him on a lot of these songs would have the same ear that if we tried something on a track, we both instantly knew at the same time that it didn’t work. There wasn’t much fighting for something. Rick has a very let-shit-happen-organically attitude. So the instant I’m not feeling something that he puts in a track, nine times out of ten he would take it out. “It obviously doesn’t work. There’s some reason you’re not feeling it.” So that’s one of the things that makes him so great, too. If he’s hooking the beat up, I can sit there with the pen writing something and be like, “Ahh, I don’t know if I’m really feeling this one.” He’ll say, “OK, move on.”
This record was the first time in a while that I actually started producing records again myself. Nothing on Relapse and very little on Recovery was produced by me. So that was one of the fun things to be able to do again: Get in there and make beats from scratch with Luis Resto and just see what we come up with. It felt good to be able to put the producer hat on again.
