You're not going to hit it every single time, and that's why, when I record an album, I do probably close to 50 songs. Each song I record has to get better. If it's not better than the last song that I made, it'll usually linger for a couple of months, and then it'll be put on the backburner, and then there'll be another song that I do, and then it often doesn't make it on the album.
EminemI don't know if I ever feel totally great about a record when I put it out. With every record that I put out, someone has literally got to come pry it from me because when I listen to my own music, I just hear flaws in it.
EminemI try not to look at it that way. Being white. I don't wake up every day and look in the mirror, 'Oh. I'm white.'
EminemI just can't sit back and wallow, In my own sorrow, but I know one fact: I'll be one tough act to follow.
